We planned to sit on the beach and enjoyed the sea. But even it's April now, the weather is already so hot as in summer. The sun was burning, so we only stayed in the pavilion and just enjoyed the sea far away. Of course only a few people are on the beach in this heat.
In fact it's a wrong decision to go to the beach early because when we got back home, we found the skin burned by the sunshine, red and a little painful. So next time we will go late in the afternoon. 8)

The same here. I used an umbrella and I spent the last 2 days 99% under some shadow - trees, buildings or inside. But now I am with a red-dark tan. ???

Thank you for the memories. I have been to Eze and it is magnificent. It has been described as an “eagle's nest” because of its location overlooking a high cliff 427 metres (1,401 ft) above sea level on the French Mediterranean.
The Cathedral in Milan you just stand in front of it in awe. The Gothic cathedral took nearly six centuries to complete and I think it is about the 4th largest cathedral in the world.
Doesn't Colmar look so beautiful with the potplants hanging from the windows. It is just so European.

Burg Eltz, Germany
Burg Eltz is one of the Best Preserved Castles in Germany.
It is a castle near the Mosel River in Trier and Koblenz. The castle is still owned by the same family branch that owned it in the 12th century. 33 generations have passed this castle on to the next generation. 1/3rd of the castle is still being used.
The castle was originally intended as a fortified residence, not as a fortress. It has been attacked once, but never taken. Years ago, French soldiers went up and down the Mosel River burning castles. Since Burg Eltz can’t be seen from the river, it was overlooked.
Though surrounded by wars, Burg Eltz hidden in the mountains was never destroyed, like a castle out from the fairy tale. Will you have the honor to encounter a modern fairy tale here?

Flintstone house, Malibu, California
"I want to live in retirement!" Maybe you said so, I think.
The house is situated on a remote headland, Malibu and just minutes from the beach below. It’s called the Flintstone house because it is made of stone like the Flintstone movie. The house offers a stunning panorama of the Pacific Ocean, Channel Islands, Boney Mountain, Serrano Valley, and Los Angeles. Exceptional residence includes one bedroom, two bathrooms, kitchen fully functional Neolithic cavemen and decorations throughout. The inside of the Stone Age-style pad associated with the beauty of the exterior by large expanses of glass is located in a natural surrounding irregularly shaped, rimless and organic in appearance, where the tantalizing sea and mountain views can be absorbed.
I want to be a hermit living here when I see this house :P

Swallow's Nest Castle
the castle of love in Crimea
The castle in my dreams, isolation, with sea breeze...
Swallow's Nest Castle sits atop a steep cliff overlooking the Black Sea, in the Crimean Peninsula of southern Ukraine. The imitation-Gothic structure was built in the late19th century and stands a few miles south of the city of Yalta.
The legend of Swallow’s Nest goes to the medieval times. Once the famous Russian general brought a beautiful captive from war. In honor of his last the most romantic love he built the unusual castle over sea abyss for the girl. It is unknown, if the girl loved the general, but once, when the famous warrior returned from the battle bleeding, wounded, but alive, he did not find his beloved there. Maybe she escaped with Turkish smugglers or jumped to the sea abyss, having not awaited her general, who knows?
There are actually a lot of swallows and white-winged seagulls near the Castle of Love. If you bend over the balcony and look down, it seems that you also turn into the bird, who flies to the blue height, to red sun on the morning horizon having touched water with its wing. Probably due to this the name "Swallow’s Nest" caught on the medieval castle on Avrorianska rock of Ai-Todor cape, which has become the brightest emblem of Crimea.

Playa Carate, Costa Rica
Playa Carate, Peninsula de Osa, Costa Rica. Five-percent of the world's biodiversity is in this place, a perfect paradise on Earth. Somehow, someone built this house there. Loaded with green technology, it's not only pretty but 100% self-sufficient.
Created by Robles Arquitectos, the house is so isolated from civilization that it has no access to public power cables, sanitation, or water. For the latter, the house uses water from the forest, which also serves as a power source thanks to two low-impact hydroelectric turbines that crank 800kWh. In addition to the generators, the roof can provide up to 10,800kWh of electricity thanks to its panels. Additional panels heat up the water. http://gizmodo.com/5917216/the-five-most-relaxing-houses-where-you-would-like-to-be-right-now

Henderson Waves, Singapore
Henderson Waves is the highest pedestrian bridge in Singapore (36 metres above Henderson Road). It connects the Mount Faber and Telok Blangah Hill. At a height of 36 metres, Henderson Waves bridge is the tallest pedestrian bridge in Singapore that stretches 300 metres across a chain of greenery.
The bridge has a unique wave-form made up of seven undulating curved steel “ribs” that alternately rise over and under its deck. The curved “ribs” form alcoves that function as shelters with seats within.
Slats of yellow balau wood, an all-weather timber found in South-East Asia, are used in the decking.
The wave-forms will be lit with attractive LED light, giving the bridge an illuminative glow.
In my opinion, Henderson Bridge looks more like a dragon, disc interactive in the southern forest and the forest is always habitat for dragon.

Baroque Church St George
The baroque church Sveti Jurij was probably build in the 12th century and was consecrated in 1344. It is situated on a hill from which you have a nice view on the city and the coast. Next to the church is the Campanile which was build 1608 and is one of the town’s landmarks. It’s a smaller copy of the St Marco campanile of Venice. From there is a street up to the city wall which you’ll see from the church, but it was a hot day and we didn’t feel like climbing up anymore! Another path goes along the shore, down to the beach.

Shennongjia
Shennongjia is situated in western Hubei Province, covering an area of over 3,000 square kilometers. The special terrain here creates a warm and humid climate, making it a paradise for plants and animals at the meeting point of North and South China.
Known as "The Oriental Botanic Garden" and the natural gene bank of biological species, it shelters some of the world’s rare or endangered plants and animals, such as Chinese dove trees, South China tigers, white bears and white snakes.
Shennongjia is the "Sacred Green Land" in people's minds, where a primitive natural ecology is well preserved. In 1986 with the approval of the State Council, Shennongjia became “The National Nature Reserve of Forests and Wild Animal Species”.
In 1990, UNESCO accepted it into the protection network of "Man and Biosphere". In 1992, it was selected as the "Demonstration of Natural Reserve of Bio-diversity" by the United Nations Development Program.
(http://www.cnhubei.com/images/200502/20050125-4shnj.jpg)
The tourist resources provide an array of attractions: the primitive forests, mountains and valleys, brooks and waterfalls, rare animals and plants, as well as the mysterious “wild men”. A trip to Shennongjia can be done with various focuses: scientific research and study, adventures, sightseeing and holidays, as well as skiing and snow fun.
There are over twenty major scenic spots in Shennongjia, including Fengjingya, Hongping Valley, Shennong Top, Source of Fragrant Brook and Dajiu Lake.
Shennong Top, known as the first peak in central China, is 3105.4 meters above sea level, where traces of ancient floods can still be seen through the mountain top, the slope, the uneven surface, the exposed huge rocks, and many pebbles.
Fengjingya is a dream-like place with many spectacular views: changing clouds and mist, exotic stone poles and stone peaks, and magnificent mountains reflected in the lucid water. http://www.cnhubei.com/200502/ca677332.htm

It’s not Provence in France, It’s Ili in Xinjiang, China.
When talking about lavender, the two world-famous lavender producing places may just pop into your mind – Provence in Southeast France and Furano in Hokkaido, Japan. However, Provence and Hokkaido are a bit far for me. And there is another home of lavender that takes up 3,000 sq mi in Northwestern China. It has been called – Ili (Yili in Pinying).
There is a saying that you’ve no idea of how large China is until you go to Xinjiang and you shall not know how beautiful Xinjiang is without going to Ili.
The climate of Ili is similar to Provence. And its lavender fields is about 90% of the total lavender planting area in China. Every July, Ili will just become a sea of lavender!
The Crystal blue sky is hanging over waves of purple lavender. And the white poplar is the symbol of Xinjiang.
I thought heaven is somewhere far far away, but it turns out that I am actually in heaven…

Mono Lake, California
Mono Lake, located in eastern California, is the second largest lake in California. Mono Lake is near Yosemite National Park, close to the Sierra Nevada, about 60 square miles. Because it is remote, few people know it. It is one of the oldest lakes in North America and there is no exit of the lake. Because of evaporation and therefore a lot of salt left, the salinity is more than twice the average seawater, known as the Dead Sea in California.

About Tbilisi
(http://www.laxmidhaul.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/DSC02368-150x150.jpg)
http://www.laxmidhaul.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/DSC02368-150x150.jpg
One of the most beautiful sunsets I have witnessed recently was in the city of Tbilisi . The breeze wafted across us as we watched the sun set on a warm balmy evening whilst we were dining in a restaurant situated on a cliff . Below we could see the Mtkvari river as it passed us having meandered through the city. We were in the heart of Tbilissi – the capital of Georgia, a country famous for vineyards, folk dancing, banquets and sulfur baths. Infact the name Tbilisi is derived from the ancient Georgian word ‘Tbili’ meaning warm. Numerous sulphuric hot springs that dot the city give it its name!
Through the centuries Georgias famous hospitality and warmth has withstood attacks from numerous invaders – from the Mongols and Persians to the Ottoman Turks. The Georgians maintained their culture and identity even though their country was incorporated into both the Russian empire and the Soviet Union. Say the word “Russia” today and the Georgians do not smile, they have fought for their independence valiantly. We were told by our hosts that ‘after various attempts (some of them violent) Georgia got independence as recently as 1990’. Inspite of its violent history, Georgia as a nation has held on to its unique cultural traditions. Today Tbilisi its capital is a beautiful city bustling with restaurants, clubs, shops and galleries.
From our table we had a breathtaking view of several churches built in the Greek orthodox style and the mountains of Georgia. It was a little dark inside the restaurant but the stage at the end was brightly lit up and we soon witnessed several Georgian traditional folk dances. Beautifully dressed dancers in their traditional Georgian regional dress swayed to the accompaniment of live folk music , each dance lasting eight to ten minutes.
This was our first trip to Georgia and our group of 12 were seated on a long table which was almost groaning with the food laden on it . Large bowls of beautiful fresh fruit were surrounded by an assortment of atleast 10 different salads. If I remember correctly there must have been Assorted pickles (cherries, green tomatoes, pickles, peppers), Marinated mushrooms, Black Olives,Georgian salad, Greek Salad (with cheese and olives), Eggplant with walnut, Green Beans with walnut, Spinach with walnut, Cabbage rolls with walnut, a large variety of cheeses and delicious red caviar.
We were served Georgian wine and soon after whilst we were feasting on the several salads, the host of the evening got up to give a toast. He thanked us for being there that evening and hoped that we would enjoy their hospitality and we all raised our glasses ! My husband the leader of our group also offered an appropriate toast on our behalf. Having arrived that day, hungry and new to the Georgian banquet traditions we immediately wolfed down our salad with the local bread . We tasted everything, thinking that this was a remarkable meal where everything was laid upfront. This was our first day in the country and we soon realised that what we were witnessing was no normal meal. We had not known that we were to witness the Georgian ceremonial dinner known as the ‘supra’ – a highly ritualized event where rounds of standardized and improvised toasts alternated with the serving of warm dishes well into the early morning !
The first warm course was the traditional Khachapuri, which was like a pizza made out of dough, cheese and butter. This was accompanied by Red Beans in pots, similar to an Indian curry Rajma made out of kidney beans. Dolma (stuffed grape leaves), Chakhokhbili (chicken in tomato sauce) , Chanakhi (lamb with vegetables, eggplant, potato, tomato) and roast chicken. Our Indian palates relished the delicate sauces and sharp spices of the Georgian cuisine. We were also entertained by our local friends who willingly furnished us with snippets of information such as – “ The Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin was born in Georgia but he gave no support to Georgias attempts to win national independence from the USSR ” or “ George Bush visited Georgia and had a sulphur bath and the nearby restaurant he visited is now named after him !”
This was followed by another toast. By this time our host and toast master Mr Baker, knew all our names and had something nice to say about each of us . The lovely wine and grape brandy that we were toasting with and all delicious food in our stomachs put us in great spirits ! We all swore total allegiance to Georgia and promised to foster close ties with the country. Luckily we had amongst us a fellow guest who was familiar with the customs and rituals of the ‘supra’ feast. He told us tactfully that it was not necessary that we eat all the food presented in front of us. To the contrary it was considered a mark of dishonour if the table appeared empty after a guest had eaten , as that signified there was not enough food on the table! That was an important snippet of information – what a relief !
Another dance, more toasting this time on the popularity of Indian (Hindi) cinema and a special mention that all the pretty young Indian girls present in our group looked like Hindi cinestars and those not so young ( such as me ) vaguely resembled the Bollywood ( Bombay equivalent of Hollywood) heroines of yesteryear! It was interesting to observe that many of the senior Georgians loved Hindi cinema and the Indian culture. “We all love Raj Kapoor” they said. Raj Kapoor our beloved fair complexioned, blue eyed doyen of hindi cinema, who had made several movies featuring Russian heroines in the 70’s .
More wine, more food , this time mushrooms with sour cream and mozzarella, Fried Trout, Fried potatoes with mushroom, Chicken shish-kebab and Lamb shish-kebab.
Finally our host rose up to give his final toast. He said ‘This time, this toast was going to be a toast with a difference” , he was going to “sing” the toast to us. So the very charming and charismatic Mr Baker rose , walked up to the stage , took the mike and started singing Frank Sinatras
“Strangers in the night, exchanging glances, strangers in the night wondering what their chances ……doo be doo be doo….” . An old favourite with my husband, the song lured him on the stage as he joined our host Mr Baker. Their voices blended beautifully with each other. Everyone clapped and this was followed by much embracing and back slapping. To our relief no more food was served to us.
Finally our host sat down and informed us that as a special surprise for us the DJ for the evening was going to play an Indian song that we would all enjoy. We waited expectantly , confident that he would play a contemporary movie song . We waited in pin drop silence waiting whilst the DJ searched on his laptop. In the mean while another round of food – this time our dessert was served to us, ice cream and a special custard . Finally the DJ found the song he was searching for. The lights were dimmed, and we waited.
To our utter surprise we heard the sounds of our Indian national anthem being played! The DJ was not aware that the song he was playing was the Indian national anthem! “ Jana gana mana…..” He had only read the name of the artist “ A R Rehman” , the famous Indian music composer and artist who had recently shot to international fame when he won an Oscar for the music he composed in the film ‘Slum Dog Millionaire’. Once the beautiful stylised version of the Indian national anthem started all the Indians in the restaurant stood to attention. Gradually other diners followed suite and everyone stood up in respect. The DJ was totally bewildered , what he thought would be lively music to finish the party had actually turned out to be the Indian National anthem! It was a joyous occasion and another reason for more vodka – the final toast! This time our generous host Mr Baker thanked us for our patience , acceptance of their hospitality, and understanding !
It was a special and wonderful evening in Tbilisi, a cherished memory we brought back to India with us !

Park Guell Barcelona
One of the most famous parks in Barcelona is of course the Park Guell, or Parc Güell in Catalan, located at the hill El Carmel in de district of Gracia in Barcelona.
(http://www.perfecttravelblog.com/parc%2520g%25C3%25BCell%2520barcelona.jpg)
http://www.perfecttravelblog.com/parc%2520g%25C3%25BCell%2520barcelona.jpg
The Park Guell was built from 1900 to 1914 by the famous Antoni Gaudi originally for the industrialist Count Eusebi Güell, as a housing site with many villas and buildings with a wonderful architecture.
There are different entries, but if you start at the main entrance to the Park Güell Barcelona, you immediately see the colorful dragon or lizard statue designed by Gaudi at the stairs leading upstairs to a terrace. This is said to be the most photographed part of Barcelona! There is also a fountain with little fish in it.
If you follow the stairs you find the famous terrace in the Park Guell Barcelona, the main point of the park. From this terrace you have an amazing view over the city of Barcelona and the sea. Sometimes music is played on the terrace and you can enjoy dancing in the Park Guell.
But you can also enjoy the famous Barcelona weather during your Barcelona holidays! The whole terrace is designed beautifully with mosaics on all walls. Be sure to look at them when you are visiting the Park Güell in Barcelona!
There are also different ways and footpaths you should follow to see the statues supporting the terrace walls! There are designed like trees and really beautiful. Also the footpaths leading away from the terrace and more around the hill should not be missed if you truly want to experience the Park Guell!
There are many wonderful plants and trees at the sides of the paths, leading to little stairs and fountains, to a place with benches and tables for a picknick or to two other buildings which fit wonderful in the park. If you walk long enough, you can also reach the forest area, which is more wild but also beautiful to wander in.
To get best to the Park Güell Barcelona and experience an unforgettable stay during your Barcelona holidays, you can best use the metro. Take the green L3 and step out at Lesseps or the yellow L4 until Alfons X (which is actually located directly at another park, the Parc de les Aigües) and then head towards the park.
However, be prepared for a strenuous walk for about 20 minutes up the hill before you reach the Park Güell. However, I have a nice tip for you: If you take the L3 green line and step out at Vallcarca (near the Parc del Turó del Putget), and then head directly towards the Park Guell, you will find some escalators leading to a site entrance of the park. http://www.perfecttravelblog.com/2010/10/park_guell_barcelona.html
Someone once said: Even Gaudí only designed Park Guell in his life, it's enough to let him go down in history. Because the time has certificate Park Guell is a legend created by Gaudi, a never old utopia.

Cardiff Castle, Wales
Cardiff Castle is one of the top attractions in the capital city of Wales. Located in Cardiff, this historic structure has its roots in the Norman era, though the site has seen nearly 2,000 years of significant human activity. The Romans actually erected a forum on the site of Cardiff Castle, and the Norman-built shell that remains today was founded centuries later in 1091. As is true of the history of many other castles, the history of Cardiff Castle includes a few major renovations, so what you actually see today is a fascinating mix of architectural styles and structures.
The exterior is a decline through the vicissitudes of life, only when you go into it and find the decoration and furnishings in the old rooms elegant and gorgeous, stunning, worthy of its cost 100 years. There is plenty to see inside Cardiff Castle as well. The gothic revival fireplace is dazzling, for example, and the immaculate craftsmanship and splendor of the Arab Room Ceiling is hard to deny. Also found inside this fantastic historic attraction are a pair of museums that focus on military history, and it warrants a short visit at the least. Much of the interior features of Cardiff Castle have a Victorian design, as they were created by the William Burges, who was among the chief architects of the era.http://www.destination360.com/europe/uk/cardiff-castle

In Malta, the Popeye movie was filmed in 1980. On this occasion a small village was built while Anchor Bay was a backdrop. In the film, Popeye Nuefundland was discovered and called it 'Sweet Haven'.
The village is still there, it lies north-west and is unfortunately very difficult to achieve. In the houses there are beautiful dolls and decorations constructed. The whole is something more for children than adults.

Ta Prohm Temple, Cambodia
Ta Prohm temple is also known as the Tomb Raider temple in the Angkor complex, Cambodia.
Ta Prohm is the modern name of a temple at Angkor, Siem Reap Province, Cambodia, built in the Bayon style largely in the late 12th and early 13th centuries and originally called Rajavihara. Located approximately one kilometre east of Angkor Thom and on the southern edge of the East Baray, it was founded by the Khmer King Jayavarman VII as a Mahayana Buddhist monastery and university. Unlike most Angkorian temples, Ta Prohm has been left in much the same condition in which it was found: the photogenic and atmospheric combination of trees growing out of the ruins and the jungle surroundings have made it one of Angkor’s most popular temples with visitors. http://www.filination.com/blog/2011/01/22/ta-prohm-tomb-raider-temple-angkor/

This National Park is a red, arid desert, punctuated with oddly eroded sandstone forms such as fins, pinnacles, spires, balanced rocks, and arches.

Blue Hole, Bahamas
The blue holes in Bahamas look like a fantasy underworld where the colors are beautifully mixed up. The deepest one called Dean’s Blue Hole is 202 meters deep (663 ft.). Too bad only professionals can explore it and enjoy the beauty of the blue underwater caves. Other beauties of the underwater that everyone can visit are the fabulous Red Sea Star restaurant in Israel, located 6 meters under the sea.
In the Ice Age, the hole was a dry cave system entrance. After melting glaciers and rising sea levels, the caves were flooded and became a Holy Land of many brave divers. Today, the Blue Hole is famous for its sponges, barracuda, corals, angelfish, and a group of sharks patrolling often at the edge of the hole.

Dunnottar was in use many centuries before any of the remaining buildings were erected. It was the site of one of Scotland's first churches and remained an important Christian site for many years before being developed into a fortress.
Despite its obvious defensive potential Dunnottar was successfully captured many times. Nothing remains of the fortress King Donald II died defending during a Viking invasion in the late 9th century, or that English forces twice captured only to be retaken by the Scots, on the first occasion led by William Wallace and on the second by Sir Andrew Moray. These early wooden castles were routinely burnt down during or after a siege.
The most prominent building still standing is the L-shaped tower-house built towards the end of the 14th century by William Keith, Earl Marischal of Scotland. In the late 16th and early 17th centuries the castle became much more palatial with the construction of new ranges around a large courtyard enclosing a bowling green. http://www.castlexplorer.co.uk/scotland/dunnottar/dunnottar.php

Pfeiffer Beach, Big Sur, USA
Pfeiffer Beach is located in Big Sur, California, USA, with its purple sand, spectacular views and rock pools.
In late fall and early winter the sun shifts far enough south, so at sunset the light shines right through the sea cave. Wave surging against the cave's walls causes a watery spray that reflects and diffuses the warm sunset light to produce this striking scene.

Chiang Mai, Thailand
Chiang Mai is Thailand's second largest city, the political, economic, and cultural center of northern Thailand. Its level of development is only after the capital Bangkok.This "northern Thailand rose" is very different from bustling Bangkok. Renting a motorcycle hanging slowly in the ancient city, visiting the ancient temples and Thai massage are must-do things.
The ‘culture capital’ of Thailand is a charming and laidback 700-year-old town famous for sightseeing, trekking, soft adventure, shopping, spas and mountain resorts.

Seven Dials, London
Seven dials is the name for a road junction and the immediate neighborhood surrounding it in the West End of London near Covent Garden. Here, seven streets converge at a roundabout, at the center of which is a pillar with six sundials.
The neighborhood, which has enjoyed a resurgence in the last few decades, consists of narrow streets and alleyways that cater to pedestrians. Its unique character showcases the role of historic buildings in creating livable streets.
Always think British buildings are too solemn traditions, here it is definitely an exception -- personality characteristics are lined with small shops. It is the new trend London landmarks in recent years. The place is not big, but you can spend a whole afternoon. You can imagine how large charm it has.

Finca Bellavista, Costa Rica
Finca Bellavista is located in a relatively pristine part of Costa Rica far removed from the hubbub of the outside world.
An American couple, Erica and Matt Hogan, spent 5 years creating a large tree house village in the rainforest. The tree houses have permanent residents, but also entertain visitors, like a bucolic township far away from the noise of the city.
The treetop neighborhood is still growing and there has been a lot of progress since its inception less than 5 years ago. The completed base camp has a vast community complex with a dining hall, an open-air lounge (with Wifi – hey, nothing wrong with checking Facebook and reading Inhabitat from the rainforest), a rancho, a bath house, a campfire ring and a wedding garden.

Tower Bridge, London
Tower Bridge is the first bridge (15 bridges on River Thames) from London Thames Estuary, also a symbol of London, known as "London's main entrance". The bridge was built in 1886 and open to the public on June 30, 1894, connected south London and North District into a whole.
However the walk across the bridge is stunning, the detail in the stone and ironwork is breathtaking and its easy to see why people flock to the bridge each year. From the bridge you have great views of the Tower of London, HMS Belfast, St Katherine’s Dock and of course London Bridge.
Walking over this bridge is an experience in itself, standing in the middle you can see where the bascules (drawbridges) meet, giving you a sense of the engineering and power needed to lift them skyward. If you are going to London this is a bridge you have to cross.

Ghost Town Of The Moscow Region
An abandoned town that was accidentally found in the forests of the Moscow region, Zelenograd. And no one knows why the town would be abandoned. The old buildings in the village almost kept very much intact, but empty, almost like a ghost town. The village retains the original look, inside it there is an empty church, a dry creek, prisons and appalling death penalty.
It has now become tourist attractions like museum houses.

Giverny, France
French town Giverny. Too gorgeous to be like human world, just a fairy-tale place.Giverny is perhaps best known as the home of Claude Monet during the last years of his life. The home of Impressionist painter Claude Monet, Giverny is a great day trip from Paris.
If the small town of Giverny, France, looks oddly familiar, there’s a good reason for that: Impressionist painter Claude Monet lived here between 1883 and his death in 1926. The village of Giverny and its surrounding environs became the subject of many Monet works, with the painter even recreating his own personal garden on canvas.
Located along France’s River Seine, Giverny is home to slightly more than 500 people. The town is an ideal port of call for river cruises thanks to its quaint, charming nature and the influence of Claude Monet.

Al Khazneh Treasury, Jordan Petra
Al-Khazneh Treasury is the most well-know and famous structure in Petra. The Treasury is 30 meters wide and 43 meters high (98 feet by 140 feet) and is tucked into a corner of the wide canyon at the end of the Siq. This two-storey mausoleum was used by pirates to store their treasure and hence the name. 30 meters wide and 43 meters high, the grave was constructed for one of the Nabataean kings in the 1st century BC. The elegant Treasury features architectural and iconographic elements from ancient Greece and in this corner of the Middle East seems like a foreign guest from distant lands.
It was evaluated by experts the most beautiful building of Jordan Petra , on behalf of the architecture level in Nabataean Kingdom period.
However, you may feel very familiar with the building because the most important scenes from the 1989 Indian Jones film The Last Crusade were shot here.

Rainbow River: Caño Cristales, Columbia
The Cano Cristales, touted as the most beautiful river in the world (also called as the “River of five colors”), is definitely a treat to human eyes. It is located in the northern part of Colombia, in “Sierra de la Macarena”.
The river can be seen with multi-color mosses and algae all around, at a specified time of a year, otherwise which appear to be dull green and brown all over. The multi-color effect is mainly due to the variation in the water level which is affected during some parts of the year, and thus making the mosses bright up and blooms for the spectators. The water level adjusts the required sunlight for the plants, but if observed in the dry and rainy seasons, the picture is different.http://planetoddity.com/the-cano-cristales-river-of-rainbow-in-colombia/

Paracel Islands, China
The Paracel Islands, known as Xisha Islands in Chinese, are located about 180 sea miles to the southeast of Hainan Island. Together with Dongsha, Zhongsha and Nansha Islands, they are the south tip of China. Since very few visitors have ever landed on the island, Paracel has the well-preserved marine ecological system.
The Paracel Islands in the South China Sea consist of over 130 small coral islands, sandbanks and reefs divided into two groups, occupying an area of about 15,000 square kilometers of ocean surface. The Amphitrite Group consists of six low, narrow islands with sand cays, shallow lagoons and reefs, and the Crescent Group consists of eight islands forming a crescent-like structure enclosing a stunning deep, central lagoon.
Beautiful Paracel Islands are comparable to the Maldives, one of the four Islands in the South China Sea, mainly by the Xuande Islands and Yongle Islands, with a total of 22 islands, seven sandbars and over 10 reefs and hidden shoals! The Paracel Islands boast fresh, pollution-free air, crystal clear water and a completely undamaged and intricate marine ecosystem. Aside from swimming with sea turtles, there are more than 400 species of coral and oceanic fish living amongst the islands.
In a huge step for Hainan tourism, China has announced the opening up of the breathtaking Paracel Islands to resort-style tourism. With an intricate archipelago of coral reefs, an abundance of marine life and pristine tropical beaches on an almost untouched paradise, Australia’s Great Barrier Reef has some serious competition.

Not only does this hotel look like it’s built into a moss- and ivy-covered hill, it’s also got a suspended rope bridge and its own waterfall that cascades down the side. In addition to the guest rooms, the hotel contains a bar, a restaurant and a sauna. There are even hot tubs made from hollowed-out tree stumps.
At the Magic Mountain Hotel you will be hard pressed to find a right angle of any sort. The architecture and furnishings of the mountain are an intellectual wonderland of shapes and forms. Only mother nature herself could come up with such complex lines, colors, and textures.

Liguria, Italy
Liguria is a coastal region of north-western Italy, the third smallest of the Italian regions. Liguria borders France to the west, Piedmont to the north, and Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany to the east. It lies on the Ligurian Sea. Liguria is a narrow strip of land, enclosed between the sea and the Alps and the Apennines mountains, it is a winding arched extension from Ventimiglia to La Spezia.
The capital Genoa, one of the most important ports in the Mediterranean and home to Christopher Columbus, was already a powerful maritime state in the Middle Ages. Liguria is where pesto is originally from, one of the most popular sauces in Italian cuisine. Seafood is a major staple of Ligurian cuisine, as the sea has been part of the region’s culture since its beginning. Another important aspect of the culture there is the beach. Tourists have been flocking to the Italian Riviera for decades to experience its calm, deep blue water. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liguria
The Liguria wine region has some of the most glorious landscapes in all of Italy. If you're planning a trip to Italy, Liguria might not be the first destination on your list. Tuscany is next door, with the art and shopping of Florence and the historic sweep of Siena. But don't overlook the sights and the flavors of this small region, framed by steep mountains and warm seas, with a culture all its own.

Long an aviation center – St-Exupéry and Mermoz flew out from here on their pioneering airmail flights in the 1920s – Toulouse is now home to Aérospatiale, the national Space Centre, the European shuttle programme, the leading aeronautical schools, and frontier-pushing electronics industry. It's all happening in Toulouse, whose 110,000 students make it second only to Paris as a university centre.

Ngwe Saung Beach, Myanmar
Ngwe Saung is on the western coast of Myanmar on the Bay of Bengal, nearly directly west of Yangon and a bit south of Ngapali. It has become popular with tourists in just the last four or five years and the quality of the beach, sand and water is comparable to Ngapali Beach. There are many hotels (most of them are deluxe or superior category) however a few more are being built. Until recently, the beach could be reached only by car (about 5-6 hours drive) from Yangon, or by a tourist ferry that would make an overnight trip (but sometimes the boat would not run if they did not have enough bookings). Like Ngapali Beach, the beauty of the beach is unspoiled and visitors can enjoy a peaceful and relaxing holiday.http://www.myanmars.net/myanmar-travel/myanmar-yangon/ngwesaung-beach.htm

Girona, Spain
Girona (Spanish: Gerona) is a city in the northeast of Catalonia, Spain at the confluence of the rivers Ter, Onyar, Galligants and Guell with an estimated population of 95,000.
The old town of Girona is a popular day trip from Barcelona, about 2 hours by train and slightly less time by car. It stands on the steep hill of the Capuchins to the west of the river, while the more modern section stands on the plains to the east. The city is easy to explore by walking its narrow streets, passageways, and along its ancient Roman wall. The Roman city wall, the 'Passeig Arqueològic' (the archeological walk), begins at the northern edge of the city. Within the wall you can still see the remains of a Roman road, built to connect Rome to Tarragona. Continuing along the wall you can visit the old quarter, seeing churches, the Banys Arabs (Arabic baths), the Cathedral, museums, and the old Jewish quarter. In the beautiful historic Jewish quarter are lots of museums and stone buildings, wedged against narrow cobbled streets. There are many quaint bars and restaurants in this area, as well as charming boutiques. Once out of the old quarter, stroll around la Rambla de la Libertad, a street where you can find all sorts of shops, boutiques, restaurants and fashionable cafés. The views of Las Cases de L'Onyar (painted houses along the Onyar River) from its bridges are breathtaking. We liked the old quarter of Girona almost as much as the Gothic Quarter in Barcelona.http://www.goodnewsgirlz.com/story/day-trip-girona-spain

Hunyad Castle, Romania
The castle is situated in Hunedoara , Romania.
The Hunyad Castle (Romanian: Castelul Huniazilor) is a castle in Transylvanian Hunedoara, present-day Romania. Until 1541 it was part of the Kingdom of Hungary, and after the Principality of Transylvania.
It was built mainly in Gothic style, but has Renaissance architectural elements. It features tall and strong defense towers, an interior yard and a drawbridge.

After 15 years they completed the well, but their captors did not keep their promise. It is said that the inscription on a wall of the well means "you have water, but not soul". http://europe.knoji.com/beautiful-castles-in-romania/

Altes Rathaus, Germany
Altes Rathaus Tours take in the richly decorated Reichssaal (Imperial Hall) where the delegates convened, and also the stomach-turning torture chamber in the basement. Walk into the old holding cell and look down to the dungeon before entering the interrogation room which bristles with scary tools of the trade.
Here, even the mere breath is so pleasant!

The storytelling S. Stefano Di Stefano Hotel
If you’re looking for the true Italian medieval experience, the S. Stefano Di Stefano is the place for you. Located in the Gran Sasso village and the Monti Della Laga national park of the Abruzzo mountains, this hotel is a rural Italian “albergo diffuso” (village hotel) that is dedicated to upholding the heritage of the village’s past. This hotel was built in an effort to preserve the integrity of the village and its surrounding environment. The welcoming of tourists brought the village back to life without destroying the Santo Stefano identity. Traces of countryside life is preserved through the hotel’s use of original architectural materials, furniture and textiles from the Abruzzo mountains. Artisan skills dated back from many centuries ago were revived with how the architects Oriano Associati Architetti sought assistance from the Museum of the People of Abruzzo and with the advice of the elders in the town. The culinary heritage and rituals of the village exist within the hotel’s core creating a presence for the rich culture of this Italian medieval town to strive.http://blog.gessato.com/2012/03/27/s-stefano-di-sessanio-by-oriano-associati-architetti/

Bath, UK
Known for its restorative wonders, Bath was once the home of Jane Austen. The first thing that strikes you when you arrive in Bath is its beauty – the city has over 5000 listed buildings and has been nestled in a sheltered valley between the Cotswolds and the Mendips since 43AD, when the Romans chanced upon the naturally occurring hot springs and decided to build themselves a place to relax and bathe in between building their empire and fighting the locals. Fast forward a couple of thousand years and my girlfriend and I headed to Bath for a weekend of modern day relaxation and bathing.
Here, you will never feel a sense of urgency in the city, everywhere you can feel relaxing .

Taos, New Mexico
Taos is one of the most stunningly situated small towns in North America, set on a high-desert mesa in the shadows of the 13,000-foot-high Sangre de Cristo mountains. A historic arts colony that retains its creative spirit today, this diminutive town of about 6,500 has long been favored by bohemians, free spirits, progressives, and gays and lesbians. Funkier and with far more affordable places to eat and stay than Santa Fe, Taos is a fantastic destination for hiking, biking, photography, and white-water rafting during the warmer months, and it's a terrific ski town in winter.
The magazine says the charm of Taos centers around tourists and other outdoor enthusiasts packing the plaza of the old adobe town, along with its many galleries and museums steeped in a deep Hispanic and Native American past.

Guilinyang, Haikou
My husband and I went to the town nearby named GUILINYANG the day before yesterday. It's a beautiful place but still not very developed. But it will be a very nice place for travel because many new nice hotels will be built near the beautiful seaside. And there is a university area but we did not visit.
(http://www.seo-forum-seo-luntan.com/pics/Guilinyang 1.jpg)
The sea is beautiful and the beach is very long with fine sand. But it is not very clean because it is not made for people to enjoy the pretty scene.
(http://www.seo-forum-seo-luntan.com/pics/Guilinyang 2.jpg)
Anyway, in front of the beach, we can see it was very popular before. We still can see the deserted hot spring-the trees already grow up in the pool, and some disused BBQ restaurants, broken huts. And you see, there are some chickens on the seaside~~

We saw a man collecting some on the beach near the water. Then I saw the very small shells he left on the beach. I just cannot guess what he collects these small shells for. Just cook to eat or keep them to grow up and then sell out?

There are many different shapes from sand on the beach. Maybe they are built by some animals~
