2009-06-15T08:01:00.000+02:00

The site will show you where to find the best places and deals. It's easy to navigate and use, as all information is categorized for easy access. They even have an application on iPhone.

Take the restaurants london as example, you can read the users review and rating. You can see the location of the restaurants on map. They may also have some recommendation by the restaurant itself to tell you what is the best food to try. If you don't like it, you can see what is nearby also. Your recently viewed and searched will be recorded, so that you can always find what you have read about last time.

As for the pubs london, you may take a look at the users uploaded photo before you decide which to go. Some sample photos are shown above. But if there is a video so that you can see it and listen to the music, it would be much better.

What a strange festival. But anyway, different country different religion got their own tradition, so Japan got this Naked Festival. Seems like is a kind of offering to the god.

I always like Japan, they got a good mixture of tradition and modern, very unique. Those traditional is very traditional, and yet the modern is very modern, and both mix well.

Ever wonder how African sell their eggs? Well, they do it in a special way that you never see. They "wear" the egg on their egg! Take a look!

Just kidding, I think they are not selling eggs, maybe got some parade or carnival. But wearing those on head, really got to be very careful. Or maybe those are just empty egg case.

Israelis white underwear group photo to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the "White city"

2009-05-29T10:26:00.001+02:00

It appears that the status of Tel Aviv as "The White City" not only applies to its Old Bauhaus buildings, but also to the colour of underwear worn by its residents.

At least 500 Israelis on May 27 undressed in the central square, sporting white "Sloggi" underwear, for a group photo-shoot marking the 100th anniversary of the vibrant coastal Israeli city. The event was organised by the underwear company, Sloggi.

"You see people of all different shape and sizes coming out here, Not just people who have perfect bodies and are putting them out on display and are saying that they are proud of themselves and that they are having a good time. Every one is here just to have a good time," said Tel Aviv resident Ela Ronen.

Tel Aviv, which boasts many 1930s Modernist buildings inspired by Germany's Bauhaus school, is also dubbed "the White City" and was declared a World Cultural Heritage site by UNESCO.

Beautiful Tulip

2009-05-14T07:51:00.000+02:00

When talk about Tulip, I am sure much people will think of Nevertheland or Holland. Overthere, you can see a sea of flowers, and colorful flowers. You will be surprise how beautiful and how rich is the color. And always people will arrange the color such that when you view from far away, they will form some pattern. It is so nice in Spring, the start of a year.

I love these flowers. They give me the energy and hope. They make me feel happier when I see them every morning.

Temple at Kanyakumari - Southern dip of India

2009-05-11T07:36:00.002+02:00

At the southern most tip of India, where the Arabian Sea, the Indian Ocean, and the Bay of Bengal meet, lies Kanyakumari. This is the only place in India, where the sunset and moonrise can be viewed simultaneously on a full moon day.

This temple is devoted to a manifestation of Parvati, the virgin goddess who performed penance to acquire Lord Shiva's hand in marriage. The temple is a major tourist attraction with neighboring ghat, beautifully placed overlooking the shore. There are two rocks emerging out of the ocean, located southeast of the Kumari Amman temple. One among these is Sri Padaparai, where the footprints of the virgin goddess are believed to be imprinted on this rock. It is said that Swami Vivekananda sat in deep meditation here and therefore the Vivekananda Rock Memorial was built in 1970.

Maybe one day should pay indian a visit.

McDonald's that you never see before

2009-04-30T08:06:00.000+02:00

I have been to many places, north america, europe, asia, most of the countries. Only never been to south america and africa. And always when I travel, whenever I am on budget, I will try to eat fast food like McDonald. Because the price is still affordable, and most important, the quality is there. Though different McDonald at different countries may different, e.g. some with pork, some without pork etc. But still, more or less the standard is there. But how about this McD?

Can anyone tell me where is it? Really have this? Or just someone put the signboard up there..... This is indeed interesting. I still remember someone ask me a question in Twitter (you can now follow me at Twitter) that day, how I define interesting. In fact, many are interesting! Just like this one.

Jesolo Lido @ Italy

2009-04-09T09:13:00.000+02:00

Jesolo is a town lies north of Venice, between Eraclea and Cavallino-Treporti. Definitely there are many hotel jesolo. Lido di Jesolo is the seaside part of the city of Jesolo. Although it existed as Roman settlement, only in the last century the seaside has been developed, becoming one of the best resort in Italy. “Sandy beaches, gently lapping seas and more ice-cream parlours than you can shake a sugar-cone at, Lido di Jesolo is the Venetian Riviera’s most popular beach resort.”

Lido di Jesolo at a few kilometers from the enchanting Venice, with its 15 kilometres of fine dolomite sand, accomodates every year over 10 millions of tourists, who spend their holidays making excursions in the greenery of the pinewood and in the surrounding lagoon, who entertain themselves in the modern discos, in the squares with hundreds of shows of every kind, the coloured fun fairs and above all Via Bafile, the longest pedestrian way in Europe.

If you are looking for a hotel jesolo lido, here got one recommendation: Park Hotel Brasilia. Park Hotel Brasilia, is ideally located in the East area of Lido di Jesolo just few steps from the main shopping street and a pedestrian area. The interior of the hotel conquests with the gentle design and soft colors of furniture and décor. The stunning landscape is accomplice of the evenings, by candlelight, in the refined restaurant Ipanema.

Tucked at the top of Italy’s Adriatic Coast are the sun-drenched beaches of Lido di Jesolo. All 15 kilometres of them. We’re talking sand as soft as silk, brightly coloured beach brollies and seaside bars aplenty. Add to that pedaloes drawn up on the water’s edge, and it’s easy to see why this bright and breezy resort is such a hit with holidaymakers. So nice, looking forward to stay in a hotel 4 stelle jesolo.

While in Lido di Jesolo, you can also take a trip out to the nearby islands of Murano, Burano and Torcello. Set adrift in the Venetian Lagoon, these legendary isles are a joy to behold. Since the 13th-century, Murano has been the centre of the Venetian glass industry and you can view the centuries old methods of glassblowing at a factory and perhaps even buy a couple of the sparkling creations as souvenirs or presents. Neighbouring Burano is a vibrant patchwork of brightly coloured houses and is renowned for making lace while Torcello is home to a stunning Byzantine cathedral complete with glittering mosaics and Attila the Hun's throne.
