Tower Bridge Shots
#timetotravel
Visiting London, it can be hard to decide what you should see. The Tower Bridge is one of those cannot miss places.
Head down to the South side of the Bridge (Tower Hill Station) and follow your route along the outskirts of Tower of London across to The Girl with a Dolphin Fountain (empty when I visited).
Even on a dull day, this captures a great shot of the bridge. Just before crossing to the Fountain, you can see these designs by local schools for the King’s Coronation.

Beautiful Lake In Bangka 🏝️
#timetotravel
Clumps of white clouds that cover the top of Bukit Pading are the main attraction when visiting the tourist attraction of Lake Pading. The hill with an altitude of 677 meters above sea level is a witness to how beautiful the natural charm is in Lake Pading.
Pading Lake is one of the many tourist destinations in Central Bangka. Lake Pading or also known as Kulong Atap Seng is located in Perlang Village, Lubuk Besar District, Central Bangka Regency. The journey to this location takes about 30-40 minutes from Koba City, Central Bangka and if taken from Depati Amir Pangkalpinang Airport, it takes about 80 kilometers with a journey time of about one and a half hours. Before arriving at Lake Pading, tourists will pass a yellow/puru dirt road that has not been paved for 150 meters.
This lake is actually a former tin sand mining area which forms a lake-like crater with a stretch of sand around it. The clarity of the water of Pading Lake can be seen by wading around the waters of Pading Lake by using a rented boat on the outskirts of the lake. The background of the hills and the scenery around the Lake Pading area also still looks natural. Previously, this lake was just a place to relax and bathe for the youth of Perlang Village. However, now it has become a tourist area that is very beautiful and interesting to visit, especially during the day and evening.

Turquoise Eye of Qinghai Province
Tibetan plateau AKA "Roof of the World" is the highest in the world and Qinghai lake (青海湖) is the largest saltwater lake in China. 🌊Have you noticed that we're speaking in superlatives? It's not a coincidence. Qinghai lake (青海湖) definitely deserves to be be called the sea of the West due to its size, vastness, and the fact that it resembles a sea in certain aspects. It's a saline waters boasts incredible variety of wildlife at an altitude of 3205m. "On the plateau's crest, a jewel so grand, Qinghai Lake's waters stretch across the land. Azure skies embrace its tranquil face, A mirror of nature's serene embrace." 😍
Tips and tricks: If you want to visit Qinghai lake without any tour operators or rental cars you can easily get there from the Xining bus station (西宁汽车客运中心站). Several buses go to Qinghaihu (hu = lake) every day starting from 8AM. 🚌The drop off location is called 青海湖国家重点风景名胜区. That's the closest scenic area to the Xining city. One way ticket costs 60RMB. 💸The bus will wait for the passengers at the scenic area's parking lot for around 3 hours before heading back to the Xining bus station. To make sure you have a seat you can buy round way tickets at the Xining bus station. Total cost will be 120RMB per person. 🙃

Fast & Furious During The Summer 🏎
#summerbreak
If you are looking for some adrenaline pumping moments and looking to drive like a professional race car driver in the movie "Too fast too Furious", then I have got the ideal place for you. This summer, you could head down to Patong Go kart Speedway and have a day of non stop fun!
Patong Go Kart Speedyway is centrally located in the central area of phuket and it is not difficult to get there. Once at the place, you could choose the types of go kart. They have individual go karts, as well as, tendam go karts where you could sit with a child or another person. Generally, a round of the go kart race would last about 15- 20 minutes so in terms of value of money, it was still reasonably priced for this activity. The tracks and go karts are professionally maintained and you could race along with your friends. It's superbly fun and I guarantee heart racing moments at Patong go Kart speedway.
Ao Nang’s hidden gem for budget travellers!
It was great to be back in one of my favourite places in Thailand, Krabi! I usually stay in Railey but this time, for my last night in Thailand I’ve decided to stay in Ao Nang so it would be easier and more convenient for me to go to Krabi international airport for my flight to Singapore the following day. I chose this budget hotel I found here and viola! I was definitely impressed by the cleanliness of their rooms, their very friendly and hospitable hotel personnel, their well maintained pool with an amazing view and the fact that they let me check in earlier so I able to enjoy the pool on a hot day! I totally recommend this place. #summerbreak
A Different Summerbreak With Turtles 🐢
#summerbreak
This Summerbreak my family and I had the chance of having a different kind of summerbreak. It was one that was educational and inspirational. In Phang Nga khao lak, Thailand, the Thai royal navy are putting their best efforts in saving the critcally endangered sea turtles, that are so close to extinction. We know we had to spend a day at this sea turtle conservation centre in khao lak.
Once at the Thai Naval Turtle Conservation centre, we were able to see the Thai naval soldiers caring and giving their utmost best in taking care of these beautiful little sea creatures. We had the chance to see the different life stages of the turtles and how the age groups of the turtles. We saw how these turtles were endangered by fishing nets and plastics in the sea and it taught us how to be more responsible in our actions. Just by throwing something in the sea could bring a huge negative impact to the whole ocean and its marine life. There were banners with information on the different turtle species and how they were being saved. What's most inspiration about the sanctuary is that once the turtles are nursed to a certain age, they are being released back to the sea, where they truly belonged.
We also learnt about the historical background of this turtle sanctuary and how this idea was started by the royal Thai queen. The royal turtle conservation centre in Phang Nga is an amazing place and we had such a great time with the sea turtles there. It's somewhere different to spend your summerbreak at.
Menya Shishido
#summerbreak in Kuala Lumpur, calling for ramen! After being very popular with their weird creation of combination for ramen, Menya Shishido become very popular. Most recent one is Durian ramen where they served ramen in durian husk with mao shan wang durian meat as well. I came here because of that, but sadly, it is now limited to 20 serving a day so I couldn't manage to try.
In the end I ordered theif 3 flavour chasu ramen which is combination of 3 sauces. I pick black garlic, spicy and basil. Brooth is very thick and I can taste the basil. While egg and chasu is just so-so. Definitely not worth to travel very far for this ramen, but I'd come back to try their durian ramen one day.

The stunning red rocks of Sedona ⛰️ 🌞 🌲
Sedona is a stunning town nestled in some of the most breathtaking surrounds I’ve ever seen. Drivable from the Grand Canyon it’s the perfect place to relax after the intensity of the GC.
A famous retirement town Sedona is famous for the way it was embraced nature and tried to curtail the growth of the city to fit in with its surroundings.
The city itself has shopping, restaurants and lots of local craft stalls. It can be very busy in summer periods so it’s best to book everything in advance, especially any restaurants that offer views of the rocks.
The surrounding areas offer some stunning drives through forests and rivers but again these can get very busy, so if you want to drive slowly and take everything in try an early morning drive before breakfast!

🇦🇺Brisbane | An immersive journey towards French Impressionism 🎨
“Now I really feel the landscape.” – Claude Monet.
I felt the same way after going to “Monet in Paris” in Brisbane, and it’s coming to Perth soon too. This special experience is all about some greatest artists amid Impressionism including Claude Monet for sure, Edgar Degas, Camille Pissarro and many others. It’s like an adventure that lets people like me explore different parts.
When I walked around, it felt like I was inside the world of art. It reminded me of TeamLab, but this is a bit different because it focuses more on the art itself instead of giving you a big experience. It’s not really for families, but if you really like art, it’s great. It’s also nice for a quiet date.
What’s really cool about “Monet in Paris” is how it’s different. In between the main parts, the whole place changes colours, showing what art was like in the 1800s. The colours move around, celebrating the way artists used to paint. There are paintings everywhere, even around me, so it’s like I’m part of the art too.
The gallery is all about old-style art and how it connects with what Monet did. It amazed me. If you really like art, history, and lots of colours, you’ve got to go. Don’t miss the chance to be in a place that’s full of beauty that never gets old. Remember to check the operating period before heading there.

Glamping Hygge Hill
#summerbreak
One stay and four meals. When you arrive at the camp, you will have afternoon tea and experience DIY wine glasses. Dinner is provided by the camp. If you don’t like it, you can ask first.
The rest area is very beautiful. Red and white wine, beer, coffee and tea are available at any time!
Afternoon tea is available until five o'clock, and there are many types to choose from!
Have dinner at 6:30, and if you are full, you can order drinks at the small bar next to it, it’s totally complimentary!
Originally there were activities in the campfire area, roasting marshmallows, drinking wine, etc., but because there was a typhoon that day, the wind was quite strong, so it was changed to eat roasted wild boar with roasted wild vegetables in the rest area.
Alcohol is served in the rest area, and a whole pot of chicken soup is stewed. We participated in the midnight snack that day, including a total of four of us.
The camp steward prepared a lot of food, and I enjoyed eating!
There is still an hour of yoga class to participate in the next morning, and breakfast is delivered to the door of the tent in a picnic basket.
The breakfast style is as shown in the picture, very delicious!
Nostalgic Park for all ages!
Established in the 1970s, Toa Payoh town park was known to be a popular site for taking wedding photos in the 1970s and 1980s which includes my parents as well! After undergoing refurbishment in 1997, it has become a multipurpose venue suitable for all ages. There are glass patches for picnics, multipurpose hall for people to organise activities such as various workout routines. You can even take a tik tok dance video here! The landscape ponds and mini waterfall makes it a good place to rest and relax. If you are hungry after a good workout, there is a seafood restaurant right next to the park to satisfy your hunger.

Berlin Cathedral
#summerbreak
While in Berlin, one of the top places to see was the Berlin Cathedral. I went mid afternoon and while the surrounding area was pretty busy, the cathedral itself wasn’t.
Entry is €10 and you can purchase the ticket from a small stall just to the left side of the cathedral entrance.
Once inside, the decor is stunning. Gold detail all around and peaceful.
You can take a walk up to the top of the dome, this is included in your ticket price but there are regular warnings as you enter that area to take care. You will also see signs on the way up counting how many steps you have left. It’s 267 steps in total, the staircases become narrow the further up you go.

There is a lot of things to do before you go through the security area, but if you are travelling internationally then there is a lovely bar just near the gates. the international section is small but it does have duty free, tax refund and Africa themed gift shops.
I took an international flight out of Cape Town and it was very quick Ito go through security and immigration. There are a large number of shops before departures and one main one after security #urbanexplorer

Cycling Trail In Cardiff - Taff Trail
Attraction name: Taff Track
Location: Cardiff Bay to Brecon
Length 88.5 Kilometres
Duration: Approx 5 hours
If you want to have a break with the hot sun in summer, Cardiff will be a good choice. And one of the best thing to do during summer is to ride a bike. You can rent a bike and start biking around. This trail is mostly flat so it’s suitable for beginners. However, if you are really tired, you can take a train and get back to your accommodation.
The journey is amazing and you pass through many green nature, which is very relaxing. I strongly recommend to try this even if you are a beginner.
