Grandeur Of Nature In Belize

Belize is not just known for its magnificent Mayan ruins but also for its splendid natural beauty. Its coast is a grand showcase of sparkling turquoise waters and breathtaking coral reefs full of multicolored marine life. Its lush jungles conceal hidden treasures of stunning waterfalls, splendid terraced pools and awe inspiring caves. And, its mainland is home to fertile natural parks providing sanctuary to the country's thriving wildlife.

The cays are Belize most visited natural attractions, the most popular of which is the Ambergris Cay. There are thousands of other islets but Ambergris is among the larger ones. Its crystal clear waters in all hues of blue and green are perfect for snorkeling and diving.

The area around Hoi Chan Marine Reserve is especially favored by divers in the know. For other similar adventures, you may want to check out Southwater Cay for more snorkeling and diving fun, Cerros for its enthralling water sports selection and Placencia for its lovely beaches that are ideal for swimmers and loungers.

However, if you want a more tranquil island excursion, you can easily hire a boat that will take you to more remote but no less breathtaking sites.

Don't limit yourself to the Belize coastline. There are still plenty of things to see and do on the mainland. Belize famed Mayan ruins, natural parks and wildlife conservation sites are sprinkled in several locations inland.

First, there is the easily accessible Blue Hole National Park. It is just 12 miles from the country's new capital, Belmopan, and a few meters walk from Hummingbird Highway. Once there, you will find a craggy landscape of underground rivers, subterranean cave systems and blue-hued sinkholes. The latter is the park's claim to fame and the source of its name.

The Five Blues Lake National Park is another major attraction on mainland Belize. It is famous not only for the various shades of blue reflected on seemingly enchanted waters but also for its water's disappearing act back in 2006. But this breathtaking lagoon proved resilient when its magical waters started filling up the area a year later.

Now, it looks as stunning as ever as if the year-long dry spell never happened. Don't forget to check out the Orchid Island in the eastern side of the lake. The spot becomes a riot of colors come April to May when its wild orchids are in full bloom.

Finally, the Crooked Tree Wildlife Sanctuary is also worth visiting. As the name suggests, it is a haven for thriving flora and fauna. It is especially sought for by bird watchers and nature lovers. The area is best explored floating on a canoe or a kayak. Quietly paddle along its meandering tributaries and treat yourself to rare glimpses of its famous residents such as the egrets and cormorants. The best time to visit the sanctuary is during the months of February to May when thousands of migratory birds stop by to rest before they go on their way to more pleasant climates.

A Day Out in Phnom Penh

Most often than not, Phnom Penh is nothing more than a quick stop on the way to the ancient treasures of Angkor Wat. At first glance, it would seem that there is nothing special to discover in and around Cambodia's capital. However, if you look closer and spend a little more time in the city, you will find something truly interesting and heart-wrenching.

Phnom Penh has a long and turbulent history that stretches way back to the 14th century. Several of its landmarks will give you glimpses of the vital events that shaped this country into what it is today.

Phnom Penh museums are fertile grounds for an insightful survey of its history. If you are interested in the country's cultural heritage and ancient traditions then the National Museum is a must-visit. Aside from a valuable collection of relics and artifacts from the ancient times, it also features an impressive display of Khmer arts and crafts. Also, check out the museum's gallery of busts and sculptures from the temples of Angkor Wat to give you an idea of what lies waiting for you in the famed ruins of Cambodia.

If recent history is more to your liking, then the Tuol Sleng Museum is also worth seeing. But, it is not recommended for the faint hearted. There, you will find torture implements and blood stains on the walls - graphic representation of the Khmer Rouge brutality back in history.

The museum was once a security prison for political detainees and remains veiled in a bleak shadow of despair and sorrow. If you want to see more of the Khmer Rouge atrocities, then proceed to the execution field of Choeung Ek where thousands of bodies were buried in mass graves.

Admittedly, a visit to Tuol Sleng Museum is a downer. For some pick-me-up, head to the Lakeside - a favorite hang-out of backpackers in the city. The place is bustling with the exuberant energy of tourists and there are plenty of restaurants and bars in the area where you can have a decent meal and plenty of drink on the cheap. However, if you are looking for a more tranquil and charming atmosphere, you are better off at the balcony of the Foreign Correspondents Club. The overlooking view of the river and the colonial ambiance it offers make it more than worthy of the extra money a visit will cost you.

If you need a dose of elegance and beauty, a visit to the Royal Palace is a must. It may not compare to the splendor and majesty of its counterparts in various parts of the world, but it is still without doubt a place of beauty and opulence. Its lush gardens are a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Phnom Penh is also a good base for some interesting destinations in nearby towns. There is dolphin watching in Irrawaddy River in the town of Kratie, the picturesque coastal town of Kep, and the pleasant shores of Sihanoukville.

So before you head out to Cambodia's grandest attraction, you may want to first check out these lesser known yet still charming and delightful destinations.

Day Trips Outside Kuala Lumpur

If you are planning to stay in Kuala Lumpur for more than a weekend, then it is best to include a few day trips in your itinerary. The city's attractions and landmarks are not too far apart and with its efficient public transportation system, it is easy to cover all of them within a day or two. If you have several days to spare, here are just some ideas on how to spend them.

The nearest day trip excursion destination is the popular Batu Caves. They are just within the city limits and only a few minutes away from the city center. The soaring stairs of what looks like more than a hundred steps and a towering golden statue of Murugan, a Hindu deity, will greet you at the entrance. As you trace the steps to the cave, you will be accompanied by more than a few monkeys hoping to receive a few sweet treats from you. The cave is huge and its ceiling is 100 meters high. Inside are several Hindu shrines and the ever-present vendors and their quirky merchandise. A visit to the cave will take no more than half a day of your time.

For the other half of the day, you might want to spend it at the exciting expanse of Sunway Lagoon, the country's most famous theme park. With its enthralling rides, interesting shops and lots of chow, you will easily find yourself enjoying your visit.

Another popular day trip destination outside Kuala Lumpur is the historical region of Malacca. It is only a 2 hour drive from the capital but it is unlike any of the other cities in Malaysia. It is a charming colonial city with influences from the Portuguese, British and Dutch that once ruled Malacca. Cobble stone streets, lovely squares and impressive colonial buildings are some of the attractions waiting to be explored in the area.

Do not miss checking out the summit of St. Paul's Hill. It will show you the picturesque panorama of the city and several other century-old attractions at the summit such as the St. Paul Church and Dutch tombstones among others.

If you are looking for a cooler and more panoramic excursion, then the Genting Highlands should be your next destination. They tower over the rest of the country at 6,000 feet above sea level. At the summit, you will not only enjoy the lush greenery and the cool climate but you will also get sublime pampering at the resort casino located there. You may want to take a ride on the cable car to take in the tropical rain-forest below.

Finally, if you want to take a look at the remarkable organization and impressive architecture of the country's government buildings, then you have to visit Putrajaya, Malaysia's spanking new Federal Government Administrative Center. It is only 25 kilometers from the city center. Aside from the striking edifices that characterize the vast compound, there are also plenty of parks and gardens where you can spend your idle time in relaxation. You can even take a cruise around Putrajaya Lake if you are up for it.

It usually gets a lot less attention than its more interesting neighbors such as the effervescent cities and islands of Thailand, the idyllic beaches of Indonesia or the efficient metropolis of Singapore.

Top on the list of Kuala Lumpur visitors is the world-famous Petronas Twin Towers. It once held claim to being the highest building in the world. The sky bridge connecting the twin towers is open to the public. You do need to be an early bird if you want to treat yourself to a bird's eye view of the city's panorama. Hundreds of tourist line up daily and majority of them are not lucky enough to get to the view. Slots are limited so you want to be early for it. If lady luck is not on your side or you're just too lazy to wake up early, don't worry - the twin towers impressive heights are better viewed from the ground.

While you are out enjoying the view of the Petronas Towers, check out the Kuala Lumpur Convention Center just a few minutes walk away. The center offers several attractions worth checking out. There is the Aquaria KLCC, an impressive underwater park displaying hundreds of aquatic animals. Also within the vicinity is a pleasant park.

If you want to see lovely gardens in this bustling metropolis, Kuala Lumpur has several to offer. But one of the most impressive with plenty of landmarks to boot is the Lake Garden. It is a vast 200 hectare public park that features orchid and hibiscus gardens for those who love flowers, one park full of thousands of colorful butterflies and another one featuring thousands of birds of various species. You can also go boating around the lake for a more romantic perspective. There are also several museums and a planetarium nearby.

If interesting architecture is what you are looking for then you better visit the Kuala Lumpur Railway Station and its remarkable arches and minarets. There is also Jamek Mosque, the oldest surviving mosque in the city, whose design offers an insightful glimpse of the area's early settlers. If you want to see the grandest of all Asian mosques in terms of size, you're not too far from seeing one because Negara Mosque is just a short ride away.

If you want to do some serious shopping,  then you're in for a treat because several stops of the Kuala Lumpur Hop-on Hop-off bus will take you right into the heart of popular shopping centers such as Bukit Bintang Plaza, Sungei Wang Plaza and KL Pavilion to name a few.

It will take you on a tour around Mumbai's vibrant harbor and if you desire, you can also take the ferry to Elephanta Island where a complex of cave-temples dedicated for the goddess Shiva is waiting to be explored.

Once back in the mainland, comb through the bustling streets of the city in search of bargains and interesting finds. The busy pavements of Colaba Causeway provide a rich source of souvenirs, but if you want a more organized and a much wider selection of merchandise, the Chor Bazaar Thieves Market is the way to go. If shoes and RTW are what you are looking for, then the Linking Road is a must-stop.

Mumbai also features several heritage buildings that are a stark reminder of its colonial past. They are definitely worth visiting not only for their historical significance but also for their impressive aesthetics.

The Victoria Terminus or the Chatrapati Shivaji Terminus as it is now known is a definite must-see. If not for the many locals milling around, you will think you are somewhere in Europe when you catch sight of the building. If you have been to the Victoria Terminus in London, you will be overwhelmed by the similarities. Other glimpses of colonial architecture in the city include the Prince of Wales Museum and the Horniman Circle.

The sizable Mahalaxmi Dhobi Gat is another major cultural attraction in Mumbai. Be forewarned though, it is not for the faint-hearted. Here you will find thousands of pieces of dirty laundry hand-washed by hundreds of dhobis or watermen in dingy water tubs. Definitely not pleasant, but it is surely an interesting sight.

Other visit-worthy attractions include the Mosque of Haji Ali, the Art District of Kala Ghoda and the National Park right smack in the heart of the city.

Mumbai is also famous for Bollywood - Hollywood's counterpart in this part of the globe. So, you may want to include  a tour of the Film City in your itinerary to complete your Mumbai experience.

Travel is a fact of life for most consultants. Many spend 45 weeks on the road every year, and some say they wouldn't want it any other way.

We know one married couple where both are traveling consultants. They often joke that they should write a book called "Marriage on Three Days a Week" because they only see each other from Thursday night to Sunday night most weeks. Of course, they take great vacations with all the frequent flier miles and hotel points, and neither one is left at home to manage the household while the other dines in restaurants every night and comes home expecting all the chores to be done.

Like many others, they have learned how to be comfortable on the road so that their travel schedules are a source of new experiences and great stories instead of a hardship. If you learn how to be comfortable in your environment, you'll do better work and last longer in this demanding field.

There are two types of consulting roles, from a travel schedule perspective. One type of consultant is the real Road Warrior who is in a different city each week, often visiting two or three different clients and staying only a couple of days each place. The other type travels to the same destination every week to work on a long-term engagement over several months. Which type of travel schedule you end up with depends as much on your personality as on your skill set.

No matter which type of travel schedule you have, there are some seemingly small things you can do to make yourself significantly more comfortable on the road.

Enroll in every frequent flier and hotel points program you can. The biggest perks in business travel come when you get a free family vacation later. All those trips to Pittsburgh might buy you a trip to Honolulu or Prague or wherever your heart leads you.

Whenever possible, use the same airline and hotel chain for every city. This helps you rack up the points faster, and it also establishes a level of comfort and familiarity for you from the moment you arrive in the city. Not every Marriott is exactly like every other Marriott, but there are enough similarities between them that you will begin to feel at home quickly.

Packing for Travel

Develop a routine for packing. Make a checklist that includes everything that you know you'll need for any trip, including items like toothbrush and cell-phone charger. Go over the checklist every single time you pack a suitcase.

If you don't follow this advice, you will eventually end up spending $200 on a "charge everything" device and using a hotel toothbrush that will rip your gums out.

Always assume you will have to carry your luggage yourself. If you aren't sure you will need it, don't take it. You can always buy one there. (Don't accept engagements in locations that don't have stores.)
Pack something comfortable to wear in your hotel room and clothes you can wear to work out.
Plan to sleep in something you don't mind being seen wearing in public. In the event of a fire, hotels will evacuate two floors above and two floors below, even if it's just a small fire in a trash basket. That's what that loudspeaker above the bed is for.
All luggage looks alike. Make your bag easy to spot on the carousel and less likely to be stolen with a few strategically placed strips of duct tape or a big pink bow.
The military knows that rolled clothing does not wrinkle. Don't fold it, roll it. Turn jackets inside out, fold the collar up and press one shoulder inside the other.
Think about what you pack from the perspective of Customs and Airport Security. For example, many airlines will not allow you to carry steel-tipped darts in your carry-on luggage. (Yes, one of us learned this the hard way. Not the one you think.) Carry all medication in the original packages, particularly prescription medication.
Purchase two of everything you use daily, like cosmetics, razors, toothbrush, etc. Leave one set at home. Pack toiletries once and leave them packed. This way, you don't have to worry that you forgot something essential and will not notice until the middle of the night in a strange hotel room. When you run out of something on the road, replace it. (This is easier if you use common brands that are sold nationally.)

After only a few weeks of travel, you'll know exactly what you need to pack and what you don't.

Hotel Living

If you are traveling to the same city every week, pick a hotel that you are comfortable in and make friends with the people at the front desk and in Housekeeping. If you can commit to a certain number of weeks, they might even give you a break on the room rate, which is also good for your customer.

Once you've tried two or three different rooms in different parts of the hotel, you'll begin to identify specific things you like or dislike. Within a few weeks, you'll probably have a favorite room. Don't be afraid to ask for it every week. Staying in the same room every week can increase your sense of comfort and it's easier to remember what room you are in. Every one of us has been frustrated at least once by trying to open a hotel room door, only to realize that the key doesn't work because this is the room we were in last week, and we have no idea what room we have been assigned this week.

If you followed our instructions for packing and bought duplicates of all your toiletries and travel needs, you can check a suitcase with the bellman over the weekend instead of carrying it home with you. Leave your laundry with a dry cleaner over the weekend and come back on Monday to a fresh wardrobe without carrying a bag with you to the airport. That's freedom!

Make friends with the people who have control of the food. If you are eating all your meals off the Room Service menu, you will soon get bored with the choices. Encourage the person who answers the Room Service line to give you suggestions.

When Christine was working in one city where it wasn't considered safe to leave the hotel and wander around at night, she called the Room Service number one night and said, in the most pitiful voice she could muster, "I'm hungry and nothing on the menu looks good tonight. Help me!"

The Room Service voice laughed and said, "Miss Lambden, don't you worry. After all these months, I know what you like. Let me surprise you."

In addition to the best steak and the freshest salad ever served by Room Service, the waiter brought a glass of red wine and said, "The chef said to tell you that he knows you don't like red wine, but this is special. Try it with the steak. Alternate one bite of steak with one sip of wine."

She still talks about that steak. After that night, she never had to look at the Room Service menu again. When she called, she would say, "Maybe a fish tonight?" or "I'm in the mood for something chocolate."

Remember, if you are tired of the hotel menu, just imagine how the chef feels.

Since you can't eat all the time, here are some other ways to fill an evening in a hotel room:

Call your mother.
Read.
Go to a movie.
College libraries are often open late. Learn something.
Work out. Remember the Freshman Fifteen in college? The life of a consultant includes too many meals in restaurants and too few long walks in the park.

If you exercise at home, try to exercise the same way when you are traveling. Find out if it's safe to walk/run outside near the hotel. This is also a great way to find the neighborhood restaurants and pubs that the travel books don't know about.

If you exercise in a gym at home, stay in a hotel with a gym and use it. If there is no gym available in the hotel, remember that many national chains have memberships that allow you to work out in any city. Like national hotel and restaurant chains, gyms are a great way to find familiar surroundings in an unfamiliar place.

Exploring new cities is a great way to get exercise and enjoy your time on the road. See the sights. Shop. Ask the people at the hotel and at work what you should be sure to see while you are in town.

We know one consultant who managed, in one year, to see Niagara Falls (working in Buffalo), the Arch in St. Louis, the Napa Valley wine country, six shows on Broadway, and Fort Lauderdale during Spring Break.

Did you know that Kansas City is the City of Fountains? In the winter, the city slowly freezes some of the fountains so you see frozen ice where water flows in the summer. Just beautiful.

Did you know that you can visit the Budweiser Clydesdales at Grant's Farm in St. Louis? If you think they are fun to watch on Super Bowl commercials, just imagine how magnificent they are up close.

These opportunities may not present themselves again. Don't spend every evening in your hotel room.

Every city has something unique to offer and the people who live there will be happy to help you discover what is wonderful about their hometown.

Single Life on the Road

The constant-travel lifestyle is often more appealing to single people who do not have a family at home waiting for them each week. For these consultants, the only challenge is finding a way to maintain a home when you aren't there during the week.

Here are some tips:

Ask a friend or neighbor to pick up your mail once or twice during the week.
Install automatic light timers in your house. Install motion sensor lights outside. This makes it look like someone is home and protects your stuff. (It also makes bats and possums find another yard to live in, but that might just be an Austin thing.)
Hide valuables. Burglars know all about looking in the freezer for your jewelry, but would they think to look in that bag of potting soil in the garage? Hint: Tell someone you trust where you hid them...you'll remember all the great spots you considered, and you'll forget the one you picked.
Splurge a little with all that money you are making as a consultant and hire a maid service to come in and clean your house while you are gone. If you have a lawn, hire a yard service, too. The last thing you are going to feel like doing when you finally get home is housework, and you'll be happier in this job if you don't feel that you are neglecting chores.
If possible, have a trusted house-sitter stay in your house. Then you won't have to worry at all.

In addition to maintaining your house, a single person on the road has to maintain a social life. When you are out of town all week, it's easy to find yourself excluded from your friends' conversations about plans for the weekend. You have to work harder to maintain those friendships at home, especially if you are also forming new friendships in the city where you are working.

It's not totally unheard of for consultants assigned to the same client week after week to form friendships, or even romantic attachments, in the city where they work. Having bonds with people all over the country can be a huge advantage professionally because your network is expanded to include all of their colleagues, as well.

Don't date someone in the client company. This can get messy. (Yeah, we know. Your situation is different. You'll handle it like grownups. We'd like to believe this, but in our experience it rarely works out that way. Even so, this is still good advice for everyone else.)

Married With Children

Life on the road is harder for those who have a family at home. You miss them and you feel guilty about leaving them behind, and even more guilty when you're having fun without them.

The same tourist attractions that enliven a single person's travel can make you miss your family even more. You find yourself thinking, "The kids would love this," or "Niagara Falls by myself? I don't think so!"

Here are some tips for making travel easier when you miss your family:

Write long letters saying all the stuff you would have said if you were at home. Buy a fax machine for the house so you can send them before you go to bed and the family can read them with breakfast. (We know. Email works just as well. Except it doesn't. Handwritten letters mean more. They just do.)
Give the hotel's fax number to your family or set up a personal e-fax number. Encourage letters from home. Also drawings and report cards and anything else that will make you feel closer. Almost all children could benefit from the occasional writing exercise, and most of them already know how to operate a computer.
Buy a small digital camera or use your cell phone to take pictures and make a "Day in the Life" slide show for the kids. Take pictures of your day from the time you wake up to the time you prepare for bed - pictures of your hotel room, your breakfast plate, your cubicle and co-workers, the bookstore you stop at after work, the restaurants you like - everything! (Trust us, they'll love it.)

Driving in Strange (translation: "New To You") Places

Weather conditions and driver courtesy rules vary from city to city. In some cities, driving is a brutal competition, and it's considered rude or suicidal to slow down for a yellow light. Someone will honk at you or run into you. In others, you'll get dirty looks if you don't yield and let a waiting car merge in front of you. On most country roads, failure to wave at passing drivers marks you as an outsider.

No matter where you are, these tips will help lessen the impact of driving during your travels:

Get a map when you arrive. If you know where you are going, you are much less likely to end up in the wrong place.
If you rear-end a car on the freeway, your first move should be to hang up the phone. Better yet, go hands-free when you are driving. Best of all, hang up and drive.
Rent your car from the same agency every week and be extra nice. Usually, the same agents are on duty every Monday morning, so eventually they'll know you and may offer you the cool convertible or the Jag for a week at no extra charge.
Not every state or city has a "right on red" law. Check with the car rental agency or look for a "No right on red" sign before you assume it's legal in any intersection where you are.
If you are stopped for speeding, running a red light, driving the wrong way, or, worst of all, hitting something, be very polite to everyone involved. Of course, this is true when you aren't traveling, too, but you have a better chance of making your meeting or flight if you deal with the situation nicely.

In New York or Boston (or London or Beijing), take a cab or public transportation. Some warnings say "Don't try this at home." With regard to driving in these places, the rule is "Don't try this on the road." In other words, ask someone at your destination or consult a travel guide to find out whether it's advisable to drive yourself around.

If you are facing your first winter in a snowy climate, ask someone to teach you how to drive in icy conditions before the first blizzard. You may feel foolish, and they will definitely laugh at you, but the first time you feel your car start to slide, you'll be glad you did.

For us, just saying "I'm from Texas" is often enough to have our clients offer free driving lessons, icy conditions or not.

Air Travel Tips

Since 9/11, keeping track of the rules for air travel and getting through Security checkpoints has become more of a challenge, but the airlines have made a sincere effort to help.

Every airline and airport website has information about security requirements and how much time will be required to get to your gate. Experienced travelers quickly learn to avoid the busiest times of the day and week. In fact, we don't know a single traveling consulting who would consider flying on the day before Thanksgiving under any circumstances.

Airport websites will also give you information about other amenities that are available in the terminals. For instance, did you know that the Hong Kong airport has showers and rooms where you can take a nap? After a long flight across the Pacific ocean, a shower is a wonderful way to spend your three-hour layover between connecting flights.

The airport in Portland, Oregon, has a great mall. You can get all your Christmas shopping done between flights and have the items you bought shipped home. Oh, and did we mention that Oregon doesn't have sales tax?

The San Francisco airport has twenty different museum galleries that rotate art, culture and science exhibitions on a regular schedule. At SFO, you can't avoid being entertained and educated while you travel.

Here are some other tips for making air travel easier:

When you make your reservations, ask for a seat near the front of the plane. Airlines assign seats back-to-front and families traveling with children tend to plan further ahead than business travelers, so the shrieking three year-olds are usually in the back of the plane.
Always request the Exit Row. Children aren't permitted, and you get more legroom.
Wear earplugs or invest in some good noise-canceling headphones if you plan to sleep. People talk louder on airplanes.
Planes have only 3% humidity, so you get dehydrated quickly. Carry a bottle of water on board. (This will also keep your feet from swelling.) To keep costs and carryon weight low, carry an empty bottle and ask the flight attendant to fill it for you. On international flights, there is usually a water fountain available for passengers to serve themselves.
When they say, "Limit two carry-on bags," assume they really mean it and be prepared to check everything but your purse, briefcase and laptop. A good alternative if you are in a hurry is to "gate check" your bags. Especially with smaller commuter flights, this means you get your bags immediately when you get off the plane with no stop at baggage claim.
Pay attention to the safety speech every once in a while. Like washing your car to make it rain, it's just good karma. We've asked, and yes, most flight attendants feel just as silly giving the speech as you do listening to it, but the fact that no one is listening just makes their job harder.
To prevent a stiff neck from sleeping on a plane, ask the flight attendant for a blanket, roll it up and wrap it around your neck before you fall asleep. Your head won't roll from side-to-side, you won't snore and you won't look nearly as ridiculous as those people drooling on their neighbor's shoulder. They make C-shaped pillows that do this, but that's just one more thing to carry with you. We prefer to travel light.

While you are traveling, do everything you can to make your life easier. When you are enjoying yourself, you are better prepared to perform at work, and you'll be more successful.

Cubicles and conference rooms are the same everywhere. The work won't change, but taking the time to make friends with the people around you, at work and at the hotel, will make all the difference in the world to how well you do it.

Belfast City has changed in quite an unimaginable way over the last ten years. It has gone from a city that was torn apart by troubles and strife into a vibrant and changed city. The city is now rich with hotels, bars and restaurants and any visitor is guaranteed a hearty and warm welcome. These along with the rich history of Belfast makes the city an ideal place to visit. There is something here for everyone to see and do.

There are literally over a hundred hotels in Belfast that will suit all pockets. Prices range from as cheap as ?39 for a room right up to the best five star hotels so again something to suit everyone. For eating there are small well priced cafes right up to Michelin Star restaurants and all tastes are catered for including French, Italian, Chinese, Indian and traditional Irish restaurants.

During the day there are many attractions to see and include:

1. The Ulster Museum (free admittance)
2. Queen’s University
3. Botanic Gardens
4. Titanic Quarter
5. Cathedral Quarter
6. Crown Bar
7. Belfast City Hall
8. Linen Hall Library
9. Saint Anne’s Cathedral
10. The Odyssey

These are only some of the attractions and there are also many tours including a Titanic Tour, the main Belfast City tour including a view of the famous Belfast Murals and Troubled areas, Ghost tours, tours of The Lagan, Pub Tours and many many more.

When visiting Belfast it doesn’t take long to begin to understand the history of its troubled past and I know you will find a warm and welcoming people. I have no doubt that you may have seen the bad side of Belfast on the new’s stations throughout the years. If that is all you have ever seen I can clearly understand why anyone would be afraid to come and visit our city. It has changed now and thankfully changed for the better. Today it is safe to walk around Belfast and then go out at night for a meal and a few drinks.

I have met many people from England, Scotland, Europe and Canada and they have been amazed when they actually come here and saw what Belfast is really like. They could not believe just how small the city was and most importantly how friendly the people were. You will not be able to sit in a bar in Belfast without getting into a conversation about something. That is the way we are! We love to see people visit our city and we do like to talk!

The Troubles as they were known are now behind us it seems. It took many years to leave that past behind us but once that happened, then Belfast quickly changed. It is alive now and the city has gone through a massive regeneration. Many of the old historic sites in the city have been refurbished, the Lagan River has been fully cleaned and is now a joy and there is now a great buzz in the city. Coffee shops, major stores, new shopping centres have all developed and grown in the last ten years and there is now a full city experience.

The city is surrounded by mountains and sits on Belfast Lough which then reaches out to the Irish Sea. In two hours you can be in Dublin and in less than an hour you can be at the Giant’s Causeway, so Belfast is a great place to make your holiday base. Public transport is good and Belfast is serviced by two airports and a Ferry port giving easy access to Scotland, England and Wales.

The currency used in Belfast is the ? sterling. In Dublin it is the Euro so you will need to change some money when visiting the Irish Republic. A typical lunch in Belfast will cost around ?4-7 depending on what you need. A cup of coffee costs around ?1.25 with tea being slightly cheaper. An evening meal with a bottle of wine averages out around ?40-50 but does depend on what you want. A pint of Guinness costs about ?3.50 and will be one of the best you have ever tasted. I know that from all the practise that I get!

There are some cracking golf courses with the average green fees around ?30. Courses like Royal Portrush and Royal Belfast will of course be more expensive at around ?100 a round.

You can also do river and sea fishing, surfing, hiking, horse riding and there are some fabulous beaches. I can not however guarantee the weather as it rains a lot. The best times for weather are usually May to September but even then it rains a lot. That is why we have an old Belfast saying that states, “It doesn’t rain in the pubs.”

Other sites to visit that are within an hour’s drive or train or bus journey are:

1. The Marble Arch Caves
2. Derry’s famous City Walls
3. Carrick-A-Rede Ropebridge
4. Giant’s Causeway
5. Green Glens of Antrim
6. Ulster Folk and Transport Museum
7. American Folk Park
8. Portaferry Aquarium
9. Armagh Planetarium
10. Bushmill’s Distillery

You will never be stuck for something to do and your schedule can be as relaxed or as busy as you chose it to be. I trust this article has given you a good insight into Belfast as it is today and not as it has been portrayed on the news for many years.

Some of the historic buildings that we recommend viewing in Belfast City:

Queens Quarter Area – Take a visit to the Queens Quarter Area, the architectural centre of Belfast. The Queens Quarter contains some very impressive buildings including the 100 year old Queens University Buildings, where the impressive Lanyon Building is located – a must see.

A trip to the Queens Quarter is never complete without a visit to the Botanic Gardens, with its stunning glasshouse buildings, including the Palm House, which is Dome shaped and created by Charles Lanyon. Not only are these buildings impressive, you will be astounded by the plant life too!

The Linen Hall Library – a must visit on your trip to Belfast. With its impressive architecture from the 19th century as well as new renovations, plus various artefacts and over 250,000 volumes of books.

Stormont Parliament Buildings – The seat of the present Northern Ireland Assembly. Why not take a stroll around the grounds here?

Grand Opera House Belfast – A listed building, this has undergone major renovations and extension to the concert venues since the early 1980?s. Originally designed by architect Frank Matcham, it was opened in December 1895. Why not catch a show here and enjoy the venue even more?

Belfast City Hall – The City Hall is designed in a Renaissance style and was completed in 1906 after nearly 7 years in the making. Rectangular in shape and constructed with Portland stone, it’s located in the city centre. City Hall is currently undergoing restoration work but it’s scheduled to re-open in 2009.

St. Anne’s Cathedral – Why not take a trip to the Cathedral Quarter of the city and view the impressive Church of Ireland St. Anne’s Cathedral. The whole quarter is a charming area with old cobbled streets, and stunning architecture. The area is pedestrianised so you can stroll

Albert Memorial Clock – The most alluring timepiece in the city, it was constructed over a 5 year period in Victorian style as a memorial to Queen Victoria’s husband Prince Albert. It’s known as Belfast’s own “leaning tower” as it veers slightly to the left!

Harland and Wolff Shipyard - Take a trip to the place where the doomed liner the Titanic was built. There are plans afoot to regenerate the whole area into the Titanic Quarter of Belfast, to further entice visitors!

Crumlin Road Courthouse and Gaol – Why not take a trip to the foreboding Victorian buildings where many prisoners have been housed since it’s opening in 1850. A monument to the scales of justice is atop the building! It closed its doors as a prison in 1996 and since then has been open for tours.

Belfast Custom House – Designed by the esteemed Sir Charles Lanyon, it was built 150 years ago in a Renaissance style. Take a stroll round the pedestrianised square and appreciate the full beauty of the building!

Guangzhou Day Trip from Hong Kong

Macau is arguably the most popular day trip from Hong Kong. However, if you have been to Macau and don't feel like going back for another visit, a good day trip alternative is to take a 2 hour train ride to Guangzhou.

Guangzhou's rich historical heritage makes it a favorite among day trippers. It has plenty of attractions to delight visitors of varying interests. Whether you are interested in history, natural scenery or simply want to chill out and enjoy a pleasant city vibe, this city will surely not disappoint.

If you are into temples, museums and shrines, you will have plenty to explore when visiting Guangzhou. There is the ancient Temple of the Six Banyan Trees that are believed to date back to 537 AD of the Liang Dynasty. The structure's sheer age is an attraction in itself but tourists go to the Temple to take a look at the city's highest pagoda.

The Chen Family Temple is another major temple attraction. It is a complex of 19 buildings that hold valuable exhibits consisting of ancient artifacts, artwork, jewelry and jade carvings. Other interesting temples include Temple of the Five Celestial Beings and the Guangxiao Temple.

Not interested in another Asian market with the usual knock-offs and cheap merchandise? You just might change your mind with Qing Ping Market. You will not find the usual market merchandise here - Qing Ping is a herbal medicine market where you will be astounded at the sight of rows of countless exotic animals - dried and alive - and a profusion of leaves, twigs and powders from different kinds of plants most of which you may not even know exist!  If you are into the bizarre, its going to be one of the highlights of your trip.

Performing arts enthusiasts should check out a Cantonese Opera performance. Of course, the words are all in the Chinese language but when everything else is breathtaking, so it is not really that important what the actors are actually saying.

How about chilling out in an island with a charming colonial vibe?  You can have that too in Guangzhou. Hop on a ferry to Shamian Island right smack in the heart of the Pearl River. European inspired buildings adorn the area and there are many open air cafes in where you can sit back and enjoy the pleasant ambiance. On your way back to the city, take a night cruise along the river and enjoy the romantic play of the city's lights against the water.

If you want to be closer to nature, you can't miss a visit to Yuexiu Park. It features verdant hills, serene lakes and beautifully tended gardens. There are also many sculptures, antiques and beautifully constructed traditional buildings scattered around for visitors to enjoy. The best time to visit is during autumn because the flowers are in full bloom and a flower exhibition is usually celebrated during the season.

Other Guangzhou attractions worth visiting include the lush greenery of the White Clouds Mountain, the imposing Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall and the scenic Martyr's Memorial Garden.

Getting Lost in Hanoi

Amidst the bustling streets of Hanoi and the countless mopeds and bicycles moving around, you may soon find yourself overwhelmed and quite lost in the city. 

Some get discouraged and immediately hop on the nearest van and set off to the more tranquil and eerily beautiful Halong Bay. It may not be obvious at first glance, but Hanoi has several attractions worth seeing and its charm will grow on you if you give it a chance. So, rather than escape the hubbub straight away, do get lost in the city for a while and you will notice  yourself enjoying what it has to offer.

Its modern developments may be completely devoid of beauty and allure but the charm of Hanoi's rich cultural and historical heritage more than make up for it. Check out the city's Old Quarter and experience what it was like to live in the 13th century in this part of the world.

Its narrow and winding roads were not just ordinary thoroughfares but a representation of the social status of those residing therein back then. Merchants were grouped together, so were the carpenters with their fellow carpenters and sculptors with the other sculptors.  Check out the street names and you will have a pretty good idea of the guild it was specially designated for.

Walk around the compact area and discover wonderful enclosed markets as well as ancient structures now housing charming cafes, boutiques and shops. Notice how the shops are very narrow at the entrance but seem to go on and on in length. That is how merchants tried to escape taxes back in the day. These shops are not just for show, there are actually plenty of interesting and lovely merchandise you can buy here such as intricately designed jewelry, exquisite silk textiles and superb handicrafts among others.

If you go south from the Old Quarter, you will soon discover the laid-back calm of Hoan Kiem Lake right at the nucleus of the city center. This is a perfect place to get your bearing while you enjoy the picturesque view of the placid waters and lakeside atmosphere.

For a bit of history, visit the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. His remains are encased in glass and are open to the public. Do note that he is an esteemed and beloved hero so expect rigid security measures and a non-negotiable dress code. If you don't care for mausoleums, you can just visit the nearby Ho Chi Min Museum.

Another popular attraction in Hanoi is the One Pillar Pagoda at Ba Dinh District. It was built in honor of Emperor Ly Thai Tong. The pagoda is artistically built to resemble the shape of a lotus flower. Also a major historical and religious landmark in the city is the Temple of Literature. It has served disciples of Confucius for centuries and still continues to be a major pilgrimage site for believers. It dates back to the 11th century but it has retained its grandeur and splendor to this day.

The major attractions of Halong Bay, Sa Pa and Bac Ha are just hours away from Hanoi. So, you can easily be on your way after your short tour of the city.
