Best Onsen Experience in New Zealand
Onsen Hot Pools Queenstown is a boutique spa that will give you the ultimate relaxation experience. It might be quite pricey as it costs $150 for 2 pax for a one hour exclusive use of an onsen tub, but it is no doubt the best activity that I paid for in New Zealand!
In your private room, there is a retractable roof which allows you to switch from an indoor to an outdoor onsen experience with the push of a button. The moment the roof opens, you will be able to enjoy stunning panoramic views of the mountains across the rivers. We spent most of our time taking photos and I wish I had more time to actually enjoy the onsen experience. If only it wasn’t that pricey.

5 THINGS YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT THE DOLOMITES 🇮🇹🏔️😍
Put on your hiking shoes and get ready for some jaw dropping views 🥹 The Dolomites are the perfect place to visit for adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts! Here are our tips:
🗺️ Places to visit / Things to do:
1. Lago di Braies: The most beautiful lake in the Dolomites which can be accessed by car. The boats can only be rented during summer and are a bit overpriced 😅 It’s worth it though 🛶
2. Lago di Braies: Due to the easy accessibility the lake gets very crowded throughout the day. Either visit early in the morning or before sunset to avoid the crowds 💦
3. Tre Cime di Lavaredo - Basic Hike: Park at Rifugio Auronzo (quite expensive) and walk around the 3 peaks (beginner friendly) 🥾
4. Cave at Tre Cime di Lavaredo: Start the basic hike and go to Dreizinnenhütte. Behind it you can already see the caves. The hike takes very long and depending on the season it can be easy or difficult (we went in May with melting snow and it took 12 hours) 😅
5. Alpe di Siusi: You can only drive up by car if you book a hotel. Otherwise you need to take the cable car 🚠 There are different ones but our favorite is the one from St. Ulrich.
6. Malga Sanon at Alpe di Siusi: Don‘t miss this restaurant with the cute lookout at Alpe di Siusi ❤️
7. The Restaurant also has a swing with an amazing view 🥹
8. Lago di Sopapis 💙 Park at the hotel B&B Passo Tre Croici Cortina and start the hike from there. It‘s not hard but takes 2 hours to reach the lake.
9. Val di Funes 💚 The viewpoint is next to the church Santa Maddalena. Park in the town and walk up the street because it‘s very narrow.
10. Seceda 🏔️ Take the cable car in St. Ulrich (around 35€ pP, dogs allowed with muzzle). The incredible view is next to the station 😍
Other places to see:
-Gardena Pass
-Cadini di Misurina
🚗 How to get around
-To reach all the starting points of the hikes you definitely need a car. Be prepared for high parking fees. cr:wanderlust_samoyed& Contact us for removal

2500 per person, including four nights hotel, we used one night hotel to upgrade the car model, upgraded to GL8, much more comfortable to sit in. (It takes six to seven hours to drive back from Snow Town to Harbin)
The price of the group reported by Ctrip is slightly higher, but it is indeed super reliable, the journey is extremely comfortable, and the driver is very nice.
Essential items: hats, scarves, gloves, warm babies, thermal underwear.
Suggestions: Wear several layers of thermal underwear and sweaters! It's really cold at minus thirty degrees!! A single down jacket really can't stand it!! You can wear a nice fur coat inside the down jacket, and the white fur coat is especially good for taking pictures in the snow

I finally stayed at the excellent check-in hotel of the Kuala Lumpur Twin Towers!
Before going to Kuala Lumpur, my familiar big data quickly locked in my preferences, and major platforms crazily pushed me to the excellent check-in position of the Twin Towers, okay! I was indeed recommended! So I decisively booked the most popular one among them, 'The Face Style Hotel'. This hotel is located in the center of Kuala Lumpur. The infinity pool on the 51st floor is not only an excellent check-in position for the Twin Towers, but also the Kuala Lumpur TV Tower and the 'Modica 118' ranked 'the second tallest tower in the world' are all within sight and shooting range.
In addition to the infinity pool that is very photogenic, the other facilities of the hotel are also commendable. Starting from the room, in the spacious and bright, fully equipped room, there is also a not small kitchen, which is very well equipped, giving me a feeling of being at home, and also making me think about living abroad, it is a 'home on the journey'. Furthermore, it is the hotel's restaurant. There are many dining places in the lobby restaurant, which is convenient for dining. In the building next to the hotel we stayed in (we live in the second phase, and the next door is the first phase), there is also a 'Deep Blue Rooftop Bar' with superb indoor and outdoor views. Here you can enjoy food, drink small wine, and enjoy the high-altitude scenery... all are good choices. Finally, it is the hotel's gym. The hotel's gym can also enjoy the high-altitude scenery. Exercising in a place with excellent environment and wide view, the mood is even more comfortable!
In addition, the hotel's location is also very good, it takes about ten minutes to take a taxi to popular attractions, such as Petaling Street, Ghost Lane, Alor Street, etc., and the Twin Towers can be reached on foot.
The surprises this hotel gave me are really more than one, from the initial intention of checking in the Twin Towers, to discovering various wonderful places, looking forward to the next stay, can harvest more beauty!

High-speed rail direct access! If you don't want to work, come to this secluded Dong village for a few days
Here, there's not too much commercialization
The local customs are primitive and simple
This place is far from the hustle and bustle of the city
There are no crowds of people coming and going.
.
——Travel Guide——
📍Location: Navigate to Zhaoxing Dong Village, Liping County, Guizhou
🚙Transportation: Drive to Zhaoxing Dong Village
🚄High-speed train: Take the high-speed train to Congjiang Station (there is a direct bus to the village at the station entrance)
.
🗺Attractions Recommendation
❶Zhaoxing Dong Village
At first glance, it is very shocking. The entire village is wrapped by terraced fields and mountains. The ecological protection is very good. Dong people can be seen everywhere on the streets selling fruits, full of life. There are five grand Drum Towers in the village, divided according to the rule of one Drum Tower per clan surname: Benevolence, Righteousness, Etiquette, Wisdom, Trust. The five Drum Towers are very spectacular.
.
❷Tang'an Dong Village (Terraced Fields)
This place is even more primitive and mysterious, with almost only the elderly and children remaining. It takes about 20 minutes and 20 yuan for a round trip by car from Zhaoxing Dong Village. The extensive winding terraces are very spectacular when viewed from above.
.
📷Photo Spots:
①Viewing Platform: There is a supreme viewing platform at the entrance of the Dong Village, where you can overlook the entire village.
②Dong Village Rice Fields: There are several rice fields at the entrance where taking a photo with the Dong Village is also very photogenic.
③Drum Tower: There are signs marking the location of the Drum Towers along the way, find a suitable position to take a photo with the Drum Tower.
④Dye Workshop: The dye workshops are uniform in color, with fabrics neatly arranged and hung up to dry, looking like ink paintings.
⑤On both sides of the Dong Village are houses with a small stream in the middle. Walking on the paths on both sides or standing on the stones in the stream is very photogenic.
⑥It is recommended to wear ancient style, Dong village clothing, or simple white clothes with some props for better-looking photos.
.
👉Tips:
Cars from outside cannot enter and must be parked at the Dong Village entrance parking area, then take a sightseeing car to visit.
It is recommended to stay overnight as the night view here is very beautiful. Be sure to protect the ancient town and care for the environment.

Day 2: - Kinrin Lake
- Yufuin Floral Village
- Take the Highways Bus back to Tenjin
- Tenjin Christmas Market
Day 3: - Nanzoin Temple

📸 Since I am traveling alone, I want to take pictures of myself with beautiful views. I don't want to bother others to take my photos and end up with unsatisfactory results. So, I will bring a tripod for my camera.
💍 The important companion for this trip is my remote control ring. It's so convenient and I can take thousands of pictures without worrying about losing it.
👧 As a solo female traveler, Japan is relatively safe, but I still need to take care of myself. I won't stay out too late and will choose safe accommodations. I will also purchase travel insurance.
🗺️ I will research and plan my trip in detail. If I have any questions, I will ask locals for help.
🚄 Lastly, getting lost is normal, right? 😅
💴 Total expenses:
- Airfare: only paid 1530 baht for airport tax due to the voucher I won.
- Accommodation: 2830 baht for 3 nights (1 night at Yufuin Assi and 2 nights at The Breakfast Hotel Tenjin)
- Transportation: 2300 baht
- Food and activities: approximately 12000 baht
- However, including the cost of eating and shopping at the airport, I spent a total of 20000 baht 😂
- I used an IC card for transportation expenses and did not purchase a pass since I only went to Yufuin, which is the farthest destination.
- I took the bus from Tenjin to Yufuin. It costs 3250 yen for one way, but if you buy a round-trip ticket, it will be discounted to 5760 yen. The bus stops at Hakata Station and the airport.

These romantic and tranquil ancient towns are really ideal retirement places. Yunnan is beautiful. If you don't want to be in a crowd during the May Day holiday, come to these 6 ancient towns.

This isn't Morocco, it's a high-value desert hotel in Wuhan that's great for photography
It's not that Morocco is unaffordable
Nor is it that African desert hotels are out of reach
It's just that Wuhan offers great value for money
And the Mulan Grassland in Huangpi offers even better value
If you haven't decided where to go for the Qingming holiday, I suggest you consider staying a night in the Mulan Grassland in Huangpi, Wuhan. A 2-day, 1-night stay is really pleasant.
For most people in Wuhan, the Mulan Grassland is one of the most familiar attractions, especially popular for family trips in Huangpi District.
The scenic area is large, with many activities and experiences to enjoy, as well as performances to watch. It often hosts various events and is one of the vacation destinations around Wuhan.
🎡 Attractions in the scenic area: Mini train, various water activities, horse riding, archery, boat rides, magic carpet, high-altitude activities, etc.;
🐒 Suitable for children: Mini train, petting zoo, horse riding, 'Song of the Clouds' performance, bonfire party, etc.
⛺️ The biggest highlight of the scenic area is the free tent pitching with almost no restrictions on the location
🐶 This is a pet-friendly scenic area;
Since it's a vacation, hotels and B&Bs within the scenic area are essential. The recently launched Moroccan-style desert tent hotel (full name: Yilinnafeiga) is another internet-famous hotel in the Mulan Grassland.
The hotel is located right next to the bonfire party square, with each large white tent serving as a room.
Not only are there various cacti and African 'baobab' trees between the tents, but the ground also has a desert feel. It's worth mentioning that the hotel also has real camels, offering an immersive African desert hotel experience.
The interior style of the hotel also fully embraces the desert theme, with thoughtful decorations.
Though it's a 'tent hotel', it's not simple, and it's quite luxurious.
🪥 Complete toiletries of good quality;
🛁 Independent bathtub, shower, toilet, and washbasin;
🛋️ Chairs or small sofas with unique colors and patterns;
🏨 Beautiful interior environment, spacious, with room types including double rooms, twin rooms, family rooms, etc.;
📷 Great for photography;
The above are the visible advantages💗, but there are also some obvious disadvantages after staying.
❌ Poor sound insulation;
❌ If there are various lights outside the tent, it can significantly affect sleep💤, fortunately, after 8:30 pm, there are no more night performances in the scenic area;
❌ It can be a bit damp during the humid season, after all, it's not a real desert;
❌ Since it's just started operating, there's a strong smell inside; for those who want to experience it, I suggest waiting!
Don't miss Dujiangyan when you travel to Chengdu! A one-day tour itinerary!
The off-season in Dujiangyan is truly an earthly paradise,
with not too many people, making it a great place for taking beautiful photos.
It's perfect for a day trip from Chengdu by high-speed train 🚄,
especially for friends who are visiting Chengdu.
I suggest you definitely set aside one day
for a pilgrimage to the water conservancy project of Dujiangyan.
🚅 Departing from Chengdu Xipu, a high-speed train to Lidui Park Station in Dujiangyan costs only 10 yuan, and it takes just over twenty minutes to get there.
(ps: Dujiangyan Station is a bit farther, so remember to buy a ticket to Lidui Park Station)
First stop: Selfie with a Panda 🐼
Right after coming out of Lidui Park is the popular selfie 🤳🏻 spot with the super cute lying-down giant pandas, where you can take a photo with them.
Second stop: Guanxian Ancient Town
Opposite the selfie spot with the giant panda is Guanxian Ancient Town, where there are many special snacks like fried potatoes, sweet wine rice balls, scallion rolls, soy milk buns... all delicious!
Third stop: Dujiangyan Scenic Area
You really must visit the Dujiangyan Scenic Area, where the scenery throughout is particularly beautiful. Recommended tour route: Qinyan Tower — Erwang Temple — Anlan Suspension Bridge — Fish Mouth — Feisha Weir — Baopingkou — Fulong Temple.
When visiting the Dujiangyan Scenic Area, besides walking and enjoying the scenery, it is also highly recommended not to miss the 'Furong Essence · Shangshan Dujiangyan' performance in the scenic area, a stunning large-scale immersive stage drama with the legend, history, culture, and folklore of the ancient Dujiangyan as the narrative background.
It is divided into 'Ancient Weir Legend', 'Water-Born Tea Fragrance', 'Marketplace Variety', 'Inquiry of Dance and Fans', 'Millennium Change', 'Water Worship and Blessing', which recreates the legendary history of Li Bing and his son leading the construction of the ancient weir 2,279 years ago, and also integrates many Sichuan characteristic performances, such as Sichuan Opera face-changing. After watching it, you really feel it's very exciting and totally worth the ticket price.
The ticket for the Dujiangyan Scenic Area and the Furong Essence · Shangshan Dujiangyan performance are separate. There are two performances each day, one at 11 am and the other at 3 pm, each lasting about fifty minutes.
Fourth stop: Wenmiao Mountain Street
After coming out of the Dujiangyan Scenic Area, you can stroll around the old street of Wenmiao Mountain Street~ There are many retro items here, and it's great for taking photos and checking in.
Fifth stop: South Bridge
You should definitely come and enjoy the evening breeze at South Bridge, which is even more beautiful when the lights are on after dark. With the recent weather, around 7:30 pm, you can see the stunningly beautiful 'Blue Tears'.
After watching the 'Blue Tears', you can have dinner near South Bridge, and then take the high-speed train 🚄 directly back to Chengdu~ The last train 🚄 is at 21:55, which is totally manageable.
Thank you for reading, see you next time 👋🏻
