These places really completed my experience in Utah! 1. Utah State Capitol - Really a huge and grand building that one has to visit! So many memories of old times captured in one place. 2. Cheesecake Factory - The only restaurant that we went to thrice just on this trip alone! The huge selection of cheesecakes flavors just gave me so much joy when I got to taste a handful of them. Honestly, the original was still the best. 3. East High School - One of my trip’s highlight was visiting the filming location of high school musical! We weren’t able to go in because it was still an operating school and it was school holiday period. But we still managed to take many TikTok videos at this very entrance and I’m so happy to have been there! Bonus: We were lucky that our trip coincided with Utah’s Pioneer Day so we had the opportunity to attend festivals and go for a drone show which used the chance to announce Utah as the 2034 winter Olympic location, really an added bonus to my trip! #newyearnewtrip

#northamericatrip Utah may be known for its deserts and iconic red rock landscapes, but its forests and lakes are equally breathtaking, offering a refreshing escape into lush greenery and tranquil waters. A visit to these hidden gems will leave you feeling rejuvenated and awed by the state’s natural diversity. Start your journey in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, a sprawling expanse of pines, aspens, and alpine meadows. This area is a paradise for hikers, with trails like the Mirror Lake Scenic Byway leading you to pristine lakes surrounded by towering peaks. Along the way, you’ll encounter Mirror Lake, a reflective jewel that lives up to its name. Pack a picnic and take a moment to soak in the serenity as the mountains ripple on the water’s surface. For a more off-the-beaten-path experience, visit Bear Lake, often called the “Caribbean of the Rockies” for its vibrant turquoise waters. Nestled between Utah and Idaho, this lake is perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply lounging on the shore. The surrounding forests provide excellent hiking opportunities, with trails offering panoramic views of the lake and its vivid colors. If you’re in southern Utah, explore Fishlake National Forest, home to Pando, the world’s largest single organism—a grove of quaking aspens that share a single root system. Nearby Fish Lake is ideal for fishing, boating, and spotting wildlife, including deer and bald eagles. Utah’s forests and lakes offer more than just scenery—they provide a chance to reconnect with nature and experience the quieter side of this stunning state. Whether you’re hiking, paddling, or simply breathing in the fresh mountain air, you’ll leave feeling inspired and ready to return.

#magicalxmastrip #utah #usa When winter knocks on Utah’s doorstep, it brings a whole new vibe to the state’s famous national parks. Picture this: snowflakes gently dusting the red rock formations, towering hoodoos wrapped in frosty layers, and landscapes that look like they were plucked straight out of a winter wonderland. Take Zion National Park, for example. As the winter chill rolls in, the crowds melt away (pun intended!), leaving you to hike through the canyon in total peace. The red rocks pop against the snow, and you might even spot a deer or two in a cozy winter coat. Meanwhile, Arches National Park? Pure magic. The famous arches and rock formations, usually sun-soaked and desert-dusted, get their own winter makeover with a blanket of snow, making it look like a scene from a snow globe. The best part? You’ll have all the time and space to snap epic photos without the crowds! And let’s not forget Bryce Canyon—the land of hoodoos and fairy-tale landscapes. When winter arrives, these towering rock formations get a frosty crown, turning the park into a snow-covered fantasyland. It’s the kind of place where you can’t help but feel like you’ve stumbled upon a secret winter oasis. So, if you’re looking to escape the usual hustle and bustle, grab your winter gear and head to Utah’s national parks. The snow makes everything more magical, and who wouldn’t want to see red rocks and icy peaks in one epic adventure? Let’s hit the snow!

#holidayseason As the crisp air of fall turns into the cold embrace of winter, Utah’s national parks transform into a winter wonderland that’s nothing short of magical. While Zion, Arches, Bryce Canyon, and the rest of Utah’s iconic parks are known for their stunning landscapes year-round, winter adds a whole new layer of charm. Imagine hiking through the towering red rock formations of Zion as fresh snow dusts the canyon walls, creating a striking contrast against the deep hues of the sandstone. The crowds are thinner, the air is fresh, and the tranquility of the park is unparalleled in winter. Meanwhile, Arches National Park becomes a photographer’s dream, with the delicate snowflakes adding an ethereal quality to the iconic arches and rock formations. The usually crowded spots are now peaceful, and the arches, dusted in snow, look like they’ve come straight out of a winter fairy tale. Don’t forget about Bryce Canyon! Known for its otherworldly hoodoos, this park in winter is something else entirely. Picture the vibrant red and orange spires set against a backdrop of crisp white snow—it’s like nature decided to throw a winter party. Winter also means you can enjoy snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and cozy evenings by the fire. So, if you want to experience Utah’s national parks in a whole new light, grab your winter gear and let the adventure begin. Winter is coming, and it’s time to embrace it in Utah’s most stunning landscapes!

I recently spent an unforgettable day in Kars, Turkey, and it was packed with history, culture, and stunning landscapes. I started my day with a visit to the Ani Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The ancient city, with its impressive churches and city walls, offered a glimpse into the past and breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. Next, I headed to Kars Castle, perched on a hill overlooking the city. The climb was worth it for the panoramic views of Kars and the Aras River. After exploring the castle, I visited the Kümbet Mosque, originally a church, showcasing the rich cultural tapestry of the region. For lunch, I enjoyed some local cuisine at a charming restaurant in the city center. The flavors of Kars cheese and honey were delightful. In the afternoon, I strolled along the Kars River and relaxed in the nearby park, soaking in the serene atmosphere. I ended my day with a visit to the Kars Museum, where I learned more about the city’s history and its role in various historical events. The exhibits were fascinating and well-curated. Overall, my day in Kars was a perfect blend of exploration and relaxation, leaving me with wonderful memories of this unique city.

🎈 Set among otherworldly red rock formations in the Utah desert, Parea Zion, designed by Studio Andrew Trotter, will be an architecturally avant-garde landscape hotel. 🏨 Parea Zion is located just outside Zion National Park🌲, a protected area known for its spectacular canyons carved deep out of the desert floor. ⛲️ The project is planned to cover an area of ​​240 acres and is expected to open in late 2024. It will introduce a series of independent ☁️ units, ranging from bungalows to three-bedroom units, each of which is a carefully ✨designed modern building that seamlessly integrates into the natural environment to enjoy the unique beauty of Zion. 🍰 🎹Architects at Studio Andrew Trotter have collaborated with digital artist 🌲Charlotte Taylor to design a custom home as part of the larger Parea Zion resort complex. Once built, the house will be Taylor’s first architectural 🏯 design realized outside of the digital realm. Each residence will combine the privacy of a private residence with the design and service of a boutique hotel. Centered around a hammam 🏊‍♂️-style spa, Parea Zion will form a wellness-focused oasis in the endless desert 🏝

Actually not lonely at all haha, the hotel staff is abundant and enthusiastic. Unique and lonely is its peculiar geographical location. In the dreamy rock desert of Utah, USA, within a radius of 20 miles, everything belongs to the most beautiful Aman in the world. The hotel was developed in 2005, and all buildings are integrated with desert rocks, natural and simple yet exquisite. Transportation: If you want to go directly to the hotel after getting off the plane, it is best to fly to the small town of Paige where there will be a special car to pick you up, which is also the easiest way. Room type: Terrace Suite with views of the desert and mesa, including an outdoor balcony. Although Amangiri is large in size, there are only 34 suites, so it is recommended to book in advance during holidays. Food: Hotel food and drinks are all-inclusive. (Food except for alcohol) The ingredients for the food provided during breakfast, lunch, dinner, and all day are also air-flown, but the taste of the dishes is heavily influenced by Thai cuisine! Many of them are spicy and sour, which is a bit confusing, but I still ate a lot. Feature: Over 2000 square meters of spa and outdoor swimming pool. You can get close to appreciate the rocks from one billion years ago transformed into a circular swimming pool (Figure 3). The hotel offers activities such as hiking and horseback riding that can be booked in advance. The beauty is indescribable, as if it merges with nature and is surrounded by the vast Gobi and countless stars, falling asleep.
