Trang An located about 3 km away from the ancient capital of Hoa Lu, is a wonderful landscape. Road from Trang An to Ninh Binh is very long and smooth and both sides of the road are the newly planted trees with premature green leaves.
We arrived at Trang An at noon but the atmosphere here is very cool with charming scenery of the majestic mountains reflecting the calm and clean water surface. On waterfront, there are many blue boats making the scenery more charming as a nice picture.

Trending in recent years among brides and grooms is leaving behind the traditional, large, 250-person, fancy church, banquet hall wedding in favor of a fun, exotic destination wedding that adds the adventure of a sunny honeymoon vacation.
Couples choose to go out-of-town for many reasons, including basic economics. You would think that staging a wedding in another country would break the bank, but in most cases, only close friends and family attend these celebrations; thus, sparing couples from t
Durante el pasado mes de noviembre, la Alianza Francesa en Managua fue la sede de la VIII Bienal de Artes Visuales Nicaragüenses (BAVNIC 8). Contó con los proyectos de cinco protagonistas, un colectivo de 4 creadores y una artista invitada. Asimismo, como jurado se involucró un panel de expertos internacionales provenientes de Colombia, Costa Rica y Guatemala. El gran recibimiento que obtuvo la actividad fue motivo de júbilo para la Fundación Ortiz-Gurdián, organizadora del evento.

Thoughts of Switzerland don’t normally evoke images of verdant olive groves. But Lugano, Switzerland’s southern-most city is situated on the Italian border with mild Mediterranean-like temperatures. You can sense Italy’s cultural influence not only in the obvious primary language spoken but in the village bustle clustered around top end boutique shops and historic food markets like Gabbani's Gourmet Store (great olive selection) lining Via Nassa and Via Cattedrale. The landscape is studded with
Goa..., a tiny emerald land on the west coast of India situated between the borders of Maharastra and Karnataka, is better known to the world at large as the former Portuguese enclave on the Indian soil. With the rule of the Portuguese for over 450 years and the consequential influence of the Latin culture, Goa presents a somewhat different picture to the foreign visitor than any other part of the country. Not only the proportion of Christians (almost all of whom are Catholics) in the total popu

In February 2009, Martinique and its sister island Guadeloupe took an unaccustomed turn in the world's headlines with heated general strikes over inequality and the cost of living, resulting in the first ever cancellation of Martinique's Carnival. The poobahs in Paris responded by raising salaries and other concessions, President Nicholas Sarkozy paid a conciliatory visit last summer, and things pretty much returned to normal.
So when I headed down to check things out a couple of weeks ago, I f
Although, our world has always been on the evolution; but the evolution in last two decades certainly outclass the one took place in last hundred years. Now, what makes these twenty years stand out? Just one thing and that is information technology. Since the inception of information technology and since it has become an integral part of our lives, our world is not the same like before and will never be again.
Each and every aspect of our life is dominated by this phenomenon. A decade ago, had a

I don’t know about you, but I’m doing a happy dance this week along with the rest of nature in Costa Rica. The rains have returned! The land here welcomes the beginning of “Green Season” like a parched traveler finally reaching a watering hole after a long dry desert-crossing.
My gardens are thrilled … if I can get a little anthropomorphic. The flowers seem to stand straighter, as if to drink in the rain even better. After just 3 afternoons of rain this week, already millions of tiny fluorescent
