Anyone who are visiting Quy Nhon City, Binh Dinh province must make plans to come to the nearby Eo Gio for a number of reasons.

About 50 million years or so ago, Costa Rica was a series of underwater volcanoes. Over thousands and thousands of years, layers built up until eventually they surfaced and continued to grow, just as the Hawaiian Islands do today. The Cocos Plate shoving its way underneath the Caribbean Plate also helped things along, pushing Central America out of the sea floor. Eventually, a recent 3 million years ago, Costa Rica emerged from the sea creating a continuous bridge between North and South America

Wake up, Cuba: The Dominican Republic may be stealing your business. While your tourism numbers were flat for 2012, visits to the D.R. were up almost 6%, and travel from the United States leaped 14%.

Why?

First, let's look at what made the D.R. rock even before this surge:

• Punta Cana, Puerto Plata, Samana, and other areas of the Dominican Republic offer some of the most affordable beach resorts in the Caribbean. And contrary to stereotypes, the choices are not limited to mass-market all-inclusi

The Canaries are a delightful adventure of the best activities, beaches, culture and cuisine.

It is highly likely that once you’ve been on a holiday to the Canaries, you may be tempted just to set up permanent camp at one of the amazing beach resorts. Do so, but, but make sure you don’t miss to roll around the vast dunes of Gran Canaria‘s Maspalomas, enjoy the waterfalls of the delightful Los Tiles bioreserve on La Palma.

It’s all too easy to land in the Canary Islands and, taken by the feeling of

By Angie Picardo

As Airbnb says, "Find a Place to Stay."
And with participants in 34,183 cities in 192 countries, it's small wonder that the site has become the "go to place" for places to stay. And what may make the popular short term rental site even more popular, is its clever inclusion of neighborhood guides for cities all around the world, just in case a traveler is unsure where to travel to.

The mention of coral reefs usually brings to mind crystal-clear, warm tropical waters, bright colorful fish and coral … maybe even the movie, "Nemo." Coral reefs form such vast, diverse ecosystems that they are commonly called the "rainforests of the oceans."

Like the rainforests on land, coral reefs are extremely threatened by humans' actions and climate change. Since the late 1970s, coral reefs across the world have been dying at an unprecedented rate, and it only seems to be getting worse, acc

One of my favourite places visited on my recent trip to South Africa was Grootbos Nature Reserve.

I was expecting a very rustic lodge type property with basic service and how I was wrong! Grootbos is set within a 23 hectare Milkwood forest and it is stunning. It was originally a farm with some decrepit outbuildings subsequently bought by a Capetonian for a ‘project’ in the 90s and it has grown since then.

The first thing you notice is its very modern building hidden within the thick forest and the

Certainly Cuba has no shortage of charming Spanish colonial and early post-colonial architecture, from Pinar del Ríoout west to Santiago in the east. But for me the place that most makes me feel like I’ve actually stepped into the past of a century or more ago is Trinidad (Spanish for “trinity”), an almost ridiculously photogenic UNESCO World Heritage Site which in 2014 will commemorate its 500th anniversary.  In the province of Sancti Spiritus, on the south coast of the island’s midsection, i

This is Vietnam’s second nicest grotto, after the Huong Tich Grotto in Ha Tay province”, Kinh Le Canh Hung said. Another name of Tam Coc- Bich Dong “A terrestrial Ha Long Bay” is also called. Today, lots of tourists in Vietnam travel have been being attracted to this place because of its marvelous landscapes and considerate services.

In 1773, Mr. Nguyen Nghiem (the father of the great writer Nguyen Du) visited this cave. After viewing the whole scenery of the mountains, waterways, fields, and sky

Kim Boi, one of the districts of Hoa Binh province, is said to be granted with a natural hot spring by the Nature. The hot spring is now a tourist spot which “can-not-be-ignored” if staying in Hoa Binh. Putting aside all the tensions and troubles of life, tourists will feel relax and comfortable when soaking themselves in Kim Boi Hot Spring.

The mineral water continually spouts from the fountains, normally between 340C and 360C. According to some scientific tests, Kim Boi water resources are qual
