I have just walked in a public park in Beijing and I was really captured by the beauty of this small park. People would just easily miss it because of the many attractions of the big city. Both humans and birds could hide in the depths of the reeds, fleeing from the noise of the city. Of course, there is also a small island that reminded me of my old childhood desires. It was so good walking around. I spent a really nice, refreshing time there. #naturalwonders #travel #park #water

Mount Bromo is one of Indonesia’s most iconic and active volcanoes, located in East Java and part of the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park. Famous for its epic sunrise views and surreal volcanic terrain, it offers a truly unforgettable adventure that feels like stepping onto another planet🪐 We stayed at Plataran Bromo hotel and started our journey where early-morning jeep tours begin around 3am. It took half an hour to reach the Bukit Cinta Sunrise Viewpoint to wait for the sunrise. The tour then continue to the Mount Bromo crater itself. Tourist may choose to walk but I chose to took a horseback ride through the sea of sand to reach the staircase leading to the crater. The climb to the crater involves a short but steep walk, followed by around 250 steps. The view from the top? Breathtaking in every way🔥 You’ll witness a live smoking volcano, feel the chill of the morning air, and be rewarded with one of the most dramatic landscapes in Southeast Asia. It’s a must-do for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone craving a unique bucket list adventure🌋 💡Pro Tips: 📌 Bring warm clothes (it’s freezing before sunrise) 📌 Wear a mask or scarf for the dust 📌 Book your jeep in advance (it gets busy during peak season!) #indonesia #indonesiatrip #surabaya #mtbromo #mountbromo #volcano #volcanoviews #volcanoadventure #volcanoesjava #volcanohike #volcanotrip #travel #naturalwonders #thingstodo #horseriding #sunrise #iphonephotography #summervacay

It was a long but totally worth-it 12-hour trip filled with stunning coastal views and iconic stops. Our first highlight? The Split Point Lighthouse — absolutely picture-perfect! Couldn’t resist taking some shots there with the dramatic cliffs and endless ocean as the backdrop. Next, we made a quick stop at the famous Great Ocean Road Memorial Arch at Eastern View. That’s the classic spot with the iconic wooden signage — a must for anyone doing this road trip. Fun fact, it was built to honour the WWI servicemen who constructed the road. 🇦🇺 The weather was a little moody that day — drizzles here and there — but honestly, that made it even more magical. We even caught a rainbow stretching across the Pacific Ocean. Nature showing off! 🌈 For lunch, we stopped by Apollo Bay, grabbed some burgers and fries, and soaked in the small town charm. Such a peaceful spot to recharge before the final leg. The grand finale? The breathtaking 12 Apostles. No photos or videos can truly capture how stunning that view is in real life — towering limestone stacks surrounded by crashing waves. Hands down, the best part of the whole trip. 🌊✨ Long ride? Yes. Worth every second? Absolutely. Highly recommend this if you’re ever in Melbourne. #travel #naturalwonders #thingstodo #familytravel

#hongkonghotel If you're looking for a wallet-friendly stay in Hong Kong with easy access to transportation and a rooftop pool, Ramada Harbour View offers decent value—though it comes with a few quirks. Rooms are very compact, even by Hong Kong standards. While they’re kept clean and tidy, the space is limited, making it tricky to manage larger suitcases. Beds are on the firmer side, and although some rooms are labeled as harbour view, the outlook can sometimes be partially blocked by nearby buildings. Still, for solo travelers or those planning to be out most of the day, the space may suffice. Bathrooms come with rain showers and basic toiletries, but storage space is minimal. The hotel provides complimentary coffee and tea, though occasional issues with restocking towels and supplies have been reported. Wi-Fi is included, though the signal can be inconsistent in certain parts of the building. A standout feature is the rooftop pool. It offers great views of the surrounding city and is usually uncrowded, making it a peaceful spot to cool down. There’s also a small gym and a 24-hour front desk. Breakfast is available on-site, but the offerings are quite limited. Items may run out quickly during peak hours, and variety is lacking. Most guests prefer to explore local cafes or grab a quick bite nearby. The location is a strong point. Situated in Sai Wan, the hotel is within walking distance to Sheung Wan, the Macau ferry terminal, trams, and not far from the MTR. It’s relatively easy to reach Central or Tsim Sha Tsui using public transport. Staff are generally polite and helpful, though experiences can vary. One common complaint is the elevator system—during busy hours, the wait can be long and frustrating. Ramada Hong Kong Harbour View is best suited for budget-conscious travelers who don’t mind small rooms and are planning to explore most of the time. It offers great value if you just need a convenient place to rest with a rooftop pool bonus. If space, breakfast variety, or smooth elevator access is important to you, you may want to consider other options. #hongkong #myitinerary #citydaytours #afternoonteatime #ramada #hotel #couplestrip #beachlife #naturalwonders #thingstodo #seascapes #familytravel #poolhotel #resorts #localfood #buffets #china

There’s also a café downstairs that serves breakfast and casual meals, making dining convenient if you’re not heading out. Staff are friendly and responsive, and check-in is typically smooth.

🍃 Pu’er Tea Mountains No trip here is complete without a visit to one of the tea mountains. We walked through misty rows of old tea trees, tasted leaves straight from the source, and sat down with locals who’ve been making Pu’er tea for generations. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Felt sacred, slow, and deeply grounded. Nothing commercial about it. 🏡 Nakeli Ancient Village A small, sleepy old village — cobblestone streets, old wooden homes, and the sound of water running nearby. You don’t go here to “do” anything — just wander, breathe, maybe sip tea under a tree. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Quiet gem. Not much to post on social, but something stays with you 💎 🌲 Pu’er National Park This place is huge and filled with surprises — tropical rainforest vibes, winding forest paths, and if you’re lucky, wild peacocks. You can rent bikes or just hike slowly through the trees. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Clean air, no noise. You forget your phone 📱 after a while. 🫖 Tea Culture Center A low-key museum that explains how deep tea runs in Pu’er life. You can smell, touch, and even press your own little tea cake. Good place to learn without being overwhelmed. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ More about feeling than facts. Worth an hour or two ⏰ #yunnanguide #travel #naturalwonders

Tucked in the heart of England, Coventry is a city that quietly blends history, industry, and culture. Once famous worldwide for its textiles and later, its car manufacturing, Coventry is far more than just a former industrial powerhouse. Though much of the city’s medieval charm was lost during wartime bombings, Coventry remains a place that invites reflection. One of the most striking sights is the ruins of Coventry Cathedral, left standing as a powerful memorial to the destruction of war. Next to it, a modern cathedral has risen — together, they symbolise both remembrance and hope. The city’s roots stretch back over 1,000 years, beginning with a monastery founded by Earl Leofric and Lady Godiva in 1043. Over time, Coventry grew from a trade town into one of England’s major cities during the Middle Ages. Though few ancient buildings remain, the Guildhall and some 16th-century timber-framed almshouses still offer glimpses of the past. Today, Coventry is more than its history. It’s a city that blends the old and new with an easy-going atmosphere. You’ll find traces of its industrial legacy, but also modern culture, green spaces, and an unexpected artistic side — including memorials, sculptures, and even towers dedicated to poet Tennyson. Whether you’re here to reflect on history, explore hidden heritage, or simply enjoy a quieter slice of English city life, Coventry leaves a subtle yet lasting impression. It’s not flashy, but beneath its surface lies a charm built on resilience, creativity, and quiet pride. #thingstodo #travel #naturalwonders #staycation
