Let's explore MALDIVES :)

Maldives

Specks of emerald green enveloped by dazzling turquoise waters like scattered beads in the ocean; white powdery beaches, tall palms lean on towards the sea, crystalline white sands giving way to crystal clear waters, shades of turquoise blend flawlessly with deeper hues of blue; pristine coral reefs and some of the most incredible underwater life on our planet.
Rising from the deep blue of the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean are more than a thousand islands and thousands more reefs that form the Maldives.
What better place to relax and enjoy yourself than the romantic dunes that adorn these islands. Imagine a place that is nothing but surf and sun; where paradise meets reality. You can choose any of the ninety resorts islands across the Maldives for your honeymoon or holiday stay; allowing yourself the freedom to explore everything is amazing tropical wonderland has to offer. Everything has been designed with the luxury and comfort of travellers in mind, which is why per capita it is the busiest tourist area in the world. Half a million people every year rediscover this paradise.

The Maldives Islands

Sunny, unique and unspoiled, the Maldives is an archipelago comprising 1,190 low-lying coral islands scattered across the equator, in groups of 26 naturally occurring atolls which are divided into 20 for administrative purposes.
Maldives islands are characterized by a unique coral nature and thus they posses unique tourism resources though in a one-sided way, namely in the submarine and littoral environment of the islands, lagoons and reefs, associated with the year-round tropical climate.
These small, picturesque islands with dense tropical vegetation including shrubs, flowering plants and tall coconut palms surrounded by blindingly white beaches, crystalline lagoons that exhibit all shades of blue is the combination that has acclaimed Maldives as paradise on Earth.

Tourism in Maldives


Tourism which was introduced in 1972 has successfully developed in the past years. The tourism in Maldives has been rapidly growing the number of tourist arrivals and resorts islands over the last ten year period.
On the European market, Maldives today rank among the most attractive travel destinations in the tropics. Maldives offers large natural resources for tourism and encourages eco-tourism to protect the sensitive environment and underwater life.
It is not only divers and snorkelers who enjoy the profuse underwater resources, but also beach tourists are attracted by the nature of the beaches and the climatic conditions as well. This environment really guarantees relaxation and recreation.

The Maldives Honeymoon

Celebrate your special honeymoon in Maldives at the most beautiful and romantic islands of Maldives.
You could enjoy the privacy and intimacy of a secluded, natural setting and a warm inviting atmosphere, where the sunsets are spectacular!
The resorts offer you not only the crystal clear waters and azure blue lagoons, food is tasty and services are excellent.
As a welcome token, almost all resorts offers honeymooners fruit plates and flower decorated rooms on the arrival night – a romantic promise of what lays ahead. On request, resorts also arrange romantic candle-lit dinners on the beach and also champagne breakfast served in the privacy of your own room, to make your romantic holiday memories that will last a lifetime!

Nature Tourism Australia

Hi and Welcome everyone to our blog. In this blog we want to show you the wonderful nature tourism at Australia. We hope you all enjoy our blog.
WELCOME TO SHARK BAY AUSTRALIA
In 1991, Shark Bay was inscribed into the UNESCO World Heritage list in recognition of its outstanding natural beauty, biological diversity, fascinating ecology and unique insights into the Earth's history. Here, you can meet the Monkey Mia dolphins, the world's largest population of dugongs, walk among the largest and oldest living fossils on the planet and discover the 30,000 year history and culture of its Indigenous people.

The only town in the Shark Bay region is Denham. It's an eight hour drive or a two hour flight from Perth and, from here, you can join the Shark Bay World Heritage Drive, taking in all the main attractions. If you don't have wheels, there are plenty of extended tours from Perth, or day and half-day adventures from Denham.

A closer look at this vast landscape will reveal an abundance of rare and unique plant and animal life, some of which are found nowhere else on Earth. It's home to over 100 known species of reptiles and amphibians, 240 varieties of birds, 320 types of fish, 80 different corals and 820 species of plants, including 700 flowering species. Protecting many endangered species, Shark Bay's Francois Peron National Park is one of the most important wilderness areas in Australia. 

Just off-shore, in Shark Bay Marine Park, lies Dirk Hartog Island National Park - a haven for rare burrowing frogs and white fairy wrens, and a top spot for fishing, diving, snorkelling and four-wheel-drive adventures.. Today, you can arrive by barge with your 4WD, chartered flight or in your own boat.

Further south in Shark Bay, you can walk along one of only two beaches in the world formed entirely of tiny white shells, or visit the Hamelin Pool Stromatolites and get a glimpse of life on Earth over 3,500 million years ago.

By far the most popular and spectacular attraction is Monkey Mia, where wild dolphins come in to shore every day to meet and interact with people.

WELCOME TO NINGALOO REEF AUSTRALIA

Go swimming with whalesharks in the pristine waters of the Ningaloo Reef, located on Western Australia's mid north coast.

The area is home to whalesharks between April and July each year. Tours from Coral Bay or Exmouth provide the once in a lifetime opportunity to go swimming with whalesharks, which are the biggest fish in the world. You can also swim with manta rays, see rare turtles, migrating humpback whales, pods of dolphins and vibrant tropical fish.

Tours cater to persons of all ages who possess at least basic swimming skills. The Ningaloo Reef is one of the most reliable destinations in the world to find whalesharks, and swim-with-whaleshark tours boast success rates of close to 95 per cent.

WELCOME TO MOUNT AUGUSTUS AUSTRALIA

The world's largest monolith, Mount Augustus, is twice the size of Uluru. It's an awesome sight, whether you're gazing up at the 860-metre high summit from its 49-kilometre scenic base trail (four wheel drive only) or snapping shots from the Emu Hill Lookout. At sunrise and sunset the colours change from cool greens and blues to golden glows.

Standing proudly in the north-west of the Gascoyne-Murchison region, 390 kilometres from Meekatharra, you'll need to allow at least two days to drive here from Perth.

A closer look will reveal ancient rock art and the mysterious caves of the Wadjari Aboriginal people, who call the ancient landmark 'Burringurrah'. For thousands of years, the rock's natural springs have been a source of water for the Wadjari people, and you can see evidence of their habitation at the Mundee, Ooramboo and Beedoboondu visitor sites.

Surrounded by gum trees, wattle and many native trees and shrubs, the area is also a haven for wildlife, from emus, kangaroos and goannas to kookaburras, honeyeaters and birds of prey.

WELCOME TO JEWEL CAVE AUSTRALIA

In the beautiful karri forest of the Leeuwin Naturaliste Ridge, hidden in the depths of Jewel Cave, the largest calcite straw stalactite of any show cave on Earth stands at a staggering 580 centimetres. Jewel also lays claim to being one of the biggest show caves in Australia, sinking to a reachable depth of 42 metres and stretching for 1.9 kilometres and, remarkably, it's also one of the world's youngest caves.

You'll find this gem just 37 kilometres south of Margaret River or, if you're driving up from Augusta, it's just nine kilometres to the north, along Caves Road.

In the soft golden glow of spotlights, the sheer magnitude and beauty of Jewel Cave's formations leave all visitors awe-struck. The first descent, down a long and narrow tunnel, brings you to the top of the first giant cavern and makes for a breathtaking introduction to the rest of the tour.

During early exploration of the cave, another extraordinary treasure was discovered, in the form of an ancient Tasmanian tiger fossil. One is on display in the spectacular interpretation centre that features iPad technology and a cafe with stunning forest views.

Three Days in New York City

Assalamualaikum , 

Okay it's my turn to update this "interesting nature tourism place around the world". The most important is I'm really SORRY because late to update this but now I want to share "How To Spend Three Days in New York City". I hope with this info you will know where to spend your time and you will enjoy it ! :)


First I will introduce you about NYC or New York City :-


     The "Big Apple," the "City That Never Sleeps"—New York is a city of superlatives: America's biggest; its most exciting; its business and cultural capitals; the nation's trendsetter. The city seems to pull in the best and the brightest from every corner of the country. The city's ethnic flavor has been nuanced by decades of immigrants whose first glimpse of America was the Statue of Liberty guarding New York Harbor and by large expatriate communities such as the United Nations headquartered there. Just minutes from the multimillion-dollar two-bedroom co-op apartments of Park Avenue, though, lies some of the most dire urban poverty in America. But the attendant crime that affects New Yorkers and visitors alike has seen a continued dramatic reduction from 1993 to 2004—NYC has a murder rate half that of cities such as Los Angeles and Chicago, in part as the result of a concerted effort by local agencies. But for all its eight million residents, New York remains a city of neighborhoods, whether it's avant-garde Greenwich Village, bustling Harlem, the ultra-sophisticated TriBeCa, or one of the ethnic enclaves such as Little Italy or Chinatown. And a cleaner, brighter, safer New York is attracting people from around the world who are coming to enjoy the city's renaissance.

Okay , Start our Tour ! ^_^


DAY 1

  • Statue of Liberty/Ellis Island



http://www.inetours.com/New_York/Images/Ellis-Is/SoL_Ellis_0354.jpg

Though the line is really long, if you get here early, you can avoid most of it. (Come late, and you’ll have to wait a few hours.) The Statue of Liberty is interesting to see, but the real highlight is Ellis Island, where you can learn about the immigrant experience coming to the US. If the line’s too long, take the free Staten Island ferry for photos of the statue.

  • BATERRY PARK
 Battery Park is awesome in New York City

Hang out here for music performances, street performers, to people watch, or just to relax. It’s a large and hectic park but a great place to just sit and rest for a bit.

  •  Wall Street
 http://media.salon.com/2013/05/wall-street-bull.jpg

Take a look at the bull, get your photo taken, and then walk to Wall Street and see where bankers destroyed the economy. You often hear people demanding their money back!


  •  CITY HALL
City hall plaza is a must-see on a trip to New York City

New York’s City Hall is a great piece of architecture and has a stunning park, a fountain, and a circular tablet about the site’s history.


  • BROOKLYN BRIDGE 
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ee/Brooklyn_Bridge_as_seen_from_FDR_Drive_in_Manhattan.JPG

Right near City Hall, the Brooklyn Bridge is an easy 25-minute walk if you don’t stop. Stopping to take photos and meander will make the walk about 40 minutes. You get a lot of great views of the city from the bridge.


DAY 2


  •  EMPIRE STATE BUILDIING
Empire State Building lobby is a great place to go on a trip to NYC

This historic building is a landmark in New York City. The 1930s art deco interior is beautiful, and the view from the top is breathtaking. You can get a real feel for how densely populated New York is. Get there early or during lunchtime to avoid the lines.


  •  Grand Central Station
Grand Central Station's main terminal cannot be missed in New York City

Grand Central Station is the city’s historic train station. It was going to be torn down but was saved by Jacqueline Kennedy, who raised money for its preservation. There are free tours on Wednesdays.


  •  Rockefeller Center
Rockefeller Center's statue is an icon of NYC
his area is always filled with hustle and bustle. Wander around Rockefeller Center to eat good food, see where they film The Today Show, and take the elevator to the “top of the rock” for another bird’s-eye view of the city.


  •  Times Square
Times Square is a must-see on a trip to New York City

The lights of Times Square are mesmerizing. No matter when you come here, it will always be packed. During the summer, there are pedestrian areas where you can sit and hang out. If you aren’t shopping or eating, there isn’t much to do, but it’s still a fabulous place to people watch.


  •  Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)
 http://www.e-architect.co.uk/images/jpgs/new_york/moma_building_amcrmar07_27.jpg

 After lunch, head over to the MoMA for lots of beautiful modern art, some weird modern art, and some great impressionist art. Van Gogh’s Starry Night is here. On Fridays after 4pm, the museum is free.


  •  High Line
 The Highline Park in the Meatpacking District is a great way to spend a beautiful day in NYC

 The High Line is a converted train track that is now an urban walking park. It goes from 22nd street down to the Meatpacking District. After a few drinks at The Frying Pan, head down to the Meatpacking District for dinner by walking through the High Line. Or sit down, relax, and watch the traffic go by from the viewing area on 16th Street.


 DAY 3

  •  Central Park
 Central Park is a must-see on a trip to New York City

 A great way to relax in the city and leave the crowds behind is to spend the day in Central Park. It’s free, there are lots of little paths to walk, and since it covers over 40 blocks, it’s easy to spend hours wandering around. During the summer months, there are often free concerts and theater productions in the park too.



  •  The Metropolitan Museum of Art
 The Metropolitan Museum of Art is a must-see on a trip to New York City

 The Met is one of the biggest museums in the world and, if you only see one museum in New York, I would recommend this one. They have a wide array of art, historical artifacts, photography, and other exhibits. There’s even a real Egyptian tomb in here. There’s a lot to see here, so budget a lot of time—a few hours doesn’t do this place justice.


  •  American Museum of Natural History
 American Museum of Natural History is one of the best museums in NYC

 Made even more famous by the Night at the Museum movies, this museum also requires a lot of time. The exhibits are interesting and detailed, so I wouldn’t try to rush it. You’ll learn a lot about nature and human society. I particularly like the exhibit on the origin of humans as well as the section on space.


  •  Broadway show
 The TKTS ticket office in Times Square, NYC

 You can’t go to New York City, the theater capital of the world, without seeing a show. Current highlights include: Wicked, Avenue Q, Memphis, The Lion King, Mamma Mia, and American Idiot.



 Okay that's all from me for this time , THANK YOU for reading ! hehe ^_~)/
