Holiday destination: Virginia, The Natural Wonderland


It is so difficult to say one favorite place because plenty of incredible places are situated around the world but I tell you one place which I really love from bottom of my heart called Virginia. The reason behind is this that I travel several time over there and I really like. It has some of the outstanding places like Luray Antique and Design Center, Shenandoah Caverns, Rancho Viejo and Artisans Grills and most prominent Shenandoah National park.





Shenandoah National Park is located in Luray, VA visitors find plenty to do as hiking, boating in the Shenandoah river, mountain climbing, biking and seeing good looks underground at the world famous Luray Caverns.

Luray Caverns is a natural landmark of Virginia where biggest and prominent stalactite caverns are situated on the East coast. Tourists have the chance to learn more about stalactite formation over there by taking guided tours.







Virginia natural wonder is also the home to a thrilling garden maze which is the largest n the east coast. Luray Caverns maze comprises one acre and was considered for entertainment, recreation and as an object of art.

Furthermore, the place is filled with decent accommodations like hotels, b & b and cabins as well.

And the younger face is made up of boutique hotels, cool bars and a nightlife that caters with abandon to every taste. Situated in central Europe, Budapest is Hungary’s capital city and over the past ten years has experienced a surge of dynamism characterized by up-market establishments, shopping malls and restaurants. Getting around on holiday in Budapest is easy. It is a compact city with the River Danube flowing between the main tourist districts of Buda and Pest. They were only brought together in 1837.

amazon rainforest

The Amazon Rainforest, which is also known as the Amazon Jungle, is located in South America and covers the Amazon River basin. The Amazon River is considered to be the largest river as far as discharge is concerned. Most of the forest is in Brazil (60%), Peru (13%) and some other countries like Venezuela, Colombia, French Guiana, Ecuador, Bolivia, Guyana, and Suriname. Amazon Rainforest is the largest and biggest rainforest in the world and makes about half of the planet’s rainforest space. According to historians, the Amazon Jungle was created millions of years ago when the Amazon River changed its flowing direction from the West to East direction.

Amazon Rainforest or Amazonia is also considered a mysterious and powerful place containing a huge variety of animal species which comprise of mammals, fish, birds, reptiles and amphibians. Many medical and pharmaceutical agencies are running projects in the jungle for gaining plant knowledge and doing drug research.

In today’s world, the environmentalists are deeply concerned due to deforestation, destruction and the loss of bio-diversity in the Amazon Jungles. Due to new and developing human settlements, the issue of deforestation has increased many folds. Before the year 1960, access to Amazon interiors was restricted, but due to farming practices in the later years, there has been a lot of damage to the Forests. Also, due to pollution and carbon emissions, the growth pattern in the trees and plants has drastically changed, which is unacceptable.

Iguazu Falls Review

Iguazu Falls, also known as Iguassu or Iguaçu Falls. These waterfalls are situated on the border of Argentina and Brazil. It touches the Parana region in Brazil and the Misione region from Argentina. It is the fall that separates the river into upper and lower Iguassu. The first person who discovered the place was a Spanish guy called conquistador Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca in the year 1541. The fall was once again rediscovered by Boselie during the end of the 19th century.

The Iguassu Falls have a total of 275 falls and is 2.7 kilometers long where it finally combines with the Iguassu River. Some of the falls have a common height of 269 feet. However, the best of all is the Devil’s Throat, which is a u-shaped, 82 meters high, 150 meters wide and 700 meters long fall. The view of this fall is breathtaking. Out of all, more than two thirds of the falls lie in the Argentine Province.

It is said that almost ten days of vacation time must be allotted to cover all the falls and do justice to the place. Since the falls are not evenly divided between the countries, enough time must be given to both the countries. No words or pictures can describe the real beauty of the falls. It has to be seen in person to fall in love with it. The tourists can reach the falls from either the Brazil Province or the Argentine Province. The national park of Brazil and Argentine are now a part of the UNESCO, world heritage site.

Holiday destination: London Holidays


London is one of the world’s greatest capital cities. You could holiday in London for three months and you still wouldn’t see every attraction the city has to offer. This multi-cultural city can offer value for money as long as you choose your accommodation in London and your entertainment and restaurants wisely. Ethnic restaurants are good value and you’ll find food from every part of the world here. There is also a great selection of free concerts (often in wonderful churches or in theatre foyers) and London’s world-class museums are free. London is less overwhelming once you treat it as a cluster of villages – each with their own style. They include arty Chelsea, buzzy West End, snooty Knightsbridge, leafy Hyde Park, impressive Westminster, intellectual Bloomsbury and happening Soho. History, royalty, theatre, shopping, fashion, classical arts and clubbing: there truly is something in London for every taste and every budget.

Forza Italia -Defending Word Cup Champs Italy Ties Paraguay

Forza Italia -Defending Word Cup Champs Italy Ties Paraguay

Cape Town South Africa hosted 2006 World Cup Champions Italian National Team in its opening game against Paraguay. Despite ESPN commentators and the rest of the world secretly wishing Italy would lose its World Cup 2010 opening match, Italy managed an unimpressive 1-1 tie against an aggressive Paraguay.















Next up in the 2010 World Cup for the Italy's national team is New Zealand, who tied Slovakia earlier today, on June 20 at 10A ET.















Click for video of Italy's goals on the road to 2010 World Cup.

World Cup 2010: italy Defending Champion Takes Field Today

Italy's World Cup team, the World Cup 2010 defending champion and the four-time World Cup Soccer champions of the world come into the 2010 World Cup with a target on their back as defending champions, while simultaneously being viewed as weak by almost the entire world, including Italy. Italy is the second most successful national team in the history of the World Cup having won four titles (1934, 1938, 1982, and 2006) just one fewer than Brazil

Italy's World Cup 2010 team includes many of the same core players on the 2006 Italy World Cup champion team, returning for a second go at winning the ultimate World Cup 2010 trophy.

Italy's blue, azzurro, in Italian due to the "Azzurro Savoia" (Savoy Blue), the color traditionally linked to the royal dynasty which unified Italy in 1861, and maintained in the official standard of the President of the Italian Republic.

In 2006, Italy's Serie A was embroiled in scandal and Italy was expected to be dumped out of the competition quickly. The midfield were derided as having no creativity and the strikers were aging. Italy, of course, went on to top their group, beat a sensational Germany, and put on a defensive clinic against France to win the Cup on penalties.

Italy seems old and weak. They haven't impressed in warm-ups against Mexico or Switzerland, and play maker Andrea Pirlo (calf injury) could miss quite a few games. But, in the end, the Italians are the defending champions, and while they do have a penchant for giving lazy performances when the title isn't on the line, they also make it a habit of proving people wrong.

Italy 's first World Cup 2010 game is today 2:30 ET against Paraguay. For more on travel to Italy visit Italian Tourism and Italy Cruise.
