Hong Kong

  In this posting, I recommend Hong Kong as one of the best tour places. Hong Kong has countless attraction that take a lot of visitors every year. Of course I want to tell you guy all attractive things of Hong Kong, but there are too many things. So, I will introduce the just three attractions of the Hong Kong.

 

  The first attraction that I show you is Hong Kong’s night view. Hong Kong’s night view is a world-famous scene. Especially, the Hong Kong Island’s sky line, symphony of light, skyscrapers become a minister. The main points that can appreciate Hong Kong’s showy scenes like ‘star’s avenue’ and ‘Victoria Peak’ are always crowded with a lot of people. However, skyscraper’s showy landscape is not all. Appreciating fantastic night view that brilliant signs make is sufficiently unique.

 

The second attraction that I show you is gourmandism. Chinese food largely can be divided by Canton food, Sacheon–si food, Beijing food, Shanghai food. Among them, Hong Kong’s food is much influenced Canton food. So, in Hong Kong, there are many foods that are made of fresh vegetables and seafood. From noodles, street foods, to traditional dim sum, there are countless cheap and delicious foods that fascinate tourists in Hong Kong.

 

The third thing is shopping~!:D Hong Kong is really heaven of shopping. Even, there are some people who visit Hong Kong to shop only. In Hong Kong, there are several route of shopping. Department stores, shopping malls, duty-free shops, and bonded goods markets are the typical course. Because Hong Kong doesn’t impose a tariff to imported goods, we can buy goods more cheaply than Korea. Also, it is attractive to buy goods of brand that can see only in Hong Kong.

 

Like this, Hong Kong is certainly very attractive city. Hong Kong will be more and more famous!

New York

 New York is the biggest city in the United States. Although New York lost status of capital in 1790, New York is still a banking and a commercial and an industrial center. And also New York has many popular attraction.

 

 First, Statue of Liberty is very famous attraction. The Statue of Liberty is one of the most famous symbols in New York. Statue of Liberty holds a torch in her right hand and a tablet in her left. The Statue of Liberty is on Liberty Island near New York. in fact, Statue of Liberty wasn’t made by United States. France gave this statue to the United States in order to celebrate the United States centennial. There are observatory and museum and gift shop in the crown of the Statue of Liberty.

 

Second, Empire State Building is also famous attraction. Empire State is nickname for New York. Empire State Building receive New York citizen’s love as New York’s symbol. This building is 442m and has 102 floor. Empire State Building is the highest building in the world until 1970s. There are observatory on the 86^th floor and on the 102th floor. On the 86^th floor, people can go out to outside. And on the 102th floor, people can see outside through window.

 

 Third, Wall Street is center of world trade. And Wall Street is New York’s famous attraction too. There are many banks. These banks are the best banks of all around the world. And Wall Street’s name is derived from a log barrier that is made to defend Native American’s attack.

 

 Like this, in New York, many popular attraction is located. I have never been to United States. So I really want to go New York and other city. If I go there, I will go Time Square, Rockefeller Center, Central Park. I hope my wish is realized.

The south island of New Zealand

 This time, I will post about the south island of New Zealand. New Zealand is composed of two islands. The south island is one of two islands. And the south island of New Zealand is bigger than the north island is New Zealand. Also, The south island of New Zealand is bigger than Korea. I was surprised at this fact. The south island of New Zealand is famous for The Lord of the Rings filming location. Because this island has very beautiful scenery, many film companies visit this island to shoot a movie.

 

 And there are many leisure and recreation things that people make interesting. For example, the world’s first bungee jump is located in the south island of New Zealand. That is ‘Kawarou Bridge’. Because that bungee jump’s scenery is very beautiful, that bungee jump is popular with a foreign tourist. Also the south island of New Zealand is famous for skiing in winter. Because optimal environment for skiing is located in the south island of New Zealand.

 

In the south island of New Zealand, there are some places that are especially popular to the visitors. One of the famous tourist attractions is Milford Sound. In Milford Sound, the highlight course is ‘Milford Sound Mitre Peak’. The tourists can directly see Mitre Peak that rises high over the sea. Its name is derived from its shape that resembles a hat.

 

And other famous place is ‘Mirror Lake’ Mirror Lake got its name because this lake is so clear and can reflect some things like mirror. We are able to feel really clear nature of New Zealand. I am very surprised at the fact that Mirror Lake can reflect some things like mirror. I really want to see it with my own eyes.

 


I think that the south island of New Zealand is very good tourist spot. I want to go the south island of New Zealand with my friends.

          

Venice in Italy

In this posting, I will introduce the Venice in Italy. You may heard and saw Venice. Because Venice’s landscape is wonderful, we can easily see the Venice’s landscape in TV. Many singers shot their music video and many stars go on a trip to Venice to take a rest.

  Venice is composed of about 118 islands and each island is connected by about 400 bridges. Waterways between each island are the major transportation route. In Venice’s down town, we can’t see any cars. The ships are unique vehicle in Venice’s downtown. Of course, immediately outside Venice, people can drive their cars. However, in Venice, motoring is completely rejected.

 

This is Venice’s a narrow alley. The fact that we should get on a ship is unusual. The left side of this bridge is the Doge’s palace. And the right side of this bridge is a jail. Prisoners would sigh when they cross this bridge because they couldn’t see the Venice’s beautiful landscape. So the name of this bridge is “Bridge of Sighs.” In above picture, we can see just the lower part of the bridge.

 

There is St. Mark's square in Venice. The St. Mark’s square is surrounded by St. Mark’s church, The Doge’s palace, a museum, a government office building, a glass workmanship factory, and a clock tower. The St. Mark’s interior is decorated by gold leaf and jewel. And, in the glass workmanship factory, people can see beautiful Venice’s glass products with a trial performance of making glass product. At the time of rising tide, the St. Mark’s square’s bottom is filled with the salt water like above picture.

 

And also, getting around Venice with Gondola can be good memory. A boatman sometimes adds to the amusement by singing songs for tourists.

 

My posting about Venice is end. I hope the viewers enjoy my posting~!

Sydney Opera House in Australia

 Today, the place that I want to show you guys is The Sydney Opera House in Australia. It is one of the places that I really want to visit later. The Sydney opera house is one of the most beautiful buildings all around the world. In 1973, this building is legally opened by Queen Elizabeth Ⅱ.  As much as 14 years are spent to complete the Sydney opera house because the architecture skills are awkward. And its design is derived from cut oranges. The Sydney opera house’s looks like this.

In the interior of the Sydney opera house, there are great and small theaters. And the submerged rooms are also as much as 1000. The biggest concert hall can accommodate more than about 2700 spectators. Another opera theater that can accommodate more than about 1600 spectators is also famous. The opera houses perform concerts (a choral society, an operetta) all the year around.

This is the Sydney Harbour Bridge. This is the second longest bridge among single arch bridges. It is also the symbol of Sydney harbor. From beach and avenue, the length is about 59 meters. This bridge has term of endearment “the old hanger” because its shape looks like a hanger. The whole length of this bridge is 1149 meters, about 0.6 meters shorter than the Brooklyn Bridge in New York. People can climb up a bridge through the interior of pyrone that support the bridge. And also, people can walk to north side because there is a sidewalk.

 

This is the drama theater that is in the opera house. It can accommodate about 544 seats. The performance is mainly dance and drama. In order to keep the temperature of interior, its ceiling is low and made of aluminum plate.

I really hope I got an opportunity to go Sydney opera house. It’s so attractive!

 

Taj Mahal in India

Today, I will introduce the Taj Mahal that is located in Agra, India.

It is one of the most famous buildings in the world. It houses the graves of the emperor and his wife, as well as those of lessor Mogul royalty.

Taj Mahal has some love story in the background of architecture.

Taj Mahal was built by Mogul Emperor Shah Jahan between 1632 and 1654 for his favorite wife, Mutaz Mahal, who died in childbirth.

The Mutaz Mahal asked to make the most beautiful grave for her when she died.

The emperor was so regrettable with his wife's death. So, the Emperor decided to make the Taj Mahal.  Emperor has labored for it as much as he loves her wife. After construction of the Taj Mahal had been completed, the Emperor slashed the craftsmen's wrists because he didn't want to them to copy the Taj Mahal's design anywhere else.

The Taj Mahal is built entirely of white marble, which makes it glow beautifully in the moonlight. And Taj Mahal’s awesome sight makes people visit Taj Mahal. All visitors is surprised at Taj Mahal’s majesty and greatness that Taj Mahal gives. It was designated as National Treasure in UNESCO's Memory of the world in 1983.

However, unfortunately, although it was built by the finest craftsmen, the building is getting very old. This is because of reasons other than pollution. Tremendous exhaust that cars fume out, and carbon dioxide that many plants produce are making a bluff Taj Mahal that gives impression to people around the world. Fortunately, the trees that are planted when Taj Mahal is constructed are keeping this building from the smoke. I hope the Taj Mahal won’t be damaged anymore! And also, I want to see the Taj Mahal as soon as possible.

It will certainly give me a lot of impressions.
 

Santorini in Greece

  This time, my blog posting is about Santorini. You may not hear name “Santorini”. But you certainly saw Santorini at some period or other. I agree with this fact.

 

 Santorini is one of the best tourist attractions. Santorini is familiar to us because we often see Santorini through many movie and TV CF etc. I also saw Santorini in TV many times. On all such occasions, I want to go Santorini. For example, in Movie “Mamma Mia!”, Santorini appear. Santorini is composed of five islands and is located in the most southeast part of the Cyclades.

 

   In order to go santorini, we have to get on a plane or take a ship, After arrive at Santorini, we will admire Santorini's scenery. There are many houses that are so closely spaced and have white of a waterish blue roof. The strong contrast of magnificent nature spaced and white houses is very impressive. And the sunsets in Santorini is also said to be the most beautiful in the world. So Santorini Island is very popular among honeymooners and vacationers.

 

  Shiny residential area at top of island is ‘Fira’ street. In order to climb island, people have to go up the island by cable car. Or people can ride a donkey. Or people can walk up the stairs. But it is very very hard work.

  In Europe, people say the island as “Santorini”, but in Greece, people say this island as “Tira”. In this island, people live on from ancient Rome. So Cyclades civilization remains until now. Cyclades civilization is older than Minoa civilization of Crete Island that is well known to us. It is very amazing civilization. But this civilization disappeared as slick as nothing at all. So people guess this island as Atlantis that fantasy continent.

 Santorini is very interesting island that have legend and beautiful scenery. So I want to go there some time or other.

 

Cebu city

 I am supposed to go Philippine’s Cebu city during summer vacation. I want to more know about Cebu because I live in Cebu during 8 weeks. So I select post topic as Cebu.

 Cebu is famous a sightseeing city. So there are many something interesting to watch and food, drink. Especially, Cebu is famous for marine sports and tropical fruit. I have very high expectations for Cebu. 8 weeks experience in Cebu will be unforgettable for me. The thing that I expect most is cheap price. Therefore I can live in luxury. I will eat food and drink that I want as much as I like.

 

 Snorkeling is one of the popular marine sports in Cebu. We take a boat that is named “Banka” and move among the isalands. We have to wear life vest and swim fins and swimming goggles. With this equipment, we can swim and see many fishes safely. Besides, there are ample provisions for such exciting marine sports as sailing, windsurfing, water skiing, smorkeling, scuba diving parasailing, and deep see diving.

 

 

 Mango is one of the popular tropical fruit. In Korea, we can’t eat mango as we like because mango’ price is some expesive. But mango is very cheap in Cebu, because mango is Philippine’s regional product.

 

 Many languages are used in Cebu. In order to communication is difficult, English is designated as official language. This is reason that I go Cebu to learn English. I am supposed to go U.P. Visayas university.

 

 Cebu discovered to Magellan for the first time. Magellan christened to Cebu’s chief ‘Lasa Hubamon’. To commemorate this, Magellan’s cross is in safe storage. Other cultural assets are Basilica Minore Del Santo Nino and Fort San pedro.

 

 Phillippine’s Cebu city is so wonderful place. So I look forward to going Cebu city in summer. It will be a valuable experience for me.

Disneyland in California

 Today I will post the Disneyland in the California. Disneyland is very famous all over the world. Millions of people visit Disneyland every year. Disneyland was built in California on July 17, 1955 by Walt Disney. Until now, since opening, more than 500 millions of visitors came to the Disneyland. Because its scale is so large, it is hard to look around the whole in a day! Disneyland makes people feel happy with various kinds of parades. And there are many cartoon characters at several places. People enjoy their time by taking pictures with the characters. It serves many something interesting like modern science, the history of Disney’s movies, amazing rides. So, people of all ages and both sexes love Disneyland.

 

 Disneyland consists of various sections. For example, there are explorational country, future country, bear’s country, and exploitational country. There are countless rides in Disneyland. Therefore I can’t all of rides. I will point out a few rides.

 

 

 

 One of the Disneyland’s rides is ‘Big Thunder Mountain Railroad’. That makes several rotations at a rapid pace. All the people who ride this scream and express jubilation. If there is a opportunity that can ride just only ride, I will recommend this without slightest hesitation. I also really want to rides this if I visit Disneyland!

 

 

 Another ride that I want to introduce is “Splash Mountain.” It is a musical journey through the bayou aboard a hollowed-out log that culminates in a daring approximately 5-story plunge. People enjoy exhilarating, tension and coolness of this ride.

 

 Also, there are many festivals in Disneyland.(Halloween festival, Christmas festival, fireworks festival, and so on.) . In festival seasons, more and more people of many countries visit Disneyland. If you visit Disneyland in festival seasons, you will certainly enjoy doubly~!
