A vacation on its virgin beaches, coralline coast, off shore islets, and in the peninsula that is expressing a very distinctive way of life can be an enigmatic experience for a traveler. Not to be missed are the sand dunes of Manalkadu - a miniscule desert whose sheer wildness - that impresses most visitors.

<b><i><b><i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">The Island is probably the driest, most barren area in Sri Lanka. The landscape features many baobab trees, probably introduced from Africa by Arab traders centuries ago. Mannar, the major town on the island, is at the southern end, joined the mainland by a 3 km causeway. It's not interesting apart from its picturesque Portuguese/Dutch fort. Talaimannar, near the western end, is about 3 km from the pier that was the arrival and departure point of the ferry for India that operated until 1984. A little farther west, an abandoned lighthouse at South Point marks the start of Adam's Bridge, the chain of reefs, sandbanks and islets that almost connects Sri Lanka to India. In the Ramayana, this is the series of stepping stones that Hanuman used to follow Rawana, the demon king of Lanka, in his bid to rescue Sita.</span></i></b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></i></b><br />

The wide sandy beaches and its safe sea attract thousands of visitors to Negombo. Set amid lush groves of coconut palms, it breathes the spirit of the sea. Negombo is also a gourmet's paradise with seafood in plenty. The fish market where there are busy trading of a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and seer that take place lively in the mornings, when the fishing crafts return to the shore with their catch, is a worth visiting place. The most popular fishing craft is the outrigger canoe called 'oruwa' dug out from a huge log which is seen in large numbers in the Negombo lagoon.</span></i></b></i></b></i></b></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><b><i><b><i><br />

Considered as the southern capital (116 km from Colombo), Sri Lanka's fourth biggest town, Galle is the most historically interesting living city. Its modern towns were gradually built separately from the ancient one. It was the seaport of Sri Lanka before the Colombo Port was developed in the late 19 century and it still handles shipping and cruising yachts today. Its main attraction is the Fort called 'Santa Cruz' that has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The Fort was built by the Portuguese in 1619 and subsequently expanded and developed by the Dutch and the British the one time colonial masters of the island. What now remains is mostly the work of the Dutch and the British.</span></i></b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></i></b></i></b></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;"><b><i><b><i><b><i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br />

Situated 195 km from Colombo, Tangalla is one of the nicest spots along the cost, particularly if you want somewhere to find a place to laze and soak up the sun. Tangalla's series of bays are the modern attraction, white sandy beach of Medaketiya shimmer away from the northeast to smaller bays on the west. However, some of the beaches in these bays shelve off very steeply and the resulting waves make them dangerous for swimmers. The town pretty much reminds of the Dutch period, for example, the Rest House was once home of the Dutch administrators.</span></i></b><br />

<i><b>1. <a href="http://tourvisit.blogspot.com/">The Sears Tower</a></b></i>. Everyone seems to remember with the intention of from 1973 to 1998 the Sears Tower was the tallest building in the planet. (previously it was the World Trade Center in NYC, currently it is the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia) They think furthermore with the intention of like the Empire State Building it in some way was built pro tourists. Inside detail it was not. It is more of a working personnel building than a tourist attracttion and is single commence pro tour visits all through working hours.

The John Hancock tower is a tall sufficient building to make a skilled check over of the city in all 4 information and they had the significance to get on to a restaurant on the 95th floor called “The Signature Room” in addition to the observatory level on the 94th floor. It is commence until 11 pm and with the intention of is skilled since you aspire to be able to energy in the sundown to think it over the city illumination. I feel like the John Hancock Center was more in tended to be shared with the broadcast and has a better consumer experience.<br />

<i><b>2. <a href="http://tourvisit.blogspot.com/">The knack Institute of Chicago</a></b></i>. It is the biggest and preeminent Fine knack museum in the state and probably the Midwest. The museum is renowned pro its collections of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and American paintings. There are special exhibitions several era a time ranging from Monet (they own ended 30 Monet painings from in adition to Van Gogh and Picasso) to Photography. You be inflicted with the preeminent in planet of art from historical dark ages (swords, knight’s armor, ancient chinese pottery and egyptian jewelry are all here too) until the bestow (mid century present furniture and Georgia O’Keefe paintings) unfilled to check over by by one calculate you visit the museum. The special exhibits are a bonus on top of with the intention of. They even consent to you take pictures (in the regular exhibits), which I was suprised in this area. The knack Institute of Chicago is located on Michigan Ave close to Millennium Park. The personnel is knowledgable and friendly and here is so much here to think it over with the intention of you can waste 2-3 hours walking around.<br />
<br />
What you must think it over as a replacement for: They be inflicted with this lone aptly, here is thumbs down comparsion. Go think it over the knack Institute of Chicago. If you like more present avant garde facility, the Museum of Contemporary knack (MCA) is furthermore skilled, but nothing compares to the knack Institute of Chicago.<br />

Everyone thinks with the intention of this area of Michigan Avenue has something unique and you should supermarket here as you visit Chicago. Inside the old days previous to cars, airplanes and the internet it really did. You would energy to the Mag Mile to think it over the preeminent with the intention of supplies and retailers had to offer. All the preeminent specialty supplies and ritzy like brand first name supplies were here (Chanel, Prada, Coach, the Apple Store) Now I wonder if here is whatever thing here with the intention of you couldn’t discover by a habitual community lofty shopping precinct like Woodfield or Oak Brook? The crowds with the intention of supermarket here currently are ordinarily public who bring about or live downtown and they sort out more made known of convienience since it’s planet rank shopping surrounded by walking distance. (there is an american girl pile though with the intention of draws public from several neighboring states) So it’s appealing to think it over, but a ration of could you repeat that? Made the Magnificent Mile a magnet has been made moot by the internet and the growth of distinguished aim shopping all ended the people. We are thumbs down longer the shining OZ hub in the generous and flat tire prarie with the intention of public ride trains to energy sort out their twice yearly shopping like in the in the dead of night 1800s and ahead of schedule 1900s.<br />
<br />
What you must think it over as a replacement for: There is permanently something vacant by Navy Pier. If nothing moreover, ride the ferris veer and check over the city from the single cut of ground in the lake. Or if you rather a more distinguished tech way to check over the city, the newest enthusiasm is the guided Segway Tours. I think public energy on them solely to ride a segway really. (I would) They are expensive and long though. Expect to shell out from $70-$100 and waste from 2-3 hours on a segway listening to a tour handbook. It is all the novelty aptly currently to tell public with the intention of you rode around Chicago on a segway. (our control force furthermore uses them a ration, as an alternative to horses, although you sort out still think it over approximately horse cops around occasionally)<br />
<br />
<i><b>4. <a href="http://tourvisit.blogspot.com/">Honorable Mention</a></b></i> – People used to ask to energy think it over the Marshall Fields on State Street, but currently with the intention of it is a Macy’s I am not guaranteed public feel the same way in this area it. They be inflicted with preserved a ration of the traditions and activities with the intention of Marshall Fields had, but it’s still much a reduced amount of in this area Chicago currently.<br />

Documented for the first time in 1250, it started off like many other castles along the Rhine as a Trier toll castle. Also sharing the fate of many of its neighbouring buildings, it was destroyed by the French in the 17th century.

He kept the first and second promises. Construction began in 1631 and was completed in 22 years. Twenty thousand people were deployed to work on it. The material was brought in from all over India and central Asia and it took a fleet of 1000 elephants to transport it to the site.

The magnificent temple of Lord Pashupatinath about 5 Kms north-east of Kathmandu, is situated amidst many other temples on the right bank of the river Bagmati. Pashupatinath is the guardian spirit and the holiest of all Shiva shrines in Nepal.<br /><br />Lord Shiva is known by many different names; and Pashupati is one. Pashu means living beings, and Pati means master. In other words Pashupati is the master of all living beings of the universe. This is how lord Pashupati is eulogized in the Vedas, Upanishad and other religious books.<br /><br />Legends are numerous as to how the temple of Lord Pashupatinath came to existence here. As stated in chronicles, the image of Lord Shiva in the form of Jyotirlinga was covered with earth over the years, and soft green grass sprouted over it. Further, as the legend goes, a cow used to come here mysteriously every day and offer her milk to this holy but hidden Linga of Lord Shiva. When the Gwalas (owner) saw that the cow had stopped giving milk since the last few days he started keeping eye on her; and finally came across the place where the cow used to offer her milk. With a natural curiosity to know the importance of the place, where his cow used to make offering of her milk, the gwalas dug the place and found the Jyotirlinga of Lord Shiva. After this number of gwalas gathered to worship this Linga according to religious conformity, starting the tradition of worshipping this Linga. As the time passed Lord Pashupatinath started gaining more and more popularity and reverence of the devotees as a guardian spirit and gradually the temple of Lord Pashupatinath became a great place of pilgrimage.<br /><br />The rulers of Nepal, over centuries made contributions in enriching and beautifying this holy temple. According to Gopalraj Vamsavali, the oldest ever chronicle in Nepal, this temple was built by Supus Padeva, a Linchchhavi King who according to the stone inscription erected by Jayadeva 11 in the courtyard of Pashupatinath in 753 AD happened to be the ruler 39 generation before Manadeva (464-505 AD). Yet, there is another chronicle which states that this temple was in the form of Linga shaped Devalaya before Supus Padeva constructed a five storey temple of Pashupatinath in this place. As the time passed, the need for repairing and renovating this temple arose. It is learnt that this temple was reconstructed by a mediaeval King named Shivadeva (1099-1126 AD). It was renovated by Ananta Malla adding a roof to it.<br /><br />As described in the history, this temple was attacked and badly destroyed by Sultan Samsuddin of Bengal in the mid 14th Century. This plunder caused so much damage to the temple that it needed reconstruction. It was only after ten years, in 1360 AD, that it could be reconstructed and renovated by Javasimha Ramvardhana. Another renovation work here after was taken up by Jyoti Malla in 1416 AD.<br /><br />The present architectural nature of Pashupatinath temple came into existence as a result of renovation by queen Gangadevi during the reign of Shivasimha Malla (1578-1620 AD).<br /><br />The temple of Lord Pashupatinath stands in the middle of an open courtyard. It is a square shaped pagoda temple built on single platform measuring 23.6 meters from the ground. There are gold gilt doors on all the four sides of the temple. Inside the temple there is a narrow walk engulfing the sanctum from where one can have closer view of Shivalinga.<br /><br />On the both sides of each door of the temple there are artistic niche of different sizes containing attractive images of Apsara, Ashtha Bhairava and other gods and goddesses. These images and niches, painted with gold enhance the grandeur of the temple. The latticed windows below the roof are another elements of attraction. The struts supporting the roofs and depicting the image of different postures are equally alluring. The gold gilt images of birds in flying posture in all the four corners of the roof and the winged images of lion, griffin, Ajarapurusa and Mahanaga on the struts in all the corners of the temple gies soaring beauty to the temple. On the upper part of the struts supporting the lower roof, the images of moon, sun and a Purna-Kalasha are carved out. This Purna-Kalasha is worshiped as a symbol of Guheshwori.<br /><br />In the sanctum of the temple, there is a very attractive, about three feet high Shivalinga with four faces. All these faces have different names and significance. The face facing east is known as Tatpurusha and the one facing south as Aghora. Similarly, the faces looking west and north are known by the name Sadhyojata and Vamadeva respectively. The upper portion of this linga is known as Ishan. These faces are also defined as the symbol of four dharma (the most famous places of pilgrimage for Hindus) and four Vedas (sacred books of Hindus). The images of Vishnu, Surya, Devi and Ganesh are also placed in the sanctum of the temple.<br /><br />Pashupati area is regarded as one of the most important places of pilgrimages for the followers of Hinduism. Thousands of devotees from within and outside the country come to pay homage to Pashupatinath every day. And on special occasions like Ekadasi, Sankranti, Mahashivratri, Teej Akshaya, Rakshabandhan, Grahana (eclipse), Poornima (Full moon day) people congregate here in far greater number.

Lesvos. Truly a magical place to visit. The birdlife is incredible where east meets west bringing with it a few birds you would struggle to see in the usual European locations.<br />
<br />
2. Coto Donana Parque national. A totally unspoilt area of a multitude of habitats that is located not too far from the Portugese Border and is situated more or less between Huelva and Seville. It is stuffed with birds. Star bird here is the Spanish Imperial Eagle.<br />
<br />
3. The mountainous are around Ronda on the Costa del Sol. Stronghold of many birds of prey including Griffon Vulture, Short toed Eagle plus the odd Egyptian and Black Vulture, Booted and Bonellie's Eagle for good measure.<br />
<br />
4. Portugal, the Algarve. Some excellent reserves along this long strip of land running along the southern area of Portugal from Spain to Cabo de sao Vicente. Also just over the Northern Algarve boundary you have the Castro Verde where Great and Little Bustards roam together with large numbers of Montague Harriers, the odd Roller plus many more birds.<br />
<br />
5. The NW corner of the Greek Mainland, bordering Albania. You fly into Parga to get there. A hugely underwatched area of Greece with some amazing wetlands with anything from Flamingoes, White and Dalmation Pelicans, Slender billed Gulls and much much more.<br />
<br />
6. Mallorca. A smashing birdwatching island with plenty of places to visit. Well worth going to the Albufeira Marshes & waterworks (Depudora), Boquer Valley, Cuber Reservoir, Selina de Levanti and many more.<br />
<br />
7. Kefalonia. Not as good as Lesvos as it only has one wetland area but it is a stunning island with many mountains, valleys and plains. Some excellent birds here that can be quite easily found if you look hard enough.<br />
<br />
8. Scilly Isles in Autumn. Awesome place to visit if it's rare birds you are after.<br />
<br />
9. Norfolk / Suffolk. An anytime of the year area to visit with enough reserves and bird rich habitats to last you a lifetime.<br />
<br />
10. Scotland. Based anywhere near Loch Garten (near Aviemore).

Like Mount Kailash, Lake Mansarovar is a place of pilgrimage, attracting religious people from India, Tibet and the neighboring countries. Bathing in the Manasa Sarovar and drinking its water is believed to cleanse all sins. Pilgrimage tours are organized regularly, especially from India, the most famous of which is the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra which takes place every year. Pilgrims come to take ceremonial bathes in the cleansing waters of the lake.<br />

The lake, in Hindu mythology, is also supposed to be the summer abode of swans, who are considered as very wise and sacred birds. It is also believed the Devas descend to bathe in the lake between 3 and 5 am the time of the day known as Brahma Muhurta. Buddhists also associate the lake to the legendary lake known as Anavatapta in Sanskrit and Anotatta in Pali, where Queen Maya is believed to have conceived Buddha. The lake has a few monasteries on its shores. The most notable of which is the ancient Chiu Gompa Monastery, which has been built right onto a steep hill. It looks as if it has been carved right out of the rock.<br />

Feeling the onset of labor pains, she grabbed hold of the branches of a shade tree and gave birth to Siddharta Gautama, the future Buddha. The Buddha is said to have announced, "This is my final rebirth" as he entered the world. Buddhist tradition also has it that he walked immediately after his birth and took seven steps, under each of which a lotus flower bloomed.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZBXoa6ULmZ_AWI5n1SQeboC9FOpk8VdMve6bhthfQhID9i5FcEFVEQE2_mF2ul8mrrS04ArkJvtUsQ-C1JtvQd-QLe1webWjnWVx-SoxM0K5pxEkAWUOmaOtUfu11mJlCTY2EAVDdVUo/s1600/lumbini+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="154" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZBXoa6ULmZ_AWI5n1SQeboC9FOpk8VdMve6bhthfQhID9i5FcEFVEQE2_mF2ul8mrrS04ArkJvtUsQ-C1JtvQd-QLe1webWjnWVx-SoxM0K5pxEkAWUOmaOtUfu11mJlCTY2EAVDdVUo/s200/lumbini+1.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div style="line-height: 16px; text-align: justify;">In 249 BC, the Buddhist convert <strong>Emperor Ashoka</strong> visited Lumbini and constructed four stupas and a stone pillar. Ashoka's Pillar bears an inscription that translates as: "King Piyadasi (Ashoka), beloved of devas, in the 20 year of the coronation, himself made a royal visit, Buddha Sakyamuni having been born here, a stone railing was built and a stone pillar erected to the Bhagavan ["blessed one"] having been born here. Lumbini village was taxed reduced and entitled to the eight part (only)".</div><div style="line-height: 16px; text-align: justify;">Monasteries and temples were built at Lumbini until the 9th century, but Buddhism declined in the area after the arrival of Islam and later Hinduism. All that remained was a sculpture, revered by local women as a fertility symbol. The garden of the Buddha's birth was lost for a thousand years.</div><div style="line-height: 16px; text-align: justify;">The site was rediscovered in <strong>1895</strong>, when a German archaeologist came upon Ashoka's Pillar, identified by its inscription. Records made by the Chinese pilgrim Fa Xian were also used in the process of identifying this religiously acclaimed site. Lumbini was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997.</div><div style="line-height: 16px; text-align: justify;"><br />

The site is a large garden with a grove of pipal trees. The area around Lumbini is entirely Hindu, but many Buddhist temples and shrines from various nations are scattered around the holy site itself.</span></div><div style="line-height: 16px; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">The most important temple at Lumbini is the <strong>Maya Devi Temple</strong>, which enshrines the traditional site of the Buddha's birth.

It is protected by a small fence, which is decorated with prayer flags and banners from the faithful. Around the courtyard containing the pillar are bowls for incense sticks, and there is room to sit in front of the pillar for contemplation</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"></span><br />
<div style="line-height: 16px; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Lumbini is in west-central Nepal near the Indian border. It is not terribly easy to get to, and the site does not receive a large amount of visitors. Most pilgrims to Lumbini come from Southeast Asia, Japan and Tibet, but westerners come regularly as well.</span></div><div style="line-height: 16px; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Lumbini has a small airport, which receives flights from airlines like the aptly-named Buddha Air.

Here, on the summit, you can expect temperatures of minus 100 degrees Fahrenheit, but if you give rise to fortune the fever can make moreover minus 15 degrees Fahrenheit. But the real problematic pro the climbers is not the low fever, but the abridged level of oxygen of the air, since of the climax altitude. The climbers need to turn through a process called acclimatization. They give rise to a camp on the stand of the mount. They climb pro about hundred feet and followed by they turn down again, to have a rest. The concept is to become used better and safer with the low level of oxygen and followed by become fresh oxygen.

Mount Everest is one of the tallest mountains in the world. It is part of the Himalayan Mountains. They were formed in the last few million years. After the supercontinent of Laurasia broke up millions of years ago, India moved slowly north towards Asia and then crashed into it. The seabed between the two plates (the earth's crust is divided into large areas of land called plates) was crumbled and pushed up on the northern rim of India to form mountains. These two plates of the earth's crust are still moving, so the Himalayas are being pushed up higher.<br />
The highest mountain on the planet, Mount Everest is growing two inches taller each year. Satellite technology says the mountain is currently 29,107 feet tall. First recognized as the highest peek in 1852, it got its western name ten years later in 1862. Mount Everest was named for Sir George Everest (1790-1866), a British surveyor. Surveyors don't agree on the height of Mount Everest. The British government in the 1800's thought the height was 29,002 feet. In 1954 the Indian government said it's 29,028 feet, but a widely used unofficial figure says it is 29,141 feet!<br />

Mount Everest sits on the border between Nepal and Tibet. <br />
People from the western hemisphere weren't allowed to climb Mount Everest until the early 1920's. The first known climb that made it to the top was made by a New Zealander named Edmund Hillary and a Napalese named Tenzing Norgay. They climbed the mountain in 1953. Since then Everest has been climbed by 400 people. Access is restricted by the Nepalese to prevent too much damage to the environment.<br />

Traveling in Tibet is really a good experience for life. The capital of Tibet Lhasa is about 1000km from Kathmandu. It takes about one our flight and 2 hours drive to get in Lhasa. Lhasa is the biggest city in Tibet and Sigatche is the second biggest city.
