Exhibition "The Line" by Tran Van Thao "The Line" is the first solo exhibition in four years of Vietnam's foremost abstract painter Tran Van Thao. Reflecting on wider themes of mindfulness and subjectivity, Tran's new paintings are sombre ponderings on life's passages and trajectories. Straight lines are the key element of the series, forming linear shapes of markers or arrows - perhaps needle of compasses. In a similar manner, the canvas surfaces, textured with a plethora of material physicality and recurring motifs seem to represent the vast expanse that is a lifetime overwhelming, serendipitous, changing from one moment to the next, unforeseable.

With a three hour long performance, the audience will be fully immersed in the mood and situations of each character, ranging from anger to jealousy to pain and tearful sadness. The play features a special stage setting, meaningful dialogues, authentic characters, moving lyrics from the song "Ru doi da mat" by songwriter Trinh Cong Son, and a beautiful sound of the harmonica, which will likely resonate with the audience, and make tears fall down their cheeks.

Some investors have not been cautious in the planning and positioning of the projects, therefore only focus on the development of high rise buildings to increase the number of rooms without considering the need to increase the projects' value. For long-term development and sustainable growth, tourism properties in Vietnam should be planned in a whole and coordinated manner. In addition to the significant increase of visitors, the revenue generated from hotels and resorts around the country has also improved, but not commensurate with the growing demand of these properties.

HEAd of RESEARCH, SAVILLS HCMC Vietnam is a booming market in tourism thanks to the birth of budget airlines, travel technological improvements, visa exemption policies, and reduced language barriers as well as an increasing demand for new travel experiences at new destinations. The number of international visitors to Vietnam increased to 28% in 2017 as the highest rate in Asia. This growth rate is even higher than the recorded rate of 26% in 2016. All major tourism markets such as China, Korea, and Russia are growing fast and stable. The launch of new nonstop international flights allows international tourists to travel to Vietnam more easily, helping Vietnam maintain its position in a competitive market with other countries in Southeast Asia. Many experts agree that 2017 was a favorable year for hotel properties in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. An increasing demand from tourists and business travelers has enabled hotel properties in the two major cities to operate in full capacity and generate more revenue than predicted at the beginning of the year. Properties introduced in the coming years in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City are limited, so investors can consider which project they want to focus on in terms of their potential profitability, and of course, diversify the categories.

It can be said that 2018 is a hopeful period for resort properties, especially with the concept of "Special Economic Zone" gradually formed in areas with great tourism potentials.
SecoNd hoMe The Second Home is becoming a trend in Vietnam. As of August, 2017, 42 Second Home projects were developed providing over 9,700 apartments at mid to high-end range, located mainly at six coastal locations (Khanh Hoa, Da Nang, Phu Quoc, Ho Tram, Ha Long, and Quang Nam) which include more than 19,200 units to enter the market within the next 3 years. Condotels are currently the most popular type of Second Home. Specifically, by 2019, condotels will account for 80% of the Second Home projects in major coastal destinations. One of the main reasons leading to the popularity of condotels in Vietnam in recent years is the steady growth of resort properties, and the investors' desire to shorten the payback period. However, in Vietnam, condotels and Second Home projects are seen more as an investment rather than a "lifestyle product" that caters to resort properties. The fierce competition in sales has affected the way these
projects are being promoted by investors. In order to promote sales, some projects have adopted a profit-making scheme that puts pressure on other investors with smaller scale projects by providing similar benefits to catch up with their competitors. More projects are being launched with larger scales and increased benefis in order to surpass previous projects, which make them risky for buyers when less experienced investors develope largescale projects that do not have sufficient funds or are not supported by the banks. Condotels and Second Home projects are often unlikely to generate attractive profits since they are required to have similar facilities and management to those of hotels and resorts in order to win the competition. The rate of return depends on the market conditions, the home owner's use, and the capability of the management company to achieve the expected return. TRAVELLIVE

In 2017 saw the country welcome over 12 million international travellers according to the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT), increasing 29,1% over the same period last year. By 2020, Vietnam is looking to host 20 million international visitors. The tourism industry is envisaged to create 3.5 million jobs in the tourism sector, generating a total revenue of USD 35 billion which will account for approximately 10% of Vietnam's GDP. By 2030, total tourism revenue is expected to double that of 2020. Seven tourism areas have been earmarked for further development due to their unique destination offerings. The seven key tourism areas will seek to provide a host of attractions that will cater to a wider range of tourists. Vietnam recently announced it would renew its 15-day visa exemption policy for citizens of Germany, France, Britain, Italy and Spain until the end of June 2018, whilst the majority of Asian nations are already visa exempt and some other European countries are also exempt. International visitor arrivals have consistently been on an upward trend in Ho Chi Minh City and 2017 was a record breaking year reaching 6.3 million arrivals, an uplift of almost 22,88%

year on year. Ho Chi Minh City is also a leisure destination with its many museums, shopping and developing food and beverage scene A wide range of international upscale and luxury hotel brands are already well represented in Ho Chi Minh City. These include IHG, Accor, Marriott and Hyatt. Domestic hotel brands in the upscale and luxury segment are more prevalent compared to Hanoi, providing some competition to these international operators. These include the Reverie Hotel, Caravelle Hotel, Hotel Majestic and the Rex Hotel. Besides, golf is another area where Vietnam has sought growth - demand for the four Championship courses in Danang and Hoi An has driven a minisurge in Korean arrivals keen to test themselves against the courses. This is on the back of the inaugural Ho Tram Open, won by current Masters Champion Sergio Garcia, which was Vietnam's richest ever sporting event with a total purse of US$1,500,000. Given the recent rapid growth in international visitor arrivals, continued marketing efforts, improvements to infrastructure and further development of human resources and services in Vietnam, the outlook for tourism and the accommodation sector is bright.
Mr. Adam Bury said that the important point in Vietnam's tourism industry is whether tourists want to return to Vietnam. Thailand is an example where travelers often return to Bangkok. Many Singaporeans like to travel Thailand whenever they have a holiday. The number of visitors returning to Vietnam had been uncommon, but it is changing. Vietnam obviously has excellent potential in tourism, and is the most impressive tourist market in Southeast Asia. Here are some other insights of JLL's senior vice president in Asia. - Among potential cities for investment in tourism properties, Ho Chi Minh City is a major market, especially Hanoi, followed by Da Nang and Nha Trang which also have great potential for tourism properties. A number of hotels and resorts can be
operated effectively if local developers can come up with clear business plans that are proved feasible. Cities like Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Nha Trang, and Hoi An are great markets for investment. Singaporean investors have expressed their interest in Vietnam, but their obstacle is not being able to find many suitable locations. - Vietnam is obviously a country that attracts not only international but also domestic visitors. Vietnam's population has reached almost 100 million people, and the number of the rich has seen a significant increase as well as the demand for domestic travel. Thus, the demand for hotels and resorts is also on increase. - Vietnam is currently attracting not only foreign tourists but also domestic tourists. The population of Vietnam is nearly 100 million people and the proportion of the rich in Vietnam is also increasing significantly, resulting in the increasing demand for tourism
of the people. Therefore, the demand for hotels to serve tourists is increasing. - If individual investors want to invest in condotels, the most important thing is the reputation and capacity of the investor. Buyers often consider the reputation of the developer and the feasiblity and reliablity of the project. Buyers also take in consideration the success of previous projects from their developer. - Foreign investors have different views and perspectives when choosing to invest in Vietnam. Singaporean and Hong Kong investors in Vietnam are interested in shortterm investments. They usually operate the condotels for 3-5 years before handing them over. Investors from South Korea, Japan and Thailand often take a more careful and cautious approach when it comes to investments. They tend to keep the assets for a longer period from 15 - 20 years.

coMMITMeNT PoLIcIeS: ARe TheY SUSTAINABLe? With the current competitive market, developers often offer attractive sales policies for buyers. For example, if a buyer joins the Rental Pool Program (which may be mandatory), after the handover, the condotel/villa will be deposited back to the developers for management, and the owner will receive 50 - 85% of profit. Buyers often have 15-20 days/year to use the condotel/villa, and for the first 5-10 years may receive a guaranteed yield (minimum 5-12% of the condotel/villa's value per year). Some developers even have agreement to buy back with 108% of the original value at the end of the guaranteed yield period. It will be difficult for developers to ensure their subsequent operating profit is sufficient to meet the commitments from these profit sharing/guaranteed yield (especially at high yield of above 11%) to buyback schemes. As a result, developers often have to take into account those in the selling prices, which are higher than selling prices with no commitment. It is one of the key points buyers often have to consider, but having a 5-10 year long commitment at a high rate from reputable investors make them feel more secure on a psychological level. On the other hand, since vacation properties reflect the lifestyle of buyers, people are willing to "put down the cash" for reputable projects in beautiful locations.
Oceanami
Since these promising policies have only emerged during the last 3 years, it is still not possible to verify the developers' compliance. In 2017, a project in Nha Trang, whose guaranteed yield was promised at 15% per year, could not afford to pay the buyers after it went into operation. The developer then asked to reduce the commitment rate to 8% per year, and the case is in an on-going dispute. This reminds the buyer to consider the project's operational capability after the sale - often if the project is under the same reputable management as the hotel in the same project, buyers can be more reassured.
VIeTNAM ToURISM IS hoPefUL IN 2018 In recent years, Vietnam's visa application procedures have improved considerably. At the end of 2015,
Vietnam granted visa waivers for citizens of five European countries. 2017 marks the first year Vietmam is granting electronic visas for citizens from 40 countries (6 more have just been added under a Resolution issued December, 2017). In terms of infrastructure, more international flights come directly to major tourist destinations (such as Bangkok Airways with the Bangkok - Phu Quoc route or Thomson Airways with the London - Phu Quoc route). Van Don International Airport is expected to be put into operation in Quarter 1, 2018, which will increase the number of tourists to Quang Ninh. These will lay a firm foundation for Vietnam's tourism industry in 2018. Cam Ranh and the coastal area extending from South Da Nang to Hoi An are expected to be bright spots in terms of new supply, thanks to
the availability of development sites. In addition, if the Special Economic Administrative Law is passed (expected to pass mid-2018), Van Don, northern Van Phong, and Phu Quoc are expected to attract many investors and developers.
LeGAL ISSUeS foR foreign inVestors Foreign investors rarely buy vacation properties because of a number of legal issues. As condotels are both residential and commercial land, a clear legal framework is not around for this type of project. According to the law, pink books are not to be provided for foreigners in areas of national security and defense, while local authorities in those areas are not given clear and proper guidance. Many developers are not interested in marketing this type of property to foreign buyers. TRAVELLIVE

Phu Quoc market is busier compared in 2016 with new projects managed by international brands such as InterContinental, Best Western Premier, Novotel, Movenpick and Wyndham. Developers have expanded their interest into new markets such as Ha Long, Quy Nhon, and Ho Tram.

A boom in the vacation property market took place during 2015-2016 together with a steady growth of the general real estate market. For developers, properties-for-sale such as condotels and villas often allow them to recover their capital flows faster than rental properties such as hotels and serviced apartments. As Vietnam's economy and tourism are booming in recent years, and people's incomes are improving, more investors are becoming interested in vacation properties, which increases the demand for this market, and allows developers to make more bold choices. Most existing projects are located in beautiful coastal locations, and in the high-end range which targets high-end buyers. Projects from major developers such as Vingroup, Sun Group, Empire Group, CEO Group have a great absorption rate thanks to the reputation and strong sales of the developers.
PoLIcIeS ANd SoLUTIoNS To PRoMoTe The ToURISM PRoPeRTY MARKeT fRoM 2018-2020 First of all, it is necessary to set up a legal framework for vacation properties, in which it is indicated clearly when the buyer is granted a certificate of land use right, ownership of houses and other assets attached to the land, which will increase the market's transparency. To ensure the bindingness of commitment policies, developers should be required to obtain bank guarantees for their projects. In case when the developers can not fulfill the obligations, the bank will compensate and reduce the risks for investors. With this requirement, developers are likely to be more cautious with their commitments and ensuring more realistic commitment rates. And only financially capable developers can offer attractive rates. Another important thing in tourism development is that developers must abide to environmental and landscape protection, preserve the "soul" of the land, and improve the quality of services. Those are the key elements that will attract visitors and ensure their return.

he hype created by the world's leading manufacturer of high-quality chocolate and cocoa products from Switzerland is huge among millennials, who have now gone on a "hunt" for this exciting and unique chocolate especially as Valentine's is approaching.
After about a decade of development, Barry Callebaur has unveiled a breakthrough for the struggling global chocolate industry. The launch was held in September 2017 in Shanghai to introduce Ruby chocolate to major markets such as the United Kingdom, the United States, China and Japan after receiving positive feedback from consumers as well as chocolate experts. Ruby chocolate offers a totally new taste experience, which is not bitter, milky or sweet, but a tension between berry-fruitiness and luscious smoothness. Unlike other artificial reddish chocolate which had been introduced previously by a number of chocolate manufacturers, Barry Callebaut, the father of luxury chocolate bars, assures that Ruby Chocolate is made of entirely natural cocoa beans of a pink variety with a slightly sour but still sweet taste. This new chocolate is extracted from ruby beans that come from the Ivory Coast, Ecuador and Brazil. The product is the result of tremendous efforts from Barry Callebaut's hardworking teams at global research and development centers based around France and Belgium. By introducing Ruby chocolate, the Swiss confectioner is bringing a sensational product to the global chocolate table, and satisfying the most romantic hearts with such a pretty-looking and flavorful chocolate. Lovers around the world now has a good reason to look forward to for the upcoming Valentine's season. No information has been said on when Ruby Chocolate will be available in the Vietnam market. So, you lovers, just have to wait it out!

Red Velvet is different from other kinds of cake because it is the cake that makes every heart feel young and excited even after many years.
RED VELVET has become an exquisite cake that is a favorite dish of sweettoothed diners all over the world. This cake is also known as "Red Waldorf cake," "Waldorf Red cake," "Waldorf Astoria Red cake," "Red Carpet cake," "Red Mystery cake," "Flame cake," and "$300 cake". As suggested by its name, Red Velvet is the mixture of red, magenta and russet to make it red velvet that is very distinctive. A traditional Red Velvet cake is often composed of cake and cream cheese. Red Velvet is different from other kinds of cake because it is the cake that makes every heart feel young and excited even after many years. Red Velvet can conquer even the toughest guest when it is served because it boasts a resplendent red coat and layers of cake mixed with white whipped cream. In addition, with its main ingredients of butter, sugar, vinegar, egg, cacao powder, flour and red food coloring (from red beet or radish), Red Velvet is a perfect harmony
to fascinate every diner. Particularly, the strong contrast of the soft white cream, brown cacao layer and red sauce makes Red Velvet more alluring and irresistible with its balance and rich flavors. Mississippi native and Saveur magazine food editor Ben Mims explains the red velvet's attraction: "It's my mother's ceramic-white skin contrasted by her lips, always burnished with brick-red lipstick." It is not easy to make a mouthwatering Red Velvet cake because it requires many strict elements. The cake flour must be very smooth, soft and fat with enough butter. In terms of color, it should be red enough to make the cake look sweet and tempting. The whipped cream must taste sweet of sugar, fat of milk and the deliciousness of cream cheese. Especially, it should melt on one's tongue when tasted. You can have Red Velvet with red wine, orange juice, coffee or jelly. Each pairing will bring you new and tantalizing flavors. TRAVELLIVE

Celebrate Valentine Day As Japanese Style Valentine's Day is a day for couples spending their time romantically together at a nice restaurant. And when it comes to gifts and the man sends flowers or chocolates or a card to the woman. But in Japan, things are rather different. Valentine's Day is of course an imported holiday with no established traditions in the country, so when it was introduced by confectionery makers to the general public in the late 1950s, it was marketed as a day when chocolate giving was a must - and on that day, women will present chocolates to men. This Valentine season is a great opportunity for all ladies who want to express your love to the man. And to bring a romantic day for you, Executive Chef of Yoshino restaurant - Mr. Kenji Maeda honor to present Love Kaiseki for all dinners who want to show their love to partners from 1 to 14 February 2018. Love Kaiseki including 8 courses priced at 1.600.000++VND. Especially, we prepare special gifts for all couples use Love Kaiseki on this Valentine season.

DALAT IS AN IDEAL PLACE FOR STAR-STRUCK LOVERS. THE HANDS I HELD MAY BE DIFFRENT, THE PLACES I WENT MAY BE DIFFERENT, BUT DALAT STILL RETAINS ITS UNIQUE CHARM
Da Lat
A HAVEN FOR LOVERS If there is one place I would like to visit time and time again, it would be the beautiful town of Dalat. Nestled among endless pine trees and rolling hills, Dalat's unique charm has never failed to surprise me everytime, from its comfort food, to tucked away cafäs, to hidden nature spots.
There is something always so charming about Da Lat that keeps attracting lovers to this sweet haven. The bus from Saigon to Dalat departs late at night, and arrives in Da Lat early in the morning when the streets have yet to wake up from its beauty sleep. I often take a walk around town while waiting for the banh can shop on 14 Tang Bat Ho or banh mi xiu mai shop on 47 Hoang Dieu to open. A nice hot breakfast will keep you warm before heading out to the outskirts of Dalat looking for some new experience.

I can not remember the number of times I have been to Dalat. The first time I went there was 2008 when I was in love for the first time. Nine years have passed, and every year, I always go back no less than three times. Every trip is a different experience. I may have held different hands, and gone to different places, but Dalat still retains its unique charm. Dalat is an ideal place for star-struck lovers who want to spend their days gazing away in each other's eyes under the breezy air, or for more adventurous lovers, there
is a myriad of lakes and waterfalls around town to visit. Either way, this is a haven for couples wishing to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city life. Try to go out of town when you are in Dalat. Hire a bike, and go up to the plateau where you can enjoy the cool wind, fresh air, and find incredible beauty. A nice stroll around Xuan Huong Lake or a visit to the Dalat Market are worth taking. But of course, I do not want to do the same thing again and again. I often head to
new places everytime I visit. It is how I manage to always stay in love with Dalat.
Ta Nung Commune Located about 15km west of Dalat, Ta Nung is a small commune that brought me the most wonderful memories. The sight was unforgettable as we drove across fields of tithonia in its blooming season, along with vast fields of buckwheat, Michaelmas daisy, and coffee.

Hydrangea is a popular flower in Dalat, which can be found all year round on every street of Dalat. But the largest hydrangea flower farm is located in Xuan Tho Commune with an area covering over 20 hectares. Many couples come to this beautiful hydrangea farm to have their wedding photos taken. It's truly amazing to be surrounded by these huge bunches of flower which remind me of Alice in Wonderland. Since the farm is privately owned and visitors pay a small fee to enter the farm, I have to admit it is well preserved and free of litter. From Dalat, head towards the National Highway No.20 for 11 km to get to Trai Mat Station. From there, continue another 500m, and look to the left to see a sign that will direct you to the hydrangea flower farm.
"Snow" field in Dalat What I call "snow" is in fact, the early morning dew that covers a field in Dalat, which could easily be mistaken for snow under the white glare of the sun. When we went there, we were lucky to have beautiful weather with the sun shining bright at 7 am, turning the whole area into a "snow" field. Even our local guide was surprised to see such an amazing sight, "Only 1 out of every 10 trips I get to see something like this!", she said. What you need to be ready to go on a "snow" hunt is to get up super early to catch the sight of the dew melting around 8 am. When the sun is up high, the "snow" field disappears - such a shame for late arrivals. From the town center, head towards the Golden Valley along Xo Viet Nghe Tinh Road. From the Scientific Research Institute of Highland, turn left at the T-junction. Continue another 4km towards the Golden Valley, look to the right to find a small trail. The trail is a little dangerous, so be careful. Continue for 1km, and you will find the field.
Sunflower filed in Lac Duong Prefecture The sunflower field sits within the Dalat Milk factory. You need to provide your identification card at the entrance, and leave your motorbike outside. No entrance fee was required, but I went and bought a milk carton in gratitude for the factory's hospitality. I found the field not as crowded and "noisy" as described by the newspaper. Trash bins were placed around the field, and people walked in order. The area was large enough for large crowds. The crowds of people there reminded me of my time spent in Owakudani, Hakone, Japan. Despite the big crowds, people still moved around in an extremely order fashion. From Dalat, head towards the National Highway No.20 and go in the opposite direction of Duc Trong, pass Finom T-junction. At Bong Lai T-junction, turn left, continue for 5km and you will find the milk factory and sunflower field. TRAVELLIVE

Cozy places to stay
Enjoy a hot coffee with your loved one
Dalat always brings me the warmest feelings. There is no need for one to stay in any luxury hotel or resort. I always choose places that have a "home" feel to stay at. Every time I go here, I choose a new place to stay, and all the dishes taste like new. I once stayed at –tä, a warm and pleasent small hostel in downtown. Poshtel, a house in the clouds with a beautiful garden, is another favorite of mine. Or, if you want to experience sleeping in a tent, The Shelter Homestay is the place to try. Each place I stayed has a different "home" feel, but one thing in common among them is the coziness. When I decide to bring that someone special with me to Dalat, I still choose to stay in those homes, share a family meal, chat with the owner about all things trivial, and especially live through the many amazing seasons in this beautiful town of love.
TRAVELLIVE
When you have enough of all the trips, it is time to return to Dalat, and find a romantic setting to spend with your loved one. That is what I usually do.
LY THaNH cO According to the travel blogger on VENTUROLOGY. ORG, everyone has an addiction, and that addiction to me is travel. Travel, writing, and photography have always been my passion, and that I will continue for many years to come. "Youth is a long story to tell."
You could easily take a trip in the morning, and come back to town in the afternoon. Visit one of the street cafäs, order a hot Cappuccino, and enjoy yourself. Bring a book with you, and the two of you can escape to your own world while spending precious time together. Love to me sometimes does not need too many words, and being able to spend moments of silence together is the most precious. What I always get from my favorite cafäs, An Coffee, Bi.cycle.up, and La Viet Cafä, is coziness and a good coffee. I just need to find that special someone now!

since an early age, I had always wanted to travel to bali with that someone special, and watch sunsets together. streaks of yellow and orange luminously fill this beautiful island with a certain charm and mystery, something of which I had always dreamt about, something I'm prone to. My wish was finally realized when my husband and I chose bali for our honeymoon. Text and photos: Kim Dung

e landed on Bali at around 5 in the afternoon, just in time to see the sun go down. I looked out from my plane's window, and to be honest, my heart stopped for a moment. The sky and the sea were woven together in brilliant hues of yellow and orange, and the clouds slowly drifted towards the horizon. We were greeted with such a breathtaking view. With an area of 5,633 km2, Bali is a bit too big to be explored in a few days. We decided to visit the most common attractions, and of course, chose a place where we could watch the most beautiful sunset. Later in the evening, my husband and I took a stroll on Legian Street, the most vibrant and bustling street in Bali. We stopped at a fruit juice street vendor for a drink, and had a small chat with the owner. He was kind enough to tell us some interesting places that we should visit during our short time in Bali. Balinese are mainly Hindu, so their
GETTING THERE ñ Currently there are no direct flights from Vietnam to Bali. Travelers must fly to Singapore, Malaysia or Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, before taking a domestic flight to Bali. There are a number of airlines available for you to fly with such as AirAsia, Tiger Air, Singapore Airlines, and Malaysia Airlines. You should select the earliest flight of the day, and transit where you need to. If lucky, you might land on Bali in the late afternoon, and have yourself some time to rest in the evening.

architecture is heavily influenced by Hindu traditions, especially the ancient temples, which often project a mysterious charm to visitors. My husband is an architect, so he was quite taken with the beauty of the Balinese temples. We went to discover different places, and took as many photos as we could before heading back to Uluwatu Temple to capture one of nature's finest moments. Perched on top of an outcroping that overlooks the ocean, Uluwatu is one of Bali's six most sacred temples. The temple, which is dedicated to Acintya, the supreme Hindu god of Indonesia, looked more charming than ever under the soft afternoon light. We followed the trail to Uluwatu Temple, and made a stop along the cliff where I thought would be the
windy. To higher place like Pura Ulun Danu Batur can be cold. You should bring a sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses. EXPERIENCE ñ Many spas in Bali are at affordable prices, and offer a wide range of massage packages for visitors. You should try a local spa for both mental and physical relaxation. There are many spas located along the busy street of Legian, so you can walk around until you are tired, and pick any spa you want along the way.
ideal place for us to watch the sunset. As the sun started to go down, the sky and the sea set the perfect orange and yellow stage for the blazing sun to be the only actor in the scene. When the red circle finally sank into the sea, everyone including us, could not help utter out loud our excitement at such a spectacular show from nature. The next day, we visited the Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park, the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, Dreamland Beach, Ubud Market and some other temples as suggested by our driver. We decided to catch the sunset once more, but at the Tanah Lot Temple this time. One of Bali's most iconic sites, Tanah Lot Temple is situated on top of a large rock, and is famed for its unique offshore setting and sunset backdrops.
buy handcrafted items as gifts. Handcrafted items are quite cheap (VND20,000 - VND200,000/item), and usually of reasonably good quality. You should ask your taxi drivers or your tour guides where to buy these items. They will take you to specialty shops where you can shop among hundreds of goods, and have a chance to get the best prices. CUISINE ñ Local Balinese foods are hot, spicy, and contain lots of strong herbs like curry. If you are not used to spicy foods, you can choose to eat Western food such as pizza, burger, or pasta.

The Hanging Gardens of Bali in Ubud is famous for its infinity swimming pool, and breathtaking view of the tropical forest. Or rent a villa in Seminayak for a more romantic and private experience. Resort and villa rates in Bali are almost the same, if not a little higher than those in Vietnam.

BALI, WITH ITS ANCIENT TEMPLES, SACRED AND UNIQUE CHARM HAS LEFT ME WITH NOTHING BUT UNFORGETTABLE ExPERIENCES. At high tide, the temple is surrounded by crashing waves. But at low tide, we could easily cross the rock base to reach the temple. Entering the temple grounds was not allowed, so we just took a small walk, and waited for the sun to go down. The rocks were covered in green moss. As I looked out to the vast blue ocean, I felt a sense of calm that I had never felt before, and all the while listening to the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks. Like us, many people came and waited to capture that last special moment of the day. Everyone moved closer to the water so as to have the best view of the beautiful sunset. As we waited, the sun was finally turning its color, and the lights slowly diminished. All we could see then was the shape of the Tanah Lot Temple in the red and yellow light. The sky darkened, and the sun finally disappeared behind the horizon. My heart was filled with joy, and I felt so lucky to capture such a breathtaking moment. Bali, with its ancient temples, sacred and unique charm has left me with nothing but unforgettable experiences. Visitors to this beautiful island are charmed by Bali's unique heritage and natural wonders. It may have been the sacred spritiuality of the Balinese, or amazing tropical sceneries of the white sand, blue sea and lush mountains. For me, it was the colorful and magical sunsets that inherently took my breath away.

EXPERIENCE THE SWEETNESS OF DOING NOTHING Valentine's is a season of love. what is more important in the world than finding joy in every little thing that we do? Let us try "Dolce far Niente", an Italian concept about the sheer joy of living in the moment. Text: Bao Khuyen Photos: Tran Quang Dai

"Dolce far Niente" literally means "the sweetness of doing nothing" in Italian. The Italians are known to place high importance on "me time", and the comfort of being on your own. The concept expresses perfectly what Italians most want from life, which is the ability to admire life in its simplicity, and savor every moment whenever they can. In Italy, it is common to find men and woman sitting leisurely at a cafä to chat, in contrast to the busy lifetyle of modern Europeans and Americans. Your heart will melt at the sight of old couples sitting by the lake to enjoy a nice day or holding hands lovingly on the street. Dolce far Niente was mentioned by Elizabeth Gilbert in Eat, Pray, Love, and made famous by the movie of the same title. The concept struck me deeply, and I could not help but think about how amazing it is to enjoy the simple things in life. Life is short, as we know, and would you rather live in a fast lane? Our hectic lives sometimes compel us to forget what is really important in life, and forget to share the most precious moments with our loved ones. Try to live as if today was your last.

From leisurely sipping a hot coffee before going to work, taking a summer stroll in the park to simply sitting by the lake to catch a breezy wind, the Italian way of life is a liberating concept that is different from the rest of the world.
How the Italians manage to get their jobs done, spend time with family, dress to the nines, perfect their rich culinary art, and all the while still have time to find simple pleasures in life is truly an art. e have to learn that it is perfectly ok not to arrive at work on time unless we have important things to attend. It is ok to leave work early, and come back home for a sweet nap. It is ok to leave all errands behind for once, and find a street cafä to enjoy a hot latte. It is ok to visit your favorite pub in the middle of the day or best yet, find a quiet place to finish that book that you have been reading. Perhaps though, all in moderation. From a certain point of view, the Italians do not think highly of the American way of life - the "live fast, eat fast", hours spent at work, and having only weekends to enjoy, shop at the supermarket and clean the house. The Japanese way of life is even worse as they get buried deep in work, and surrounded by too much technology, which in turns makes Japan the country with the highest rate of depression and stress. The Italians prefer a relaxed and family-centric lifetyle, and especially the need to nurture and nourish the soul in the most profound way. Life, I believe, is to be lived to the fullest. We are certainly not programed to eat, sleep and work everyday. Often we find ourselves waking up to dozens of questions in the morning from "Are we late?", "What needs to be done today?" to "How do I meet my deadlines and complete that unfinished report of mine?". The truth is we just need to open our eyes, smile, and think, "Today is a brand new day!" and it should be lived full of love! TRAVELLIVE

THE THRILLING STORY ABOUT A TREASURE HUNT IN BOLIVIA DURING THE INCA PERIOD WAS WHAT PROMPTED ME TO ExPLORE THIS AMAZING CENTRAL SOUTH AMERICAN COUNTRY. LONG BEEN KNOWN AS A HIDDEN LAND FULL OF WONDERS, BOLIVIA GRADUALLY REVEALED ITSELF BEFORE MY EYES. TRAVELLIVE

According to legend, the Inca king, Atahualpa was captured by Spanish conquistadors. The Spaniard Pisarro promised to release the king if the room in which the king from the royal vaults, and searched across the country for gold, and other jewelery, but the amount was insufficient. The deadline passed, and Pisarro ordered a brutal 11,000 Llamas quickly hid the gold away to unknown places in the Andes.

In preparation for my trip to South America, I stumbled on an interesting detail about this country situated among the forests and mountains of the Andes. I learnt of a relentless treasure hunt that has kept people searching for over four centuries. The hunt stretches from giant rocky plateaus, to red-sedimentary lakes and to craggy caves of the Andes, which was home to the Inca Indians.
SUCRE, HOmE TO 5,000 DINOSAUR fOOTPRINTS Sucre was the first stop in my journey to explore the mysteries of Bolivia. Located on the outskirts of Sucre is a nearly vertical 1,200m long and 80m high limestone cliff where hundreds of dinosaur footprints were accidentally discovered when the grounds were being cleared by a local cement company. During the Cretaceous period, this site was once a lakeside area that was home to a diverse population of dinosaurs. The feet of the dinosaurs sank deep into the soft ground when it was hot and humid. The footprints hardened when the area experienced severe droughts, and then were buried under layers of mud once the rain returned.
was kept was filled with gold and silver within two months. The royal family took all the treasures execution of the king. Upon hearing the death of the king, those who carried gold on the back of
Our local guide said the cycle repeated seven times, hiding layers of footprints. The tectonic activity then pushed the flat ground up, forming the almost vertical cliff that we see today. The Sucre government was beyond thrilled when this amazing site was found. They began to build museums, life-size models of the giant dinosaurs, and an observatory, so visitors could view the dinosaur tracks. Sucre is now a historic site with the most dinosaur footprints in the world. TRAVELLIVE

THE wORLD'S mOST SPOOKY wITCHES' mARKET After Sucre, we took a night bus to La Paz, the administrative capital of Bolivia - a city that attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors every year for its strange customs. Located in the valley of the Andes, and 3,640 meters above sea level, La Paz is considered the highest capital in the world, and is referred to as the city of clouds. The unique geographical position of La Paz reflects its own society. The rich settle in the lowest part of the valley, where they live and work in villas or private townhouses. The middle class lives in expensive condominiums near downtown areas. Located higher up on the hills are the many brick houses, which are home to the low-income. They somtimes are required to wake up quite early in the morning to travel downtown for work in order to avoid the constant traffic jams during office hours. We wandered into the Witches' Market in La Paz, hoping to explore the mysteries of the Andean culture. Over hundreds of years, the strange items sold here have hardly changed in terms of their symbolic spirituality. My friend freaked out when she saw the many horrendous products displayed in the shops. With 5-10 Boliviano, visitors can purchase a dried fetus of a Llama, a South American member of the camel family. These often dangled in front of shops at the market square. According to the owner of the shop, Llama fetuses are buried under the foundations of many Bolivian houses as
THe MArKeT IS rUN IN A SerIOUS MANNer, wHICH DeePLY refLeCTS THe rICHNeSS IN SPIrITUALITY Of LOCAL PeOPLe. a sacred offering to the goddess Pachamama or Mother Earth to ensure luck, health and happiness for family members. The desiccated frogs of the Aymara are said to bring wealth and prosperity. And the small figures in traditional Bolivian costumes represent the mighty fortune gods, and are believed to have a connection with spirits in the other world. Most items sold at the market are used not only as spells or worship rituals, but also for healing practices. An unspoken rule when visiting the Witches' Market in La Paz is that we must always show respect for the locals' spiritual beliefs. The market is run in a serious manner, which deeply reflects the richness in spirituality of local people. They often spend considerable amount of time to consult and help customers find the best amulet or remedy for problems. Any rude or disrespectful behavior from visitors is not welcomed.

THE LARGEST NATURAL mIRROR IN THE wORLD Next we were headed to the town of Uyuni, the world's largest salt flat at an elevation of about 4,000 meters above sea level. On our way, we made a stop at the Train Cemetery, 3 km outside the town, where there is a mass of rusted and eroded train locomotives. Once Bolivia's largest transportation hub for trains, it is now a deserted place. The area was built in the late 19th century by British engineers living in Uyuni. The local government believed a modern transportation system at the time would support the growth of the nation. The trains were particularly useful in the transportation of minerals, and goods both in and out of the country. The indigenous people however, saw trains as a cultural invasion, and often destroyed them. Later, in the 1940s, when resources were scarce, and due to the collapse of the mining industry, the trains became useless, and were left to rust and fade out of memory. We continued our journey and stopped at the village that mines and processes salt from Salar de Uyuni. Here, salt is harvested in the traditional way.
First, the salt is piled up into small mounds to evaporate, then dried over fire, and finally iodine is added before the packaging process. Visitors are invited to watch the traditional salt production process, and can even purchase small packages of salt as souvenirs. Interestingly, houses and hotels in Uyuni are built entirely of salt to create a unique feel for visitors, especially couples looking for a romantic place to stay. We finally reached our most anticipated destination when the sun was highest. Salar de Uyuni salt flat is located in the southwestern
part of Oruno and Potosi of Bolivia bordering Chile. Over 40,000 years ago, the area was part of the enormous prehistoric Lake Minchin. The lake dried up over time, and was divided into two smaller lakes, Poopo and Uru Uru, exposing two huge salt flats, Salar de Coipasa and Salar de Uyuni. To this day, Salar de Uyuni is considered the largest salt flat in the world, and is 25 times larger than the well-known salt flat Bonneville in Utah, USA. Our car accelerated on the vast surface of the salt flat, and all we could see was the sky and the ground
merging into one. The area is dry during winter months, but filled with water in summer, turning the whole landscape into a giant magic mirror. Surrounding the Uyuni salt flat are countless lakes, home to the famous South American flamingos where they feed and mate. Their diet include plankton and algae from the saltwater lakes, which are responsible for Uyuni's seasonal color change. Every year in November, thousands of flamingos make a long trip back here for mating, creating a spectecular scenery of pink lakes. TRAVELLIVE

SURREAL STRUCTURES Of THE INCAS The ruined ancient city of Tiwanaku is located in the southeast of Lake Titicaca, 72km west of La Paz. According to archaeologists, the area surrounding Tiwanaku had been inhabited since early 1,500 BC. Most studies are consistent with the hypothesis that Tiwanaku was built between 300 and 1,000 BC. Tiwanaku was at the time, the ritual and administrative center of the region. In 1945, Bolivian engineer Arthur Posnansky used archaeoastronomical techniques to estimate that Tiwanaku dated to 15,000 BC. This calculation technique however, was disregarded by other archaeologists. Even so, most archaeologists agree that Tiwanaku is the most ancient city in the world, existed even before the legendary Lake Titicaca. Tiwanaku's power began to decline in the 11th century, and completely collapsed in the 12th century. To this day, archaeologists have yet to find an answer to the sudden fall of the
12

Tiwanaku empire. One thing that they agree on is that Tiwanaku was once the capital, as well as the spiritual and political center of a powerful empire that lasted for 500 years. I was stunned standing in front of the archaeological ruins. The most impressive thing to me was the large platform mound around the central temple Kalasasaya, which is surrounded by high stone walls, made of red sandstone rocks that weigh up to 130 tons each. Archaeologists are still baffled as to how the ancient people carried these enormous blocks from the quarry that was 10km away. Scattered around the site are sophisticated structures, made of green Andesite stones that originate from the Copacabana Peninsula on Lake Titicaca. One theory is that these giant stones, which weigh over 40 tons were transported some 90 km across Lake Titicaca on reed boats, then laboriously dragged another 10km to the present location of Tiwanaku. A few hundred meters away is the intriguing site of Puma Punku, a
temple and monument complex of the ancient Incas. Archaeologists beliveve what remains today could only be built by beings with superior intelligence. The technical finesse and precision displayed in the making of those giant stone blocks is too astounding for words.

Puma Punku is a temple and monument complex of the ancient Incas, and archaeologists beliveve what remains today could only be built by beings with superior intelligence. The stone blocks are made of Granite and Diorite stones with a hardness level that is only second to diamond, almost impossible to cut through using ancient tools. The stone blocks look like they can only be cut using machines or laser cutters. The stone blocks were cut in such a precise way that they fit perfectly into and lock with each other without using any mortar. It is inconceivable that such fine and large-scale works as those were created thousands years ago. Puma Punku is situated at about 4,000 meters above sea level, where trees did not grow, and there was no wood rollers to carry the blocks while the nearest quarry was hundreds of kilometers away. Thus, the transport of hundreds of tons stone blocks to this site was impossible at the time. This is the reason why so many people believe these giant structures were created by aliens with advanced technology, or at least made under the direction of these superior creatures. Archaeologists agree that in terms of complexity and the high level of technical requirements, the pyramids built by ancient Egyptians required far simpler techniques than the stone blocks of Puma Punku. Tiwanaku and Puma Punku remain mysteries that will continue to attract visitors seeking to admire the ancient civilizations of Bolivia and South America. These surreal works are believed to be priceless treasures left by the ancient Incas for future generations. And maybe, this could be where the treasure of the legendary Atahualpa king was hidden.
ñ Bolivia is one of the countries that permit visa on arrival for Vietnamese citizens. You will be photographed, and granted a visa stamp on your passport for a fee of 53 USD/person for single entry under 30 days. ñ You must have your documents ready on arrival, which include a return air ticket, a hotel booking confirmation in Bolivia, complete information from date of birth, gender, passport number to passport expiration date, and particularly a yellow fever vaccination certificate. GET THERE ñ There are currently no direct flights about Vietnam to Bolivia. You have to transit in either Sao Paulo (Brazil), Bogota (Colombia) or Lima (Peru). To get around in Bolivia, you can use buses. For more information, visit www. ticketsbolivia.com or www.transcopacabanasa. com.bo. Some buses often travel solely at night. ACCoMModATIoN ñ If you want to experience local life, choose a homestay or a lovely guesthouse in La Laz, Sucre, and Copacabana. In Uyuni, stay at a salt hotel for about 150-200USD/ night. Food ñ The cuisine of Bolivia is made of mostly "meat" and "potatoes". The most common meat is beef, followed by chicken, llama and pork. Fish is common in areas surrounding Lake Titicaca. Guinea pigs (cuy) and rabbits (conejo) are eaten in rural areas. Visitors to Bolivia often like to try the popular grilled cuy. Bolivia is also famous for its street food, especially in busy cities like La Paz and Copacabana. ñ Some popular dishes include Anticucho (beef hearts grilled on a skewer, served with potatoes and spicy corn
sauce), Salchipapa (thinly sliced sausage fried with potatoes) or Choripan (Chorizo sandwich served with grilled onion and lots of sauce). WEATHER ñ Most areas in Bolivia have a dry climate in winter and are wetter in summer. Despite the tropical latitudes, its location on the Andes at an average elevation of over 3,500 meters, means that the cities of La Paz and Potosi are always cool, and warmer clothing is necessary for April and May. Summer in Bolivia lasts from November to March with a warmer and wetter climate. From April to October are winter months with a cooler and drier temperature. STAY HEALTHY ñ Some parts of Bolivia like La Paz, Potosi, Oruro and the Lake Titicaca region are high altitude, so adequate precautions against "sorojchi" altitude sickness should be taken. Local pharmacies can provide pills extracted from natural herbs to help visitors cope with the symptoms of "sorojchi". ñ In addition, the sun's ultraviolet rays are up to 20 times stronger than at sea level. A sun hat, sunglasses and sun block are advised.

Up Helly Aa is a fire fesival that celebrates the influence of Scandinavian Vikings in Shetland. The festival involves a procession of up to thousands of guizers marching through the streets in Viking costumes with axes and torches in arms, pulling along a replica of a Viking longship. At the end of the ritual, the guizers throw their torches into the longship and burn it. Once the longship has burned and the flames die down, guizers sing the traditional song "The Norseman's Home" before going on to a night of partying at local pubs, where they continue their celebrations indoor.
