A dive in Allinclusive concept of pArAdise vietnAm

P

aradise Vietnam is responding to growing appetite for more than just one night cruise experiences on Halong Bay by fashioning a new product line out of its existing fleet. This October, Paradise Vietnam launches its topnotch vessels, Paradise Prestige - the most sophisticated ships in the bay. The launch of Paradise Prestige will mark a dive into the all-inclusive concept for Paradise Vietnam, which it knows to be popular among high-end resorts and river cruise companies.

Paradise Prestige will give additional mouthpiece to the attraction by doing what one-night cruises cannot: sail away from the crowds and into more secluded territory, thereby creating another layer of exclusivity to the experience. Benefits will include a la carte meals, free-flow drinks and sparkling wine, one 50-minute spa treatment per person per day and business lounge access at Noi Bai International Airport.

Consisting of 15 cozy cabins across three (3) categories, both upgraded boats are reminiscent of their predecessor "the Paradise Luxury" in more ways than one. When it comes to the on-board experience, Paradise Group spares no expense. Four (4) lavish spa rooms have been installed on each boat to cater for each guest's 50-minute complimentary massage.

The creation of Paradise Prestige signifies the second major move made

by Paradise's cruise division this year. In March and July, the company made a splash by rolling out second Paradise Elegance ships, which at 61 meters long and 13 meters wide with 31 cabins are the biggest overnight cruising vessels in the UNESCO World Heritage site, ever.

Paradise Vietnam also owns and operates Paradise Peak and Paradise Luxury; the 156-room Paradise Suites and Paradise Trend hotels - the first and only boutique luxury hotels in Tuan Chau Island; and six restaurants, including two in Hanoi that consistently rank on TripAdvisor among the top 10 dining venues in Vietnam's capital, 3 in Ho Chi Minh city and 1 in Hoi An. hAnoI SALeS offfIce * Unit 201, 2nd Floor, Hanoi Tower, No.49 Hai Ba Trung Street, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi, Vietnam * Tel: +84 4 3941 6666 - Hotline: +84 906 099 606 * Email: info@paradisecruise.com * Web: www.paradisecruise.com TRAVELLIVE

Before coming to Vietnam, Mike used to control Bus Tours in London, Dubai, Hong Kong and Shanghai, where doubledecker buses seem to be a local "specialty". For him, it's the customers' experience that is the key of success in this service field.

"Danang is a potential city in developing tourism. When the city is welcoming more and more tourists, the debut of Cocobay will be a distinctive experience", shared Mike.

"It should be added that Cocobay is an original tourist product of Danang. With international-standard restaurants and entertainment services, this project is expected to attract more than 3 million tourists to Danang every year until 2020", shared Mike about the ambition of developing tourism in the most worth-living city of Vietnam.

For young tourists, traveling is not only to relax but also experience the real lifestyle of local people, beauty of nature and spectacular things. For me, I like viewing the sunset while sitting on a double-decker bus at different cities such as Melbourne, London or Shanghai. And now, I can definitely enjoy it here in Danang, Vietnam with Coco Bus Tour.

I would like to express my gratitude to Mike for his sharing and magnificent photos of the sunset at the sea city that I captured from the bus.

t's a special favor to be able to go along spacious streets and witness the sunset during the rush hour in a city center. I had a chance to enjoy a true afternoon on an open-top double-decker bus named Coco Bus Tour that reminded me of afternoons in London when I had a holiday in Danang city.

The tour was more exciting when we had a talk to Mike Norton, who is in charge of Coco Bus Tour operations, and listened to his stories in a nice afternoon.

One-way tickets for adults are priced at VND250,000 per person, and are valid for 24 hours after activation.

Particularly, on the occasion of its opening, Coco Bus Tour offers a 50% discount on tickets from September 1st to November 30th, 2017.

Although Hanoi does not lack the stream of good real estate products, there are not enough luxurious and modern ones that meet the income level and demand of many residents.

At integrated lifestyle townships, residents are entitled to luxurious living style, which is brought by synchronous and opulent conveniences and services, as well as a favorable location near the main streets. This makes travelling to the city center, the airport or the neighboring administrative, economic areas a breeze. In such posh ecological townships, young couples can be confident in their choice among a wide selection of condominiums, while larger families can opt for landed properties, such as semi-detached houses, villas and terraced houses. In addition, amenities within such townships are what customers take into careful consideration before deciding to become residents; such facilities include shopping malls, common areas for public activities, gyms and playgrounds for children. Desiring a balanced lifestyle more and more, modern customers prefer projects with abundant green living space and ecological design while ensuring effective use of energy in daily consumption.

In order to satisfy customer requirements regarding ideal living space, Gamuda Gardens township (Hoang Mai) began operation in 2014 with integrated facilies such as Clubhouse, shopping mall, 3 Son Health Care and Service Center, Little Maple and Blossoms@ Gamuda Gardens kindergartens, Red River petrol station and retail service center, in addition to series of evolutional real estate products. With five-star services and exceptional landscap, Gamuda Gardens has become one of the best residential developments in the capital for many urban dwellers.

Loving Vincent is the world's first fully oil painted feature film.

It is written and directed by Dorota Kobiela, who directed short movies such as Litte Postman, and Hugh Welchman, the producer of Oscar award's Peter & the Wolf. The life and controversial death of Vincent Van Gogh told by his paintings and by the characters that inhabit them. The intrigue unfolds through interviews with the characters closest to Vincent and through dramatic reconstructions of the events leading up to his death. Every shot is painted just as Vincent himself painted. In the summer of 1890, Vincent Van Gogh shot himself in a suburban of Paris.

Does the painting that he drew in the morning of that date reveal his situation at that time?

Back To BASICS WITH MOON CAKE & WOODEN MOLD

56

TRAVELLIVE

food&beverage

Autumn is once more awaiting us with one of the most special festivals of the year.

Every mid-autumn festival, people queue in front of traditional bakeries to buy delicious mooncakes. The sound of wooden molds clanging and the fragrance of mooncakes are spread everywhere from Vietnamese traditional kitchens.

Mooncakes, with their red "moons", which are egg yolks, herald a day of union, when family members gather and enjoy the cakes with tea while children play with lanterns in the evening.

However, how to make an appealing mooncake is not as easy as you may think. It requires sophisticated skills, including choosing a mold.

A

mong an array of colorful molds for making mooncakes, traditional wooden molds are the best choice to create the best looking cakes. Each wooden mold is unique because it is sculpted and shaped in a process which takes many hours by the skillful hands of artisans.

The wood for making molds should be of a good quality that is durable but soft enough to carve delicate patterns. The artisans, who make these moulds, should have the knowledge of a carpenter, sculptor and baker. Just a slight change of his hands can produce a different flower patterns. If the mold is deeply made, the cake will be thicker. Since a wooden mold is formed by a complicatedly process that only bakers who specialize in traditional cakes, or those who have a high demand of products, are willing to pay the expensive price for these exceptional wooden molds.

After a mold is made, it's time to prepare the ingredients for the mooncakes, which can be sweet or salty, baked or non-baked or even made of jelly. Vietnamese people often prefer mixed-filling mooncakes cooked with traditional recipes, including Chinese sausages, lean meat, peanuts and sesame seeds. The highlight of the cake is the egg yolk, which is salted with Mai Que Lo (A special kind of Vietnamese alcohol) and grilled before being added in the middle of the mooncake.

In order to make a mooncake, you are recommended to prepare home-made golden syrup at least 2 weeks before baking the cakes. Boil sugar with water until it is dissolved.

Add lemon juice, maltose and lye water to finish the syrup. The longer it is stored, the more golden the syrup is. It is used to make the cake more aromatic and beautiful. In the 1990s, the mixed filling was often too sweet and full of oil even though they were made of different types of salty stuffing. Mixed filling mooncakes are now more mouthwatering because bakers do not add much

sugar and oil (in order to store them longer time).

However, they still keep the main ingredients, which are composed of Chinese sausage, fat, stir-fried peanut, white sesame, melon jam, lotus seed, and lemon leaf. Grind all of them together, add some Mai Que Lo and make them into balls. The mooncake skin dough, which weighs half as much as the filling, is made of flour, egg and syrup. Mix all ingredients together and lightly knead to make a smooth dough.

Roll a ball of mooncake skin dough out and place a ball of mooncake filling in center, gather the skin up around the filling in even pleats and pinch to close it over the top.

Smooth out the skin gently until it is as even as you can get it.

Making a mooncake requires the patience and time of the baker. Even when it is put into the oven, each mooncake should be baked two or three times before its skin turns golden brown. With all of its sophistication, mooncakes represent good luck in the festive season.

The capital city of the Czech Republic is also known as "the city of a hundred spires" with the owing to the presence of numerous churches in the city. Prague is luckier than other cities of Eastern Europe because it was not destroyed by bombs and guns of the second World War. That may be the reason why Prague still retains its own soul of a city with an array of impressive architectural structures from the Medieval period even though its modern tourism is strongly developed.

If you ever visit this city for your honeymoon, you must visit the Charles stone bridge, which is also renowned as the "Love bridge", to hang your lock keeping your love dream of a happy couple on that.

In Prague, you can feel the hustle and bustle of a tourist city in the morning but peaceful and quiet ambiance in the evening. You can walk hand in hand with your partner on the Charles bridge in the evening, where yellow lights spead over ancient stone statues that make the whole area so etherial.

Prague not only offers its visitors impressive architectural buildings and attractive historical stories of its city, but it is also famous for mouthwatering cuisine with delicious dishes and Czech beer that have been Attracting gourmets for centuries. A romantic dinner on the top of old houses overlooking to the central Square will leave you with a lasting memory of this city.

ITINERaRY ñ From Vietnam to the Czech Republic, you can book a return ticket of Vietnam Airlines, Emirates or Thai Airways at about 600USD/one way ticket (excluding tax).

VISa ñ In order to be allowed to visit the Czech Republic and some European countries in the Schengen Area, you should apply for a Schengen visa at the Czech embassy in Hanoi or VFS Global in HCMC. RECoMMENDaTIoN ñ One of the most beautiful restaurants with a good view overlooking to the city is Terasa U Zlate Studne in U Zlatä Studne 4, on the rooftop of the Golden Well hotel.

RECoMMENDaTIoN ñ In Firenze, you can visit The Mall with an array of outlets selling products of famous fashion brand names such as Dolce & Gabbana and Gucci at half the price in other shops. You can take a bus from the center of Florence to this place. For more information, please visit www.themall.it. aTTRaCTIoNS ñ Siena church is one of the most outstanding churches in Tuscany with many artistic masterpieces decorating the ceiling and doms.

Tuscany (or Toscana in Italian) is a region in Italy composed of many small and big cities, of which Florence, Pisa, Siena, and the land of vineyards, Chianti, are favorite.

If Florence and Pisa are too popular and crowded with tourists around the world, Siena, Chianti and other small towns are ideal places for you to enjoy a romantic honeymoon in Italian style.

Italian food has always been in competition with the neighboring French region in regards to both the cuisine as well as the exceptional wine. In Tuscany, visitors can taste different types of ham, bacon and porchetta, a savoury, fatty, and moist boneless pork roast of Italian culinary tradition, served with wheat bread. It's fantastic to enjoy a baguette with grilled meat and drink a cold glass of Azzurro beer.

When you feel a little bit "overloaded" with the crowds and noisy ambiance of Florence, you can visit the little city of Arezzo, where Roberto Benigni directed and starred in the famous movie, "Life is beautiful", about the second World

War. The film recieved more than 30 nominations in different categories in 11 famous International Film Festivals and won most of those nominations. You will, however, not see churches with doms decorated by famous artists from the Renaissance or museums with priceless paintings in Arezzo. But the little street, where Guido used to walk with Dora, and red brick houses with fresh flowers will surely convince you that the life in Arezzo is beautiful.

In autumn, when the sky is so blue and the local people have finished their harvest, only the yellow roots of wheat are left in the fields. That is the best time to take a romantic collection of wedding photos in Italy. One of the most beautiful destinations to take photos in autumn here is Val d'Orcia, especially the street between Bagno Vignoni and Poggio Grande. From the peaks of numerous hills, you can view the immense vineyards and gray mountains slowly hidden in the sunset.

Although it is a capital city of Holland, Amsterdam is small enough for you to walk through comfortably to discover. If you would like to experience the feeling of the Netherlands, rent a bike and ride with your partner around the city.

In addition to the bikes and small canals surrounded by brick houses, Amsterdam is also famous for artistic museums, including Rijks museum with the famous "The night watch" painted by Rembrandts, and the Van Gogh museum. If you are interested in history, you should visit Anne Frank's house or Anne Frank museum, where Anne Frank, her family and some Jewish people lived when they were chased by the Facists during the second World War. From Amsterdam, you can buy a day tour to Zaanse Schans, also called the "Windmill village".

Here you can discover the process of making cheese and traditional wooden shoes of the Dutch people. You will have a chance to witness huge windmills built hundreds of year ago still in operation.

It takes about 30 minutes to travel from Amsterdam to Utrecht, the fourth largest city of Holland. As an untouched gem, Utrecht is not as outstanding as Amsterdam, which is very popular to tourists in Europe. However, Utrecht is attractive with ... bikes! With a population of about 16.8 million, Utrecht has 19 million bikes. It's ideal to rent a bike and ride around the city with your partner.

Noone reveals the reason why the city center, built from the 6th century, is linked by very narrow streets. They are so narrow that people can only walk or ride a bike. Each day, there are about 100,000 bikes moving in the city, about 50% of total means of transportation in Utrecht. Even the mayor ride a bike to go to work everyday!

This may remind you of a Vietnamese song named "Bike!" written and sung by the couple Phuong Thao and Ngoc Le in the 1990s. The song expresses the same emotional feeling when you and your lover ride a bike around Utrecht.

The traffic laws of Holland and many European countries do not allow you to ride a bike carrying another adult. (You can carry a child but the bike should be equipped with a chair on its back for children).

However, your biking journey will not be less romantic. With a lover by your side, no matter where you go, it will be dreamlike and perfect.

Santorini island is a perfect destinations for beautiful photos of couples. If you ever visit this place, you will surely think that this island is only for loving couples. You can see couples walking hand in hand everywhere on the island or looking at each other with their charmed eyes in small cafes under the red confetti flowers.

It seems that there is no where else in the world where people wait for the sunset like in Santorini.

Each day, when the sun goes down on the sea surface and wipes the last sunshine of the day on white-washed houses of Greece, hundreds of visitors gather on sea-view balconies and hold their breathe to wait for this marvellous moment. There is nothing more romantic than this moment with one's darling.

If you are planning a romantic dinner with delicious food and wine, Santorini is your choice.

Sip a glass of Greek wine and view the deep blue Aegan sea, and you will feel as if you were listening to the sound of the ocean whispering about the legends of Gods.

This city in the Southwest of France is more interesting than just the wine it is famous for. Though of course, when you come to Bordeaux, you should not miss visiting famous wine castles in the region. There are about 10,000 wine manufacturers in Bordeaux and many tourist agencies providing you different tours to visit and taste the wine in a half day.

Some people call Bordeaux a mini Paris but local people may not like this. In recent years, this landscape has been changing from a small and quiet city to a famous and active one with many cultural, artistic, tourism and culinary activities for visitors. This may be the reason why it is compared to Paris.

However, unlike attractions with crowds of guests and skyscrappers that make Paris look narrow and oppressive, Bordeaux brings you a different ambiance and feeling. It features blue sea and red wine, which may be the reason why local people in Bordeaux only wants to be "Bordeaux" instead of Paris.

Place de la Bourse castle with a huge "mirror" in front of the building is a must-see in Bordeaux. The mirror is actually a large area paved with granite and filled with water 2cm deep to make it a big "mirror" reflecting the blue sky of Southern France and the opulence of the castle. Sometimes, the "mirror" sprays water to entertain both adults and children.

Kyoto, the ancient captiol of Japan, has long been a favorite destination of Vietnamese tourists. Here, you can imagine every characteristic of an ancient Japan with geisha wearing plain wood clogs and quiet tea shops in Gion district. In addition, you will see 1000 red Tori gates in Fushimi Inari-taisha temple that appear in every image about Kyoto.

One of the most interesting destinations in Kyoto is the bamboo forest in Arashiyama. The bamboo forest's high tree stick to each other to form a dom like an enormous green tunnel. You will see Japanese girls in their traditional costume, the kimono, and a big flower in their hair walking in the cool green bamboo trees. Sometimes, they will stop to take photos and then chat with their friends. Not many countries can show the harmony of the tradition and modernity quiet like Japan.

If you visit Kyoto in autumn, you will be amazed by the red and yellow color of mable leaves and the blue color of the lakes. In the cold breezes, you can sit in a cozy tea shop with your lover and indulge in the feeling of the season.

n the way from Frankfurt to Mainz by train with my friend, I could see the blue sky, peaceful spaces and trees changing their color in early autumn. After 30 minutes, the roof of the Mainz old church slowly appeared in my sight.

Our train stopped at the little station of Mainz, where we started to discover the city, which impressed me by how narrow its streets were right away. It was a little bit cold in the morning. We walked slowly in the light sunshine along small roads to the old quarter.

CITy COaTED wITH wEDDINGS

Many visitors prefer taking a tram to tour around the city as if they want to live in the space of old values

The romantic coat of Mainz is like a passionate fermenter to urge visitors to explore this lovely city. In Mainz, you will feel as if you were in the Germany of the 17th - 18th centuries. St. Martin, or Mainzer Dom, the highest building of the city is located in the old quarter. In front of the cathedral was a big square surrounded by antique houses.

In Mainz, you will see the perfect combination of antique architectural style and modern lifestyle. If you step inside aged buildings, you will easily see an array of classy offices, stores, restaurants and fashion shops.

St. Martin, the heart of Mainz, impresses visitors with its Gothic architectural style and a dome 32m high. This structure was sophisticatedly constructed and completed over 250 years ago. I was attracted by the clear crystal windows and a masterpiece of over 100 images about Saint Peter, a powerful symbol for Catholics at that time. When looking at the dome, I felt as if I was protected by God. The statue of a smiling angle also contributes to the fame of this church.

We passed by the stone bridge at the gateway of the city following the millions of footprints that used to step here for centuries. When we walked into the shopping center, I was amazed at the souvenir shops, in which some of them showcase their lovely products on the hall or in their windows. Even if you only drop by to have a look, shop owners will always smile to you and say "danke schรถn", which means "Thank you".

One of specialty items that most visitors to Germany choose are music boxes that are as small as matchboxes. You can choose among numerous music melodies such as Blue Danube or songs about spring or pieces from famous musicians. Each song is also the main decoration theme of the box.

After wandering around shopping streets, we take our chance to try a glass of German beer, traditional bread that has become a culture of German people, and tempting slices of bratwurst. Grilled bratwurst, salted bread, mashed potatos and salad served with a glass of beer is a popular menu of German people.

ROMaNCE By RHINE RIvER Our tour guide, Mathias, was a local guy who was born and grew up here.

He knows and shared with us very clearly about the history of Mainz. We walked to the Rhine river, happened many historical events of the country happened. The Rhine river flows throughout the city and brings both serenity and peace to this landscape.

Mathias said that since his family used to live on the river bank, he had many special memories about this place. He used to play with his friends on the bank after school or watched swans with some girls. "Time may destroy anything but not this river that has witnessed many changes of the city", VISa said Mathias. For me, I felt as if the In order to apply for a visa to modern life with its bustle and hustle Germany, you should submit your could not touch this ancient city. documents at the embassy of The evening in Mainz was fabulous with yellow lights from ancient architectural structures sparkling in the dark sky. Sloping roads leading to the church as well as the central square were hidden in dark and light colors. Restaurants and stores were lit by candles and the city was filled with the sound of soft melodies played by some artists with their accordions in the streets. Here and there, couples walked hand in hand which made this atmosphere even more romantic than ever.

At the end of the day, we enjoyed an authentic German meal with Mathias's family in the cold weather of autumn. I felt very lucky to have a chance to visit Mainz, the pink city of Germany.

there is a destination that I always wanted to hold in my arms. It's regarded as the most romantic city of the world.

It's Venice, the floating city built on an ancient lagoon along the Adriatic sea in northeastern Italy. Venice is most romantic in autumn with the sparkling colors of glassy arts and crafts and refined embroidered items. More than that, a visitor can indulge in the floating and happy feeling of perpetual love in Venice.

STEP TO THE CANAL STREET When we first walked out of Santa Lucia station, my boyfriend and I smiled because we then understand the reason why people can't deny the passionate beauty of Venice.

In the light sunshine of autumn, Venice was so fantastic with blue color from the Grand Canal, the sound of visitors pulling their luggage and chatting, and of course the aromatic smell of foods in neighboring restaurants that have been attracting guests for ages.

We first went around the Grand Canal by vaporetti, a kind of water bus and dropped by Palazzo Ducale, built in the 9th century. We were surprised at the magnificence and opulence of the building with a marble corridor built in Gothic style. The Enormous stairs were decorated with statues of Nereid and the God of War. Inside, the building was sophisticatedly beautified by big paintings and wooden sculptures on the ceiling.

Nearby, the sumptuous Basilica di San Marco built in 829 was also an attractive site. The basilica was remarkable with a golden tower that maked local people call this place Chiesa d'Oro (Golden Church). Visitors will feel the artistic space and original sculpture made in the Byzantine style with a remarkable arch designed in the shape of a Greek cross.

Passing bridges and some small squares, we arrived at Osteria Al Portego restaurant to enjoy a light lunch with special dishes, including sarde in saor, which is fried sardines with onion mixed in apple vinegar and tomato, and baccalÂľ alla vicentina, which is salted cod with tomato, caper buds and onion. These dishes were specially cooked with recipes right from the 17th -18th century! To increase the flavor, we had the meal with Prosecco white wine. Since Italy is famous for pizza, spaghetti, pasta and lasagna, we tried to taste other dishes to truly experience the local cuisine.

fter lunch, we decided to explore Venice in our own way without a map. We followed straight streets crossing big and small squares and viewed remarkable structures, Roman buildings with pillars and arches throughout the city. Small houses with colorful flowers, souvenir stores with lovely masks, colorful packages of pasta, arts and crafts and the fragrant smell of pizza, they all appears so glamorous that one might be assured that any traveler would remark as to the city's beauty.

We visited Florian cafä on St. Marco square to enjoy the afternoon and looked at the blue sea with floating gondolas. In the late afternoon, we went to Harry's Bar to sip a glass of spritz, which is Prosecco white wine mixed with sparkling mineral water, and order the famous dish of carpaccio cooked by the owner, Giuseppe Cipriani. It was fresh slices of beef and salmon set on the plate with lemon, olive oil and truffle mushrooms or Parmesan cheese.

In the evening, Venice is sparkling and fanciful with the light sound of splashing waves. People are not in a

MASTERPIECES OF GLASS From Venice, we take a vaporetti to Murano island to discover the art of manufacturing blown glass at the heat of 2000 degree Celcius, the same art that was practiced in the 10th century. They melted sand and limestone to make materials for the glass masterpieces.

These glass factories were originally located in the city of Venice though eventually this art was spread to Murano island in the 13th century. We had a chance to witness artisans producing various glass products such as colorful bottles, vases, frames and jewelry with different materials.

FURTHER INFoRMaTIoN

Murano is not as lively as Venice. We walked through small lanes, choose a local restaurant near the canal and ordered bagna cauda, salted fish with garlic sauce and olive oil, a plate of risotto alla milanese, Italian seafood rice and saffron, and some slices of bruschetta, grilled bread with pate and cheese. We enjoyed lunch with white wine in the cool sea breeze of autumn and felt as relaxed as we felt in love with the city of Venice.

After that, we found our way to the fairy island of Burano with bright and colorful houses that captivates all guests from their first step upon the island Burano brought us a peaceful feeling and wiped away all our worries of our daily lives. Like Venice and other small islands, the narrow streets were linked by different bridges over blue canals. The main means of transportation were boats anchored in front of every house. Although Burano does not boast big works of architecture, its colorful little houses along the canal and the embroidered art originated from the 16th century offered tourists unforgettable memories.

Returning to Venice after a long day and looking at people passing Ponte Degli Scalzi bridge, I wished I had more time here to discover every corner of the city. Venice always provides new experiences and brings guests its own attraction each day. There are not only famous sights and refined cuisines but also serenity and peace that make your love even better here.

when I read about Egypt when I was young, I thought it was some remote region only written of in books. I was obsessed, and my imagination was filled by this country because of a famous story in the Bible about Egypt as told in a film named Moses - the prince of Egypt. this country, the greatest ancient civilization of human beings, reveals not only pyramids and ancient untouched temples. few people know that with its area spans two continents, and it features a magical landscape in Asia.

Trekking at Sinai by camel

t

he part of Egypt in northern Africa is composed of more than 90% desert and 5% the Nile river, along which most of the population has settled. This country is famous for its Suez Canal connecting the Mediterranean Sea with the Red Sea. This canal also separates Egypt into two different regions, one in Asia and the other in Africa. The Asian part is totally located on the Sinai peninsula.

The Sinai peninsula has a strange geography divided into North Sinai and South Sinai. North Sinai is a mountainous and desert-filled area while South Sinai is surrounded by the Red Sea and is a well-known destination of sea lovers. I visited Egypt on a winter day and planned to go across the Suez canal to the nation's Asian part to dive in the Red Sea and touch the sacred mountain of Sinai.

ARRIVE IN tHE mIlItARy AREA There are two different ways to travel from Cairo to this peninsula, by bus and by airplane. Mohamed Gad, my new friend and a tour guide recommended I travel by airplane for my safety and to save time as I was travelling alone. However, I choose to travel by night bus because I wanted to save money while experiencing and

feeling the daily life of local people.

Gad took me to the bus station and showed me how to buy tickets as well as catch the bus. I was a little bit worried because all the words were written in Arabic, a language that I couldn't understand. Gad advised me to show my ticket to local people, who would be willing to help me because Egyptian people are very calm and hospitable. Egypt is also one of the world's safest countries for tourists.

"Safe?" I asked myself. The local men looked very big with bright eyes and moustache that I feel a little scared.

At 9p.m, there were few people in the ticket room where only one counter out of four was open. Although the room was quite small and simple, the ticket selling system was so modern.

In front of each counter, there was an LCD screen to show the seats for passengers to choose and then the seller just needs to confirm the information again before they print out the ticket.

The night bus was quite deserted.

The bus was clean. It only offered chairs, not small beds as in Vietnam although it runs a long route. I left my baggage in the cabin and got in the car where there were only men. In the first 30 minutes within Cairo, the bus driver played bibles in Arabic but when we moved to the highway, he turned on Arabic films which meant I was in for a sleepless night.

At mid-night, when I started to sleep, the bus stopped and people talked loudly enough to wake me.

Outside, other buses also stoped and passengers get in and off helterskelter. I was surprised when other passengers stood in a circle, open their luggage and then left it in front of them. Around them, policemen dressing in black costumes with their guns in hand went here and there.

Following signals of the driver, I got off the bus and queue as other passengers with my luggage opened in front of me.

Policemen carefully checked every piece of luggage. I realized that they were checking for security because our bus was going to cross the Suez canal to Asia. We had to stop every 30 minutes after that for inspections, but these times we did not have to get off the bus and show them our luggage. We arrived at Sharm El Sheikh station at roughly 7a.m, after nearly 9 hours on a route of more than 700km.

Sinai peninsula is a militarized area of Egypt. This area borders with Israel and is separated from Saudi Arabia by the narrow gulf of Aqada. With its geography in a sensitive location, especially after the Six-day War in 1967 by Israel and the neighboring states of Egypt (known at the time as the United Arab Republic), this peninsula is carefully regulated by Egyptian military.

IN THE SUNSET ON THE RED SEA, THE WATER IS REMARKABLE WITH LIGHTAND DARK BLUE, SOFT AS A SCARF ON A BEAUTIFUL LADY'S NECK.

GREEN LINE IN THE RED SEA

lthough the island is a sensitive military area, Sinai is only second to Cairo in the number of tourists thanks to its beautiful landscape and the government's effort in encouraging local tourism.

Sinai is proud of two "natural treasures", which are Ras Mohamed National Park and Sinai Biblical Mount that have been attracting a large number of tourists. You will easily see many magnificent 4-6 star hotels and resorts along the beach in the south of this peninsula and few houses of local people. Residents on the island mainly gather at Na'ama Bay in Dahab, hundreds of kilometers from Sharm El Sheikh. Dahab is the second choice for sea activities after Sharm El Sheikh.

"Because the whole peninsula has a population of nearly 600,000 people, most labors come from other regions. Since Islam is the national religion, men often take part in most of works while women spend their time at home", shared Gad when I ask him why there were only men on the bus on my last journey.

I put my luggage in the hotel and drank a glass of hot coffee before getting in the car that Gad booked for me to the wharf for diving.

Sharm El Sheikh provided many diving locations, in which Shark Reef in Ras Mohamed is the most favorite. This place is famous for barracuda fish and, if you lucky, you will have a chance to see reef shark.

The high speed ferry service here is quite modern with spacious and clean ferries, featuring changing and bath rooms. There was also a living room and small food counter. The sundeck was used for relaxation and viewing the sea.

Mahmoud, who guided us on the dive, recommended I dive in Tiran island, the second most popular diving place in this peninsula. Or one can go snorkeling in Blue Hole, Aqada Bay. However, because Blue Hole is a large marine cavern divers are required to have diving experience and skills before registering for the diving tour.

Each diving place offers guests remarkable beauty with sights of different coral reefs and sea creatures. This is also the reason why famous magazines voted these destinations among the most beautiful diving places of the world.

After a day diving in the sea with various emotions in the scenery that was like a wonderland, I spend the whole afternoon to witness the sunset at the cape of Ras Mohamed national park. The cape was a small landscape spreading to the sea with some geological cracks where visitors could view small fish and coral reefs deep in the clear sea water. I looked far away from the shore. In the sunset on the Red Sea, the water was remarkable, a light and dark blue soft as a scarf on a beautiful lady's neck. http://issuu.com/Travellive TRAVELLIVE

IN THE MIDDLE Of THAT ROAD, THE SUN ROSE LIKE AN ENORMOUS fIRE BALL SEEMING SO CLOSE THAT WE COULD ALMOST TOUCH IT. ALL OF A SUDDEN, IT WAS AS If THE WHOLE AREA Of HILLS AND MOUNTAINS TOOK Off ITS BLACK COAT AND PUT ON A NEw PINK SHIRT THAT SURPRISES EVERY VISITOR.

toUCHING tHE lANd oF old tEStAmENt "Today God loves his people and calls them to Sion mount" (Sion is Sinai today. This name was written in the Old Testament. Sinai is also called Moses mountain by Egyptians).

That's a script written in a famous hymn of 1950s that any Catholic person might have heard before.

Written in the hymn for Exodus

tHanH cao TRAVEL BLOGGER AND PHOTOGRAPHER Used to be a successful manager in various companies and multi national corporatioins; however,his passion of traveling and writing pulled him out of the safe zone to indulge in international destinations. With his motto of "traveling to touch destinations and coming back with positive changes", his articles and photos manifest the real beauty of paths, cultural marks, local architecture, people and life of locations that he passed by.

Thanh Cao is a popular contributor of many travel newspapers and magazines.

He is also the co-founder of OffTrack Travel Company.

about Moses, a foreteller of the Old Testament who took 70 people to this sacred mountain to receive Sinai Obligation, which included the Ten Commandments To see the sunrise on Sinai mountain, visitors will have to depart from 11:00p.m from Sharm El Sheikh or Dahab, where it takes about three hours to travel to the gathering place at the foot of the mountain.

I joined a group of tourists and we were introduced to a local tour guide named Mohamed, who would take us to climb up the mountain. After some greetings and introduction about himself, Mohamed shared with us some information about the trekking path, which was a rugged but safe and easy trail.

t

here was only the light from flashlights of pilgrims in the dark sky as we started.

Mohamed leads the team and sometimes doubled-back to check on us. We stopped every 15-20 minutes to take a rest and then continued our journey up the mountain. After an hour, we reached the first leg, where there was a wooden house with chairs leaning on the walls for visitors. The host also served tea, coffee and cake. An Italian couple in our group decided to stop here because they are not able to

climb up and do not want to delay the team. For them, setting their feet to the mountain was enough.

At the second leg, when Mohamed and I become closer, he asked me whether I wanted to ride a camel lying in front of us. It was an animal of the host here. Mohamed would negotiate to rent it at a cheap price.

Of course, we could only ride the camel to the third leg and then go on foot up the more than 600 stone stairs to the peak. I agree was him because I was so tired and also wanted to experience riding a camel to the peak.

It was really a memorable experience to ride a camel up the mountain.

At first, I feel scared because the path was very dark with a mountain cliff on one side and an abyss on the other side. As well it was sometimes slippery. I can't predict the consequences if the camel walks on any slippery rock. "Don't worry.

Camels have a very good memory.

It remembers the way up clearly.

Its eyes can see in the darkness.

eXpecteD BUDGet The budget for three days two nights on the Sinai peninsula is about $240ĂŤ, including a trekking tour to Sinai mount, Catherine monastery, snorkeling for a day, local transportation, food and beverage.

Further inFOrmAtiOn VISa You can prepare the necessary visa documents and apply for a visa at the Egyptian embassy in Hanoi. It's easier to apply for a visa to Egypt than other developing countries.

It will cost you about $25 for single entry and $35 for a multiple entry visa. If you book a tour through an Egyptian tourist agency or travel in a group of 10, you can apply for a visa on arrival at $65/visa/single entry for 30 days.

TRaNSPoRTaTIoN ñ The bus ticket from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh is quite cheap at $5-$10. You can also take a domestic flight offered

by Nile Air or Egypt Air during the day at $120-$200/ticket which lasts an hour. ñ Taxi is the most convenient vehicle if you travel within the city. It's easy to book a taxi even in the evening. With some taxi carriers, you should negotiate the price before you go. aCCoMMoDaTIoN There is a wide range of hotels and resorts at reasonable prices. Three to four star hotels are priced at $25-$40/ night/double room. Resorts on the beach are priced from $60/room/night. You are advised to book a room that is suitable for your budget one week before your departure.

Remember to check the location of your hotel/resort on the map because some are situated far from the city center.

BEST TIME To TRaVEL

There's never been any accident happening before", encouraged Mohamed. I have no choice but to believe his words. I got used to sitting on the camel very soon and started to look up the mountain. The sky was bright with numerous stars. It was quiet and spread out to the universe which brought me a safe feeling..

We were the first group to reach the peak. Mohamed encouraged us to find a good place on the peak to view the sunrise. He chose a place by the flat rocky platform by the mountain with a large view. We all sat by the cliff to wait for the sun rising.

Time passed by slowly. It was 6 o'clock in the moring and a pink road appeared at the horizon and then become bigger and bigger until it turned to a light orange red color. In the middle of that road, the sun rose like an enormous fire ball seeming so close that we could almost touch it. All of a sudden, it was as if the whole area of hills and mountains took off its black coat and put on a new pink shirt that surprises every visitor.

On the way down, tourists could visit a UNESCO cultural heritage site, located at the foot of the mountain: Saint Catherine's monastery. This was one of the oldest monasteries in the world featuring a chapel with thousands of precious antiquities, and an old well, where the profit Moses met his wife.

In particular, you can see the bramble tree, where God appeared in the image of a fire pillar to call Moses to lead the Jewish people cross the Red Sea to the promising land, modern day Israel and Palestine today.

Even after I finished my journey, I still didn't believe that I stepped onto the sacred landscape of Sinai. I understood that, in some ways, this planet always opens doors for those, who are dreaming of visiting secret lands.

You can visit this destination all year round, but beware that from June to August it is very hot. The best time to visit is from October to February, when the weather is cool and pleasant. Although the temperature can be at 20 degree Celcius, the sea water is always warm at 25-27 degree Celcius.

EXPERIENCE ñ Trekking by camel on Sinai sacred mout: You can ride a camel to climb up the mountain in nearly 3 hours, from the foot of the mountain to the third leg before you walk up the 600 stone stairs to the peak to view the sunrise. Service charge: $10/person. ñ Experience a glass bottom boat for a day: $50/person. You can take a glass bottom boat and use it at your conveniences while viewing the coral reefs in the sea in a day. ñ Snorkeling: You will be picked up at the hotel at 8a.m and be taken to the wharf and brought back at 5p.m. The boat will take you around the sea during the day. It will stop at 3 different diving places, an hour each. Visitors will have to pay $50/person, including equipment, lunch and nonalcoholic drinks. ñ Scuba diving for guests owning PADI certificate: Visitors are offered the same services as snorkeling at diving places.

Price: $15/turn. ñ Special service: renting a boat to take wedding photos for a day. This service is quite attractive because of its luxurious standards, programs and extraordinary services, including a boat that can hold up to 20 people. It will take the bride and groom to one of beautiful islands for photo shoot. If you want to own an original wedding album under water, you will have to pay an extra amount of $20 for a collection and DVD. It costs about $65 for renting a boat, diving equipment, lunch and non-alcoholic drinks.

EXPENSES A return ticket is priced at $700 (offered by Etihad airlines with a stopover at Abu Dabi). The budget for a 10 day 9 night trip in Egypt is around $890, including experiences on the white and black deserts (camping in 2 days and one night), five-star cruise between Cairo and Aswan (5 days and 4 nights on the Nile river), five-start train tickets between Luxor and Cairo and main sights (Iris temple, Abu Simbel temple, Edfu, Hatshepsut, pyramids and Cairo museum).

CoUNTRySIde LaNdSCaPe bout 60km from the capital's center, the way to Ba Vi is filled with the green and yellow colors of the autumn in Hanoi. We got in the small van to the mountain.

The driver stared at the route ahead and moved the wheel skillfully through curves.

At Ba Vi National Park, you can listen to the poetic sound of the mountain and forest, discover the legend of Son Tinh and Thuy Tinh (the God of the Mountain and the God of the Water) from the first day of forming our country and touch the clouds at the peak worshiping the God of the Mountain. First comers here will be amazed at a kingdom of plants with more than 1,000 species, including many precious trees. Do not forget to

drop by the unoccupied greenhouse, where gardeners grow heath-bells and cactuses with over 1,200 species, in which some of them are as high as 2-3 adults one on top of the other.

TIME RETAINED IN aNCIeNT BRICKS Ba Vi is not only famous for legends about the God of the Mountain, Princess Ngoc Hoa or King Hung, but it is also where you can go back to the history in the 100 year-old street built from the Indochina time. You can also walk through the historic relics at the height of 600m (cote 600m) and view the residence of high-ranked officers during the French occupation at cote 800m unoccupied churches, helicopter airport and orchid garden.

From Cau Giay district, Hanoi to Xuan Khanh town, pass by Tam My

market about 200m and then turn left to a concrete street, you will arrive at Ba Vi National Park. Passing by marker 400 about 1.5km, you will see the road sign plate written with "Cote 600 historical site". The French colonial palace was nearly destroyed but still retains its stone wall, machine gunners, floor with thick flower tiles and characteristic patterns of the French. Flower patterned tile was a very luxurious material only used in palaces and by public authorities.

After being tiled, workers had to scrape out coconuts and placed them onto bricks. Coconut oil would be extracted and absorbed into the bricks to make the floor brighter and shinier.

Cote 600 is also the highest place in this landscape, where you and your family can relax in the historic space from the 1940s. This place offers many ancient architectural structures

for visitors to view. At the weekends, you can come here Ba Vi sunbathe, swim on a rooftop pools and enjoy a peaceful day in the mountain.

dISCoveR THe CULINaRy woRLd Of BA VI Visitors can taste an array of local foods which are cooked from local ingredients such as veal, chicken, mudfish and goat. You can also drive to the back side of Ba Vi National Park to explore the world of fresh cow milk and try products from milk such as milk cake, goat yoghurt, caramel or junket (a sweet, custard-like food of flavored milk curdled with rennet) at sweet manufacturers or local farms. It would certainly be a memorable way to spend your day at Ba Vi sipping a glass of hot goat milk or eating caramel, and junket with peppers and salt at the farm.

Ba Vi mountain is an ideal destination to go back into the history and experience the classy hospitality style of the noble class in the natural forest with wild flosses, chestnuts and orchids.

Mu Cang Chai terraCed field festival

It is commonly thought that the festival was bought to Phuket from 1825 by a wandering Chinese opera group who fell ill with malaria while performing on the island. These Chinese people believe that abstinence from meat and various stimulants during the ninth lunar month of the Chinese calendar will help them obtain good health and peace of mind.

Hermanus is just the right place to pay homage to the magnificent Southern Rights. And there's no better time to recognize their miraculous being than during September, which is peak whale-watching season in the coastal village. Visitors get to enjoy the unbelievable sightseeing opportunities while getting clued up on the plight of the endangered creatures.

Dussehra celebrates the Hindu god Rama's victory over the demon king Ravana and the triumph of good over evil. The epic Ramayana tells the story of the Lord Rama who wins the lovely Sita for his wife, only to have her carried off by Ravana, the demon king of Lanka.
