A visit to Abu Dhabi is incomplete if you have not stopped by the charming Heritage VillageIt is serenely positioned overlooking the Corniche, near Abu Dhabi’s Breakwater and only a short distance away from the imposing Marina Mall.
Visitors can guage some inkling of what life was like for Abu Dhabi’s Bedouin by viewing a reconstruction of their traditional desert encampment - including a goat’s hair tent and a campfire with coffee pots.
The Heritage Village also features a reconstruction of the “old well and irrigation system, mud-brick houses, old fishing villages and suoqs (bazaars).”
Quite interestingly the Heritage Village features several workshops that simulate old-fashioned metal work, the heritage village craftsmen often let visitors try their hand on such skills.
A spice shop within the Heritage Village treats the visitor’s culinary senses and a small souvenir also shop sells handicraft items. A mini-museum featuring artefacts such as diving tools, jewellery, weapons and coffee pots, amongst others, rounds up the Heritage Village experience.
There are no restrictions for photography here. Therefore, visitors are encouraged to keep their camera handy for photo opportunities with the friendly local craftsmen amidst their exotic landscape.
Another popular tourist attraction, and local landmark is the Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan Mosque. Considered by many as one of the most imposing religious and national landmarks in Abu Dhabi to date. It is also arguably one of the most important architectural treasures of the contemporary UAE society - and one of the most beautiful in the world - initiated no less by the late president HH Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, (who is fondly thought of as the father of UAE.)
The Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan Mosque, popularly called Grand Mosque by local residents, is seen as a “globally unifying” landmark from its conception to completion, bringing together designers, features, materials and suppliers from nearly every corner of the globe: Italy, Germany, Morocco, India, Turkey, Iran, China, Greece and the UAE. Natural materials were chosen for its design and construction, which include marble, stone, gold, semi-precious stones, crystals and ceramics.
Also popular as a tourist destination is the Hili archaeological site. Situated within a public garden, it is accessible from the Dubai Road, some 10 kilometres outside Al Ain.
Visitors, including those with children, can enjoy the landscaped public garden whilst having a picnic especially during the cooler months. This public garden features an important site where remnants of a Bronze Age settlement was excavated and restored.
This site yielded a tomb containing the remains of well over 200 individuals as well as valuable artefacts including ceramic and soft-stone vessels believed to be imported from Iran or Baluchistan that are now displayed at the Al Ain Museum. Hili is near Fossil Valley, an area which was covered by sea many thousand years ago, and hence, serves as a mini-reservoir of countless fossils.
Archaeological surveys over the past few decades have been conducted at a number of sites including Rumeilah, a district of Al Ain. Rumeilah yielded what is believed to be the first Iron Age settlement in the emirate where a series of mud brick buildings, some still with roofs intact, has been discovered. The settlement, possibly occupied between 1000 and 300 BC, contained grinding stones, pottery, metal tools and some bronze weaponry.
Other archaeological sites are located in Qattarah (Al Ain), Mantiqa Al-Sirra (Abu Dhabi interior) and Ayn Al Fayda (Al Ain), to name a few. Plans are afoot to open at least one of these sites to the public in future.

Founded in the early 20th Century, Hurghada has been on a continuous growth spiral, so much so that Hurghada is now the leading resort destination along the Red Sea.
Presently, this former fisherman’s village hosts 40 000 inhabitants. Divided into three main parts, namely: El Dahar (the old district, downtown); Sekalla (the modern district) and El Korra Road (the most modern district), Hurghada has plenty to offer its visitors and residents. For example: Sekalla is where one would find relatively modest Hotel quarters, whereas El Dahar is where one would find the town’s largest bazaar, post office and bus station.
Property markets indicate that it is possible to fetch a luxury beachfront studio apartment in Hurghada for as little as £15 000, while a fully furnished turn-key apartment will have you looking at £20 000.

Many of Hurghada’s beach resorts are all-inclusive, self-contained entities that satisfy the visitor’s every need and desire. Amenities include discos, bars, playgrounds, swimming pools and small theatres.
Hurghada has its own international airport that receives many charter flights every day. Hurghada is well connected to Cairo and Luxor by bus. There are also ferries to and from the Sinai Peninsula.
Minibuses seat up to a dozen people, and are probably the cheapest means of intra-city travel.
Another option is car rental. Several international rental companies are represented in Hurghada.
Within Hurghada, public transport is good. Collective service taxis operate on a wide variety of routes. They are quicker than buses, and can depart (and arrive) at any given time.
Prices are on the increase, daily – as new developments are re-priced, on average, every quarter. The amounts of these quarterly-increases vary according to the exact locality of the development and the apartment position within the complex, but a ten per cent increase is the average quarter-hike for the best located development on the market.
Hurghada is known for its spectacular landscape, rich in canyons and mountains. The desert safari is a wonderful means of experiencing this colourful terrain. Several operators in Hurghada arrange such safaris, most of which last between 1 and 5 days. Participants may select from camels, horses, quads and 4x4 vehicles.
Hurghada Aquarium and Museum boasts a wide selection of Red Sea plants and animals. It is open from 8am to 8pm.
Remaining a popular holiday destination for residents of Cairo, the Delta and Upper Egypt, as well as gaining popularity as a package holiday destination for many European tourists (i.e. Russians, Germans, etc), Hurghada is on the rise in leaps and bounds.
Giftun Island provides a superb day outing for the whole family. Besides excellent snorkeling, one has the opportunity to view the Red Sea underworld from a submarine. The island is well populated with shops and boutiques, and there are also some interesting historical sites such as the Roman porphyry quarry remains.
El Gouna lies 20 km to the north of Hurghada. A purpose built leisure resort, it boasts a 10 km stretch of beachfront. Its water activity opportunities are excellent, and include facilities for water skiing, parasailing, snorkeling and windsurfing. For those who favour land-based activity, the 18-hole USPGA Golf Course offers a world-class game.
Safaga is slightly south of Hurghada. This port town comprises several tourist villages specializing in diving holidays, and is complete with outstanding hotels and seafood restaurants. The town’s clean sandy beaches and stiff sea breezes make it an ideal location for windsurfing.
Other nearby islands is Shaab el-Erg, Shaab Abu Ramada, Abu Minquar, Careless Reef and Shadwan Island. All offer excellent swimming and diving conditions.
Sharm El Naga is a village located 40 km south of Hurghada. Its beach boasts the most beautiful reef cliff in the region.

Mountain and beach comb in Minangkabau
I'm always interested to visit the West Sumatra. I wish this new year-end achieve ago. Visit this experience so that is not forgotten.
For this special visit, we began to plan trips and book tickets for the following hotels far day. Tend to be careful, remember this trip and I farthermost my child is still a five-year, Naila.
Route-trip route that we shall always consider the plan's ability and interest Naila. We landed at Minangkabau International Airport on Friday afternoon. At the airport we picked up a car rental driver, Pak Edi. With the car, we go directly to the Bukittinggi.
During the trip, I find many things interesting. In fact, the names of the districts in West Sumatra much use numbers. Only a "4 Koto Aur cross", "7 Koto Sarik River", and the most unique regions of origin grandfather is my husband, District "2 x 11 Six Lingkung."
Joke with my husband to give reasons, to encourage the trade of blood always count Minang. Approximately fifteen minutes after Sicincin scenery changed dramatically. Of rice fields and tended the garden flat, suddenly the hills and forests. In fact we are not far from the Anai Valley is famous.
Lembah Anai waterfall located on the left side of the road that cut across Bukit Barisan. While the right of Batang Anai river flows berbatu a large-stone, very beautiful.
Padangpanjang between Bukittinggi and there are some interesting places to visit. In Padangpanjang have Sate Padang Mak Syukur also opened a branch in Jakarta. Then the seller bika cake (a kind of pancake, from rice flour and coconut) in New nagari Koto.
Not far from there there is a crossing to the famous Pandai Sikek with gold thread and songkets Sulam hands. But due to limited time to see Lake Maninjau before dark, had to these places I miss.
Nagari in Padang Luar, Pak Edi prescind Maninjau toward the car. Only way to fit two cars. In District Matur crossing there, straight through the morning and Embun curve Maninjau to 44, while the path to the right that we take, the Puncak Lawang. This path is smaller, but already teraspal.
The Puncak Lawang located near sugar cane plantations and sugar making industries. I make this quite odd because in Java, sugar cane plantations are usually located in the lowland. Puncak Lawang is the highest peak of the hills in the eastern edge of Lake Maninjau. From a height of 900 meters above sea level (dpl), often held sporting event for the Forum at the Rizal Beach landed on the shores of Lake nun.
Views to the Lake Maninjau a wide range below there is very clear and clean. Among the hills in the west appear to tout offshore north Pariaman. From Puncak Lawang, we go directly to Bukittinggi. Time is not allowing us to get off the edge Maninjau meander through the famous 44.
Up to the canyon's Chips Sanjai
Second day, we shop in the city of Bukittinggi is the first goal. Market in the near Jam Gadang, which is the incaran my hands Sulam is typical for Bukittinggi by-by, crochet and craft, in the form of a table and table cloth pillowcase.

Enjoy the Traditional Culture Village
People know as the island of Bali with the exotic beauty of nature and art and culture of extremes. No wonder if many of us find the unique island of a million in the shrine is already famous all over the world.
During this time people know Bali as marine and coastal tourism, but the fact is there is one place that still preserve the Balinese culture from generation to generation since the times of the ancestors. Many things that we can learn that loaded with traditional values this. Bangli is the only district in Bali does not have a tour of the beach.
However, a number of tourist objects that are not less good in this place. One Penglipuran Traditional Village which is located in Jalan Raya-Kintamani Bangli, Bangli, or 45 kilometers from Denpasar City.
Penglipuran have two of the pangeling basically eling the word means' remember '. While, ostensibly means' ancestral land '. So penglipuran means' land because the ancestors'. Or the word can also refer penglipur as a consolation.
Desa Adat Penglipuran broad reach 112 hectares, consists of 37 hectares of bamboo forest that local people used to craft the system tebang select, field of 49 hectares, for housing and population of 12 hectares.
The village is very clean and the air is very cool. Topographic slope villages from north to south. Channel regulation parks and clean water make this village never flood. Main street village but did not use asphalt from the stone-rock mountain with a modified or paving stones conblock.
Villages arranged neatly so that the two forms have kaveling the front of the same material made from ground to the roof and walls using bamboo. Enough to endure it berlama-long stay in this place.
The uniqueness of the other village this is the same broad kaveling have between 8 and 11 are. Land is a heritage of ancestors divided the east and west respectively 38 kaveling. The life of society is also heterogeneous, with some working as farmers, civil servants, laborers, and crafter.
Spatial village no less interesting that the macro divided into three parts called the tri mandala. Spatial concept in Hindu religion, its meaning is a three-part or three rooms that have three or function of different purity.
Orientasinya physical condition of the north south (in Bali means Kaja Klod) more simple or more high-low (Ulu teben). From that concept, then the most northern village in a place that is holy Pura Bale Agung (upgrading) which is the main concept of the mandala is located in the north direction as a Hindu nation. Then the concept of the second mandala, called medium mandala.
This is a place in the area of settlement divided into two series, namely the west and east. While the third is the place where the stigma mandala least that is the location that is used for graves or people call Bali as Setra. Layout such as this was also applied in each village the local people's house.
Each kaveling home residents, the concept of each house built angkul-angkul or the gate is one of the entrance at once seen as the building concierge home front.
When holy day, made offerings at this place. No wonder if the whole community in the village is the same, namely the front of the sanggah or mrajan as the main theater of the family members used to worship. Then the whole house facing east as the sunrise.
In every building there is a house of empty space called a page (natah) as a place to gather members located in the middle (average). While the stigma mandala is usually filled with a toilet, the laundry, or facilities, or economic activities such as stalls, cattle pens, and so forth.
"Every nation that has a Hindu home usually berarsitektur Bali following the layout like this. As each room of the gods who reside there," said Kelian Adat Village Penglipuran, Wayan Supat.
To maintain the ancestral heritage from generation to generation, the inheritance Supat hope this will still continue to run until the children and grandchildren soon.
"We as a generation of young people driving old and so will be like this. During the concept of preservation of tradition is still relevant during the period in human life," sebutnya.
In Hindu teachings have a concept of preserving the concept of village kalapatra. Kala means time, while the mean Patra. So is kalapatra situation will change in the place where and when the time. No wonder many tourists who are interested to come to a traditional village since 1993 began to promote local government as a tourism destination.
Unfortunately, this village does not provide a place of accommodation or stay home to accommodate the tourists to bertinggal longer in the village that is cool and healthy. Uniqueness of others, you will not find a trash can on the main road is the Village People Penglipuran.
This is because of the rules (awig-awig) to each citizen to sweep twice a day every morning and evening. Obligations that must be obeyed is a crop of grass in the park the road twice a month. If it is not obeyed, Rp10.000 fines will be applied.
Although dendanya be regarded not too large, so far there are no citizens who violate and more obedient to the rules are. This is because people ditanamkan cultural shame if it does not obey the rules and deserves to serve as the pilot area health tourism destination.
For the tourists who come, the local government allowed to enter with the ticket price is very cheap and affordable. Mature enough to pay Rp2.500, while for large anakanak Rp1.500.Sebagian that foreign tourists are coming to do with the coolness of a society and teraturnya Village People Penglipuran.
