Harbour Bridge, Australia


harbour bridge sydney australian tourist spot coathanger
Harbour Bridge, Australia
Harbour Bridge is a well known landmark of Sydney, Australia. The architecture made is truly amazing. Because of its arch-based design, the locals usually say it "Coathanger". It was  completed in year 1932 after around 6 years of construction. It carries 8 road lanes, 2 rail tracks, 1 foot way, 1 cycle way. It is world's largest (but not the longest one) steel arch bridge.

So if you are daring enough, you must climb the bridge to get to the top of the structure. Though it may look daunting at first but the staff is really experienced and make each person calm and courage them. This is not for acrophobics. You can also do Pylon climbing, there are lots of stairs to climb so it is not made for faint hearted. After climbing up you will see some great view of the Opera house from the top. You can click some beautiful pics to capture that moment and make it memorable for the rest of your life.

Late September to early December and late February to April. On these times, the weather is not so warm and is comfortable for visitors.

Akshardham Temple, Delhi (India)


swaminarayana akshardham temple a hindu temple temple in delhi
Akshardham Temple, Delhi (India)
Swaminarayana Akshardham Temple is a Hindu temple commonly known as Akshardham temple. It is situated in the capital of India i.e. Delhi. I have visited many times there and the area in which it is been made is massive including temples, boat rides, Giant screen film, lawns, foundations etc. It is impeccable and if you are in Delhi then it is a must visit place because there you got to know many things about Hindu culture. You have to deposit your shoes, bags, mobile phones or any other electronic device before entering the temple because of security issues. Smoking & Alcohol, Pets, Cameras, Mobile Phones, Food is strictly prohibited. You can get food inside the premises.

When i last visited there i met a girl of Moldova (European country), she was strolling alone . Usually tourists comes in a group but she was alone so i started conversation with her because i could tell her more about that place and also she will not feel alone & boring. I was along with my 2 friends. I asked her from how long you have been here, she said from last 1 month. She was doing some kind of course here.
So i started to tell her about the temple and about India. I asked what good and bad experiences you got here, she said people like you are really helpful :) and the city is beautiful. Then i asked what about bad experiences, she said some taxi drivers charges higher rates to foreigners which is not cool but apart from it everything is good. I said i know they charge a bit higher to foreigners but their main source of Income is Tourism so they used to make some money from it. As Indian rupee is not that strong comparing to Euro, that's why it doesn't seems that much higher price for you but for them it could make them happy. She agreed to my point at last. :)
  • Best Time to visit :
I would suggest you to visit there in Winter season i.e from November-March and not to forget your warm clothes. In summer, the temperature rises upto more than 450C.
Timings : 9:30 am-6:30 pm (Monday closed)
  • Entry Fee :

Revolving restaurant in TV tower restaurant in berlin germany
The revolving restaurant is just few meters above the visitor Platform. It is around 210 meters above from the ground. The specialty of that restaurant is that it revolves around after 30 minutes. Before it was one hour, but in 1990's the revolving speed gets doubled.

Iguazu Falls, Argentina


Iguazu Falls Argentina waterfalls most visited place

Iguazu Falls are the waterfalls of river Iguazu. It is situated in the border of Argentina & Paraná (state of Brazil). Around 1900 meters of the Iguazu waterfall is in Argentine side and around 800 meters is in Brazilian side. Its name is been derived from Guarani or tupi words which means "Water". It is undoubtedly the most visited place in Argentina. It is four times wider than the width of Niagra Falls.

There is a myth about this waterfall. A legend said that a snake named "Boi" used to live there in the river. To make him calm or to calm its brutality, the people of ancient times sacrified a woman every year as an offering. One day a brave guy saved a woman from that cruel snake and snake got so angered that it bent its body and split the river seperating the man & woman.

There are more than 250 falls in the area. There are two basic paths i.e. upper path & lower path. In the upper path, you can walk over a bridge and take a scenic view of the wall but in the lower path, you can go to the base of fall which is friggin adventurous. I would suggest you to take lower path if you are daring enough.

You can also experience wild adventure highly ranging from mammals, reptiles, insects, fish etc. You can take a boat ride as well to experience it better.
  • Best Time to visit :
Best time would be March, April, August, September.

Lake is surrounded by Mountains and New Zealand is all famous for Hiking, trekking. Wellington is its capital. Peoples there are living happily and enjoying their life at the fullest.

The country is not that large in size as it is around 0.08 % of the size of India. India is really big :D.  If someone would ask me personally that the one place in world where you would love to go or wants to go truly by your heart then i would surely say New Zealand as i'm personally really fond of this country. The country is small, its population is far less as compared to India but really it is truly amazing.

Churdhar temple, Himanchal Pradesh (India)


Churdhar Temple : A trekking Place

Churdhar temple, Himanchal Pradesh
Churdhar Temple is in Himanchal Pradesh, India. I was there when i was in University along with 7 more friends. We were in a class attending lecture and in between class one of my friend started searching Places on phone where we could go on a weekend. So after spending time of 2 lectures we finally found a place where none of us been before. :D

It was Churdhar trekking Place. It was a 15km trek one sided and we started trekking from Nohradhar. Out of 8 friends, some were really good trekker, some were average and also few were lazy arse. :D

We started trekking in the morning at around 11am . We were tired by the travelling and we haven't asleep whole night but still we planned to start trekking . So we move on from Nohradhar and after around 6-7 kms we saw snow fallen on our way (not much) so we started to think the temperature on the peak which is almost 13000ft high.

We didn't had our jackets, caps and all (what we had was a pair of shirts and jeans). At around 5pm we reached the top by trek around 12 kms after what we can't think of going further as there was snow blanket on the whole field and there was no way of going further. But still we tried and we started walk on the snow blanket. The way was like too slippery and at that time if anyone could get dis balanced then he would have fallen from the cliff and there was nothing to grip on. After giving so much try, 6 of us denied to take risk and go further but 2 braverily does that and they went at the top by walking on the snow.
