AROUND THE WORLD IN A DAY - SHENZHEN

Image
The Glass Pyramid of Paris Louvre Museum rise in the distance. Our visit to the Window of the World was time - limited as we are only given an hour to explore this 48 hectare theme park....! But it was a great experience, though. The entire park is divided into 8 major parts: Square of the World, International Street, Region of Asia, Europe Region, African Region, American Region, Oceana Region and the Garden of World Sculptures. We marvelled at incredibly 10 percent only of its 130 miniatures of world's famous landmarks squeezed in one place here in Guangdong Shenzhen, China. C'mon, join us to explore the world. Hurry! Time is ticking. It's December chill clouding the whole park and so a giant red Christmas tree visibly stand around the corner. A Splendid Chinese Gate. The Gate of Temple of Horus. Enjoyed the picturesque scenery of classic Myanmar Temple and the Angkor Wat of Cambodia. Didn't missed the shining Taj Mahal. Mt. Fuji Carried us ba...

Today we walked down to Victoria Harbour, only 5 minutes from our hotel! And we walked down the Avenue of Stars, a kind of a Hollywood type boardwalk where a ton of Hong Kong stars make hand imprints in the cement next to their names. Look at the picture below, can you guess the name of the superstar in the picture? :D Celebrity Handprints Not only the handprints but also a statue. I got a couple of pictures next to it. View of Victoria Harbour and its Hollywood Statues Movie Memorabilia A number of other attractions exist including the Museum of Art, Cultural Centre, Space Museum, Clock Tower and Bruce Lee statue near the Salisbury Garden. Too bad our time for sightseeing was limited due to the fact that we woke up late. :( Catching a quick glimpse of the place then we flew into Sheung W...

Magical Journey at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort

Finally reached the main entrance to Disneyland Resort! so excited! Dreams come true maybe for most of the visitors in Disney including me. Since childhood I just watched Mickey and Minnie and other Disney characters in television but at this time as if I have escaped from the real world and make my dreams come true. Can't resist to touch Mickey for the first time...hehehe :D The views are totally amazing and made us take more than a 100 pictures... While we are busy taking pictures, my mom found herself sitting pretty on one of the bench nearby the entrance. She's so tired I guess, after our long journey from Tsim Sha Tsui to Central. But despite of that, excitement and joy was clearly obvious on her face. Near to the main entrance was the big whale fountain with Mickey surfing above it. The main gate where you can buy your Disney ticket. It was not high season when we went there but the crowds is inevitable sometimes. We're blessed because we ...
