How I spent one day in Venice
Most of my friends who had been to Italy would surely recommend Venice as a must-visit city in Italy. A city that is known as a romantic place for couples, a city that is surrounded by sea and canals, no road for vehicles, only walkways for pedestrians and bridges to cross. We reached Venice by high-speed train from Milan. The journey was about 2 hours and 25 minutes. The train ride was comfortable and fast. I bought the train tickets a few months ago before my trip and it was cheap (more than 50% discount on the original price). So if you plan to travel in Italy by high-speed train,…

TOP things to do in Valencia
Valencia, the third largest city in Spain, has a mix of old and modern buildings, certainly has its charm. Besides the architecture, it is where the famous Spanish food Paella originally from.

One day in Seville
What to do in Seville for a day trip from Madrid? The following was tried and tested in late November 2015. All the places we went were within walking distance. Took a Renfe train from Madrid Atocha train station to Seville Santa Justa station. The train ride was about 2 hours and 30 minutes. We took an early train so that we would have time to cover more places in Seville in one day. Casa de Pilatos Our first stop was to see Casa de Pilatos. It took us about 15 minutes walk from the train station to this place. This 15th-century mansion was gorgeous. This amazing mansion had a…

A Day Trip To Home Of Swiftlets, Yong Peng Johor Malaysia
