The post TOP ATTRACTIONS AND THINGS YOU MUST DO IF YOU ARE IN PHUKET appeared first on Feet Beyond Roads.

1. MALDIVES COMPRISES OF ALMOST MORE THAN A THOUSAND SMALL
   ISLANDS:
   With an individual collection of 1190 islands extending across the Indian Ocean,
   Maldives consists of some islands so small that they are barely noticeable on the
   google map while others are barely more than a strip of sand protruding out of water with not more than one resort or hotel on them. The island of Male is the most populous island in Maldives.
2. SOME MALDIVE ISLANDS ARE MAN- MADE:
   Although it is believed that most Maldive islands are formed by Volcanoes, some
   islands are man made. For example, the island nearest to the main airport,
   Hulhumale Island, is an artificial island made in 2004 by dumping heaps of concrete and sand to form a foundation and now looks like a full- fledged town.
3. THE BIOLUMINESCENT BEACHES OF MALDIVES:
   Stumbling across a bioluminescent stretch of sea is one of the rarest treats and the most blissful experience that Maldives renders. Seeing bioluminescent phytoplankton light up the oceans and make them reliably glow is rather exciting and can be spotted in the Dusit Thani Maldives in Baa Atoll where the resort’s beach comes alive from the light at night, emitting a starry sight amidst the dark waves.
4. WITH A 100 PERCENT ISLAMIC POPULATION, THERE ARE CUSTOMS TO BE
   CONSIDERED:
   Although it is unlikely for foreign travellers to witness infringements upon vacationing freedom, one must know that Maldives is the only other country in the world with a 100 percent muslim population. And to avoid any hassle, it is well suited to leave alcohol, pork based products, tobacco products without a health warning and any religious book like The Bible behind at home. Other than that, public display of affection, bathing suits, and alcohol drinking in the city is strictly prohibited. Even though resorts in the Maldives have their own vacation – friendly rules, the hotel strictly abide by these conventional islamic rules which also includes proper modest dressing for women and barrs homosexuality. So, if you are a budget traveller, you most likely have to abide by these cultural prohibitions in the populous regions of the Maldives.

5. THE BEST TIME TO VISIT MALDIVES:
   November to April is the ideal time for you to plan your trip to Maldives, even though
   temperatures remain stable all year round. So to get your fair share of the tropical
   sun, you must visit before the southwest monsoon roughly coincides, making the
   weather rather dry and windy.

Standing tall in all its glittering glory, this temple is adorned with a man- made lake which is brimming with fishes. Apart from the magnificence of the Golden Temple, it houses the largest running community kitchen in the world, popularly known as Guru ka Langar which is open to people from all castes, colour, creed, gender and religion. Free meals are served to thousands of people everyday in the community hall of the Gurdwara.

The Gurdwara has entry gates open to all sides denoting the virtue of Sikhism which
preaches that everyone entering the premises of the Golden Temple will be treated with equal respect without any basis of discrimination for anyone and everyone. The Langar of the Golden Temple is mostly run and serviced by volunteers by their own free will to be a part of the Sewa. They help in preparing for the meals by chopping vegetables, even cook the meals ranging from rotis to desserts and sometimes even serve the entire crowd eating at the Langar. They keep the kitchen up and running for 24 hours of the day so that anyone who comes to the Langar does not have to go back empty stomach. Here, on normal days, almost 50000 to 60000 eat at the Langar and the numbers go up to 100000 during religious gatherings. Although most meals are handmade, Gurdwara has a roti making machine with the ability to make 25000 rotis per hour to feed passers by, pilgrims and visitors. The astounding sizes of the vessels used to cook the meals holds quintals of quantities, all of which is procured from a steady flow of donations for the Golden Temple. It has 2 community halls where people have to sit on the floor and wait for the Langar to be served.

After the volunteers finish serving the food, a clarion call of ‘Jo bole so nihal’ is yelled, to
which the crowd yells back ‘Sat Sri Akal’. You can eat your heart out in the Langar of the
Golden Temple, for extra rotis or accompaniments all you have to do is raise your hand in gratitude while the volunteers come and refill your place with the scrumptious meals of the Langar.

My travel journey to each country gave me a different experience, from its culture to its food, everything you see is different from one place to another. Here is a glimpse to all my world tour destinations

Singapore

Even though Singapore is one of the most expensive cities in the world, it has also earned other accolades for being the best-planned city, the cleanest city and most possibly the most entertaining city.

With a plethora of places to go and things to do, Lion city houses the world’s first safari park for nocturnal animals, the largest rooftop infinity pool, age-old ancient temples, impressive architecture, extraordinary gardens, stunning world-class performance venues, shopping streets and undoubtedly a delectable spread of different cuisines.

With a fascinating melding between the historic and the modern, this intriguing city will leave you in awe making this my World tour checklist spot 1 

Malaysia

If you are visiting Singapore, then you must visit Malaysia too. 

The world’s tallest twin structures, the Petronas Twin Towers, are LOCATED IN THE HEART OF THE CITY KUALA LUMPUR, majestic by day and dazzling at night. Cesar Pelli & Associates designed the 88-story buildings, which are Malaysia’s proudest icon and architectural wonder, and are lined with an endless shopping and touring experience.

Twin Towers of Petronas Standing 452 metres tall, it held the world-record title until 2004, when Taipei 101, measuring 508 metres tall, was built. The Burj Khalifa in Dubai (opened in 2010) is still the world’s tallest building. 

Maldives

Maldives is nothing short of a paradise.  The sparkling white sandy beaches, the pristine blue waters and luxury resorts make it a haven for travellers across the world. From adventure water sports to having a relaxing, laid back stay, Maldives offers an assortment of experiences to everyone.

The deep blue waters and beautiful beaches had been on my bucket list too. On my birthday, I decided to a trip to the Maldives with my childhood friends. We stayed at the beautiful Meeru Island Resort & Spa. This resort offers a number of tourist activities that includes water sports & excursions. This makes this place a great destination to add to your world tour checklist.

Dubai

Dubai attracts visitors similarly like light attracts beetles. It is best to visit Dubai during the winter months from November to April as the summer heat is usually unbearable and the months of January and February experience strong traffic literally everywhere due to the Dubai Shopping Festival.

But while you are in Dubai, you must take your own sweet time to visit the ravishing Burj Khalifa and explore it to the fullest, making it a must-visit place for your world tour 

Amsterdam

Amsterdam is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. The historic buildings, beautiful museums, canals and shopping districts draws visitors from all age groups, across the world. After a thorough research on Netherlands, I booked my tickets and packed my bags to the Venice of the North, Amsterdam!

Italy

During the beautiful stay in Italy for 4 Months and my visits to the most magnificent places. Here’s a list of places specially curated to be visited- Milan, Lake Como, Venice, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Cinque Terre, Rome

Dont miss out on these amazing places during your world trip checklist visit

Spain

what’s Seville, the southern Spanish capital is famous for, of course it’s their historic churches and palaces, Moorish buildings, flamenco dancing, and more. If you’re interested in tapas or history, you cannot feel bored in this Andalusian city.

Seville is an amazing artistic, cultural, and financial capital of southern Spain. It’s a city full of architecture, history, and wonderful food. What else do you need for a perfect getaway in a wonderful city, I loved my visit to Seville, well who wouldn’t.

The city has some famous churches, winding streets, and great flamenco dancers. This is also a big university town and is extremely popular with people studying abroad. I love this city’s architecture and youthful vibe.

Budapest

From the prohibition speakeasies to the bathhouses turned bars of Ancient Greece, a tribute to the perceptiveness of mankind is the art of serving alcohol at the most unconventional spaces and this liquor- filled perceptiveness is demonstrated best in the contemporary city of Budapest, Hungary. 

Dilapidated pre-war buildings like banks, factories, warehouses or homes that were saved from heap scraps and turned into unique and extremely cool bars, now very famously known as the ‘Ruin Bars’ ,has taken over this city by a surge over the past 15 years and is a huge tourist attraction due to the generous pour of alcohol and to experience and witness the local histories of these bars.

Bhutan 

Bhutan is a charming little country located in south- Asia right in between India and China. The entire country is covered in pristine pine forests and dotted by picturesque Buddhist monasteries, temples, Dzong fortresses and mystical mountains. The rich Buddhist culture is evident in their serene way of life and alluring environment that still remains untouched by technology and globalisation. 

Every year for my birthday, I end up going on a trip to Bhutan. Last year for my birthday trip, I decided to travel to Bhutan from India and checked off one more destination on my world travel bucket list for ‘n’th time.

Sri Lanka

The beautiful tear drop shaped country of Sri Lanka is a favourite travel destination for Indians because of its sandy beaches, scenic landscapes, flavourful food, exotic wildlife and heritage structures.

Travellers come in for the never-ending beaches and fall in love with this infinite paradise that offers something for everyone in terms of fun, relaxation and adventure. I spent 7 blissful days holidaying in Sri Lanka, exploring Ella, a hill station and Mirissa, a beach town.

• The emerald green waters of the Cinique Islands have a visibility of as much as 80ft and is an ideal scuba diving spot in India with a large variety of flora and fauna. It is easily one of the best things to do but you will need a permission granted by the forest department to explore this uninhabited land so one can only imagine how majestic this place can be. 

• South Asia’s only volcanic Island, the Barren Island, is a sight to behold in its dormant form and is only inhabited by the toughest animals like the flying foxes. This Island offers a great deal of adventurous experiences and is a must on a trip to Andaman. 

• Havelock Island is ideal for sea walking for its calm and clear waters and is reserved for tourists who are not much open to the thrills and adventures of scuba diving.

• Unlike other beaches that are usually brimming with bustling crowds, vendors and litter, the Elephant Beach greets with peace and serenity . Although you could get a speed boat to get to the beach, a 2 km long jungle trek from a point just before Radha Nagar Beach can also be taken and is definitely recommended due to the obvious mesmerising scenic landscapes.

• The turtles go through a gestation period from the month of December to January which makes them roam past the beaches of Diglipur and is the main attraction of the Diglipur town. 

• If you are looking for a shopping site to take back souvenirs when on a trip to Andaman, Aberdeen Bazaar has got you covered with jewellery, paintings, sweets, wood carvings, Andaman t-shirts, etc., all locally made by the native artists and sold at dirt cheap rates.

1. BARA IMAMBARA : This is the top most historical place to visit when in Lucknow and dated back to 1784. Also known as Asafi Imambara, this renowned monument was built by one one of the famous Nawabs of Awadh and is an entire complex comprising a large mosque or the Asif Mosque, a labyrinth or the Bhul Bhulaiya and a stepwell with running water or the Shahi Baoli.

2. CHOTA IMAMBARA : This imposing historical monument was built by the 3rd Nawab of Awadh in 1838 and is also known as Imambara Hussainabad Mubarak. What was initially constructed as a congregation hall for the devotees of the Shia Community, was later converted to serve as a mausoleum for the Nawab and his mother. The beautifully ornamented interiors  of crystal lamps and chandeliers which live to hype the ‘Palace of Lights’,  will leave you awestruck. 

3. BRITISH RESIDENCY : Built in the last quarter of the 18th century, this residency complex was once a residential house for the British Resident General and served as a safe haven to over 3000 British residents during the rebellion of 1857. As the residency is in ruins, it is now a protected monument under the Archeological survey of India. 

4. RUMI DARWAZA : This monument will help you witness the true grandeur of Awadhi Style. Rumi Darwaza imposes itself as a gateway between Bara Imambara and Chhota Imambara. Generally used as the logo of Lucknow City, this monument was built to be 60 feet tall in 1784  and is often referred to as the Turkish Gate as it is modeled after the Sublime Porte in Istanbul. 

5. CHATTAR MANZIL : What is now a must visit tourist place in Lucknow, was once the residential palace for Awadhi Rulers and their wives. Famed as the Umbrella Palace, this umbrella shaped domed structure displays elements from different styles of architecture, the European Style being of utmost significance. It’s intricate architectural beauty leaves its visitors in complete awe.
