1) Pulau Langkawi

ASSALAMUALAIKUM AND SALAM SEJAHTERA...

For the first entry on 15 destination..
I would like to choose Pulau Langkawi..
I prefer to go there because Pulau Langkawi is in Malaysia
 and I visited it for a long time ago..
when I was 17 years old which I was waiting for SPM result..
I go with my family and I found many interesting places
and also know the history that happen in Pulau Langkawi for the past.

Here, we start with the map of Pulau Langkawi..
where it is located ?


Langkawi island is an archipelago of 104 islands lying in the north western coast of Peninsular Malaysia. The exact location of these tropical islands is at the site where the Straits of Malacca meets the waters of the Andaman Seas.

The largest of these islands is called Langkawi Island and is bigger than the Penang Island.The other islands in this group are Island of Pregnant Maiden (Pulau Dayang Bunting), Lion Island (Pulau Singa Besar) and Beras Basah Island.The smallest of these islands are atolls roughly the size of an ordinary house!

Langkawi is coined from the Malay words Lang and Kawi. Lang is a brown eagle and Kawi is a local manganese stone.The ancient fishermen must have seen eagles flying clutching the manganese stones! A giant monument of a brown eagle clutching the manganese stone greets all visitors to Langkawi near the Kuah Jetty.




The main tourist attractions of Langkawi Island is its virgin white sandy beaches.The beaches have very gentle continental slope and the water is crystal clear.



This island is unique in the sense that it has so many legendsand myths associated with it.Langkawi Island is therefore also called Pulau Lagenda or Legendary Island.

The most talked about legend is that of Mahsuri who is said to have laid a curse on this island for seven generations.Luckily the period of this curse is over now and Langkawi Island is fast becoming an internationally recognised tourist destination. 





The government of Malaysia has declared the entire Langkawi Island as a duty free zone. Hence this island is also termed Duty Free Island.All goods sold in this island are exempted from government tax.Therefore this Legendary Island is a haven for the shoppers.You only need to stay in Langkawi for a minimum of 48 hours to take back home a reasonable amount of tax free goods.

2) The Big Island, Hawaii

ASSALAMUALAIKUM AND SALAM SEJAHTERA...


I found the Big Island to be very welcoming. It made me feel curious, interested, 
and more open to new ideas than I normally am. 


The Island of Hawaii, also called the Big Island or Hawaii Island is a volcanic island (the eastern-most and southern-most in the Hawaiian islands chain) in the North Pacific Ocean.
 With an area of 4,028 square miles (10,430 km2), it is larger than all of the other Hawaiian Islands combined and is the largest island in the United States. The Island of Hawaii is administered as the County of Hawaii within the state of HawaiiThe county seat is HiloIn modern times, Hawaii is known as the "Big Island" to reduce confusion between Hawaii Island and the state.



 The Big Island is often called the Orchid Isle for its heavy blankets of fragrant blossoms, but its given its official name to avoid confusion with the other islands of KauaiMaui and Oahu. In the past, the name Hawaii was used to describe both the chain of islands and the Big Island of Hawaii itself. The Big Island Hawaii is twice as large as the other islands combined and with two volcanoes still active, one which is the most volatile in the world, the island continues growing. Mauna Kea and Kohala are Big Island's extinct volcanoes while Hualalai is considered dormant. The volcanoes are an integral part of Hawaii and create fascinating landscapes and backdrops that attract thousands each year.

The Big Island Hawaii is also well known for its fun events and holidays. When in the area on a Big Island vacation don't miss any current events or you'll miss a chance to experience the Aloha spirit at its finest. In April Big Island activities include attending the Merrie Monarch Hula Festival in Hilo. With total emphasis on Hawaiian history and culture, the week-long festival hosts demonstrations, craft fairs, art exhibits, exciting performances, a large parade and a three-day hula competition! Each year in Kona, Big Island Hawaii hosts the Ironman Triathlon World Championships which kicks off in October. Coffee lovers flock to the fun Kona Coffee Festival each year in November to taste world renowned Kona coffee.






An important aspect to know is the Big Island of Hawaii is not easily driven around. The loop encompasses more than 200 miles and stopping to see attractions makes the trip much longer. Visitors can make an adventure of it easily beginning with exploring the Kohala and Kona areas while staying at one of the Big Island resorts or hotels. Hit the north coast next and drive around stopping in Hilo for an overnight stay or two. Leaving Hilo, the next obvious stop is Volcanoes National Park. If there's time, consider taking a full day or two to explore the fascinating and uniquely beautiful and dramatic terrain. Swing around to the southern coast, stopping as you wish on your way back to Kohala or Kona.










To really see the island, a drive around is the best way. There are plenty of stops for enjoying Big Island activities like golfing, surfing and swimming. If the island journey sounds like an exhaustive journey, stick to the west Kona Kohala Coast and amp up your Big Island of Hawaii trip by opting for various tours in the area like a Circle Island Tour. Take in a Big Island luau, relax on a private lanai at sunset and simply let go of it all as you soak up all that the Big Island has to give.

3) Cameron Higland

ASSALAMUALAIKUM AND SALAM SEJAHTERA

For the third destination I also choose
the local one.
why I prefer to go to the Cameron Highland, Pahang ?
because of my dreams to go there.
I love to see the beautiful nature and peaceful place.

The more I interested to go to the Cameron Highland when
i watched the drama "Vanilla Coklat"
Zara and Amir are very sweet couple..




Strawberry Park Resort was specially built to be a perfect hideaway for those on a holiday or on business. The resort is set atop a 7-acre hill on a plateau over 5,000 feet above sea level in Cameron Highlands.

It comprises six block of studios and apartments furnished and equipped in a manner to help make your stay an extraordinary experience. These buildings feature neo-Tudor architecture, and have been designed to match the calming, green surrounding.




Even the balconies are planted with bougainvillaeas whose crimson flowers 
welcome you warmly at any time of the year.
In almost any direction you look, there is a mass of soothing green sometimes
 punctuated by hints of mist. Silence pervades. You will also enjoy the sort of service you
 do not often find today, fine food of various cuisine, and a wide range of excellent facilities for many types of social and recreational activities. Of course, there are also special 

activities lined up for those who want to go much closer to nature. 



There are many things to see and do in Cameron Highlands, Malaysia's largest highland resort. Walks through lovely little villages, visits to the butterfly, strawberry, honey bee farms and sprawling tea plantations or meals at the delightful Tudor-styled country inns, are all pleasurable and relaxing activities to be experienced here. You can't beat the weather up here. A few days out of the sweltering lowland heat will surely recharge your batteries.

One other popular activity in Cameron Highlands, actually more of a tradition, is to have tea and scones. This very English tradition dates back to the days when English colonial officers used this hilly location as a cool getaway from the heat of the lowlands. Bird-watching and trekking are also popular activities here.

Situated 1,500 metres above sea level, Cameron Highlands comprises a series of little 
townships that include Ringlet, Tanah Rata, Brinchang, Tringkap, Kuala Terla and Kampung Raja.
 What's more, it's easy to get to. Cameron Highlands lies less than an hour off the main 
North-South Highway, and is a pleasant, easy 3.5-hour drive from Kuala Lumpur.







Cameron Highlands in Pahang is one of Malaysia's most popular tourist destinations, 
 a collection of peaceful townships perched 1500 meters high on a nest of serene
 mountains. Cooling resorts, tea plantations and strawberry farms sprawl lazily across
 lush valleys and meandering hillslopes, the perfect setting for a relaxing holiday.
 The sea of tranquility, pleasant landscapes and cold climate impart a special experience
 upon the multitudes of visitors each year. Meanwhile, a different world lies hidden
 away among the natural surroundings - a rainforest ecosystem rich
 with the wonders of nature, long held with fascination by researchers
 and naturalists across the world.











4) Tirol, Austria

ASSALAMUALAIKUM AND SALAM SEJAHTERA..





Tirol is a federal state of Austria and located in the Western part of the country between Italy and the Southern part of Germany. 

After the defeat of Austria in the first world war, Tirol was divided into two pieces. The Northern and the Eastern part of Tirol stayed in Austria, and the Southern part was taken by Italy as victory trophy. 



The scenery of Tirol is strongly influenced by Alpine mountains. The highest moutains of Tirol are the Ortler (3905 m), Königspitze (king's top) in Southern Tirol, the Grossglockner (3798 m) in Eastern Tirol and the Wildspitze (wild top) in den Ötztaler Alps in Northern Tirol.

The area of Tirol is colonized since more than 10.000 years. The first culture in Tirol was the mining culture. The oldest metallurgical plant was found in Brixlegg and dates from the year 4.000 BC. The exploitation was dominated by copper. 







The time before the Roman Empire was called "La-Tene". In that period the inhabitants of Tirol consists of people who were expelled by Celtic tribes from their original settlements. Most of those expelled people were Illyric by origin. In the year 15 BC the first Roman soldiers came and Tirol was taken by the Roman Empire. Drusus and Tiberius were the names of the two responsible Roman generals who realized the successful campaign.







In the period of the late antiquity (since 476) Tirol belonged to the Italian empire of the Eastern Gothics. The Italian empire broke down in 500, and Bavarians were coming from the North to settle in Tirol.

Since that time Tirol was a part of the duchy Bayern. In 1363 Tirol became a part of Austria when the mighty lady "Margarethe von Tirol" gave her land as a valuable present to Rudolf IV of Habsburg. I have no idea about the reason of such a generous gift. In that time Tirol has a very high strategic importance for the Habsburg dynasty. 















5) Jeju-Do

ASSALAMUALAIKUM AND SALAM SEJAHTERA...



Jeju-do (transliterated Korean for Jeju Province, short form of Jeju Special Autonomous Province or Cheju Island) is one of the special autonomous province of South Korea, situated on and coterminous with the country's largest island. Jeju-do lies in the Korea Strait, southwest of Jeollanam-do Province, of which it was a part before it became a separate province in 1946. Its capital is the city of Jeju.

JeJuDo Island is South Korea's largest island and lies south of the peninsula. 
Many tourists visit theCheonjeyeon andCheonjiyeon waterfalls,Halla Mountain, 
and theHyeojbe cave. You can also enjoy playing golf, horse riding, hunting, 
fishing, and mountain climbing. Numerous festivals are held at the island throughout
 the year, and the showings are spectacular.

 is owned and managed by the Hong Kong International Theme Parks

The park opened to visitors on 12 September 2005. Disney attempted to avoid problems of cultural backlash by attempting to incorporate Chinese culture, customs, and traditions when designing and building the resort, including adherence to the rules of Feng Shui

For instance, a bend was put in a walkway near the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort
 entrance so good "qi" (chi) energy wouldn't flow into the South China Sea.



                                     

Hong Kong Disneyland is the first theme park inside the Hong Kong Disneyland 
Resort and the fifth Disneyland style park. Disney attempted to avoid problems
 of cultural backlash by attempting to incorporate Chinese culture, customs, and
 traditions when designing and building the resort, including adherence to the rules of Feng Shui.


 The park consists of four themed lands similar to other Disneyland parks: Main Street, 
U.S.A, Fantasyland, Adventureland and Tomorrowland. In 2014, Hong Kong Disneyland 
will include a total of seven themed lands with the addition of Grizzly Trail, 
Mystic Point and Toy Story Land, which are announced for the expansion of 
Hong Kong Disneyland. The first new themed land is expected to open in late 2011.

7) Dubai

ASSALAMUALAIKUM AND SALAM SEJAHTERA...


 Dubai is a sovereign state known as an emirate in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). A city within the emirate is also named Dubai. The emirate is located south of the Persian Gulf on the Arabian Peninsula and has the largest population with the second-largest land territory by area of all the emirates, after Abu Dhabi. Dubai and Abu Dhabi are the only two emirates to have veto power over critical matters of national importance in the country's legislature. Dubai City is located on the emirate's northern coastline.




The earliest mention of Dubai is in 1095, and the earliest settlement known as Dubai town dates from 1799. 
Dubai was formally established in 1833 by Sheikh Maktoum bin Buti al Maktoum 
when he persuaded 800 members of the Bani Yas tribe, living in what is now part of
 Saudi Arabia, to follow him to the Dubai Creek by the Al Abu Falasa clan of Bani Yas.
 It remained under clan control when the United Kingdom
 assumed the protection of Dubai in 1892. Its geographical location made it 
an important trading hub and by the beginning of the 20th century, 
it was an important port.





Today, Dubai City has emerged as a global city and a business hub. Although Dubai's economy 
was built on the oil industry, the emirate's model of business drives its economy, 
with the effect that its main revenues are now from tourism, real estate, and financial services,
 similar to that of Western countries. Dubai has recently attracted world attention through 
many innovative large construction projects and sports events.
 This increased attention has highlighted labour rights and human rights issues 
concerning its largely South Asian workforce. Almost half the population of Dubai 
comprises Indians. Dubai's property market experienced a 
major deterioration in 2008 and 2009 as a result of the worldwide 
economic downturn following the financial crisis of 2007–2010.
