Which interesting places or a city should I visit and what are the things to take note of?
Well, what I can say is don’t go and expect the same attitudes, the same accommodation, the same food, the same treatment from your favorite hotel, the same grids of streets, and others that you would find at home. Do your research and go with an open mind, but of course be sensible to the local culture and etiquette.
Despite many cities are packed with all types of restaurants and hotels and with entertainment of every description, yet you may find some with few obvious sights to attract visitors. For example, if you decide to visit the legendary Timbuktu in Mali or the entrancing Ethiopian city of Harar, you should not expect to find night-clubs or five-star hotels, instead you should go with the flow only then you could fully appreciate them. In fact, the experience or the enjoyment that we gained from visiting cities in different countries is very different, or perhaps challenging!
One of the travel tips that I learn is to gain some knowledge of the customs, culture and history and if got the time try to learn some of the language. My travel friend, Richer Choo and myself feel that even with just knowing how to say ‘Thank you’, ‘Good morning’ or ‘How are you’ in the local language is suffice to get you off on the right footing.
However, it is always good to consult your tourism’s official for advice and precautions to take. You may not aware or do not agree with many that Algiers is one of the worst cities due to its poor infrastructure, instability as well as its known for crime!
What are the world’s largest cities, you may ask? Well, Tokyo, Mumbai, New York, Mexico City…. In terms of the cities population, there is a lot of difference from city to city, some even with a population of less than 2,500, which I guess you may think it is more of a village than a city, right? That is St David’s, Britain’s smallest city that lies in the wild and beautiful Pembrokeshire Coast National Park!
Whatever it is just make sure you have the required travel insurance, the appropriate vaccination, the visas, and not to forget to pack the right clothes for the time of the year!
Have fun and enjoy travel to the world's interesting places!
