TRAVELLIVE 5-2016

When I was 18 years old, I got a lovesick since my boyfriend at high school loved another girl upon studying at university. The 18-year-old girl that time considered her health nothing, not eating for days. I locked myself in my room, and even got angry with my parents. One Friday afternoon, my father picked me up after my music lesson, let me home to get some clothes and personal stuff before driving eastward. After parking our car, he bought two tickets to a small island. I was about to say nothing, but upon arriving at a quiet wharf, I couldn’t help but asked: - Where are we going, Dad? You know I am sad, so why do you take me to such a deserted place? - I want to bring you far away from sad things you have in the mainland. I’ll teach you how to say bye to them, girl. We dived with fish, crying with the ocean. We stood on high cliffs, letting sea breezes wipe out all my stupid sadness. How magical it was! I seemed to forget the things that upset me. I just wanted to lie under coconut trees, reading my favorite books. My Dad was right. It’s stupid to let my beloved ones down because others don’t respect me. The “love story” between me and islands started like that. Time passed, I’m mature now. Whenever the life gives me “a storm”, I travel to an island so that winds and waves can erase my sorrow and fill my soul with tranquility. What about you? Which place is your “soulmate”? Share with us when you find your own peaceful island!

Isolated<br />

from the<br />

mainland,<br />

islands<br />

and islands<br />

resorts are<br />

the best<br />

choices for<br />

those who<br />

are seeking<br />

tranquility<br />

this<br />

summer.<br />

When I was 18 years old, I got lovesick since<br />

my boyfriend at high school loved another girl<br />

upon studying at university. The 18-year-old<br />

girl that time considered her health nothing,<br />

not eating for days. I locked myself in my room,<br />

and even got angry with my parents.<br />

One Friday afternoon, my father picked me<br />

up after my music lesson, brought me home<br />

to get some clothes and personal stuff before<br />

driving eastward. After parking our car, he<br />

bought two tickets to a small island. I hadn’t<br />

planned to say anything, but upon arriving at a<br />

quiet wharf, I couldn’t help but ask:<br />

- Where are we going, Dad? You know I am<br />

sad, so why do you take me to such a deserted<br />

place?<br />

- I want to bring you far away from sad things<br />

you have in the mainland. I’ll teach you how to<br />

say bye to them, girl.<br />

We dived with fish, crying with the ocean. We<br />

stood on high cliffs, letting the sea breeze wipe<br />

out all my stupid sadness. How magical it was!<br />

I seemed to forget what had upset me. I just<br />

wanted to lie under the coconut trees, reading<br />

my favorite books. My Dad was right. It’s<br />

stupid to let my beloved ones down because<br />

others don’t respect me.<br />

That how my love story with islands began.<br />

Time passed, I’m mature now. Whenever the<br />

life gives me “a storm”, I travel to an island so<br />

that winds and waves can erase my sorrow<br />

and fill my soul with tranquility.<br />

What about you? Which place is your<br />

“soulmate”? Share with us when you find your<br />

own peaceful island!<br />

Grill 63 Restaurant - Lotte Hotel Hanoi<br />

AESTHETIC<br />

AND NATURE<br />

THE ENDLESS<br />

INSPIRATIONS<br />

IN CULINARY<br />

ART...<br />

Şeref ÖZALP, a talented British chef, has<br />

over 20 years of experience in cooking<br />

and managing restaurants in 5-star hotels.<br />

Following his dream since the age of 13, he<br />

has gained considerable acclaim and has been<br />

the Executive Chef of 9 hotels in the world.<br />

His modern take on gastronomy has been<br />

respectfully awarded more than 40 times<br />

in the UK. He has also attained important<br />

positions at hotels in France, Italy, Turkey,<br />

Germany, and Thailand before working for<br />

the Lotte Hotel Hanoi.<br />

As the Executive Chef of Lotte Hotel<br />

Hanoi, Şeref ÖZALP would like to share<br />

with Travellive’s readers his journey and<br />

experiences in culinary art.<br />

Could you please start with what urged<br />

you to pursue your career as a chef?<br />

I was born in a family of chefs, my mother<br />

and my 4 siblings are chefs. Cooking gives<br />

me a lot of experience and allows me to<br />

serve and meet famous stars, businessmen,<br />

and politicians from around the world.<br />

Particularly, I have had a chance to cook<br />

dinner for the British royal family with the<br />

presence of Queen Elizabeth, as well as the<br />

Dutch and Egyptian royal families.<br />

What is your inspiration for creating<br />

new dishes?<br />

To create a new dish, I often look to art<br />

and nature. I love art as the blend of colors<br />

always brings me new ideas. Nature, with<br />

its colorful world is also an endless source<br />

of inspiration. Looking at the magical and<br />

sophisticated changes of colors in nature<br />

makes me want to present these colors at my<br />

banquet.<br />

Why did you choose Lotte Hotel Hanoi as<br />

your current workplace after working for<br />

numerous hotels in the world?<br />

Lotte Hotel Hanoi is a 5-star world class<br />

hotel belonging to Lotte - a prestigious brand<br />

name. The hotel boasts a chain of high-class<br />

restaurants which are up to my standard, so I<br />

decided to bring my talent here.<br />

As an executive chef, what do you offer<br />

your guests at the restaurants of Lotte<br />

Hotel Hanoi?<br />

The Lotte Hotel Hanoi offers its guests<br />

interesting and unparalleled dining<br />

experiences. Grill 63 is home to the best<br />

steak and premium wines. Red River serves<br />

delicious contemporary dishes, while Tim Ho<br />

Wan is world famous dimsum house from<br />

HongKong. Situated on the rooftop of the<br />

65-storey Lotte Hanoi Center, Top of Hanoi<br />

offers you an infinite open view to enjoy<br />

Hanoi by night.<br />

Thank you for your sharing! We wish you<br />

more exciting experiences in your work<br />

and life as well.<br />

equipped with everything that a discerning traveler<br />

may desire, it exudes an air of casual elegance that<br />

makes me feel immediately at home. I am satisfied<br />

with my stay on Executive floor with exclusive<br />

privileges such as personalize check-in and checkout,<br />

complementary pressing and shoe shine<br />

service. I love having a fresh µ-la-minute breakfast<br />

poolside after the gym and enjoying an evening<br />

cocktail after a long working day.<br />

I have experienced consistently good service while<br />

staying at the hotel. The Concierge is prompt<br />

and able to secure a seat at the restaurants for<br />

me, other staff are also helpful in answering<br />

any inquiries. On my birthday, the hotel made<br />

me a little cake on my arrival date, which was<br />

accompanied by a handwritten greeting card from<br />

the hotel manager. This nice gesture impressed me<br />

a lot about the way the hotel appreciate its guests.<br />

I can easily choose striking and inviting dining<br />

options available in the hotel. Tiffin All-Day-Dining<br />

is an elegant social meeting point with a fantastic<br />

range of local food as well as terrific Asian and<br />

Western favorites. The Emperor Restaurant<br />

features a sophisticated twist on traditional Japanese<br />

dining. May Man Dim Sum brunch enticed guests to<br />

immerse themselves in the splendid surroundings<br />

for a quintessential dining experience.<br />

Aiming to provide a comfortable and stimulating<br />

venue that boosts creativity, Fortuna Hotel Hanoi<br />

can accommodate events of varying size. Boasting<br />

over 2,000 square metres, two elegant ballrooms<br />

and six well-appointed function rooms with the<br />

capacity up to 800 guests are ideal places for<br />

business travelers.<br />

Fortuna Hotel Hanoi is a great choice for those<br />

who value a rare combination of tradition, luxury,<br />

service and convenience. I enjoyed my stay there<br />

and will surely return for another visit.<br />

YOURSELF AT THE LEADING GOLF<br />

CLUB IN VIETNAM<br />

The Vietnam Golf & Country Club, also known as Thu Duc, is located 20km from the city center on Highway 1. Set amongst 360<br />

hectares of land, this 36-hole golf course has been carved out of the existing woodland with minimal land modifications, leaving you<br />

feeling that the land was always destined to be a golf course. Vietnam Golf & Country Club has 2 courses: the East and West courses.<br />

The Western course first opened in December 1994, and was designed by Taiwanese architect Chen King Shih while the Eastern course, a<br />

work of Lee Trevino, opened in 1997. The par 72 course is considered the leading golf club in Vietnam and attracts 500 golfers each Saturday<br />

and Sunday. It's also where the first amateur golf championship took place in Vietnam.<br />

The journey to Hanoi and Hue - the two<br />

Vietnamese dynastic capitals will give you a ticket<br />

to the glorious national past and traditions of this<br />

fascinating country.<br />

The journey begins in Hanoi. After<br />

sightseeing the capital’s corners with<br />

the blend of tradition and modern life,<br />

you can indulge in street food that can<br />

be found anywhere. If you want to visit<br />

the neighboring communities such as<br />

Bat Trang ceramic village or Duong Lam ancient<br />

village, a taxi is the most convenient means of<br />

transportation, especially during these hot days.<br />

About 70km from the city center, Tam Dao (Vinh<br />

Phuc) is an ideal place to enjoy foggy mornings<br />

and cool weather. What could be safer and more<br />

convenient than travelling by taxi to famous<br />

attractions like Thac Bac, the old church, and Mount<br />

Rung Rinhas you can easily stop and take some<br />

awesome pictures of the beautiful scenery?<br />

you can also travel to Ha Nam to visit traditional<br />

craft villages like Nha Xa silk village and Doi Tam<br />

drum-making village or other landscapes such as<br />

Ngoc Mountain, Cam Mountain, and Bat Canh Son.<br />

end your wonderful trip with Hue - the ancient<br />

capital of Nguyen Dynasty.<br />

To fly to Hue, you can travel from central Hanoi to<br />

Noi Bai Airport by taxi at a reasonable price from<br />

VND180,000 - VND250,000. Hue is renowned<br />

for its palaces and ancient tombs, as well as Lang<br />

vCo Bay - one of the most beautiful in the world.<br />

These destinations are quite far from each other;<br />

therefore, you should travel by taxi to not lose<br />

your way.<br />

With more than 1,000 cars, Thanh Cong Taxi<br />

provides high-quality services in Hanoi, Ha Nam,<br />

Vinh Phuc, and Hue. This brand has also introduced<br />

an airport taxi at competitive rates: VND180,000/<br />

4-seat car and VND230,000/7-seat car for a turn<br />

from Hanoi to Noi Bai Airport. Thanh Cong Taxi<br />

offers a multitude of services including cheap<br />

5-seat taxi, 7-seat Sedan taxi, and airport taxi to<br />

accommodate your needs no matter the scale.<br />

With the comprehensive development in expanding<br />

the scope of activities, Thanh Cong Taxi always<br />

attempts to give its guests the best transportation<br />

services and be the best companion for your<br />

journeys.<br />

The inspiring story<br />

of the woman<br />

who saved the<br />

appalachian trail<br />

At the age of 67, Emma Gatewood,<br />

a normal woman who spent most of<br />

her life on a farm, left her small Ohio<br />

hometown with just a change of<br />

clothes and fewer than two hundred<br />

dollars. She had walked 800 miles to<br />

the 2,000-mile Appalachian Trail. In<br />

September 1955, having survived a<br />

rattlesnake bite, two hurricanes, and<br />

a run-in with gangsters, Emma - who<br />

had suffered from a painful marriage<br />

with the abusive husband - stood<br />

atop Maine's Mount Katahdin. She<br />

became the first woman to hike<br />

the entire Appalachian Trail alone.<br />

Grandma Gatewood's Walk: The<br />

Inspiring Story of the Woman Who<br />

Saved the Appalachian Trail records<br />

Emma Gatewood's journey - a story<br />

of triumph over pain, rebellion from<br />

brutality, and hope against suffering.<br />

delightful salad with katsuo tataki mixed with<br />

white and red seaweed, daikon sprouts, and<br />

the special sauce. Chilled soba noodles on a<br />

tray of ice cubes is the main course. When<br />

enjoying this dish, dip the noodles in soy<br />

sauce seasoned with spring onion and thin<br />

strips of ginger. The May's menu also includes<br />

grilled beltfish rolles with potato, mochi cakes<br />

wrapped inside fresh oak leaves, and octopus<br />

served with a tangy sauce.<br />

BREAKFAST<br />

AT LE MERIDIEN<br />

Breakfast is considered the most<br />

important meal as you are advised<br />

to "eat like a King". How do you<br />

suppose a King would enjoy his<br />

breakfast in Saigon, where Asian<br />

culture meets European style?<br />

1. Signature items that you can only find<br />

at Le Meridien<br />

Salmon Eggs Benedict: Benedict is one of most<br />

delicious European breakfast dishes. Le Meridien's<br />

Salmon Egg Benedict consists of grilled salmon,<br />

poached egg, toasted English muffins, and a passion<br />

hollandaise sauce made from cheese and egg yolk.<br />

Panda Crepe: The mini version of pandan crepe<br />

made from dried coconut, peanut, cinnamon, and<br />

chocolate will mesmerize all sweet lovers.<br />

Brioche French Toast: Prepared with caramelized<br />

mango, longan honey, ginger froth, and cinnamon<br />

powder, the Brioche French Toast is a must-try<br />

breakfast dish offered at Le Meridien. Since the 5 th<br />

century, traditional French Toast has consisted of<br />

slices of bread dipped in milk and beaten eggs, fried<br />

and served with powdered sugar or honey. The<br />

French call this dish pain perdu - "lost bread" as it is<br />

a way to reclaim stale or otherwise "lost" bread.<br />

2. Pastries: What could be better than enjoying<br />

breakfast with a glass of aromatic Vietnamese coffee<br />

and soft Danishes with fruit jam, chocolate and an<br />

assortment of nuts. You can choose between the<br />

chocolate Danish, Fruits Danish, Almond Danish,<br />

and more.<br />

3. Eye Openers: The flavors, aromas and colors<br />

of fruits as well as fresh vegetables and spices<br />

combine to create your first discovery of the<br />

morning. A sweet eye opener (soursop + tangerine<br />

+ Carrot) boosts your energy with vitamins. The<br />

tangy eye opener (mango + Vietnamese basil +<br />

calamansi) leaves you feeling fresh and purifies<br />

your body, while the spicy eye opener (passion<br />

fruit + Aloe vera + ginger) has wonderful healing<br />

properties and will warm you up from head to toe.<br />

4. B∏nh m˙ Saigon: Le Meridien is one of few<br />

hotels where you can enjoy streetfood. The b∏nh<br />

m◊ (Vietnamese Sandwich) is both greasy and<br />

flavorful with Vietnamese mortadella, braised pork<br />

belly, mayonnaise, cucumber, coriander, spring<br />

onion, soy, and chilli.<br />

5. Illy Cafä: Le Meridien uses Italian Illy coffee<br />

for its cappuccinos, lattes, and espresso. An Italian<br />

cappuccino is traditionally prepared with espresso<br />

mixed with the double amount of water (espresso<br />

lungo), steamed milk, and is often topped with<br />

cocoa or cinnamon. If you don't like much caffeine,<br />

you can have your latte with doubled milk.

LIE IN BED WATCHING THE ENTIRE OCEAN<br />

It's not for nothing that those who have had the chance visit the World<br />

Resort Sentosa (RWS) have always wanted to stay at the ocean suite. The<br />

RWS has only 11 ocean suites but there are thousands of visitors staying<br />

at the Sentosa each year; therefore, the opportunity to stay at one of these<br />

suites are like that of spotting the queen bee among thousands of workers.<br />

The Ocean Suite has two floors which provide a little variety in your<br />

experience here. The top floor is is open to the sunlight and breeze, while<br />

the bottom leads to a deep aquarium. In this "sunken" floor, there is a<br />

"window" open to the world's largest ocean park. It is no exaggeration to<br />

say that at Ocean suite, you can literally lie in bed watching the fish swim.<br />

Moreover, a jacuzzi is discreetly hidden under the wood floor so that you<br />

feel like you are bathing in the ocean with over 40,000 species of fish.<br />

WHAT DOES LEE HYORI SEE IN JEJU?<br />

When Lee Hyori, the sexy lead singer from South Korea, decided to marry<br />

musician Lee Sang Soon, she surprised everyone with her decision to leave<br />

the music scene. Lee Hyori and her husband moved to lovely Jeju Island to<br />

start their new life. But why did the queen of the entertainment world leave<br />

the glorious life and live on Jeju but not somewhere else?<br />

Stay at the Shilla Jeju Hotel & Resort to let the island pamper you.<br />

Perhaps, you will find your own answer to this question.<br />

In addition to luxurious accommodation, The Shilla Jeju Hotel & Resort<br />

has introduced more activities such as climbing Mount Halla, trekking<br />

on Olle trail or through the forest, eco diving, sunset yachting, and fishing<br />

as well as enjoying barbicue while playing board games at the Glamping<br />

Village.<br />

Under the cover of lush greenery, you can relax as you saunter along<br />

the small stone pathways past lakes and fishing ponds. At any time when<br />

getting up near the window overlooking Mount Halla or strolling down<br />

the trail, you will feel at peace no matter whether you are staying in a wood<br />

roofed house or a tent.<br />

RELAX ON THE<br />

"BILLIONAIRE" ISLAND<br />

Located on the southeastern tip of<br />

reef-ringed Siargao, it's close the<br />

the Philippine trench and Cloud<br />

9, the famous surfing destination.<br />

It's home to ancient mangrove<br />

forests which provides a unique<br />

opportunity for ecotourists during<br />

the summer holidays.<br />

What do you think of when you<br />

think of bliss? It's probably the<br />

feeling of walking barefoot on the<br />

white sands of Naked Island and<br />

feeling the crystal-clear sea water<br />

through your fingers at Sohoton<br />

Cave Lagoons in Siargao with<br />

the sea pagoda in the distance.<br />

The island whisks you away to a<br />

palm fringed paradise sheltered<br />

from the raw tropical wilderness<br />

all around. The pavilion with the<br />

reception lounge incorporates<br />

local architectural influences in its<br />

design. You can see local materials<br />

all over from woven palm branch<br />

roofing, carved yakal wood to<br />

bamboo lamps, and beaded gauze<br />

curtains. The nine villas of the<br />

resort integrate seamlessly with the<br />

natural environment, characterized<br />

by pitched and sweeping roofs. The<br />

most interesting space in the resort<br />

is a series of elevated woven domes,<br />

connected by a wooden platform<br />

where you can read and relax in the<br />

sunshine. The iconic Dedon Island<br />

Pagoda, which marks the resort's<br />

place along the coastline, is easily<br />

reached by paddle boat, kayak, or a<br />

light swim.<br />

AT BORNEO<br />

Home to sea turtles, clown fish, giant<br />

groupers, trigger fish, barracudas, whale<br />

sharks, etc., the Gaya Island reef attracts<br />

millions of tourists from around the world<br />

to come and learn about jungle and marine<br />

life. Situated in Gaya Island's Polish Bay<br />

(about 30 minutes from Kota Kinabalu by<br />

speedboat), Bunga Raya Island Resort is<br />

a romantic and luxurious jewel set on an<br />

island. As a secluded island hideaway of 48<br />

timbered villas, the resort is tucked away in<br />

a tranquil and hidden bay framed by a sandy<br />

white beach on one side and the ancient<br />

tropical jungle on the other. Each private<br />

villa is terraced into the hillside reflecting<br />

the traditional simplicity of the local Borneo<br />

people, blending seamlessly with the<br />

luxurious comforts.<br />

For those who love diving but don't have a<br />

license yet, it is such a relief that no license<br />

is required for diving at Bunga Raya. The<br />

resort offers their customers specially<br />

trained PADI certified instructors to guide<br />

them every step of the way. All new divers<br />

are first taken to the swimming pool, where<br />

they undergo a comprehensive briefing and<br />

training for their safety. Don't forget to trek<br />

in the jungle and feel the breeze blowing<br />

through a living tropical forest.<br />

If you are wondering what to prepare during your<br />

wonderful beach holiday with your family and kids, keep<br />

these suggestions in mind!<br />

DON’T GET BURNED<br />

It’s hard to forget your swimsuit, but remember other<br />

crucial items including towels, scarves, wide-brimmed<br />

hats, and sunscreen that’s SPF 45 or more. Make<br />

sure to pack thin and light outfits, cute swimsuits and<br />

sunscreen for kids so that they will have fun at the<br />

beach.<br />

HEAlTH FIRST<br />

you had better prepare some<br />

medicine for common medical issues<br />

such as fever and stomachache as well<br />

as antibiotics and other medication<br />

when your children need a specific drug<br />

that’s not available on some islands.<br />

NO EMpTY STOMACHS<br />

Trying fresh seafood at a seaside<br />

restaurant? you couldn’t ask for more, but<br />

your children may disagree. Remember to bring<br />

milk, snacks, and foods that already appeal to them<br />

since they might not be satisfied with seafood. If your<br />

baby is still in breast-feeding, don’t forget a bottle and<br />

sanitizer.<br />

A HAppY JOURNEY TOGETHER<br />

you definitely don’t want your children to be<br />

homesick, so make sure you have some of their<br />

favorite things. Some stories or a coloring book<br />

should sooth their little tempers.<br />

THE WORlD INSIDE THE MOTHER’S<br />

lUGGAGE<br />

you should make a list of important<br />

personal items for each family<br />

member. Avoid forgetting your<br />

own things when focusing on<br />

your kids. you should also<br />

bring some bags for dirty<br />

clothes, shoes, etc.<br />

you have a good camera to<br />

capture your time there?<br />

Koh Samet - Thailand<br />

NIGHT SQUID FISHING<br />

Just a 2.5 hour drive from Bangkok, Koh Sament welcomes<br />

visitors with year-round sunshine, turquoise water, and the warm<br />

sea breeze. This is not only a suitable place for those who seek<br />

tranquility and impeccable beauty but is also an ideal island for<br />

diving and water sports.<br />

As a peaceful small town, Koh Samet is makes a great getaway for<br />

contemplating the sunset while walking on the beach. It only takes<br />

a few minutes to travel from the resort to the beach. From Sai Kaew<br />

beach, visitors can get on a long-tail motorboat to explore the green<br />

island, Koh Samet. The water is so clear that you can see the fish<br />

below. The blue sea and sunshine are what comprise Koh Samet’s<br />

stunning beauty. Soaking in the cool water seems to be familiar to<br />

all, but sunbathing on Koh Samet is an unparalleled experience.<br />

The smooth sandy beach is perfect for relaxing and tanning.<br />

Sunset is the time when lively activities take place. Enjoy fresh<br />

seafood at the seaside restaurants. Unwind with friends at bars.<br />

Walk along the beach, or join in the unique local dances.<br />

For a truly special experience, take part in the squid fishing tour<br />

at night. You will be provided a bamboo pole, hooks and reflective<br />

fishing tackle. When the hooks are cast into the sea, the sparkling<br />

light lures squids. According to the ship’s owner, the squid are<br />

attracted to the light given off by live and artificial shrimp alike, so<br />

there’s no need for live bait. Wait for the right time, the ship owner<br />

will use a hand net to catch the sparkling squids - the best booty a<br />

tourist fisherman could wish for.<br />

Itinerary:<br />

ü You can travel with a<br />

16-seat car from Victory<br />

Monument Station in Bangkok<br />

to Rayong ferry terminal for<br />

200 baht. From the ferry<br />

terminal, take the ferry or<br />

a wooden boat to Koh<br />

Samet. Wooden boat: 100<br />

baht/round trip, 45 minutes.<br />

Speed canoe: 300baht/turn,<br />

20 minutes.<br />

Hotel:<br />

ü You can book a room via<br />

agoda.com, booking.com or<br />

smartbooking hotel. Rates<br />

vary from 40 to 100USD<br />

Activities:<br />

ü night squid fishing, visiting<br />

Koh Samet, diving, exploring,<br />

taking pictures of the sunset,<br />

and having dinner on the<br />

beach.<br />

Cuisine:<br />

ü The two signature dishes<br />

here are crepe and grilled fish<br />

with salt. Sold on pushcarts,<br />

the crepes with chocolate<br />

covering smell delicious. You<br />

can find grilled fish at the<br />

small restaurants along the<br />

beach in the late afternoon<br />

and evening.<br />

For a truly<br />

special<br />

experience,<br />

take part in<br />

the squid<br />

at night.<br />

FORGET ABOUT WIFI<br />

ust 45 minutes from Sihanouk Ville by sea, Koh Rong<br />

Samloem is a beautiful, pristine island. Unlike Koh<br />

Rong, Koh Rong Samloem is a small island with<br />

no residential areas. There are few homestays and<br />

resorts scattered about the island. They are all the<br />

most lovely little wooden houses on the beach with<br />

gardens which are...very small.<br />

It isn’t for nothing that Koh Rong Samloem is considered<br />

a hideaway island. You will be isolated from technology<br />

when staying there. There is no wifi. Electricity is cut<br />

twice a day, and of course without electricity, there’s<br />

no phone signal. Pack a good camera, your favorite<br />

books, and get ready to forget all about technology. The<br />

hideaway island awaits you.<br />

As simple as the turquoise water and the unplugged<br />

life is, you can visit anywhere you want on Koh Rong<br />

Samloem without much consideration. If you like a<br />

peaceful beach, then go to Sunrise beach. Want to<br />

challenge yourself with strong waves? Go to Sunset<br />

beach. The wooden seaside houses are the best places<br />

to enjoy privacy while you make friends with visitors at<br />

other homestays.<br />

Apart from indulging in the clear water and sunbathing<br />

under the coconut trees along the beach, you can go<br />

diving or hire a boat to visit M'Pay Bay, or climb to the<br />

lighthouse in Paradise Village to take in the beauty of<br />

Koh Rong Samloem.<br />

ITINERARY:<br />

ü You can travel by plane or bus<br />

from HCMC to Phnompenh then<br />

take a bus to Sihanouk Ville. Hire<br />

a boat to Koh Rong Samloem, buy<br />

tickets at the terminal, or ask the<br />

hotel receptionists for help. (Bus<br />

ticket from HCMC to Phnompenh<br />

costs about VND200,000, bus ticket<br />

from Phnompenh to Sihanouk Ville<br />

costs USD10, and a roundtrip from<br />

Sihanouk Ville to the island costs<br />

USD20)<br />

CURRENCY:<br />

My favorite island was<br />

Koh Rong Samloem - a<br />

truly tranquil paradise.<br />

There was no wifi<br />

connection, and electricity<br />

was cut off twice a<br />

day. The only things I<br />

could do was immerse<br />

myself in the turquoise<br />

water near the beach<br />

and enjoy the absolutely<br />

tranquility there. Almost<br />

all resorts are located<br />

near the beach to utilize<br />

the natural space. A<br />

recommendation for you<br />

is Moonlight Resort, one<br />

of the most luxurious<br />

resorts on Koh Rong<br />

Samloem. The price is<br />

about USD120/night.<br />

Each villa is uniquely<br />

designed in white with<br />

windows that allow you to<br />

enjoy the sea’s beauty.<br />

ITINERARY:<br />

ü From the heart of Quy Nhon,<br />

you travel about 20km to Nhon<br />

Ly peninsula and follow a small<br />

pathway to the boat terminal. From<br />

there, travel by boat about 30<br />

minutes to reach Ky Co. Price: From<br />

VND270,000 to 300,000/guest.<br />

Time:<br />

ü The best time is from April to<br />

August when Central Vietnam is<br />

most beautiful.

Complete with nature<br />

Like a gemstone adorning a beautiful necklace, Mother Nature<br />

has endowed Binh Dinh with a landscape as captivating as the<br />

majestic sceneries of a painting. From afar, Ky Co looks like a<br />

large bow embracing smooth sandy beaches and two towering<br />

cliffs.<br />

Ky Co is a complex of rocks and hollow caverns. It has retained<br />

its original beauty without being tainted by tourism. The water<br />

is clear and changes with the sun. Near the coast, you can even<br />

see the smooth ripples of sand below. As you walk and view<br />

the sea from different angles, you can see the waters change<br />

from turquoise jade to a sapphire blue. From atop, the small<br />

boats appear to be hovering in the sky reflected upon the sea.<br />

The winds near Ky Co are quite calm thanks to the beach’s<br />

bow shape. Soak in the turquoise water, feel smooth sand flow<br />

between your toes, and capture all the moments with Ky Co<br />

with a good camera. Relax and enjoy lunch in a small cave for<br />

a new dining experience.<br />

Ky Co Island also has a chain of green hills emerging from the<br />

vast sea. If you want to explore the island, you need to follow<br />

trails along the cliffs to the highest points. No matter whether<br />

you choose to conquer the cliffs or go along the hot sandy<br />

beach, your days in Ky Co will be relaxing and complete.<br />

The four more experiences are wandering on the road across the island, exploring the<br />

pristine forest, sightseeing at the 140m lighthouse, and diving to view the coral.

ITINERARY:<br />

There are two ways to<br />

travel to Tho Chu:<br />

ü Take a passenger car<br />

from HCMC to Rach Gia,<br />

then get on a ship to Tho<br />

Chu. It takes about 16 hours<br />

to travel by ship. The Rach<br />

Gia - Tho Chu ship depart<br />

on the 5th day of each<br />

month and return on the<br />

26 th or 31 st day. The tickets<br />

are free but you should hire<br />

a hammock to lie down<br />

during the journey.<br />

ü Fly to Phu Quoc and take<br />

a ship to Tho Chu. The ship<br />

starts at 8am on the 10 th ,<br />

15 th , 20th, 25 th , and 30 th day<br />

each month and returns at<br />

5am on the 11 th , 21 st, and<br />

25 th day.<br />

NOTE:<br />

ü There is only one ship<br />

departing and returning<br />

from Tho Chu each week.<br />

It’s 250km from Rach Gia<br />

to Tho Cho so the travel<br />

time is longer. You should<br />

prepare food and medicine<br />

in case of sea sickness.<br />

THE SOUTHMOST ISLAND<br />

Tho Chu is an island of the Tho Chu archipelago (Phu<br />

Quoc, Kien Giang). The archipelago consists of numerous<br />

islands of various sizes 160km to the southeast of Ca Mau<br />

and 220km from Rach Gia.<br />

Bai Ngu is a must-visit destination. Here, you can swim,<br />

visit the seafood processing factories, or learn more about<br />

the locals’ life.<br />

The three more experiences are wandering on the road<br />

across the island, exploring the pristine forest, sightseeing<br />

at the 140m lighthouse, and diving to view the coral. If you<br />

travel to this island from the 10 th lunar month to the 3 rd<br />

month the following year, don’t forget to visit Nhan islet to<br />

witness the swallows making their nest and laying eggs.<br />

The island’s lighthouse is not too high (it can only<br />

brighten up an area of 12 nautical miles) but it is located<br />

on one of the highest points on the island (167m). From<br />

the lighthouse, you can take in the beauty of the entire<br />

island with mountains, houses hidden under coconut<br />

trees, peaceful beaches, and small boats docked in rows.<br />

The tiny dots in the distance are large ships floating on the<br />

vast blue sea.<br />

SOAK IN THE ORANGE LIGHTS IN CAO CAT MOUNTAIN - THE BEST<br />

PLACE TO CONTEMPLATE SUNSET ON PHU QUY ISLAND<br />

ITINeRARy:<br />

ü Travel to Phan Thiet<br />

fishing port (3km from<br />

the city center) and buy<br />

ship ticket to Phu Quy<br />

Island. There are two<br />

types of ships operating<br />

alternately. The best and<br />

fastest one is Hung Phat<br />

26. Prices: VND250,000/<br />

seat, VND350,000/<br />

sleeper. The trip lasts<br />

about 4 hours.<br />

TIMe:<br />

ü The best time to<br />

travel to Phu Quy is from<br />

March to May when the<br />

sea is calm.<br />

NOTe:<br />

ü There is only one ship<br />

to and from the island<br />

each day so you should<br />

plan carefully.<br />

Phu Quy Island, also known as<br />

Cu Lao Thu, is located off the<br />

coast of Binh Thuan, about 54<br />

nautical miles from Phan Thiet.<br />

The island spans an area of only<br />

16km 2 , but there are<br />

many interesting things to<br />

explore there.<br />

Firstly, this is an isolated island.<br />

Only one boat goes to the island<br />

and returns to mainland. Due to<br />

unstable water levels, this boat<br />

has no fixed schedule so you need<br />

to follow the schedule each day<br />

to book a trip. Moreover, weather<br />

is an important factor as the boat<br />

THE ISlAND OF CHAllENGES<br />

can only run when the wind level<br />

is lower than 7.<br />

The Phu Quy flagpole is a famous<br />

attraction for many tourists. From<br />

the flagpole, you can fully take<br />

in the coastline’s 2 crystal-clear<br />

beaches. The fantastic water and<br />

black stones make Phu Quy more<br />

unique.<br />

Another must-visit destination<br />

is Ganh Hang where every<br />

photographer wishes to visit to<br />

capture the magnificent sunrise.<br />

Nearby is Doi Thay which brings<br />

you lots of surprises with its<br />

strange geological structures.<br />

Huge rock plates are stacked<br />

together and stretch toward the<br />

sea. Under the reef are fortresses<br />

where locals raise lobsters. They<br />

call them fortresses as the farms<br />

are built of stone and concrete<br />

to keep strong waves and winds<br />

away.<br />

Not only enticing visitors with<br />

its long sandy beaches, beautiful<br />

poplars, and tranquility, the<br />

island is also an exciting place<br />

to swim, dive among the corals,<br />

go fi shing, catch sea urchins, and<br />

enjoy seafood right on the beach.<br />

Then she runs into her room and takes a big bag of snail shells, seashells, dried<br />

trip. We got sunburnt while collecting them along the beach. That was my time of<br />

comfort, without deadlines and continuous phone calls. I had only to attend to the<br />

sea breeze playing with my hair, the smooth sandy beach, the sonorous melodies of<br />

waves, and my niece's whooping.<br />

My tasks are finished, so I can spend next weekend fulfilling my promise to Daisy. So<br />

many ideas come to mind; jingling wind chimes to hang on the window, a frame with a<br />

meaningful quote for the desk, a candle cup with starfish? How wonderful it is create<br />

such precious things while listening to the family's princess tell her stories! Hey, the<br />

Parasailing is a popular sport for<br />

those who enjoy adventurous beach<br />

journeys. Parasailing is available<br />

on almost all beaches in Vietnam,<br />

especially in Da Nang, Cua Dai beach<br />

- Hoi An, Nha Trang, and Phu Quoc.<br />

The rates range from VND450,000 to<br />

VND850,000 for one or two people<br />

(single or double parachute) to be<br />

up 20-30 minutes, depending on the<br />

services and the beach.<br />

Parasailing is one of the most attractive<br />

beach sports. It works with parachutes<br />

being connected to motorboats that<br />

run at the speed of 60 to 70km/h.<br />

The wind fills the parachutes and lifts<br />

it up. When hovering at 70-100m,<br />

you can relax and take in the sea and<br />

city’s beauty from the angles that<br />

the seagulls do. The best time for<br />

parasailing is at sunset when you can<br />

soak in the vast space with sea breeze<br />

and the last sunrays.

As the combination of parasailing<br />

and windsurfing, kiteboarding is<br />

more challenging and adventurous.<br />

Kiteboarding has become more<br />

popular since the International<br />

Kiteboarding Competitions started<br />

being held in Vietnam.<br />

Kiteboarding is a surface water sport.<br />

A kiteboarder harnesses the power<br />

of the wind with a large controllable<br />

power kite to be propelled across the<br />

water on a kiteboard. With strong<br />

wind and sunny weather, Mui Ne<br />

beach in Binh Thuan and Ninh Chu<br />

Bay - Ninh Thuan are the ideal places<br />

for this sport.<br />

Unlike parasailing - a sport that you<br />

can try after a matter of minutes<br />

instruction, kiteboarding requires<br />

lots of skill and practice to be able to<br />

control the kite.<br />

The Nha Trang Bay Marine Protected Area<br />

found in the world. What could be better<br />

than touching seahorses, contemplating fish<br />

and colorful reefs while walking on the sea<br />

bottom without complicated diving suits and<br />

equipment? With seawalker, a new type of<br />

tourism in Nha Trang, all you need is a special<br />

transparent hat with oxygen supply equipment<br />

and to follow professional divers to explore the<br />

sea bottom.<br />

This is designed for everyone regardless age<br />

and weight. You don’t even need to know<br />

how to swim. Visitors are often brought to<br />

islands like Hon Mot or Hon Tam, where it’s<br />

not windy and the sea is calm. You will have<br />

about 15 to 20 minutes to walk around to see<br />

how wonderful marine life is. Like a mermaid,<br />

you are free to stroll the sea bottom among<br />

colorful coral reefs, embrace a fat fish, and see<br />

everything as lively as possible.<br />

This is a modern sea sport which has become more<br />

and more popular around the world, especially in<br />

France, the UK, America, Dubai, Thailand, and<br />

Vietnam. Flyboarding, also known as hover-boarding,<br />

is an “aristocratic” sport since players must spend<br />

about VND1,800,000 to take part for 20 minutes.<br />

A flyboarding set costs about USD6,000 (over<br />

VND120,000,000). Invented by Franky Zapata, the set<br />

includes a personal water craft (PWC) which supplies<br />

propulsion to drive the flyboard through air and water.<br />

Nha Trang is the only place offering flyboarding in<br />

Vietnam. When trying this sport, you can easily fly to 9-<br />

10m above the water, fall down or hover like superman.<br />

Of course, to perform technical movements, you have<br />

to practice for a quite long time; however, it takes only<br />

some minutes to make simple movements such as<br />

standing on water, balancing, or turning.<br />

Prices: VND600,000/guest/5 minutes, VND950,000/guest for a 10-minute<br />

training and 10 minutes of playing, VND1,800,000/guest for a 10-minute<br />

training and 20 minutes of playing. For further information, please visit<br />

Laksa has been a popular spicy noodle soup in Peranakan cuisine for more than 1000 years. Asam laksa<br />

consists of rice vermicelli like Vietnamese b∏nh canh. The broth is prepared from fish and sour asam, the<br />

dried slices of sour mangosteens. When served, greens, spring onion, and mint are added. It doesn't look like<br />

much, but it's addictive to many foodies who can't resist the fish broth's blend of sweet and spicy flavors.<br />

Upon arriving in Penang, it seems fitting to shout open sesame so that<br />

it might open up and reveal its secrets. It enchants me whenever I have<br />

a chance to open the door of one of the old houses, houses chock full of<br />

centuries old tales, or enter the world of street art in the old town. I can<br />

THE STORIES OF OLD<br />

HOUSES<br />

Pinang Peranakan Mansion<br />

This is one of the most gorgeous<br />

mansions in George Town, the<br />

capital of Penang. Built by one of the<br />

most famous people in 19 th century<br />

Malaysia, the house has a long and<br />

vivid history. After having been<br />

abandoned for many decades, Pinang<br />

Peranakan was bought and rebuilt<br />

by a real estate developer before<br />

becoming a museum for Peranakan<br />

antiques.<br />

Peranakan is a special community of<br />

mix-raced people within the former<br />

British Straits Settlement of Penang.<br />

The other three trade centers were<br />

Singapore, Malacca, and Labuan.<br />

The Peranakan people in Penang<br />

have created their own lifestyle<br />

harmoniously blending British,<br />

Malaysian and Chinese cultures.<br />

They have inherited a huge treasure<br />

of language, culinary art, and land.<br />

With more than 1,000 antiques<br />

and collectors items, the Pinang<br />

Peranakan Mansion demonstrates<br />

the Peranakans’ extravagant wealth<br />

and lifestyle in the 19 th century. In<br />

this house, you can find a picture<br />

of the first owner, Mr. Chung Keng<br />

Quee, and his descendants. There are<br />

also rare and precious silk clothes,<br />

powder boxes, and lipsticks on the<br />

200-year-old dressing table, as well as<br />

a collection of Victorian ceramics.<br />

Chong Fatt Tze Mansion<br />

The Chong Fatt Tze Mansion, also<br />

known as the Blue Mansion because<br />

of its distinctive blue walls, is a<br />

special historic house. Its first owner,<br />

Cheong Fatt Tze, was a talented<br />

politician and one of the wealthiest<br />

businessmen in Southeast Asia at<br />

that time. He had 8 sons with his<br />

8 wives from China, Indonesia,<br />

Singapore, Hong Kong, and Malaysia.<br />

Of all these wives, he loved the 7 th<br />

one most. This was the reason for the<br />

house’s crisis.<br />

Before Cheong Fatt Tze died, he left<br />

his whole fortune to his 2-year-old<br />

child, the youngest son of the 7 th wife.<br />

The boy was too young to save such<br />

a huge fortune. He grew up looking<br />

upon his brothers arguing over his<br />

best interest and became reliant upon<br />

the house. After he died, the house<br />

was usurped and abandoned. Later<br />

on, when the government sold it,<br />

there was nearly nothing left in the<br />

house.<br />

Nowadays, after restored, Cheong<br />

Fatt Tze Mansion serves as a<br />

boutique hotel called The Blue<br />

Mansion by Samadhi. Spend a stay<br />

here and you can learn all about the<br />

luxurious lifestyle in the first years of<br />

the 20 th century.<br />

Clan Jetties<br />

Recognized by UNESCO as a world<br />

heritage site, these wood houses<br />

were built in the mid-19 th century<br />

by immigrants from Fujian, China.<br />

This place used to be Malaysia’s most<br />

bustling seaport in the 19 th century<br />

with ships and merchants from<br />

around the world. The Clan Jetties<br />

consisting of 75 preserved houses<br />

are an integral part of Penang’s<br />

heritage. Even before you’ve entered<br />

these houses, you feel the antique<br />

atmosphere of the narrow wooden<br />

pathways, and the old fans sound like<br />

they are from the 1980s. The old men<br />

lie in old chairs waving paper pans.<br />

Some old houses sell home-made<br />

durian ice-cream or durian puff cakes<br />

along the jetties.<br />

One of the most famous dishes<br />

in Penang is char kway teow<br />

- stirred flat rice noodles with<br />

fresh prawn, egg, bean sprouts,<br />

and spring onion. Chefs often stir<br />

it with duck eggs or crab meat to<br />

make the dish more flavorful. Char<br />

kway teow is placed on a banana<br />

leaf in Malaysian style. The dish<br />

may not meet Vietnamese taste<br />

due to the generous amounts of<br />

oil and soy sauce, but char kway<br />

teow will certainly be a new dining<br />

experience for you.

It might surprise you that<br />

the families living in these<br />

houses aren’t required to pay<br />

any kind of land tax because...<br />

they don’t live on the land.<br />

The best time to visit the Clan Jetties,<br />

and Chew Jetty in particular, is<br />

during sunset when you can relax<br />

on the wooden bridge and watch the<br />

sparkling jade sea with fishing boats<br />

under the yellow orange sun beams.<br />

STREET ART IN<br />

THE GEORGE TOWN<br />

George Town was officially<br />

recognized by UNESCO as a world<br />

cultural heritage on July 7 th 2008.<br />

Strolling down its small streets on<br />

a cool afternoon to look at the old<br />

houses and graffiti art is one of the<br />

most exciting experiences in Penang.<br />

This is also the most checked-in<br />

place. Tourists take photos of the 3D<br />

paintings all over the place. The locals<br />

should be commended for their good<br />

nature as strange people gather to<br />

take pictures in front of their homes.<br />

When traffic jams occur, cars even<br />

stop to wait for visitors to finish their<br />

shots instead of honking.<br />

Strolling down<br />

streets to look at<br />

the old houses and<br />

graffiti art is one<br />

of the most exciting<br />

experiences. they<br />

tell stories about<br />

the customs and<br />

cultural treasures<br />

of the George Town<br />

There are two main forms of Street<br />

Art in George Town: 3D paintings<br />

and steel rod caricatures which the<br />

“Marking George Town” map at the<br />

airport introduces. However, there<br />

are some statues and sculptures not<br />

mentioned on the map; so whether<br />

you can discover them or not is up to<br />

your luck.<br />

They all tell stories about the<br />

customs and cultural treasures<br />

of the George Town. If you seek<br />

something weird and ridiculous,<br />

then check out the Cheating<br />

Husband- a steel-rod sculpture<br />

installed on the wall of a house<br />

facing Love Lane. The image of a<br />

corpulent man escaping from his<br />

wife will have you laughing out<br />

loud. Meanwhile the “Too Narrow”<br />

on Lorong Soo Hong Street<br />

describes a riskshaw driver who<br />

is driving so fast he drops his two<br />

passengers, and the Rope Style on<br />

Jalan Pintal Tali evokes Rapunzel<br />

whose hair was braided into rope.<br />

Or you can challenge yourself to<br />

find the “101 Lost Kittens”. As<br />

the name reflects, the Thai artist,<br />

Natthapon Muangkliang, along with<br />

Louise Low and Tang Yeok Khang<br />

from Malaysia have hidden 101<br />

kittens in a collection of 12 artworks<br />

throughout Georgetown. Aiming to<br />

raise awareness about lost pets, the<br />

collection consists of Skippy Comes<br />

To Penang, Please Care & Bathe Me<br />

on Armenien Street Ghaut, Cats &<br />

Humans Happily Living Together<br />

HAND DRAWN BATIK<br />

enang Batik Factory<br />

is a must-visit<br />

destination for<br />

those who love<br />

exploring culture.<br />

Nowadays, fewer<br />

and fewer people<br />

use hand drawn fabric since the<br />

textile industry is developing faster<br />

and faster. However, batik has always<br />

been an important heritage for<br />

Malaysians.<br />

I visited Penang Batik Factory one<br />

hot day, but the weather was nothing<br />

compared to the atmosphere inside<br />

the factory where workers and<br />

craftsman were melting beeswax.<br />

Established in 1973, Penang Batik<br />

Factory has specialized in traditional<br />

hand drawn batiks. In old times, only<br />

aristocrats and the wealthy could<br />

afford to wear batik outfits with their<br />

sophisticated patterns. Now, they<br />

use Batik to make everything from<br />

clothes, scarves, to bed sheets and<br />

table linens.<br />

To make Batik fabric, artisans use<br />

beeswax to embroider cloths. The<br />

embroidery stage is always done<br />

by the factory’s most skillful and<br />

experienced artisans. Artisans often<br />

use a tool like a small pipe with a<br />

wooden or metal handle to contain<br />

the moltened beeswax and needle<br />

like pen to draw sophisticated<br />

patterns and lines. After that, the<br />

fabric is dyed and dried before being<br />

soaked in a solvent to dissolve wax.<br />

The lines covered with wax are not<br />

dyed, creating batik’s signature<br />

white patterns. Artisans use printing<br />

plates, brushes, or even salt to create<br />

different patterns.<br />

Watching artisans sweat while<br />

meticulously moltening wax,<br />

drawing, and dying fabric, I know<br />

that batik is not merely a handicraft<br />

but art, a distinctive cultural symbol<br />

of Malaysia.<br />

Cendol is a favorite dessert for travelers in Malaysia,<br />

and it’s quite cheap at 2-3RM for a bowl. The<br />

sweet soup is made with pineapple rice flour<br />

jelly, coconut milk, and palm sugar. In some<br />

places, jelly, cream, or sticky rice is also added.<br />

What could be better than cooling down with a<br />

glass of cold cendol at noon or enjoying the dish<br />

while walking along the beach in the afternoon?<br />

ESCAPE THEME PARK,<br />

DARE YOU?<br />

About 25 minutes from George Town’s<br />

center is Escape Theme Park, one of the<br />

most special parks in Malaysia. We were<br />

excited to explore the park. Mr. Sim Choo<br />

Kheng, the park’s designer, immediately<br />

greeted us and guided our adventurous<br />

game experience there. After traditional<br />

childhood games like walking on trapeze<br />

wires, using stilts, practicing acrobatics,<br />

and climbing trees seemed to disappear,<br />

he decided to open a park where we could<br />

escape from our laptops, phones, and<br />

work to soak in nature.<br />

However, at Escape Theme Park, every<br />

game is developed to cultivate a new<br />

level of adventure. Before taking part in<br />

a game, you will be given an instruction<br />

clip, and there is always staff to check<br />

the safety equipment for you. If your<br />

kids want to swing from place to place<br />

like Tarzan, then bring them to Monkey<br />

Business to try a challenging selection<br />

of games at all levels. You will have a<br />

chance to hover (of course with safety<br />

belts), walk on a suspension bridge, or<br />

crawl through wheels hanging at high<br />

positions. However simple it sounds, you<br />

must finish the whole round of games<br />

and can’t go back (except for cases of<br />

force majeure). This game will help<br />

you strengthen your character, so you<br />

shouldn’t give up.<br />

Further information:<br />

ITINERARY:<br />

ü The easiest way is to fly<br />

from HCMC to Penang with<br />

AirAsia. AirAsia is the sole<br />

airline operating a direct<br />

route between HCMC and<br />

Penang. There are 4 roundtrip<br />

flights per week, on<br />

Monday, Wednesday, Friday,<br />

and Sunday. The flight time is<br />

about 1 hour and 40 minutes.<br />

AirAsia offers numerous<br />

programs to promote this<br />

new route in the last months<br />

of the year.<br />

EVENTS:<br />

ü Go Penang this summer<br />

and take part in the Durian<br />

Festival from June to July.<br />

Penang is home to the most<br />

delicious durians in Southeast<br />

Asia.<br />

There is also an area designed with<br />

containers for you to relax or go camping<br />

in the forest. This is a familiar place<br />

where students often go to practice and<br />

have fun in nature.<br />

One of the most fascinating rides at<br />

Escape Theme Park is free fall from15m<br />

or 20m. Unlike Bungee which lets you<br />

fall without stopping, this ride only drops<br />

for a few seconds before the rope lowers<br />

you to safety. Stand on top of the tower,<br />

take in the beauty of nature, and get ready<br />

to jump. Feel free to scream during this<br />

ride! You may be scared to look down,<br />

but embrace the adrenaline as you fall<br />

and be proud of yourself after finishing.<br />

All this excitement will make your trip<br />

unforgetable.<br />

travel<br />

When referring to<br />

Belgium, everyone<br />

tends to mention cities<br />

such as Brussels, LiÃge,<br />

or Bruges. Yet the<br />

name, Mechelen, seems<br />

unfamiliar. However,<br />

the city’s fascinating<br />

cultural heritage with<br />

its fabulous architecture<br />

from the Middle Ages<br />

and the April classical<br />

music festival make<br />

this hidden jewel well<br />

worth the visit.<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong> 127

YOU CAN EASILY ATTEND MUSIC EVENTS EVERY WEEKEND IN VARIOUS<br />

BELGIAN CITIES FROM ABOUT APRIL TO NOVEMBER.<br />

Mechelen is a small ancient city in the<br />

north of Belgium located on the 50km<br />

stretch between the Antwerp seaport<br />

and Brussels’ industrial axis. The<br />

main language is Dutch, but don’t<br />

worry, you can speak English here.<br />

Historical city<br />

Mechelen entered to the industrial<br />

age in the 19 th century. In 1835, the<br />

first railway in Europe linked Brussels<br />

with Mechelen, which became the<br />

central and most important part of<br />

the Belgian railway network. The city<br />

will take lots of time to explore since<br />

it contains around 336 buildings and<br />

monuments including 8 medieval<br />

Gothic and Baroque cathedrals. Make<br />

sure to check out St. Rumbold’s<br />

cathedral (Sint-Rombout’s kathedraal),<br />

which was built starting in the 13 th<br />

century. Its 97 meter tower up 514<br />

stairs will give you a great panoramic<br />

view of the city. There's nothing better<br />

than when you're standing at the top<br />

of the tower and seeing Mechelen with<br />

the clouds hovering around you.<br />

I loved visiting the Mechelen town<br />

houses from the 15 th century along<br />

with the clock tower and House De<br />

Clippel from the 16 th century. After<br />

walking along the surrounding streets,<br />

you ought to take the time to visit the<br />

Post office De Bayaert, which was<br />

built in the 12 th century and originally<br />

used as an overnight shelter for<br />

pilgrims. It was purchased by the<br />

city in the 14 th century and enlarged<br />

afterwards to serve as the Mechelen<br />

Town Hall, but now it’s the Central<br />

Post Office. Going downtown around<br />

Grote Markt , then visiting Margaret<br />

statue, De Nekker Park, Plankendael<br />

Park, museums, and the local markets<br />

around the square, I feel like I’m lost<br />

in a massive medieval studio. If you<br />

want to learn more about people’s<br />

lifestyle and have a good time, you<br />

can try sailing along the river from<br />

Haverwerf Dyle (Dijle) to the pier and<br />

observe the colorful riverside houses,<br />

Vismarkt (the fish market), and<br />

Grootbrug (the stone bridge).<br />

Get drunk on music<br />

and beer<br />

Belgium is a land of music festivals.<br />

You can easily attend music events<br />

every weekend in various Belgian<br />

cities from about April to November.<br />

The variety of genres ranging from<br />

pop, rock, electronic, classical,<br />

chamber music, and more makes<br />

the atmosphere festive and enjoyable<br />

for all tastes. Even in the villages<br />

and small towns, there are unique<br />

carnivals styled to their region. If you<br />

come to Belgium in the summer, you<br />

will enjoy the vibrant atmosphere with<br />

compelling musical performances,<br />

concerts, as well as meetings for<br />

performers to extend their chamber<br />

choir repertoires.<br />

In Mechelen, the hometown of famous<br />

composer Raymond Schroyens,<br />

you might especially enjoy the Van<br />

Vlaanderen Mechelen classical music<br />

festival from April 23 rd to May 15 th .<br />

The concerts take place at the Grote<br />

Markt, Manufactuur De Wit, and St.<br />

Rumbold Cathedral. There is also<br />

TENSO Days (mid-May), a series of<br />

professional courses aimed at helping<br />

young composers and conductors<br />

develop their skills. TENSO has been<br />

held in Berlin, Paris, Marseille, Oslo,<br />

and Amsterdam. <strong>2016</strong> will be the third<br />

edition held in Mechelen. Apart from<br />

the Belgian artists, you will find artists<br />

from around the world.<br />

Itinerary:<br />

ü From Vietnam, you<br />

can take the straight flight<br />

to Belgium (Brussels) with<br />

Vietnam Airlines or other<br />

airlines. If you are from<br />

Paris, you can travel with<br />

Megabus or Ouibus to<br />

Brussels for a cheap price<br />

around 20 euro/turn in 5<br />

hours or take Bla Bla Car<br />

with a similar price but the<br />

time will be shorter. Then<br />

from Brussels, you will<br />

have some options:<br />

ü Buy train tickets from<br />

Brussels Centraal or<br />

Brussels Midi station only<br />

4.50 - 7 euro/turn to<br />

Mechelen in 25 minutes.<br />

ü From Brussels Airport,<br />

take the bus De Lijn (282,<br />

681, 682, 683) with 2<br />

times/hour and the price<br />

is 3 euro/turn. The time is<br />

around 50 minutes.<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>

While you’re<br />

listening to<br />

music, beer<br />

is the good<br />

choice.<br />

While you’re listening to music, would you prefer to drink wine or beer? In<br />

France, people would think of wine, but in Belgium, beer is the good choice. My<br />

friend introduced to me Gouden Carolus, a fruity beer which has been extremely<br />

popular here since the 16 th century. Gouden Carolus, brewed at Het Anker<br />

brewery, won the gold medal at the World Beer Awards in 2010. The bitter-sweet<br />

taste is complimented with figs and raisins which lend a malty caramel flavor. I<br />

also encountered beers such as Bush Blonde Triple and Bush Prestige.<br />

To make the music and beer more perfect, you can also choose from a selection of<br />

over 300 Belgian cheeses from blue cheese (Grevenbroecker and Bio Bleu) to goat<br />

cheese (Chevrin, Cabiolait, and Keiems Bloempje) or enjoy with fries, called fritkot<br />

or frituur, from the small shops.<br />

After spending the day visiting the city, a relaxing evening listening to jazz in a<br />

Gothic style restaurant will make you wish to stop the time and reflect on your<br />

journey in Europe.<br />

Although I had only few days in Mechelen, I was greeted with so much friendliness<br />

and sincerity from the people here. When I arrived at the station and was waiting<br />

for my friend to pick me up, there was a young girl who stopped and talked with<br />

me about life in Mechelen because she had guessed that I was a traveler. She was<br />

willing to wait with me until my friend arrived. She shared with me some cakes<br />

and introduced something about the life and people here. When you travel alone in<br />

the cold, dreary European weather, very warm human affection like this makes you<br />

believe in the goodness of people, no matter where you are from.<br />

This summer, if you want to get away from the bustling cities and relax while<br />

exploring new things in Europe, then Mechelen awaits you.<br />

Transportation:<br />

ü The easy ways to<br />

discover the city are<br />

walking or by bike.<br />

Bicycle rentals average<br />

at around10 euro/day.<br />

You can find one at<br />

Fietspunt (except during<br />

weekends) or Provinciaal<br />

Sport - en Recreatiecetrum<br />

De Nekker (including<br />

weekends and holidays).<br />

ü Accommodation: You<br />

can check out hotels<br />

or hostels via www.<br />

booking.comor find<br />

native friends’ home-stays<br />

with www.couchsurfing.<br />

com or through any other<br />

website. Additionally,<br />

the hostels like “Auberge<br />

de Jeunesse” are quite<br />

popular in Europe and a<br />

good choice for you.<br />

Food and drink<br />

ü You should enjoy<br />

the delicious meals at<br />

Gasthof Kwaadmechelan,<br />

Theatrium Mechelen, or<br />

at the small restaurants<br />

around the center. Try<br />

some beer at Hankeef<br />

- the oldest pub or at a<br />

small bar with jazz music<br />

around Korenmarkt and<br />

Begijnenstraat streets. In<br />

summer, there is a simple<br />

dish with a great taste that<br />

will surprise you, steamed<br />

white asparagus served<br />

with a butter sauce with<br />

parsley and diced egg<br />

yolk. As for drinks, I have<br />

always prioritized hot<br />

chocolate, as Belgium<br />

is a country famous for<br />

chocolate with brand<br />

names such as Callebaut,<br />

CÙte d'Or, Leonidas,<br />

Guylian, and Godiva.<br />

THE CAPITAL OF MALAYSIA WITH ITS<br />

LUXURIOUS SHOPPING MALLS AND COLORFUL<br />

MARKET STALLS HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HOT<br />

DESTINATION FOR SHOPAHOLICS.<br />

Text: Thuy An<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong> 133

WALKING AROUND AND TRYING<br />

THE FOOD IS NOT ENOUGH, AS<br />

NEGLECTING TO PERUSE THE<br />

SHOPPING MALLS IN KUALA<br />

LUMPUR IS TO IGNORE THE SOUL<br />

OF THE CITY.<br />

134<br />

entices me with everything ranging<br />

from the locals’ lifestyle and cuisine<br />

to its picturesque riverside roads.<br />

However, walking around and trying<br />

the food is not enough, as neglecting<br />

to peruse the shopping malls in<br />

Kuala Lumpur is to ignore the soul<br />

of the city.<br />

Guided by a Malaysian friend, I have<br />

an exciting shopping hunt in the<br />

bustling heart of Kuala Lumpur. We<br />

began in the early morning covering<br />

the three most famous shopping<br />

streets Bukit Bintang, Jalan<br />

Ampang, and Jalan Tuanku Abdul<br />

Rahman, before finishing in the late<br />

afternoon. My hunt was quite tiring<br />

but full of excitement. We start at<br />

Suria KLCC within the Petronas<br />

Towers. This is a place where<br />

visitors can find premium name<br />

brands such as Chanel, Alexander<br />

McQueen, Dior Homme, and more.<br />

LRT station is at the foot of the mall<br />

so you can take the monorail to<br />

Bukit Bintang - the shopping Mecca<br />

of Kuala Lumpur.<br />

Bukit Bintang is home to a<br />

multitude of shopping malls such as<br />

Pavilion with 8 separate shopping<br />

areas, Fahrenheit 88 with Bookxcess<br />

which sells books at the lowest<br />

prices in Malaysia, Low Yat Plaza - a<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong><br />

paradise of technological devices or<br />

rare products, and Berjaya Times<br />

Squares with luxurious red carpets<br />

and high-end boutiques.<br />

Leaving the complex of shopping<br />

malls, we take the monorail to Jalan<br />

Tuanku Abdul Rahman - an 1.7km<br />

shopping road with many retail<br />

shops. The road teams with colors<br />

from the blue and yellow houses to<br />

the textile shops draped in radiant<br />

cloths and gorgeous traditional<br />

costumes. You can learn about<br />

traditional Malaysian commercial<br />

culture by visiting old fashion<br />

shops such as Harison or Gulati’s<br />

Silk House. They are located just<br />

outside of SOGO, Malaysia's largest<br />

department store. However, the 10-<br />

floor giant is a host to a multitude of<br />

other shops.<br />

The central market is a must see for<br />

those who want to understand more<br />

about Kuala Lumpur’s traditional<br />

culture and trading practices. This<br />

beautiful market showcases its<br />

influences from Indian, Malaysian,<br />

and Chinese culture with their<br />

souvenir, food, and handicraft stalls.<br />

I concluded my fantastic hunt with<br />

a delicious meal at Precious Old<br />

China. The dishes at this restaurant<br />

are great examples of how Chinese<br />

cuisine and Malaysia can blend<br />

harmoniously. An intimate space<br />

with fine däcor and food is all you<br />

need to relax after a long day of<br />

hunting.<br />

With tired feet and my skin turning<br />

pink on account of the hot weather,<br />

I brought my amazing day to a<br />

close. I’ve explored the soul of Kuala<br />

Lumpur - a favorite modern corner<br />

in this city.<br />

It’s not easy for first time travelers<br />

here to embark on a shopping hunt<br />

like me. Therefore, I would like to<br />

suggest some must-see places for<br />

your shopping experience in the<br />

capital of Malaysia.<br />

FOR BOOK-LOVERS<br />

Kinokuniya Suria KLCC is<br />

one of the largest businesses in<br />

Southeast Asia of Kinokuniya<br />

established in 1982. This bookstore<br />

is home to more than 300,000<br />

books written in English, Japanese,<br />

Chinese, and Malay. If you love<br />

Japanese culture, Kinokuniya is a<br />

paradise full of English translations<br />

of Japanese novels and manga.<br />

Kinokuniya, the 4 th floor, Suria KLCC.<br />

Junk Book Store, located near<br />

the central market, is the biggest<br />

and oldest used book store in<br />

love the narrow walkways with<br />

high bookshelves with of every

genre from novels, magazines, and<br />

detective stories to picture books<br />

and comics. Though the books at<br />

Junk Book Store are quite old, their<br />

quality is quite high and they are<br />

sold at very reasonable prices.<br />

FABRIC AND HANDICRAFTS<br />

The central market is a<br />

world of Malaysian handicrafts<br />

and cuisine. The market is divided<br />

into 3 areas for Indian, Chinese,<br />

and Malay merchants. Each area<br />

offers signature goods designed in<br />

distinctive styles. Prepare enough<br />

money since it’s hard to refuse some<br />

pretty handicrafts like wood carvings,<br />

bracelets, and colorful Batik textiles.<br />

Jalan Hang Kasturi, 50050 Kuala Lumpur,<br />

Vietjet Air is going to open a<br />

new flight route from HCMC<br />

to Taiwan and Malaysia.<br />

Accordingly, the Ho Chi<br />

Minh City - Tainan City route<br />

will operate every Monday,<br />

Wednesday, Thursday and<br />

Saturday from June 22 nd , with<br />

about three hours and 15<br />

minutes per leg. The airline will<br />

also increase flight frequency<br />

between Ho Chi Minh City<br />

and Taipei from one round<br />

trip per day to twice from June<br />

18 th , <strong>2016</strong> with flight time of<br />

3 hours 25 minutes per leg.<br />

The Ho Chi Minh City - Kuala<br />

Lumpur route will run from<br />

SINGAPORE<br />

Starting from 20 April<br />

<strong>2016</strong>, ICA is progressively<br />

introducing the BioScreen<br />

system at the passenger<br />

halls of the sea and land<br />

checkpoints. With BioScreen,<br />

travelers six and above using<br />

the manned counters at<br />

immigration checkpoints will<br />

be required to scan both their<br />

thumbprints upon arrival and<br />

departure. Implementing the<br />

BioScreen system will allow<br />

the authorities to verify the<br />

identity of each traveler and<br />

spot potential security risks as<br />

early as possible.<br />

TOUR DE VIETNAM<br />

"Tour de Vietnam" will be<br />

broadcast at 7 :50pm on<br />

SCTV12 channel and at 12:00<br />

on NetViet (VTV10) from<br />

Monday to Saturday. "Tour de<br />

Vietnam" is a tourist television<br />

series introducing Vietnam's<br />

tourist attractions, tangible and<br />

intangible cultural heritages,<br />

superb cuisine, as well as<br />

the country's long-standing<br />

traditions. "Tour de Vietnam"<br />

is expected to provide<br />

information on Vietnam's<br />

tourism for more than 50<br />

million TV subscribers around<br />

the world, contributing to<br />

promote Vietnamese tourism.<br />

THAILAND<br />

The Thai Government is<br />

attempting to prevent "zero<br />

price" tours and groups coming<br />

to this country for a low price.<br />

Very cheap tours supposedly<br />

ruin the images of Thailand<br />

as visitors consider Thailand<br />

a cheap place while the<br />

government wishes to attract<br />

more high-class travelers.<br />

The Thai Government will<br />

introduce more tours at<br />

reasonable prices for visitors<br />

from China, Korea, Russia, and<br />

other countries. Cheaper tours<br />

will be prohibited.<br />

JAPAN<br />

Japan will test a system that<br />

enables visitors to have their<br />

identities verified and buy things<br />

from shops by stamping their<br />

finger when their card details<br />

have been processed. This<br />

system will encourage visitors<br />

from abroad in the lead up to<br />

the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and<br />

Paralympic Games. As well as<br />

making the tourism process<br />

more streamlined, the data<br />

received will be used to help<br />

Japanese ministers understand<br />

spending habits and locations<br />

when visitors arrive. Tokyobased<br />

Aeon Bank are set to<br />

finalise thier system whereby<br />

people will be able to withdraw<br />

cash with a fingerprint.<br />
