China’s third-largest city is the capital of Guangdong Province and a thriving commercial center. Its location on the Pearl River and proximity to Hong Kong has made Guangzhou a strategic port for centuries. Glimpse old temples and gleaming steel towers on an architectural tour. Visit one of four Chimelong theme parks for thrills and chills. Once called Canton, Guangzhou is considered the home of traditional (read Cantonese) “Chinese food.” Foodies will find more restaurants per capita here than anywhere else in China.

Among its many tourist attractions, Taichung offers a downtown shopping experience similar to that of Tokyo or Manhattan, a bustling nightlife, and a cuisine to please even the pickiest palate. Travellers come to this city to feast their eyes on the temples, markets, parks, and museums. Touring families often visit the Taichung National Museum of Natural Science to marvel over the exhibits or the Feng Chia night market to purchase local goods. But perhaps what Taichung is known for the most is Bubble tea, the most famous beverage in the region.

金黃色的宮殿、水上市場、雄偉的圓形陶瓷屋頂…這不就是夢幻仙境了嗎？ 不，這是泰國的首都曼谷，共分成 50 區。你可以前水門或暹羅廣場瘋狂購物，然後再去 Dusit 的歐式花園好好放鬆一下。Thon Buri 最知名的就是鄭王廟 (Wat Arun)，如果想到臥佛寺 (Wat Pho) 參觀大臥佛，就要去 Phra Nakhon。你亦可以在參觀大皇宮 (Grand Palace) 之前，先去路邊攤買一盤芒果糯米，邊吃邊欣賞建築之美。

華欣 (Hua Hin) 深受曼谷居民喜愛，是一處美麗的海濱度假勝地。這裡沒有喧囂的通宵派對，適合一家大細渡假，或想要放鬆身心的旅客。亦因為這裡氣氛恬靜，這裡的海灘最適合讓旅客沉殿心靈、安靜享受。華欣過去只是一個小漁港，之後搖身一變，成為皇室欽點的度假村，亦正因如此，華欣仍能保有寧靜、悠閒的小鎮風情，不至於淪落為一般庸俗的觀光城市。

科代卡納 (Kodaikanal) 是灰斑巨松鼠這種瀕臨絕種動物的棲息地。單是這個原因，就值得我們造訪。盤踞於將近海拔 7,000 英尺的帕拉尼丘陵 (Palani Hills) 南側頂峰的茂密森林之下，這座熱門的湖濱度假勝地早已是大自然愛好者的天堂。你可以一邊漫步於寧靜平和的山坡上，一邊留意各種鳥類、奇花異草，當然還有灰斑巨松鼠啦。

Want to make your co-workers insanely jealous? Just casually drop "I’m holiday making in the Maldives this year" into conversation, preferably in the dead of winter. Or better yet, go there without mentioning it to anyone—then send them a "Wish you were here!" postcard.
