Stunning coral reefs and turquoise waters perfect for windsurfing have made Hurghada, on Egypt's Red Sea Coast, a busy resort town. Within easy reach of the stunning Giftun Islands and the Eastern Arabian Desert, Hurghada has seen enormous amounts of development in the past decade—and yes, it does seem overrun with tourists at times. But it’s a relatively easy beach escape for Europeans, and some of the world's best diving and snorkeling sites are just offshore. Walk or catch a cab to explore the old quarter, El Dahar.

Nestled on the southern tip of the Gulf of Tadjoura, the seaside capital of Djibouti is a modest harbor town and a major port of trade and travel via Ethiopia and other points in Africa, especially as the terminus for the Djibouti-Addis Ababa Railway. Beaches along the eastern shore provide some respite from the blistering heat, while the chaotic central market is alive with activity throughout the day.

奈洛比又稱為非洲自然狩獵的首都，是一座活力充沛、現代化的城市，從這裡開始體驗野生動物的生活與夜生活，是最適合不過的開始。在這個過去的馬賽集水區，充斥著人們隨著音樂擺動的舞廳、商店與市場的喧囂，還有會誘惑味覺的各種餐廳。最佳的景點包括凱倫博物館 (Karen Blixen Museum)、長頸鹿中心與奈洛比國家公園的黑犀牛。在這個小型的市中心內步行相當安全，而其他地方則可搭的士前往。

Mombasa, with a population of 900,000, is no sleepy seaside village. Its beachfront hotels appeal to travellers in search of sun, sand and surf, while its Arab, Indian and colonial European heritage makes for a wide variety of sights to see. Can't find a taxi? Travel by tuk-tuk, a three-wheeled auto rickshaw.

The “little nest” of Kenmare is part of the famed Ring of Kerry, making it a prime stop for a spot of lunch and a pint. But before you go on your merry way, check out the area’s Bronze Age stone circle, one of the largest in southwest Ireland.

這個昔日的英屬殖民要塞見證了兩千多年的住民遺跡，從頹圮的廢墟以至維多利亞時期的建築瑰寶可見，建築風格多變且華麗。活躍熱情的節慶與生氣勃勃的藝術社區、喧嚷嘈雜的市場和人潮絡繹不絕的廟宇，雖然讓這座城市顯得髒亂，但卻又充滿無限生機。

People visit Surat Thani because it's the gateway to so much of Thailand's beauty, especially its Gulf Coast islands.

美味點心、島嶼還有獨特的城市天際線，就是香港的獨特魅力所在。想要看看傳統的中式建築，那麼去昂坪市集準沒錯。逛完市集之後，你可乘搭電車到太平山山頂，欣賞無與倫比的美景。南蓮園池的石陣以及平緩的丘陵，能平息你的煩躁心情。不妨也到赤柱咖啡廳喝杯茶，也同樣具有平緩心情的效果。在靜諡的志蓮淨苑細細品味四周景色，相信你一定也能體會出佛教的禪理。
