Beautiful Rock

admin — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 21:09:52 +0000

Have you ever imagined seeing a “beautiful rock” in your entire life?? Beatiful Rock is what Bellaroca means in Italian, but here in the Philippines, it is a mesmerizing island resort and spa exclusively perched along the natural contours of Elephant Island off Marinduque’s southwestern tip– an exquisite sculpture of nature and man-made collaboration. Every bit of this place has been designed to be a playground for the rich and the famous! No one can get into this spanking island-resort other than by reservation or invitation. I wished to visit the place sooner, but I guess it would be impossible because I don’t know anyone who’s rich and famous! I think it would always remain a dream. But no one can argue with that dream, for dreaming is absolutely free!

Even though my trip to Seoul is still a dream to be pursued, I already fed myself with a lot of information about Seoul. And I discovered the top ten things that one should do in Seoul to feed all one’s senses as one explores the city.

1. Enjoy sight seeing at Nami Island.
2. Have a tour to Shinheungsa Temple, by cable car, at Mt. Sorak
3. Proceed to the Strawberry Farm and experience picking and enjoy the fruits of your labor– Giant Starwberries!!
4. See how limchi is made and try on hanbok (Korean costume)
5. Visit the Everlan themepark
6. Enjoy a Jump Performance
7. Stay up all night to go mall hopping and shopping at Myeongdong and Dongdaemun
8. Take a Korean gastronomic adventure. Try their street foods, bulgogi and bibimbap.
9. Walk down Chaonggyecheon river, listen to performers and spray grafitti on the walls
10. Lastly, Go to Insandong for a traditional and contemporary art tour.

Dream Destination: Seoul

When we travel for pleasure, we choose destinations based on what we want. Choices usually revolve around landscapes we want to capture with their scenes and memories; beautiful beaches to bask on and soak up the sun; bustling cities with interesting people; places with historical significance; and melting pots of culture and art to revive the aesthetic senses. Everyone has their dream destination like Hollywood in California, Tokyo and Paris. But I personally wanted to go to the land known for celadon and kimchi, something that is a different adventure: to step inside a fan fantasy. And that destination is none other than, Seoul.

Baguio’s Largest Pizza

Baguio City aims to lure tourists this month of September by producing the largest pizza for visitors on September 12, this year. This project is planned and to be conducted by the tourism stakeholder of such city. Their plan is to display the pizza at the SM entertainment plaza in the morning and it will be partaken in the afternoon by all the visitors of the venue. The proposed size of the pizza was 25-feet in diameter. That’s quite huge right?! How I wish I could be there to have a big bite on their largest pizza!!
