i have stayed at this hotel with 2 of my friends from 27th/Oct-29th/Oct. We found this hotel while we were walking to embassies district. We did not have any reservation, so we asked from receptionists were on duty about any rooms available for 3 of us. They offered the rate which was very flexible for that time and let us check in kindly so fast. it was our first time in Beijing, so we did not know how we should go to embassy and how we can charge our Chinese phone number. For my experience of previous hotel, staffs do not speak in English, fortunately there was female receptionist /Danny/ she helped us a lot and charged our phone units. She was so kind and helpful like real hospitality staff. Last night of the stay at hotel, we tried several choice of cocktails at STIR cocktail bar, we really enjoyed all of the cocktails we ordered and it was great to see how they made it from their heart and taste it. Also the day when we checked out there was one male receptionist kindly let us check out at 3PM with good rate. i would definitely offer and stay at here again if i come to Beijing again. #lover'smilestone #uniquehotel #ancientlandmark #happylaborday #themepark#zoo#nationalpark#lakes

Kildonan Park has been part of our city as long as I can remember. It is populated with beautiful old trees that provide shade on a hot summer day. The gardens are always beautifully planted and are stunning. Weddings may be booked in this area. The park has a restaurant that is well attended called the Prairie's Edge and is open year round. This is also the home of Rainbow Stage, the city's summer outdoor covered theatre hosting two perfomances each summer. Picnic areas abound and walking and biking trails are well manicured.. This park borders the Red River on on the east side and is a busy place, so get there early. Parking lots and street parking can be found all around the circuits. #happylaborday #lanternshow #themepark#zoo#nationalpark#lakes#beaches

We went in the morning and had planned to go to Nature Playground - a very unique playground with a water play area (wasn’t working at the time unfortunately), rubber paved hills with a wall climbing apparatus, balls, long slide, swings, net-type climbing structures, and musical type structures off to the side. Walking paths around the park are great. We took a break and had a snack near the family duck pond. The various gardens are all attached and shaded just a short distance from Nature Playground. Plenty of parking available although I’m sure that would be different if there were events going on. Bathrooms near the duck pond were frequently cleaned. The pavilion has 3 levels of art galleries. It was a nice quiet place to cool off during the heat. Kids and adults enjoyed it. We spent half a day between the playground, paths, gardens and pavilion and would definitely visit again #happynewyear #happylaborday #naturaloxygenbar #themepark#zoo#nationalpark#lakes#beaches

Organized as a long bar that faces the water to the west, the Camden Hills to the north and untouched berry bushes and fern meadows to the east, it includes a main house, a small guest house, and a custom designed fully screened porch that links the two. This porch, which creates a shared exterior room and frames views to the ocean and landscape, extends the profile of the roofline to tie the two houses together. The screen porch system was especially designed by the architects for this setting to take advantage of the beauty of Maine's evenings, perfect for long conversations with family and friends, late dinners and stargazing, but within a protective screened enclosure. The screens are removed seasonally, leaving only the slender metal frame in the winter. The exterior of the house is clad in silvery cedar shingles that were locally crafted in a small, family-run mill in Maine. #happylaborday #themepark#zoo#lakes#beaches

The Exchange at 100 Federal Street is a living room for Boston’s Financial District. An informal place for meeting, collaborating, and sharing, the space captivates professionals, tourists, and locals alike with its reinvigorated public realm embedded in the heart of the city. . The Exchange replaces an underperforming, wind-swept plaza, and gives it new life with a luminous space that instills a feeling of working outside—without one’s papers blowing away. Elongated, wooden community tables become social condensers for writing e-mails, informal meetings, or bumping into colleagues. This sensation of outdoor living is reinforced by material and furniture palettes which draw the exterior environment into the space, resulting in a unified landscape and building design connecting material and form. . The prismatic form of the building connects it with the angular geometry of the tower from which it unfolds. Faces of polished stone facet into polished glass, reflecting the surrounding city, park, and sky in unexpected and changing ways. As the origami-like envelope folds to adapt to the triangular site, the exposed steel structural grid becomes increasingly dynamic as its structural geometry makes manifest the generative folding operations. The resultant energetic structural form has quickly become a vibrant and iconic place at the center of Boston’s Post Office Square. #happylaborday #ancientlandmark #themepark#zoo#nationalpark#lakes

For the Amager Resource Center, BIG proposed a new breed of waste-to-energy plant, one that is economically, environmentally, and socially profitable. Instead of considering Amager Resource Center as an isolated object, we mobilized the architecture and intensify the relationship between the building and the city — expanding the existing activities in the area by turning the roof of the new Amager Resource Center into a ski slope for the citizens of Copenhagen. The new plant establishes Amager Resource Center as an innovator on an urban scale, redefining the relationship between the waste plant and the city. It will be both iconic and integrated, a destination in itself, and a reflection on the progressive vision of the company. . Instead of considering the new Amagerforbraending as an isolated architectural object, the façade is conceived as an opportunity for the local context while forming it into a destination in itself and a reflection on the progressive vision of the company. The roof of the new Amagerforbraending is turned into a 31 000 m2 ski slope of varying levels for the citizens of Copenhagen, its neighboring municipalities and visitors, mobilizying the architecture and redefining the relationship between the waste plant and the city by expanding the existing activities in the area. into a new breed of waste-to-energy plant, one that is economically, environmentally, and socially profitable. #happylaborday #ancientlandmark #themepark#zoo#nationalpark#lakes

The Ritz-indoor Carlton's swimming pool is located on the top level of Hong Kong's International Commerce Centre. The beauty of Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour shines through its bottom-to-ceiling glass windows, making this infinity pool yet another must-see for Hongkongers. 144 LED panels cover the walls and ceilings, creating the illusion of coral reefs and bright blue skies, almost as if you're out on the open sea with the sun glinting off the ocean. #choicehomestay#popularswing#happylaborday#tripinspired#europeanarchitecture#bestislandtraveltowns#beaches#infinitypool

Jennin Backpackers Guesthouse is another inexpensive guesthouse in Vang Vieng. Dorm rooms start at $3.00 per night, including breakfast, at this establishment. Perfect for budget tourists, with relatively affordable lodgings (one of the cheapest on this list). My only criticism is that some (but not all) of the bunk beds available have three levels. I understand that this isn't an issue for other individuals, but it is for me. Jennin Backpackers Guesthouse serves a delicious breakfast and has well-equipped social rooms, making it ideal for meeting new people (there is even a pool). The helpful staff would gladly assist you with any tours or subsequent travel arrangements. #happylaborday#summervacationtravel#tripinspired#summervacation#hotelstay#urbanexplorer

Real Vang Vieng Backpacker Hostel is the place to go for budget visitors who just want a basic place to sleep and aren't concerned with anything spectacular.

The staff would gladly assist you in arranging for onward transportation and obtaining bus tickets. You can also dine at the on-site restaurant, which serves a variety of Western and Vietnamese dishes. #happylaborday#bestislandtraveltowns#summervacation#hikingtrails#hotelstay#urbanexplorer

On the Bolaven Plateau in Pakse you can also hike going to the Tad Pha Suam falls, drop over a horseshoe-shaped cliff into a wide pool six meters below. Visitors travel 33 kilometers from Pakse to the falls, passing through lush woodlands and through an old bamboo bridge. The Houai Campi River, which starts in the Salvanh province and runs continuously throughout the year, even during the dry season, feeds the falls. #happylaborday#waterfall#naturalwonders#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Namsan Seoul Tower was the first tower type tourism spot in Korea. The top of the tower is at almost 480 meters above sea level, including Namsan Mountain and the towers own height making it one of the tallest tower in Asia. It is comprised of Seoul Tower Plaza and N Seoul Tower. It has become one of the representative landmarks and multi-cultural venues in Seoul. Surprisingly the tower is visible while I am in the Changdeokgung Palace. Zoom in and the tower will reward you with a beautiful background. Sometimes the best trip is a candid shot. #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #besttrip

The best trip in Davao is the trip to Samal Island hopping! Your tour begins when your driver picks you up at your accommodation in Davao City and take you to Sta. Ana Wharf. Or be in Sta. Ana Wharf by yourself. Here, you will be transferred to a boat that will take you to the island of Samal. The best way to experience this is joining in a tour. A lot of agency tours is available in the area. The best spot for snorkeling is in Angel’s Cove and Coral Garden which it offers the perfect view of the rich marine biodiversity of Samal.The trip as a bonus, includes the sightseeing sessions at the posh Pearl Farm Beach Resort, and Malipano Island! I loved the view. With just 20USD you will experience this awesome trip. Truly one of the best. When the pandemic is over try to experience Samal Island tour too. #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #besttrip

How do you describe your best trip? How memorable your best trip is? I am sure it is all special in many ways and it is worth remembering. Best trips sometimes or often so ordinary. Sometimes it is so simple just like mine. And many times best trips that you made solo rocks. Simply because you made it on your own. Your own preferences and bucket lists. In short your dream destinations. I am so lucky that I have come to experience and appreciate the nature beauty of Eden Park in Davao. The park is wide and offers a lot of fun and exciting experiences. When you love nature you will definitely appreciate this place. The fresh, cool crisp mountain air is so rewarding. Spectacular views of trees blends well in the refreshing surroundings. It here I have experience the fresh harvest of mangosteens. How cool is that? Truly nature has it's beauty. #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #besttrip

Within Tongji University there’s a great coffee shop you must visit. This adorable campus shop gives you the option to work or read with soft music, homey ambience and nice coffee. Tongji House is also a gift shop for Tongji University souvenirs. This place is mostly frequented by students or alumni, to held study meetings or hang out. For the few in-campus options to get coffee, Tongji House it’s by far the best location. Additionally, Tongji House is said to give a proportion of its earnings for university/alumni’s outreach and inreach projects. Personally, I’ll always prefer those shops/enterprises with clear social responsibility. Big plus if they have good coffee. And grant you a quiet place to study, with nice ambience and free WiFi. 📍Tongji University, 25 meters from main entrance. 1290 Siping Road.

Recently, Okada Bakery opened its doors in Zhangwu road. Only a few minutes walk from Tongji University, you can find this cute coffee shop. What’s interesting is that remains open even when most shops in the area are already closed. Coffee is good, although had to take mine to go. This is an ideal place for coffee lovers looking a safe corner to work late, coming back from dinner/drinking or just to enjoy a nice cup of coffee at any moment of the day. Always prefer those coffee shops that grind your coffee right before brewing it. The sign captivated my attention, place invited me in and I got what I ordered: “A hug in a cup”. Perfect for these windy/chilly nights. 📍Zhangwu Road #urbanexplorer #coffee #coffeeshop #coffeelover #happylaborday #university #nightlife #cityoverlook #shanghai #shanghaistyle #shanghaidelicacies

Klayar Beach is resides in Donorojo district, Pacitan Regency. It is about 35 km towards west Pacitan city. It can reach about 60 minutes from the city. Many rockies like spink in Mesir are settled in this beach. Klayar with its dune has a distinctive feature from another. Its waves dashed against the rock spourting from the hole make sound like a bamboo flute. The springkling of waves rush to the beach and out through the hole spurting about 7 meters high and has a sound like blowing bamboo flute. Klayar Beach has charming beauty. This beach is really natural for not many people that coming to this beach. Klayar beach is very silent; you can even hear the wind that blows and enjoying the nuance around the beach. Klayar beach can be regarded as the beach that suitable for surfing. At certain times, the waves that exist are very suitable for surfing. In addition, the bluish panoramic and white sandy beach will pamper your to stay longer at this place. #beachvacation #urbanexplorer #happylaborday

Pipaman Zhichi Gusu restaurant in Wujiaochang is one of my favorites for Chinese food. Gastronomy offered transports you around different regions of China, with a very traditional ambience and the great option of enjoying your dinner inside a “ship”. Each dish is presented with a particular esthetic, some of them are as delicious as they look. My favorite by far, and the reason why I frequently visit this restaurant, is the matcha jelly dish. The sour jelly mixed with that sweet black sauce makes my mouth to water just by thinking in it. Haven’t found this dish anywhere else. I have been told is part of Shanghai’s local cuisine. The start-looking noodles have great flavor, and look so cute! Likewise, the fermented rice drink is quite special. Reminds me of the ‘chicha’ fermented drinks you can get in Latin America. This place is always better to enjoy in group. 📍 Xinjiangwancheng Residential District Husong Road No.8 Wujiaochang Bailian Youyicheng 7 Building, Yangpu #dessert #shanghai #shanghaistyle #shanghaicuisine #citylife #shanghaidelicacies #shanghaitravel #restaurant #eventcelebration #urbanexplorer #chinalife #chinesesnack #foodieheaven #foodie #foodietrip #foodlovers #foodlover #food #drinks #weekendrecommendations #weekend #saturday #nightlife #nightmood #happylaborday #happyhour #cityoverlook#springblossoms

Colca is a very nice place to visit for a romantic dinner or just to chill with friends. There is a particular mix of flavors very relatable to Peruvian cuisine, yet many dishes have that Mediterranean-related cuisine. Ambience is fancy, yet calming. Food is very tasty. Peruvian food is worldly known for its seafood gastronomy. The ceviches has a unexpected presentation, yet flavor was the one we came seeking for. Nice surprise (for me at least) to find roasted corn snack in our ceviche. Although not authentic, reminded me of my Costa Rican childhood and our ‘caldosas’. Fresh, warm bread was offered on the house. Very nice touch. Not only with the butter, but you can try it with the ceviche’s tiger’s milk (leche de tigre, local name of the sauce you add). 📍 Hengshan Road No.199 Yongpingli F2 (Kaojin Hengshan Road No.4 Subway Entrance & Exit 1), Xuhui 🔅Location of these building complex is located just outside metro exit, perfect for those like me that prefer to move around without cars. #shanghaistyle #shanghai #shanghaidelicacies #urbanexplorer #foodieheaven #foodlovers #food #foodie #foodietrip #peru #peruviancuisine #mediterranean #happylaborday #citiesatnight #citylife #cityoverlook#easylife

Beautiful beach which is quiet in day and slowly comes alive with cooler temperatures offering numerous water activities. We did try n swim as a number of people were getting in however left after number of people spotted jellyfish. Nice place to be in the evening lying n enjoying the starry night or the fire shows done by different groups. Soft sand beach has but a few rocks to fear. Pending on time of the day and season beach lovers abound, but still plenty open space to have a private moment. Food and drinks can be found here but I suggest to take your own and kick back or go jogging for miles. Taxis plenty and willing to take you, transportation is no problem, so head out to Cenang Beach and have fun Highly recommended #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #beachvacation

Was very much impressed by the clear waters and beautiful skyline. I’m glad to have traveled the extra miles to Tanjong Rhu Beach and parked at the place beside Four Seasons Hotel which probably shared the same pristine beach and view. A local restaurant makes sure you can get your stomach full and a bar with bigbags and beach chairs plays some music and serves food for a normal price. Highly recommend if you only need the beach. No jetski, parasailing, banana. Signs say not to swim due to undercurrent however quite a few people in the water although not out deep. Nice beach bar for cold beer and snacks. Enjoyed our time here, view from beach is very scenic and beautiful. #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #beachvacation

A small beautiful beach that was well worth a visit, especially in the morning. There is plenty of shade under the trees, the water is clear and there were very people at the time we visited. Bring your snacks and water (there was nothing sold in sight when we went there). The most awesome beach on the island. Totally private. Maybe due to the season. Hardly any crowd at all. Just a few loving couples. Small little beach with fine powdery sand. Water was clean and clear. And warm. You can just swim all day. We spend the whole afternoon there. There were several trees that provided nice shade from the scorching sun. #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #beachvacation

I like this place a lot but during island hopping only 1hour is allowed to spend time here. It is best place to capture photos and you feel very close to the nature. Beach view is so enjoyable with white sand beach and clear water. Now they have other beach activities as well for tourist. Monkeys are so mischievous and they are point of attraction for the tourists. Be careful not to leave food in your bag when you are swimming. Saw one of the monkeys get into a bag, take out the food container, remove the lid,and run off with all the biscuits. It was a nice sandy beach where you can swim or snorkel if you wish but not many fishes can be seen. A perfect place to have a picnic with family and relax in a hot day. Maybe next time we'll have that perfect moment. #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #beachvacation

If you prefer a quiet beach without many activities, yet with fine sand and clean water, you cannot find a better beach in Penang area. There are 3 resorts on the beach, but the beach is public and there are not many people there. Wide open spaces, grassy knowles alongside the road, shady trees and far less touts for jetskiing, paragliding, etc. Sand is spotless and you can really enjoy your swim or relax on the beach. No great food or cafe options beachside are the only thing missing. One cannot swim in the sea though as there's jellyfish warnings up. There's parasailing and banana boats for those who are interested. It was nice to watch them. #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #beachvacation

There seems to be a legend that the place was burnt to get rid of enemy attack leaving the sand black. But, actually its black coz of Volcanic activity. The view was spectacular, I loved this beach better than Cenang Beach. This place looks awesome in photos. There are no water sports or any activities available here. There are couple of restaurants and shopping places. I have been to may beaches but this was the first time I was at a black sand beach. One just admire the beauty of the beach and nature. Also the place is not crowded at all, so you can sit and enjoy and take pics in free time. although it may look dirty because its black sand but its very clean and a marvelous beauty. Must visit. #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #beachvacation

Paradise 101 is definitely worth the visit. My friend’s and I had a great time at Paradise 101. Shahrul, our driver is very helpful and nice to help us out with anything, he even sent us back to hotel as the time is already 11pm. They take really good care of us and treat us just like their friends. The hospitality in the island was superb too! They have good live band and not forgetting good food and drinks too! I was very surprised how few people were actually on the island, when we arrived, there were more staff than guests. Made us feel privilege to be on the island. The staff were very friendly and helpful, you really do not have to worry about personal security and your valuables being left on the deck chairs as there was security staff present. All water sports activities were top notch and safety was always a priority for them. Try out the packages to suite your requirements. Be prepared to spend the whole days there if you want to enjoy the morning sun and sunset view. Nice place to chill and relax. #urbanexplorer #happylaborday #beachvacation
