LONDON, ENGLAND!

big ben

Ah, London, England! One of my favorite places. I have always loved this place. Maybe it’s the cute British guys or the magnificent attractions to visit. Either way you should definitely travel to London.

Big Ben is one of the major attractions to go see in London. It doesn’t matter if you have no idea what Big Ben is. You must go see it, it’s the big clock in the middle of London. It’s one of the most extravagent buildings createdin London. They say that the chime makes tons of birds fly why it goes off. They say the clock did not stop working, even during World War two. The first eighty feet is actually made up of brick and stone, the rest is made up of casting iron.

The Tower Bridge in London is one of the most famous tourist attraction. You can even go between the two bridges on a walkway where you’ll get a magnifacent view of London. Inside the bridge is the Tower bridge Exhibition, a display area that encompasses the walkway. It really is amazing.

The next attraction would be the London Eye. It’s the big farris wheel next to the London River. The London Eye can carry over 800 passengers, and you can see over twenty-five miles. It’s a view fit for the queen. Each capsule you ride in weighs over ten tons. The total weight of the London eye equals two-thousand one-hundered pounds which is equivalent to one thousand two hundred and seventy-two London Black Cabs.

Well as they say in London, Cheerio!

Dublin, Ireland

Dublin

Dia Dhuit! In Ireland that’s how you say hello, and with the people living in Ireland that’s all you’ll want to do on your trip.

The first thing you’ll want to do is visit Glendalough, which means Glen of the two lakes. This place is a deserted village located in the Wicklow Mountains. Since it is easily accessed by cars, it is the perfect stop to visit.

Next you’ll want to visit Georgian, Dublin. This beautiful stop in Dublin is known for its incredible Georgian architecture. You will NOT be able to swoon over the magnificent structures present. Georgian’s most famous building is No. 29 Fitzwillam Street Lower. It has been restored to its full glory, and re-furnished.

After that you’ll have to head to the Dublin Zoo for ye’ little lads; it is, after all, the biggest zoo in the island of Ireland. It may be a long walk, but all you need to do is take a bus, or taxi to the Phoenix Park. This Zoo is divided into six part, each with its own theme. The six themes are as follows; African Plains, Fringes of the Arctic, The Kzirange Forest Trail, World of Primates, World of Cats, and City Farm/ Pet’s Corner. Your kids, if you have any, will have a fantastic time. If you don’t have children, you will also have a great time.

If you are a history freak, you will most definitely love the National Museum of Ireland. Even if you aren’t that great at finding your way around areas, this museum is easily located in Collins Barracks. Which also means that Dublin itself is an easier area to navigate. This museum has three sections; Archaeology, Decorative Art, and Natural History. Decorative Art showcases the clothing styles of furniture, costumes, and weaponry, which also shows some sort of Irish pride.

Good-bye! Or Slán, as they say in Ireland!!

Rome, Italy

The main things you need to do in Rome are the following; hang out in the Pantheon, circle the Colosseum, get a tour of Vatican city and check out the Cappuchin Crypt. The Pantheon is called the inside out building. It looks old on the outside but brand new on the inside. The marble floors you would be walking on have literally been there for 2,000 years. 2,000! It manages to stand out among the newer buildings still today. The Colosseum is one of the oldest theater’s known to man. If you are into history need to check it out, because it’s been through some construction but still holds all the history of Rome’s past. Taking a tour of Vatican City will take a whole day out of your vacation schedule, but it’s worth it. There are museums there for you tour, and you’ll need a tour guide if you really don’t want to miss out on all the important fact of the city. The Cappuchin Crypt is a very small site, and a quick visit, but these small chapels are really special; decorated out of 4,000 Cappuchin monkey bone. they are sure to be special. It may seem creepy to some people, but it would only take a few hours out of your vacation to see these unique chapels. One other thing you need to make sure to do on your trip; Eat an authentic Italian dish. So plan your next vacation to visit the city that is Rome. It’s a beautiful place with warm weather and yummy food. Arrivederci!
