After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

In the early morning, mist covers the iconic mushroom rocks, creating a full atmospheric vibe. Photography Tips: Use a wide-angle lens for panoramic canyon shots and a telephoto lens to compress rock layers; wear bright red, orange, or yellow clothing to contrast with the earth-yellow and orange-red rock walls for striking photos. 2. Fossil Valley Trail | Jurassic Archaeological Site The trail surface is scattered with numerous dinosaur bone fossils visible up close, but strict rules apply: · Maintain a 1.5-meter safe distance from fossils; no stepping on or climbing the rock layers · You may bring a small brush to clean off loose dirt for a simple archaeological experience; it is illegal to remove any fossils · The ground clay is soft; stay on existing trails and avoid stepping on soil slopes 3. Alien Canyon | Sci-Fi Filming Location The most famous spot in the entire park, with fluorescent orange, mint green, and creamy white multi-layered rocks interwoven, creating a surreal color clash like an alien surface. ⚠️ Safety Reminder: The rock walls are loose and prone to collapse; strictly follow marked routes and do not venture deep into the canyon. 🌌 Night Tour Exclusive: Desert Milky Way Starry Night Far from city light pollution, the entire wilderness reveals the full Milky Way to the naked eye at night. The rock pillars framed against the starry sky create a powerful visual impact. Photography Gear: Tripod, large aperture camera, headlamp; use long exposure of 10–15 seconds, ISO 1600–3200 to easily capture stunning star trails.

💎Overseas secret wild ambassador | California Fort Bragg glass beach film-style travel guide Destination: Glass Beach at MacKerricher State Park, Fort Bragg, California. Once a city dump site, decades of ocean waves have polished it into a coast of sparkling sea glass. A must-stop natural hidden gem on the Highway 1 road trip. 🚗 Two travel options Drive north from San Francisco along CA-1 Highway. The drive takes about 3.5 hours with Pacific cliffside ocean views all along the way, where you can stop anytime to enjoy the scenery. There is a small free parking lot at the beach’s end. Parking is limited during peak season, so try to arrive before 9 AM. Paid parking in the state park costs US$10 per day. If you don’t have a car, you can take the Greyhound bus to Fort Bragg town, then a 10-minute taxi ride to the beach. The total trip takes 6 to 8 hours. Local carpool or day tours are also options. 📸 Four main highlights ✨ Rainbow sea glass beach: White and green sea glass are most common. Red and blue are rare and only fully visible at low tide when the entire tidal flat is exposed. The coast is divided into three beach areas. Beach 3 has the largest amount of sea glass and the best viewing. A gentle coastal boardwalk lets you see small marine creatures like crabs and sea anemones in tide pools. Stop by the Skunk vintage forest train and the colorful seaside fairy-tale town of Mendocino. The golden hour from 3 PM to 5 PM offers soft backlighting. Wet sea glass becomes translucent and reflective, perfect for atmospheric film-style photos. 🦋 Fun experiences Hunt for smooth sea glass on the tidal flats, take a leisurely walk along the coastline, ride the vintage train through redwood forests, and capture breathtaking ocean views from the cliffs. 🍤 Local food options In Fort Bragg town, enjoy fresh seafood, classic clam chowder, American burgers with craft beer, authentic Mexican tacos, or bring your own ingredients for a picnic by the sea. 🏡 Two types of accommodations ▫️ Fort Bragg town: Well-developed with plenty of sea view vacation rentals and convenient daily shopping. ▫️ Mendocino town: Rich in artistic atmosphere with stylish seaside cabins, ideal for a slow-paced, immersive vacation. 💡 Essential travel tips The beach is covered with glass shards, so wear non-slip, durable hiking shoes to protect your feet from cuts. Northern California’s coast is windy year-round with cooler temperatures, so bring a windbreaker and high-SPF sunscreen. Check the tide schedule before you go. Low tide is the only time to see large areas of sea glass. California state parks strictly prohibit collecting or removing sea glass. Violators face heavy fines. Photography is allowed. There are no shops or restaurants on the beach. Bring your own drinking water and snacks.

#itinerarycheck This is the signature Bryce hike and the combination route (Queen’s Garden down, Navajo Loop up via Wall Street) is the right way to do it—everyone says so and they are correct. I started at Sunrise Point at 7 am in late September, descended Queen’s Garden first (cooler, softer light on the hoodoos, fewer people coming up at you), reached the Queen’s Garden formation in 40 minutes, then continued to the Navajo Loop junction and climbed out through Wall Street. Total 5.3 km, 330 m elevation regain, 2 hours 15 with constant stopping. By 9:30 the Wall Street slot was in shadow and gorgeous; by 11 the whole amphitheater was flat midday light and the parking lot at Sunrise Point was full with a ranger directing cars. Bryce entrance is $35/vehicle, 7 days, card accepted at the booth. The shuttle runs from the visitor center to Sunrise/Sunset Points in season, but if you have a car just park at Sunrise Point and start there—the shuttle saves nothing in the early morning because it does not run until 8. Water: one bottle minimum even in autumn; the climb out of Navajo is switchbacked sand and sucks the moisture out of you. Boots help—the Queen’s Garden tread is sandy and the Wall Street stairs are worn limestone with drop-offs, fine in dry weather, slick after rain or frost. In winter Wall Street closes for ice and you must return via Two Bridges, adding 1 km. Lodging inside the park (Bryce Canyon Lodge) books 6–12 months ahead; outside, Ruby’s Inn takes cards and has an ATM that ran out of cash on a Friday night when I was there, so do not rely on it. Food at Ruby’s is overpriced diner fare—stock snacks in Panguitch (30 minutes south) where prices are normal. One mistake: I originally planned Navajo down + Queen’s Garden up, which means climbing the Wall Street stairs at the start when legs are fresh but descending the sandy switchbacks at the end when they are not—either works, but the conventional order gives you the better photographic direction and the harder climb in cooler air. For itinerary flow, Bryce pairs naturally with a sunset at Inspiration Point (5 minutes away, wheelchair-accessible overlook) the evening before, and a dawn at Sunrise Point the same day you hike. Trying to add Mossy Cave or Fairyland Loop on the same day as Navajo/Queen’s is overkill—Bryce rewards slow looking, not mileage. Has anyone done the full Figure 8 (Navajo + Queen’s + Peek-a-Boo) in one morning without regretting it by noon?

Summer in Seattle is all about the big forest and cycling—the perfect match! Today, I’m recommending a super healing cycling route where you won’t get sunburned at all, plus a hidden river spot. Over 90% of the route is shaded by forest, perfect for wearing just a sports tank top or even a swimsuit underneath and heading out directly. 🧭【Basic Route Info】 🚲 Cycling Trail: Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT for short) 📍 Start: Tolt-MacDonald Park (in the town of Carnation) 📍 End: Snoqualmie Falls (return as you wish based on your stamina) 📍【Beginner-Friendly Guide & Tips】 🚗 Free Parking: Navigate directly to the start at Tolt-MacDonald Park. There’s plenty of free parking here! Don’t navigate directly to the end at Snoqualmie Falls—it’s crowded and you might get a ticket. 📸 Start Check-in Landmark: At the park entrance, there’s a very eye-catching red vintage suspension bridge (the SVT is converted from old railway lines). You can walk up and take photos of the river before setting off. 🚲 Route Tip: Google Maps usually directs you to the nearby main road. Be sure to manually drag the route onto the Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT)! It’s a converted abandoned railway, with a very wide and smooth path, and all the scenery is inside the forest. ⚡ Energy-Saving Suggestion: Although there are no big hills, the trail is compacted gravel, so riding an e-bike is recommended to save energy for taking beautiful photos. 🍓【$3 per Pound Raspberry Freedom】 Next to the start park is Remlinger Farms, and July is perfect for raspberry picking! Self-service U-Pick is only $3 per pound (a small box in the supermarket usually costs $10). The freshly picked berries dripping with dew are super sweet! ⚠️ The farm closes at 5 PM, so plan your return ride accordingly. 👙【Regretted Not Bringing a Swimsuit Hidden River Spot】 Just 2 minutes cycling from the start, there’s a super hidden water play spot (location marked on map X). The river water is crystal clear and ice-cold. Under the bridge, there’s even a river swing, with many hot guys and girls enjoying drifting and paddleboarding. I wasn’t prepared this time, so I could only watch from the shore and secretly vowed to come next time wearing a swimsuit. 💡【Travel Tips】 Navigation: Tolt-MacDonald Park Gear: Sunglasses, mosquito repellent, and your swimsuit/change of clothes! Security: It’s best to bring a bike lock. Although at the time, a dozen bikes by the river were unlocked and everyone was very chill, it’s safer to lock up just in case.

Mooney Falls is the definition of adventure in Arizona! 💦💙 You’ll find this epic beauty tucked away in the magical Havasupai region of the Grand Canyon. To get there, you’ll need to hike down steep, almost vertical cliffs using chains and ladders—talk about living your best daredevil life! The journey is totally wild, but that first glimpse of Mooney Falls crashing 200 feet down into turquoise pools is absolutely worth it. 🤯 Surrounded by red rock walls and lush greenery, this is truly an Insta-perfect spot. Bring your waterproof gear—you’ll want to snap some insane pics and maybe even take a dip to cool off. Just remember: you need a permit (from the official Havasupai Tribe website) and the trail is only open from February to November. No casual drop-ins here, fam! Location: Mooney Falls, Havasupai Falls, Supai, AZ 86435 Best Time: Early morning for fewer crowds and dreamy lighting Hours: Open February–November (permit required) Honestly, this is one of those bucket-list adventures you’ll never forget. Grab your squad, pack those hiking shoes, and get ready for a waterfall experience that’s 100% Arizona legend status! 💙✨ Ready to plan? Find more inspo and book Grand Canyon stays on trip.com!

Canada 🇨🇦 is great, but I won’t go back 🌲 because it’s really tough on travelers Just got back from the Canada loop 😭! Honestly, here’s the real deal! The scenery is absolutely stunning! Snow-capped mountains, lakes, and forests are like wallpapers everywhere ✨, but the trip is really exhausting and grueling! Spending money while suffering, rushing from place to place, the experience is extremely polarized. Once is enough! 🚗 Transportation tips 🗺️ Here’s a real no-fail guide to avoid pitfalls ✅ Canada’s biggest challenge: the land is ridiculously huge 💥! Cities and attractions are very far apart. Driving between Toronto, Vancouver, and Banff takes 3–4 hours each way! You basically have to drive yourself the whole time. There’s no reliable public transportation, so independent travel is almost impossible! 🚙 Many pitfalls with self-driving: Car rental prices double in peak season, and popular models are hard to book even two weeks in advance! Mountain roads are common, and some areas have no signal 📶. You must download offline maps in advance. If you’re unfamiliar with the roads, driving is really risky. 🚄 Intercity transport is very poor value. Tickets are expensive, schedules are limited, and wait times are long. ⚠️ Hidden costs to watch out for: All prices exclude tax! At checkout, 12%–13% tax is automatically added. Meals and taxis also require a mandatory 15%–20% tip 💸, so it’s easy to overspend! Don’t book hotels in the core of scenic areas! Banff hotels are outrageously priced in peak season. Staying in nearby towns can save you half the cost! 🌿 Real travel experience ✨ Honestly! Canada’s natural beauty is truly unmatched 💯! Lake Louise and Moraine Lake have crystal-clear blue water 💎, the Rocky Mountains are covered in endless snow ❄️, Niagara Falls is grand and breathtaking, and the forest air cures all anxiety! Few people, pristine scenery, and completely uncommercialized natural beauty. But it’s also really tough on travelers 😮‍💨! You spend most of your day in the car, sitting so long your back and waist hurt. It’s pure “sit and watch the scenery”! The weather in August and September is crazy. It’s scorching hot during the day ☀️, then windy and cold at night, with huge temperature swings. Dressing is a real challenge. There are tons of mosquitoes in forests and near lakes 🦟. They’re big and bite hard, making outdoor hiking miserable. Scenic area facilities are scarce. There are few supply points and basic rest areas. You often run out of water and snacks on the road, which seriously hurts the experience! 🍽️ Authentic Canadian food 🤤 The scenery is perfect, but the food is just okay 😋 🍁 Maple syrup pancakes | A national specialty! Sweet, soft, and rich in dairy flavor. A breakfast staple 🥩 Canadian steak | Tender, thick, juicy, and grilled over charcoal for great satisfaction 🐟 Deep-sea salmon | Firm, fresh, low-fat, and healthy. A local signature ingredient 🍟 Poutine cheese fries | Fries covered in cheese, salty and rich, a popular street snack 💡 Honest warnings 💣 Local dining is limited and mild in flavor. If you’re not used to Western food, you’ll get tired of it quickly! Scenic area restaurants are overpriced and portions vary. It’s best to bring extra snacks to avoid hunger on the road! 💡 Practical travel tips 📝 1. Be sure to apply for your visa in advance 📄! The process is complicated with many documents, and the rejection rate is not low. Allow plenty of time. 2. Prepare enough supplies for the whole self-driving trip! Bring water, snacks, and mosquito repellent. Supplies are scarce in mountain areas. 3. Dress in layers like an onion 🧥. A sun- and windproof jacket is essential to handle changing weather. 4. Stay away from deep forest areas. Follow scenic area rules and hike safely without taking risks. 5. Budget for taxes and tips on all expenses to avoid surprises at checkout. 6. Don’t rush your itinerary! Visit fewer attractions each day to ease fatigue from long drives. Canada’s beauty is pure, breathtaking mountain wilderness romance 🏔️! Snowy mountains, lakes, primeval forests, and healing wilderness. The scenery is flawless. But the long drives, high costs, unpredictable weather, and basic facilities are really tough for most people! It’s best suited for those who love the outdoors, can endure hardship, and have a generous budget. For most people, it’s not recommended to rush here blindly. Seeing the stunning scenery once is enough to remember for a lifetime!

#arrivalguide Visiting Grand Canyon National Park for the first time is an unforgettable experience, and a little planning makes the trip much smoother. I entered through the South Rim, which is the most popular area and offers easy access to scenic viewpoints, visitor services, and walking trails. Arrive early in the morning to avoid heavy traffic, find parking more easily, and enjoy cooler temperatures. Wear comfortable walking shoes, bring plenty of drinking water, sunscreen, and a hat, as the weather can become hot and dry, especially in summer. Keep your camera ready because the canyon views change beautifully throughout the day. Follow all safety signs and stay behind railings where provided, as the canyon edges can be dangerous. Spend time at several viewpoints instead of rushing through just one stop. Watching the sunrise or sunset over the canyon is an experience you won't forget and makes the visit even more rewarding. #arrivalguide #grandcanyonnationalpark #arizona #usa #nationalparks

Who would have thought! Hidden in Canada is a small town favored by time 🌿, avoiding the crowded crowds of Toronto and Vancouver.

SAVE THIS! ⭐️General: Do not get an electric car because we wasted quite a bit of time finding charging points and waiting for the Tesla to fully charge. ⭐️Antelope Canyons: It is mandatory to book a tour for the Canyons. We chose Upper instead of Lower because it’s more picturesque and mostly flat while in Lower, you had to descend and ascend equivalent to 3-4 flights of stairs with ladders during the 600 meters walk. We booked a 1.5 hour tour but it only lasted 1 hour because we took a ride to and from the meet up point. Book a photography tour instead if you’d like to spend more time taking pictures. 1 hour was too short! ⭐️Horseshoe Bend: The hike to the viewpoint is about 2.4km round trip. Bring water and wear comfortable shoes. For the best photos, wide-angle lens are important to capture the entire bend in the river. ⭐️Grand Canyon: We chose South Rim instead of West Rim as the West is closer to Las Vegas so we could do a West Rim Helicopter ride next time we’re in Vegas. Besides, it is less developed and offers fewer amenities and viewpoints compared to the South Rim. It is $35 per private vehicle for a pass valid for 7 days. With 20 viewpoints accessible by vehicle, Mather Point, Yavapai Point, and Desert View are the best viewpoints. Use the free shuttle services available to explore different viewpoints without the hassle of driving and parking. #grouptravel

📍 Fontainebleau Las Vegas 2777 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109 Fontainebleau is one of the Strip’s newest mega-resorts—a 67-story, 3,600-plus room tower that feels more like a glossy fashion set than a casino lobby. Think marble rings of floor around giant rose sculptures, champagne-gold chandeliers, and long blue hallways that look designed for slow-motion entrance videos. It’s all very “Miami meets north Strip,” with the bow-tie logo repeating in the ceilings, carpets, and even the driveway lights. Beyond the looks, this place is built to be a full-service base: a 170,000-square-foot casino, dozens of restaurants and bars (many first-to-market concepts), and rooms that lean soft blue and grey with big windows facing either the Strip or the mountains. If you’re here for conventions, it’s right by the Las Vegas Convention Center; if you’re here for nightlife, the BleauLive Theater and on-site clubs keep the energy inside the building so you don’t have to chase Ubers up and down the Strip. #lasvegas #fontainebleau #travel

#itinerarycheck First time in Vegas? Don’t try to see everything ,pick the hotels that are actually worth stopping for. This route covers the most iconic ones: 🚕 Start: Luxor Hotel & Casino 🇪🇬 Getting there: Uber/taxi is easiest. You can also use the free Mandalay Bay–Luxor–Excalibur tram. 👀 Look for: the giant pyramid, Sphinx and the incredible pyramid interior. ❤️New York-New York 🗽 👀 Look for: Statue of Liberty replica, NYC skyline and the Big Apple Coaster. ⭐ Worth a photo stop. ❤️Paris Las Vegas 🇫🇷 👀 Look for: the Eiffel Tower replica and Paris-style streets. ❤️Bellagio ⭐ 👀 Look for: the famous fountains outside and the free Conservatory & Botanical Gardens inside. ⭐ One of the best stops on the Strip. ❤️Caesars Palace 🏛️ ⭐ 👀 Look for: Roman statues, fountains and the impressive Forum Shops. ❤️The Venetian 🇮🇹 ⭐ 👀 Look for: indoor canals, gondolas, painted ceilings and the Grand Canal Shoppes. ⭐ A perfect place to finish. 🚝 Getting around: The Strip is walkable, but distances are deceptive. If your feet give up: · Use the paid Las Vegas Monorail for longer journeys · Use free hotel trams where available: ✔️ Mandalay Bay ↔ Luxor ↔ Excalibur ✔️ Bellagio ↔ Vdara ↔ ARIA 💡 Allow around 4–6 hours with photo stops, or make it a full day if you add food, shopping or attractions. Which hotel would you want to see first? 🎰

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

Awana Spa at Resorts World is a good choice for travelers who want a wellness experience with several distinct spaces. The Fountain of Youth creates a dramatic centerpiece, while the Laconium Room offers a warm, quieter environment for slowing down. The locker area also makes it easier to change, store belongings, and prepare without feeling rushed. When booking, check which amenities are included and whether any rooms require a specific treatment or spa pass. Arriving early is especially useful because Resorts World is large and the route from parking or rideshare drop-off can take longer than expected. The combination of water features, warm rooms, and softly lit interiors makes this an easy place to recharge before returning to restaurants, shows, and other Las Vegas activities. #staycation#thingstodo#resorts

Last spring in Las Vegas, I encountered a dreamlike spring bloom. On the Las Vegas Strip, luxury hotels stand side by side, each with a strong unique style. Touring hotels has become a signature activity in the gambling city. The most popular is the Bellagio, which features a free indoor conservatory garden in its lobby. Surrounded by colorful flowers and sculptures, it feels like stepping into a real-life fairy tale world~

There is nothing quite like summer in Las Vegas! From the shimmering heat on the Strip to the extravagant stay in the resorts, this trip was one for the books. ✨ Living like royal at The Venetian We stayed in a gorgeous suite at The Venetian, and it completely lived up to the hype. The attention to detail inside the hotel is unreal—the indoor canals, the stunning waterfall displays, and the grand floral gown installations made it feel like we were walking through a dream. 🏊♂️ Weekend DJ pool party When you're in Vegas during the summer, pool days are non-negotiable. We spent hours soaking up the sun and cooling off in the waters surrounded by palm trees. On the weekend, there is always DJ playing for the party. When we weren't poolside, we were taking in some incredible bird's-eye views of the iconic Strip, looking out over Treasure Island and the glittering gold Trump tower. 🎭 Strip Nights One of the absolute highlights was watching the gondolas glide along the vibrant blue outdoor canals under the bright desert sky. As the sun set, the city really came alive. From the neon lights of Gilley's to the stunning architecture of the Palazzo, Vegas at night is just pure magic.

As a long-time pass holder of heritage museums & gardens 🤝 I’ve seen it improve year after year. From just having portable restrooms a few years ago to now having very clean, fancy large restrooms, I have to say the membership fee is worth it. I’ve been to many gardens nearby, but this one never gets old! Every time I stroll around, I feel great and get perfect photos. Different flowers and plants bloom at different times, so there’s always something to capture👌🏻 The hydrangea festival is about to bloom soon, many are already open. I love taking photos and will keep coming back to shoot

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

Many travelers hit pitfalls on their first day in New York in August! This guide to avoiding common mistakes is recommended for early saving☀️ If you’re planning to visit New York in August, it’s best to read this first. August in New York is really different from other seasons. Preparing ahead will make your experience much better. 🌤️【August weather in New York】 August is the hottest time of the year in New York. ✔️Daytime temperatures usually range from 27 to 35℃, and can be even higher during heat waves. ✔️Indoor places like malls, subways, and restaurants have strong air conditioning, so the temperature difference is noticeable. Recommended to bring: · Short sleeves, quick-dry shirts, shorts, or lightweight long pants · Sun hat, sunglasses, sunscreen · A lightweight jacket for when you enter air-conditioned indoor spaces 🎫【Tips for popular attractions】 📍Statue of Liberty Try to take the ferry in the morning when it’s less crowded. Afternoon lines are usually longer. 📍SUMMIT One Vanderbilt Evening visits are recommended to see the daytime view, sunset, and New York night skyline all at once. 📍The Edge Great for photos, especially on clear days with excellent views. 📍The Metropolitan Museum of Art The museum is very large. It’s best to decide which exhibits you want to see in advance, or you won’t finish in one day. 📍Central Park Perfect for walking, biking, or picnicking in summer. It’s also a popular weekend spot for many New Yorkers. 📍Brooklyn Bridge Best to visit early morning or late afternoon. The midday sun is strong, and photos are less comfortable to take. 🗓️【Recommended itinerary】 D1: Arrive in New York. Walk around Times Square and Broadway to adjust to the time difference. D2: Central Park → Metropolitan Museum of Art → Fifth Avenue → Rockefeller Center → SUMMIT for night views. D3: Statue of Liberty → Wall Street → 9/11 Memorial Plaza → Brooklyn Bridge → DUMBO. D4: High Line Park → Chelsea Market → Little Island → The Edge → Hudson River for sunset. D5: Travel from New York to Philadelphia.

It’s best to book tickets for popular observation decks and Statue of Liberty ferries in advance.

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

💎Overseas secret wild ambassador | California Fort Bragg glass beach film-style travel guide Destination: Glass Beach at MacKerricher State Park, Fort Bragg, California. Once a city dump site, decades of ocean waves have polished it into a coast of sparkling sea glass. A must-stop natural hidden gem on the Highway 1 road trip. 🚗 Two travel options Drive north from San Francisco along CA-1 Highway. The drive takes about 3.5 hours with Pacific cliffside ocean views all along the way, where you can stop anytime to enjoy the scenery. There is a small free parking lot at the beach’s end. Parking is limited during peak season, so try to arrive before 9 AM. Paid parking in the state park costs US$10 per day. If you don’t have a car, you can take the Greyhound bus to Fort Bragg town, then a 10-minute taxi ride to the beach. The total trip takes 6 to 8 hours. Local carpool or day tours are also options. 📸 Four main highlights ✨ Rainbow sea glass beach: White and green sea glass are most common. Red and blue are rare and only fully visible at low tide when the entire tidal flat is exposed. The coast is divided into three beach areas. Beach 3 has the largest amount of sea glass and the best viewing. A gentle coastal boardwalk lets you see small marine creatures like crabs and sea anemones in tide pools. Stop by the Skunk vintage forest train and the colorful seaside fairy-tale town of Mendocino. The golden hour from 3 PM to 5 PM offers soft backlighting. Wet sea glass becomes translucent and reflective, perfect for atmospheric film-style photos. 🦋 Fun experiences Hunt for smooth sea glass on the tidal flats, take a leisurely walk along the coastline, ride the vintage train through redwood forests, and capture breathtaking ocean views from the cliffs. 🍤 Local food options In Fort Bragg town, enjoy fresh seafood, classic clam chowder, American burgers with craft beer, authentic Mexican tacos, or bring your own ingredients for a picnic by the sea. 🏡 Two types of accommodations ▫️ Fort Bragg town: Well-developed with plenty of sea view vacation rentals and convenient daily shopping. ▫️ Mendocino town: Rich in artistic atmosphere with stylish seaside cabins, ideal for a slow-paced, immersive vacation. 💡 Essential travel tips The beach is covered with glass shards, so wear non-slip, durable hiking shoes to protect your feet from cuts. Northern California’s coast is windy year-round with cooler temperatures, so bring a windbreaker and high-SPF sunscreen. Check the tide schedule before you go. Low tide is the only time to see large areas of sea glass. California state parks strictly prohibit collecting or removing sea glass. Violators face heavy fines. Photography is allowed. There are no shops or restaurants on the beach. Bring your own drinking water and snacks.

#itinerarycheck This is the signature Bryce hike and the combination route (Queen’s Garden down, Navajo Loop up via Wall Street) is the right way to do it—everyone says so and they are correct. I started at Sunrise Point at 7 am in late September, descended Queen’s Garden first (cooler, softer light on the hoodoos, fewer people coming up at you), reached the Queen’s Garden formation in 40 minutes, then continued to the Navajo Loop junction and climbed out through Wall Street. Total 5.3 km, 330 m elevation regain, 2 hours 15 with constant stopping. By 9:30 the Wall Street slot was in shadow and gorgeous; by 11 the whole amphitheater was flat midday light and the parking lot at Sunrise Point was full with a ranger directing cars. Bryce entrance is $35/vehicle, 7 days, card accepted at the booth. The shuttle runs from the visitor center to Sunrise/Sunset Points in season, but if you have a car just park at Sunrise Point and start there—the shuttle saves nothing in the early morning because it does not run until 8. Water: one bottle minimum even in autumn; the climb out of Navajo is switchbacked sand and sucks the moisture out of you. Boots help—the Queen’s Garden tread is sandy and the Wall Street stairs are worn limestone with drop-offs, fine in dry weather, slick after rain or frost. In winter Wall Street closes for ice and you must return via Two Bridges, adding 1 km. Lodging inside the park (Bryce Canyon Lodge) books 6–12 months ahead; outside, Ruby’s Inn takes cards and has an ATM that ran out of cash on a Friday night when I was there, so do not rely on it. Food at Ruby’s is overpriced diner fare—stock snacks in Panguitch (30 minutes south) where prices are normal. One mistake: I originally planned Navajo down + Queen’s Garden up, which means climbing the Wall Street stairs at the start when legs are fresh but descending the sandy switchbacks at the end when they are not—either works, but the conventional order gives you the better photographic direction and the harder climb in cooler air. For itinerary flow, Bryce pairs naturally with a sunset at Inspiration Point (5 minutes away, wheelchair-accessible overlook) the evening before, and a dawn at Sunrise Point the same day you hike. Trying to add Mossy Cave or Fairyland Loop on the same day as Navajo/Queen’s is overkill—Bryce rewards slow looking, not mileage. Has anyone done the full Figure 8 (Navajo + Queen’s + Peek-a-Boo) in one morning without regretting it by noon?

Summer in Seattle is all about the big forest and cycling—the perfect match! Today, I’m recommending a super healing cycling route where you won’t get sunburned at all, plus a hidden river spot. Over 90% of the route is shaded by forest, perfect for wearing just a sports tank top or even a swimsuit underneath and heading out directly. 🧭【Basic Route Info】 🚲 Cycling Trail: Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT for short) 📍 Start: Tolt-MacDonald Park (in the town of Carnation) 📍 End: Snoqualmie Falls (return as you wish based on your stamina) 📍【Beginner-Friendly Guide & Tips】 🚗 Free Parking: Navigate directly to the start at Tolt-MacDonald Park. There’s plenty of free parking here! Don’t navigate directly to the end at Snoqualmie Falls—it’s crowded and you might get a ticket. 📸 Start Check-in Landmark: At the park entrance, there’s a very eye-catching red vintage suspension bridge (the SVT is converted from old railway lines). You can walk up and take photos of the river before setting off. 🚲 Route Tip: Google Maps usually directs you to the nearby main road. Be sure to manually drag the route onto the Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT)! It’s a converted abandoned railway, with a very wide and smooth path, and all the scenery is inside the forest. ⚡ Energy-Saving Suggestion: Although there are no big hills, the trail is compacted gravel, so riding an e-bike is recommended to save energy for taking beautiful photos. 🍓【$3 per Pound Raspberry Freedom】 Next to the start park is Remlinger Farms, and July is perfect for raspberry picking! Self-service U-Pick is only $3 per pound (a small box in the supermarket usually costs $10). The freshly picked berries dripping with dew are super sweet! ⚠️ The farm closes at 5 PM, so plan your return ride accordingly. 👙【Regretted Not Bringing a Swimsuit Hidden River Spot】 Just 2 minutes cycling from the start, there’s a super hidden water play spot (location marked on map X). The river water is crystal clear and ice-cold. Under the bridge, there’s even a river swing, with many hot guys and girls enjoying drifting and paddleboarding. I wasn’t prepared this time, so I could only watch from the shore and secretly vowed to come next time wearing a swimsuit. 💡【Travel Tips】 Navigation: Tolt-MacDonald Park Gear: Sunglasses, mosquito repellent, and your swimsuit/change of clothes! Security: It’s best to bring a bike lock. Although at the time, a dozen bikes by the river were unlocked and everyone was very chill, it’s safer to lock up just in case.

Mooney Falls is the definition of adventure in Arizona! 💦💙 You’ll find this epic beauty tucked away in the magical Havasupai region of the Grand Canyon. To get there, you’ll need to hike down steep, almost vertical cliffs using chains and ladders—talk about living your best daredevil life! The journey is totally wild, but that first glimpse of Mooney Falls crashing 200 feet down into turquoise pools is absolutely worth it. 🤯 Surrounded by red rock walls and lush greenery, this is truly an Insta-perfect spot. Bring your waterproof gear—you’ll want to snap some insane pics and maybe even take a dip to cool off. Just remember: you need a permit (from the official Havasupai Tribe website) and the trail is only open from February to November. No casual drop-ins here, fam! Location: Mooney Falls, Havasupai Falls, Supai, AZ 86435 Best Time: Early morning for fewer crowds and dreamy lighting Hours: Open February–November (permit required) Honestly, this is one of those bucket-list adventures you’ll never forget. Grab your squad, pack those hiking shoes, and get ready for a waterfall experience that’s 100% Arizona legend status! 💙✨ Ready to plan? Find more inspo and book Grand Canyon stays on trip.com!

Canada 🇨🇦 is great, but I won’t go back 🌲 because it’s really tough on travelers Just got back from the Canada loop 😭! Honestly, here’s the real deal! The scenery is absolutely stunning! Snow-capped mountains, lakes, and forests are like wallpapers everywhere ✨, but the trip is really exhausting and grueling! Spending money while suffering, rushing from place to place, the experience is extremely polarized. Once is enough! 🚗 Transportation tips 🗺️ Here’s a real no-fail guide to avoid pitfalls ✅ Canada’s biggest challenge: the land is ridiculously huge 💥! Cities and attractions are very far apart. Driving between Toronto, Vancouver, and Banff takes 3–4 hours each way! You basically have to drive yourself the whole time. There’s no reliable public transportation, so independent travel is almost impossible! 🚙 Many pitfalls with self-driving: Car rental prices double in peak season, and popular models are hard to book even two weeks in advance! Mountain roads are common, and some areas have no signal 📶. You must download offline maps in advance. If you’re unfamiliar with the roads, driving is really risky. 🚄 Intercity transport is very poor value. Tickets are expensive, schedules are limited, and wait times are long. ⚠️ Hidden costs to watch out for: All prices exclude tax! At checkout, 12%–13% tax is automatically added. Meals and taxis also require a mandatory 15%–20% tip 💸, so it’s easy to overspend! Don’t book hotels in the core of scenic areas! Banff hotels are outrageously priced in peak season. Staying in nearby towns can save you half the cost! 🌿 Real travel experience ✨ Honestly! Canada’s natural beauty is truly unmatched 💯! Lake Louise and Moraine Lake have crystal-clear blue water 💎, the Rocky Mountains are covered in endless snow ❄️, Niagara Falls is grand and breathtaking, and the forest air cures all anxiety! Few people, pristine scenery, and completely uncommercialized natural beauty. But it’s also really tough on travelers 😮‍💨! You spend most of your day in the car, sitting so long your back and waist hurt. It’s pure “sit and watch the scenery”! The weather in August and September is crazy. It’s scorching hot during the day ☀️, then windy and cold at night, with huge temperature swings. Dressing is a real challenge. There are tons of mosquitoes in forests and near lakes 🦟. They’re big and bite hard, making outdoor hiking miserable. Scenic area facilities are scarce. There are few supply points and basic rest areas. You often run out of water and snacks on the road, which seriously hurts the experience! 🍽️ Authentic Canadian food 🤤 The scenery is perfect, but the food is just okay 😋 🍁 Maple syrup pancakes | A national specialty! Sweet, soft, and rich in dairy flavor. A breakfast staple 🥩 Canadian steak | Tender, thick, juicy, and grilled over charcoal for great satisfaction 🐟 Deep-sea salmon | Firm, fresh, low-fat, and healthy. A local signature ingredient 🍟 Poutine cheese fries | Fries covered in cheese, salty and rich, a popular street snack 💡 Honest warnings 💣 Local dining is limited and mild in flavor. If you’re not used to Western food, you’ll get tired of it quickly! Scenic area restaurants are overpriced and portions vary. It’s best to bring extra snacks to avoid hunger on the road! 💡 Practical travel tips 📝 1. Be sure to apply for your visa in advance 📄! The process is complicated with many documents, and the rejection rate is not low. Allow plenty of time. 2. Prepare enough supplies for the whole self-driving trip! Bring water, snacks, and mosquito repellent. Supplies are scarce in mountain areas. 3. Dress in layers like an onion 🧥. A sun- and windproof jacket is essential to handle changing weather. 4. Stay away from deep forest areas. Follow scenic area rules and hike safely without taking risks. 5. Budget for taxes and tips on all expenses to avoid surprises at checkout. 6. Don’t rush your itinerary! Visit fewer attractions each day to ease fatigue from long drives. Canada’s beauty is pure, breathtaking mountain wilderness romance 🏔️! Snowy mountains, lakes, primeval forests, and healing wilderness. The scenery is flawless. But the long drives, high costs, unpredictable weather, and basic facilities are really tough for most people! It’s best suited for those who love the outdoors, can endure hardship, and have a generous budget. For most people, it’s not recommended to rush here blindly. Seeing the stunning scenery once is enough to remember for a lifetime!

#arrivalguide Visiting Grand Canyon National Park for the first time is an unforgettable experience, and a little planning makes the trip much smoother. I entered through the South Rim, which is the most popular area and offers easy access to scenic viewpoints, visitor services, and walking trails. Arrive early in the morning to avoid heavy traffic, find parking more easily, and enjoy cooler temperatures. Wear comfortable walking shoes, bring plenty of drinking water, sunscreen, and a hat, as the weather can become hot and dry, especially in summer. Keep your camera ready because the canyon views change beautifully throughout the day. Follow all safety signs and stay behind railings where provided, as the canyon edges can be dangerous. Spend time at several viewpoints instead of rushing through just one stop. Watching the sunrise or sunset over the canyon is an experience you won't forget and makes the visit even more rewarding. #arrivalguide #grandcanyonnationalpark #arizona #usa #nationalparks

Who would have thought! Hidden in Canada is a small town favored by time 🌿, avoiding the crowded crowds of Toronto and Vancouver. Here, there is no commercial hustle and bustle, only European vintage style everywhere. This is Niagara-on-the-Lake, and the soul of the town—Queen Street—is definitely the pinnacle of short trips in Canada! Compared to the repetitive popular check-in spots in Canada, Queen Street focuses on an authentic vintage atmosphere and is also a local secret vacation treasure. Whether it's a couple's honeymoon, a trip with girlfriends, or a solo healing journey, this street can fulfill all your fantasies of a European small town. Once you visit, you'll be completely captivated ❤️ 📍 Overview Niagara-on-the-Lake is located on the banks of the Niagara River, adjacent to Niagara Falls, 1.5 hours by car from Toronto, and 40 minutes from Buffalo, New York. The entire town was once a century-old colonial stronghold. Queen Street, as the town's main artery, is only 1.2 kilometers long. The street isn't very long, but every inch of scenery is worth slowing down to savor. The whole street is dominated by Victorian vintage architecture, with neatly arranged colorful detached houses and vintage villas on both sides. The street is surrounded by lush greenery and flowers, with cherry blossoms in spring, roses in summer, and maple leaves in autumn, each season offering its own charm. Unlike the fast-food style commercialization of popular Canadian commercial streets, the shop density here is moderate, with no noisy tourist groups, quiet and relaxed, perfectly suited for a slow-paced trip. 🌟 Must-visit core check-in spots 1. Vintage Colorful Building Cluster [Top Photo Spot] The buildings along Queen Street span the 18th to 19th centuries, with detached houses in cream white, mint green, caramel brown, and creamy yellow scattered about.

Each old item carries a story of time. Antique lovers must not miss this; the niche collections offer great value for money; · Floral Handmade Shop: The store is wrapped in fresh flowers, focusing on dried flower decorations and preserved flower accessories. Prices are affordable, perfect for buying as travel souvenirs; · Local Winery Store: Niagara is a well-known Canadian ice wine region. The street-side winery stores offer free tastings of ice wine and dry red wine, and even beginners can learn wine tasting knowledge for free. 3. Century-old Theatre & Street Art Queen Street is home to Canada's long-established Shaw Festival Theatre, which has a history of over a century and stages plays, musicals, and stage dramas all year round. Compared to expensive theatre tickets in big cities, prices here are affordable (80-150 CAD per person), allowing an immersive experience of Western art and culture with a fully charged atmosphere. In addition, street performers are everywhere along the street, including violin solos, oil painting sketching, and vintage magic shows.

Highly recommend the ice wine flavor, a Niagara exclusive, sweet and refreshing with no artificial flavoring; 3. Riverside Western Restaurant Specializes in Western-style steak and seafood platters. Sitting in the outdoor dining area at dusk, enjoy dinner while watching the sunset over the Niagara River. The romance level is maxed out, perfect for couples. 📝 Comprehensive Travel Tips Best Travel Time From May to October every year!

Transportation Guide ✅ Self-driving: 1.5 hours from downtown Toronto, plenty of free roadside parking, most convenient for self-driving; ✅ Public transport: Direct bus from Toronto to the town, walkable to explore Queen Street upon arrival; ✅ Combined trips: After visiting Queen Street, a 15-minute drive takes you to Niagara Falls, perfect for a one-day dual itinerary.

SAVE THIS! ⭐️General: Do not get an electric car because we wasted quite a bit of time finding charging points and waiting for the Tesla to fully charge. ⭐️Antelope Canyons: It is mandatory to book a tour for the Canyons. We chose Upper instead of Lower because it’s more picturesque and mostly flat while in Lower, you had to descend and ascend equivalent to 3-4 flights of stairs with ladders during the 600 meters walk. We booked a 1.5 hour tour but it only lasted 1 hour because we took a ride to and from the meet up point. Book a photography tour instead if you’d like to spend more time taking pictures. 1 hour was too short! ⭐️Horseshoe Bend: The hike to the viewpoint is about 2.4km round trip. Bring water and wear comfortable shoes. For the best photos, wide-angle lens are important to capture the entire bend in the river. ⭐️Grand Canyon: We chose South Rim instead of West Rim as the West is closer to Las Vegas so we could do a West Rim Helicopter ride next time we’re in Vegas. Besides, it is less developed and offers fewer amenities and viewpoints compared to the South Rim. It is $35 per private vehicle for a pass valid for 7 days. With 20 viewpoints accessible by vehicle, Mather Point, Yavapai Point, and Desert View are the best viewpoints. Use the free shuttle services available to explore different viewpoints without the hassle of driving and parking. #grouptravel

📍 Fontainebleau Las Vegas 2777 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109 Fontainebleau is one of the Strip’s newest mega-resorts—a 67-story, 3,600-plus room tower that feels more like a glossy fashion set than a casino lobby. Think marble rings of floor around giant rose sculptures, champagne-gold chandeliers, and long blue hallways that look designed for slow-motion entrance videos. It’s all very “Miami meets north Strip,” with the bow-tie logo repeating in the ceilings, carpets, and even the driveway lights. Beyond the looks, this place is built to be a full-service base: a 170,000-square-foot casino, dozens of restaurants and bars (many first-to-market concepts), and rooms that lean soft blue and grey with big windows facing either the Strip or the mountains. If you’re here for conventions, it’s right by the Las Vegas Convention Center; if you’re here for nightlife, the BleauLive Theater and on-site clubs keep the energy inside the building so you don’t have to chase Ubers up and down the Strip. #lasvegas #fontainebleau #travel

#itinerarycheck First time in Vegas? Don’t try to see everything ,pick the hotels that are actually worth stopping for. This route covers the most iconic ones: 🚕 Start: Luxor Hotel & Casino 🇪🇬 Getting there: Uber/taxi is easiest. You can also use the free Mandalay Bay–Luxor–Excalibur tram. 👀 Look for: the giant pyramid, Sphinx and the incredible pyramid interior. ❤️New York-New York 🗽 👀 Look for: Statue of Liberty replica, NYC skyline and the Big Apple Coaster. ⭐ Worth a photo stop. ❤️Paris Las Vegas 🇫🇷 👀 Look for: the Eiffel Tower replica and Paris-style streets. ❤️Bellagio ⭐ 👀 Look for: the famous fountains outside and the free Conservatory & Botanical Gardens inside. ⭐ One of the best stops on the Strip. ❤️Caesars Palace 🏛️ ⭐ 👀 Look for: Roman statues, fountains and the impressive Forum Shops. ❤️The Venetian 🇮🇹 ⭐ 👀 Look for: indoor canals, gondolas, painted ceilings and the Grand Canal Shoppes. ⭐ A perfect place to finish. 🚝 Getting around: The Strip is walkable, but distances are deceptive. If your feet give up: · Use the paid Las Vegas Monorail for longer journeys · Use free hotel trams where available: ✔️ Mandalay Bay ↔ Luxor ↔ Excalibur ✔️ Bellagio ↔ Vdara ↔ ARIA 💡 Allow around 4–6 hours with photo stops, or make it a full day if you add food, shopping or attractions. Which hotel would you want to see first? 🎰

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

Awana Spa at Resorts World is a good choice for travelers who want a wellness experience with several distinct spaces. The Fountain of Youth creates a dramatic centerpiece, while the Laconium Room offers a warm, quieter environment for slowing down. The locker area also makes it easier to change, store belongings, and prepare without feeling rushed. When booking, check which amenities are included and whether any rooms require a specific treatment or spa pass. Arriving early is especially useful because Resorts World is large and the route from parking or rideshare drop-off can take longer than expected. The combination of water features, warm rooms, and softly lit interiors makes this an easy place to recharge before returning to restaurants, shows, and other Las Vegas activities. #staycation#thingstodo#resorts

Touring hotels has become a signature activity in the gambling city. The most popular is the Bellagio, which features a free indoor conservatory garden in its lobby. Surrounded by colorful flowers and sculptures, it feels like stepping into a real-life fairy tale world~

There is nothing quite like summer in Las Vegas! From the shimmering heat on the Strip to the extravagant stay in the resorts, this trip was one for the books. ✨ Living like royal at The Venetian We stayed in a gorgeous suite at The Venetian, and it completely lived up to the hype. The attention to detail inside the hotel is unreal—the indoor canals, the stunning waterfall displays, and the grand floral gown installations made it feel like we were walking through a dream. 🏊♂️ Weekend DJ pool party When you're in Vegas during the summer, pool days are non-negotiable. We spent hours soaking up the sun and cooling off in the waters surrounded by palm trees. On the weekend, there is always DJ playing for the party. When we weren't poolside, we were taking in some incredible bird's-eye views of the iconic Strip, looking out over Treasure Island and the glittering gold Trump tower. 🎭 Strip Nights One of the absolute highlights was watching the gondolas glide along the vibrant blue outdoor canals under the bright desert sky. As the sun set, the city really came alive. From the neon lights of Gilley's to the stunning architecture of the Palazzo, Vegas at night is just pure magic.

As a long-time pass holder of heritage museums & gardens 🤝 I’ve seen it improve year after year. From just having portable restrooms a few years ago to now having very clean, fancy large restrooms, I have to say the membership fee is worth it. I’ve been to many gardens nearby, but this one never gets old! Every time I stroll around, I feel great and get perfect photos. Different flowers and plants bloom at different times, so there’s always something to capture👌🏻 The hydrangea festival is about to bloom soon, many are already open. I love taking photos and will keep coming back to shoot

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

Many travelers hit pitfalls on their first day in New York in August! This guide to avoiding common mistakes is recommended for early saving☀️ If you’re planning to visit New York in August, it’s best to read this first. August in New York is really different from other seasons. Preparing ahead will make your experience much better. 🌤️【August weather in New York】 August is the hottest time of the year in New York. ✔️Daytime temperatures usually range from 27 to 35℃, and can be even higher during heat waves. ✔️Indoor places like malls, subways, and restaurants have strong air conditioning, so the temperature difference is noticeable. Recommended to bring: · Short sleeves, quick-dry shirts, shorts, or lightweight long pants · Sun hat, sunglasses, sunscreen · A lightweight jacket for when you enter air-conditioned indoor spaces 🎫【Tips for popular attractions】 📍Statue of Liberty Try to take the ferry in the morning when it’s less crowded. Afternoon lines are usually longer. 📍SUMMIT One Vanderbilt Evening visits are recommended to see the daytime view, sunset, and New York night skyline all at once. 📍The Edge Great for photos, especially on clear days with excellent views. 📍The Metropolitan Museum of Art The museum is very large. It’s best to decide which exhibits you want to see in advance, or you won’t finish in one day. 📍Central Park Perfect for walking, biking, or picnicking in summer. It’s also a popular weekend spot for many New Yorkers. 📍Brooklyn Bridge Best to visit early morning or late afternoon. The midday sun is strong, and photos are less comfortable to take. 🗓️【Recommended itinerary】 D1: Arrive in New York. Walk around Times Square and Broadway to adjust to the time difference. D2: Central Park → Metropolitan Museum of Art → Fifth Avenue → Rockefeller Center → SUMMIT for night views. D3: Statue of Liberty → Wall Street → 9/11 Memorial Plaza → Brooklyn Bridge → DUMBO. D4: High Line Park → Chelsea Market → Little Island → The Edge → Hudson River for sunset. D5: Travel from New York to Philadelphia.

It’s best to book tickets for popular observation decks and Statue of Liberty ferries in advance.

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

Travel Tips: Gas stations are scarce along the way; fill up the tank before departure; no public transportation available, self-driving only 4.

In the early morning, mist covers the iconic mushroom rocks, creating a full atmospheric vibe. Photography Tips: Use a wide-angle lens for panoramic canyon shots and a telephoto lens to compress rock layers; wear bright red, orange, or yellow clothing to contrast with the earth-yellow and orange-red rock walls for striking photos. 2. Fossil Valley Trail | Jurassic Archaeological Site The trail surface is scattered with numerous dinosaur bone fossils visible up close, but strict rules apply: · Maintain a 1.5-meter safe distance from fossils; no stepping on or climbing the rock layers · You may bring a small brush to clean off loose dirt for a simple archaeological experience; it is illegal to remove any fossils · The ground clay is soft; stay on existing trails and avoid stepping on soil slopes 3. Alien Canyon | Sci-Fi Filming Location The most famous spot in the entire park, with fluorescent orange, mint green, and creamy white multi-layered rocks interwoven, creating a surreal color clash like an alien surface. ⚠️ Safety Reminder: The rock walls are loose and prone to collapse; strictly follow marked routes and do not venture deep into the canyon. 🌌 Night Tour Exclusive: Desert Milky Way Starry Night Far from city light pollution, the entire wilderness reveals the full Milky Way to the naked eye at night. The rock pillars framed against the starry sky create a powerful visual impact.

💎Overseas secret wild ambassador | California Fort Bragg glass beach film-style travel guide Destination: Glass Beach at MacKerricher State Park, Fort Bragg, California. Once a city dump site, decades of ocean waves have polished it into a coast of sparkling sea glass. A must-stop natural hidden gem on the Highway 1 road trip. 🚗 Two travel options Drive north from San Francisco along CA-1 Highway. The drive takes about 3.5 hours with Pacific cliffside ocean views all along the way, where you can stop anytime to enjoy the scenery. There is a small free parking lot at the beach’s end. Parking is limited during peak season, so try to arrive before 9 AM. Paid parking in the state park costs US$10 per day. If you don’t have a car, you can take the Greyhound bus to Fort Bragg town, then a 10-minute taxi ride to the beach. The total trip takes 6 to 8 hours. Local carpool or day tours are also options. 📸 Four main highlights ✨ Rainbow sea glass beach: White and green sea glass are most common. Red and blue are rare and only fully visible at low tide when the entire tidal flat is exposed. The coast is divided into three beach areas. Beach 3 has the largest amount of sea glass and the best viewing. A gentle coastal boardwalk lets you see small marine creatures like crabs and sea anemones in tide pools. Stop by the Skunk vintage forest train and the colorful seaside fairy-tale town of Mendocino. The golden hour from 3 PM to 5 PM offers soft backlighting. Wet sea glass becomes translucent and reflective, perfect for atmospheric film-style photos. 🦋 Fun experiences Hunt for smooth sea glass on the tidal flats, take a leisurely walk along the coastline, ride the vintage train through redwood forests, and capture breathtaking ocean views from the cliffs. 🍤 Local food options In Fort Bragg town, enjoy fresh seafood, classic clam chowder, American burgers with craft beer, authentic Mexican tacos, or bring your own ingredients for a picnic by the sea. 🏡 Two types of accommodations ▫️ Fort Bragg town: Well-developed with plenty of sea view vacation rentals and convenient daily shopping. ▫️ Mendocino town: Rich in artistic atmosphere with stylish seaside cabins, ideal for a slow-paced, immersive vacation. 💡 Essential travel tips The beach is covered with glass shards, so wear non-slip, durable hiking shoes to protect your feet from cuts. Northern California’s coast is windy year-round with cooler temperatures, so bring a windbreaker and high-SPF sunscreen. Check the tide schedule before you go. Low tide is the only time to see large areas of sea glass. California state parks strictly prohibit collecting or removing sea glass. Violators face heavy fines. Photography is allowed. There are no shops or restaurants on the beach. Bring your own drinking water and snacks.

#itinerarycheck This is the signature Bryce hike and the combination route (Queen’s Garden down, Navajo Loop up via Wall Street) is the right way to do it—everyone says so and they are correct. I started at Sunrise Point at 7 am in late September, descended Queen’s Garden first (cooler, softer light on the hoodoos, fewer people coming up at you), reached the Queen’s Garden formation in 40 minutes, then continued to the Navajo Loop junction and climbed out through Wall Street. Total 5.3 km, 330 m elevation regain, 2 hours 15 with constant stopping. By 9:30 the Wall Street slot was in shadow and gorgeous; by 11 the whole amphitheater was flat midday light and the parking lot at Sunrise Point was full with a ranger directing cars. Bryce entrance is $35/vehicle, 7 days, card accepted at the booth. The shuttle runs from the visitor center to Sunrise/Sunset Points in season, but if you have a car just park at Sunrise Point and start there—the shuttle saves nothing in the early morning because it does not run until 8. Water: one bottle minimum even in autumn; the climb out of Navajo is switchbacked sand and sucks the moisture out of you. Boots help—the Queen’s Garden tread is sandy and the Wall Street stairs are worn limestone with drop-offs, fine in dry weather, slick after rain or frost. In winter Wall Street closes for ice and you must return via Two Bridges, adding 1 km. Lodging inside the park (Bryce Canyon Lodge) books 6–12 months ahead; outside, Ruby’s Inn takes cards and has an ATM that ran out of cash on a Friday night when I was there, so do not rely on it. Food at Ruby’s is overpriced diner fare—stock snacks in Panguitch (30 minutes south) where prices are normal. One mistake: I originally planned Navajo down + Queen’s Garden up, which means climbing the Wall Street stairs at the start when legs are fresh but descending the sandy switchbacks at the end when they are not—either works, but the conventional order gives you the better photographic direction and the harder climb in cooler air. For itinerary flow, Bryce pairs naturally with a sunset at Inspiration Point (5 minutes away, wheelchair-accessible overlook) the evening before, and a dawn at Sunrise Point the same day you hike. Trying to add Mossy Cave or Fairyland Loop on the same day as Navajo/Queen’s is overkill—Bryce rewards slow looking, not mileage. Has anyone done the full Figure 8 (Navajo + Queen’s + Peek-a-Boo) in one morning without regretting it by noon?

Summer in Seattle is all about the big forest and cycling—the perfect match! Today, I’m recommending a super healing cycling route where you won’t get sunburned at all, plus a hidden river spot. Over 90% of the route is shaded by forest, perfect for wearing just a sports tank top or even a swimsuit underneath and heading out directly. 🧭【Basic Route Info】 🚲 Cycling Trail: Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT for short) 📍 Start: Tolt-MacDonald Park (in the town of Carnation) 📍 End: Snoqualmie Falls (return as you wish based on your stamina) 📍【Beginner-Friendly Guide & Tips】 🚗 Free Parking: Navigate directly to the start at Tolt-MacDonald Park. There’s plenty of free parking here! Don’t navigate directly to the end at Snoqualmie Falls—it’s crowded and you might get a ticket. 📸 Start Check-in Landmark: At the park entrance, there’s a very eye-catching red vintage suspension bridge (the SVT is converted from old railway lines). You can walk up and take photos of the river before setting off. 🚲 Route Tip: Google Maps usually directs you to the nearby main road. Be sure to manually drag the route onto the Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT)! It’s a converted abandoned railway, with a very wide and smooth path, and all the scenery is inside the forest. ⚡ Energy-Saving Suggestion: Although there are no big hills, the trail is compacted gravel, so riding an e-bike is recommended to save energy for taking beautiful photos. 🍓【$3 per Pound Raspberry Freedom】 Next to the start park is Remlinger Farms, and July is perfect for raspberry picking! Self-service U-Pick is only $3 per pound (a small box in the supermarket usually costs $10). The freshly picked berries dripping with dew are super sweet! ⚠️ The farm closes at 5 PM, so plan your return ride accordingly. 👙【Regretted Not Bringing a Swimsuit Hidden River Spot】 Just 2 minutes cycling from the start, there’s a super hidden water play spot (location marked on map X). The river water is crystal clear and ice-cold. Under the bridge, there’s even a river swing, with many hot guys and girls enjoying drifting and paddleboarding. I wasn’t prepared this time, so I could only watch from the shore and secretly vowed to come next time wearing a swimsuit. 💡【Travel Tips】 Navigation: Tolt-MacDonald Park Gear: Sunglasses, mosquito repellent, and your swimsuit/change of clothes! Security: It’s best to bring a bike lock. Although at the time, a dozen bikes by the river were unlocked and everyone was very chill, it’s safer to lock up just in case.

Mooney Falls is the definition of adventure in Arizona! 💦💙 You’ll find this epic beauty tucked away in the magical Havasupai region of the Grand Canyon. To get there, you’ll need to hike down steep, almost vertical cliffs using chains and ladders—talk about living your best daredevil life! The journey is totally wild, but that first glimpse of Mooney Falls crashing 200 feet down into turquoise pools is absolutely worth it. 🤯 Surrounded by red rock walls and lush greenery, this is truly an Insta-perfect spot. Bring your waterproof gear—you’ll want to snap some insane pics and maybe even take a dip to cool off. Just remember: you need a permit (from the official Havasupai Tribe website) and the trail is only open from February to November. No casual drop-ins here, fam! Location: Mooney Falls, Havasupai Falls, Supai, AZ 86435 Best Time: Early morning for fewer crowds and dreamy lighting Hours: Open February–November (permit required) Honestly, this is one of those bucket-list adventures you’ll never forget. Grab your squad, pack those hiking shoes, and get ready for a waterfall experience that’s 100% Arizona legend status! 💙✨ Ready to plan? Find more inspo and book Grand Canyon stays on trip.com!

Canada 🇨🇦 is great, but I won’t go back 🌲 because it’s really tough on travelers Just got back from the Canada loop 😭! Honestly, here’s the real deal! The scenery is absolutely stunning! Snow-capped mountains, lakes, and forests are like wallpapers everywhere ✨, but the trip is really exhausting and grueling! Spending money while suffering, rushing from place to place, the experience is extremely polarized. Once is enough! 🚗 Transportation tips 🗺️ Here’s a real no-fail guide to avoid pitfalls ✅ Canada’s biggest challenge: the land is ridiculously huge 💥! Cities and attractions are very far apart. Driving between Toronto, Vancouver, and Banff takes 3–4 hours each way! You basically have to drive yourself the whole time. There’s no reliable public transportation, so independent travel is almost impossible! 🚙 Many pitfalls with self-driving: Car rental prices double in peak season, and popular models are hard to book even two weeks in advance! Mountain roads are common, and some areas have no signal 📶. You must download offline maps in advance. If you’re unfamiliar with the roads, driving is really risky. 🚄 Intercity transport is very poor value. Tickets are expensive, schedules are limited, and wait times are long. ⚠️ Hidden costs to watch out for: All prices exclude tax! At checkout, 12%–13% tax is automatically added. Meals and taxis also require a mandatory 15%–20% tip 💸, so it’s easy to overspend! Don’t book hotels in the core of scenic areas! Banff hotels are outrageously priced in peak season. Staying in nearby towns can save you half the cost! 🌿 Real travel experience ✨ Honestly! Canada’s natural beauty is truly unmatched 💯! Lake Louise and Moraine Lake have crystal-clear blue water 💎, the Rocky Mountains are covered in endless snow ❄️, Niagara Falls is grand and breathtaking, and the forest air cures all anxiety! Few people, pristine scenery, and completely uncommercialized natural beauty. But it’s also really tough on travelers 😮‍💨! You spend most of your day in the car, sitting so long your back and waist hurt. It’s pure “sit and watch the scenery”! The weather in August and September is crazy. It’s scorching hot during the day ☀️, then windy and cold at night, with huge temperature swings. Dressing is a real challenge. There are tons of mosquitoes in forests and near lakes 🦟. They’re big and bite hard, making outdoor hiking miserable. Scenic area facilities are scarce. There are few supply points and basic rest areas. You often run out of water and snacks on the road, which seriously hurts the experience! 🍽️ Authentic Canadian food 🤤 The scenery is perfect, but the food is just okay 😋 🍁 Maple syrup pancakes | A national specialty! Sweet, soft, and rich in dairy flavor. A breakfast staple 🥩 Canadian steak | Tender, thick, juicy, and grilled over charcoal for great satisfaction 🐟 Deep-sea salmon | Firm, fresh, low-fat, and healthy. A local signature ingredient 🍟 Poutine cheese fries | Fries covered in cheese, salty and rich, a popular street snack 💡 Honest warnings 💣 Local dining is limited and mild in flavor. If you’re not used to Western food, you’ll get tired of it quickly! Scenic area restaurants are overpriced and portions vary. It’s best to bring extra snacks to avoid hunger on the road! 💡 Practical travel tips 📝 1. Be sure to apply for your visa in advance 📄! The process is complicated with many documents, and the rejection rate is not low. Allow plenty of time. 2. Prepare enough supplies for the whole self-driving trip! Bring water, snacks, and mosquito repellent. Supplies are scarce in mountain areas. 3. Dress in layers like an onion 🧥. A sun- and windproof jacket is essential to handle changing weather. 4. Stay away from deep forest areas. Follow scenic area rules and hike safely without taking risks. 5. Budget for taxes and tips on all expenses to avoid surprises at checkout. 6. Don’t rush your itinerary! Visit fewer attractions each day to ease fatigue from long drives. Canada’s beauty is pure, breathtaking mountain wilderness romance 🏔️! Snowy mountains, lakes, primeval forests, and healing wilderness. The scenery is flawless. But the long drives, high costs, unpredictable weather, and basic facilities are really tough for most people! It’s best suited for those who love the outdoors, can endure hardship, and have a generous budget. For most people, it’s not recommended to rush here blindly. Seeing the stunning scenery once is enough to remember for a lifetime!

#arrivalguide Visiting Grand Canyon National Park for the first time is an unforgettable experience, and a little planning makes the trip much smoother. I entered through the South Rim, which is the most popular area and offers easy access to scenic viewpoints, visitor services, and walking trails. Arrive early in the morning to avoid heavy traffic, find parking more easily, and enjoy cooler temperatures. Wear comfortable walking shoes, bring plenty of drinking water, sunscreen, and a hat, as the weather can become hot and dry, especially in summer. Keep your camera ready because the canyon views change beautifully throughout the day. Follow all safety signs and stay behind railings where provided, as the canyon edges can be dangerous. Spend time at several viewpoints instead of rushing through just one stop. Watching the sunrise or sunset over the canyon is an experience you won't forget and makes the visit even more rewarding. #arrivalguide #grandcanyonnationalpark #arizona #usa #nationalparks

#mytripvlog When people take a road trip, traveling between Los Angeles and Las Vegas along Interstate 15, the colorful installation art will catch travelers' eyes when passing through desert landscapes.

Who would have thought! Hidden in Canada is a small town favored by time 🌿, avoiding the crowded crowds of Toronto and Vancouver. Here, there is no commercial hustle and bustle, only European vintage style everywhere. This is Niagara-on-the-Lake, and the soul of the town—Queen Street—is definitely the pinnacle of short trips in Canada! Compared to the repetitive popular check-in spots in Canada, Queen Street focuses on an authentic vintage atmosphere and is also a local secret vacation treasure. Whether it's a couple's honeymoon, a trip with girlfriends, or a solo healing journey, this street can fulfill all your fantasies of a European small town. Once you visit, you'll be completely captivated ❤️ 📍 Overview Niagara-on-the-Lake is located on the banks of the Niagara River, adjacent to Niagara Falls, 1.5 hours by car from Toronto, and 40 minutes from Buffalo, New York. The entire town was once a century-old colonial stronghold. Queen Street, as the town's main artery, is only 1.2 kilometers long. The street isn't very long, but every inch of scenery is worth slowing down to savor. The whole street is dominated by Victorian vintage architecture, with neatly arranged colorful detached houses and vintage villas on both sides. The street is surrounded by lush greenery and flowers, with cherry blossoms in spring, roses in summer, and maple leaves in autumn, each season offering its own charm. Unlike the fast-food style commercialization of popular Canadian commercial streets, the shop density here is moderate, with no noisy tourist groups, quiet and relaxed, perfectly suited for a slow-paced trip. 🌟 Must-visit core check-in spots 1. Vintage Colorful Building Cluster [Top Photo Spot] The buildings along Queen Street span the 18th to 19th centuries, with detached houses in cream white, mint green, caramel brown, and creamy yellow scattered about. Carved window sills, vintage iron railings, and pointed attics make every snapshot look like a European movie scene 🎬 Recommended best photo spot: Around the mid-street city hall area, where there are fewer people and no cluttered modern buildings in the background.

Niche Unique Treasure Shops The entire street gathers dozens of specialty shops including cultural and creative stores, antiques, aromatherapy, handmade crafts, wineries, and clothing stores, rejecting the uniformity of Yiwu-style small commodities: · Antique Collection Store: Displays century-old vintage cameras, silverware, old oil paintings, and vintage records. Each old item carries a story of time. Antique lovers must not miss this; the niche collections offer great value for money; · Floral Handmade Shop: The store is wrapped in fresh flowers, focusing on dried flower decorations and preserved flower accessories. Prices are affordable, perfect for buying as travel souvenirs; · Local Winery Store: Niagara is a well-known Canadian ice wine region. The street-side winery stores offer free tastings of ice wine and dry red wine, and even beginners can learn wine tasting knowledge for free. 3. Century-old Theatre & Street Art Queen Street is home to Canada's long-established Shaw Festival Theatre, which has a history of over a century and stages plays, musicals, and stage dramas all year round. Compared to expensive theatre tickets in big cities, prices here are affordable (80-150 CAD per person), allowing an immersive experience of Western art and culture with a fully charged atmosphere. In addition, street performers are everywhere along the street, including violin solos, oil painting sketching, and vintage magic shows. Strolling the street, surrounded by melodious music, you can immerse yourself in a medieval European small town. 🍰 Food Exploration | Local Secret List Traveling to Queen Street is not complete without eating the right food!

Ice Cream Cafe A century-old handmade ice cream shop with more than ten fruit flavors, all made with local milk and fresh fruit. Highly recommend the ice wine flavor, a Niagara exclusive, sweet and refreshing with no artificial flavoring; 3. Riverside Western Restaurant Specializes in Western-style steak and seafood platters. Sitting in the outdoor dining area at dusk, enjoy dinner while watching the sunset over the Niagara River. The romance level is maxed out, perfect for couples. 📝 Comprehensive Travel Tips Best Travel Time From May to October every year! Flowers bloom in May and June with mild weather; September and October bring golden autumn with red and yellow maple leaves, doubling the vintage atmosphere—best time for photos; July and August are peak tourist seasons with more visitors. Transportation Guide ✅ Self-driving: 1.5 hours from downtown Toronto, plenty of free roadside parking, most convenient for self-driving; ✅ Public transport: Direct bus from Toronto to the town, walkable to explore Queen Street upon arrival; ✅ Combined trips: After visiting Queen Street, a 15-minute drive takes you to Niagara Falls, perfect for a one-day dual itinerary. Duration & Expenses Duration: 3-5 hours, half-day recommended, sunset views in the evening are the most beautiful; Expenses: Overall lower than downtown Toronto, dining averages 30-60 CAD per person, souvenirs average 10-50 CAD, offering much better value than popular tourist towns. Avoid Pitfalls 1. Most niche shops close by 6:00 PM, don’t go too late; 2. During peak season, occasional street vendors sell overpriced souvenirs, not recommended to buy; 3. Temperature difference by the river is large in the morning and evening, remember to bring a light jacket. 💬 Endnote Interaction After experiencing the bustling and lively Toronto, why not come to this quiet vintage town to relax yourself? Queen Street has no assembly-line tourist spots, only gentle old times and romantic everyday life. Anyone interested in unlocking this treasure town in Canada?

SAVE THIS! ⭐️General: Do not get an electric car because we wasted quite a bit of time finding charging points and waiting for the Tesla to fully charge. ⭐️Antelope Canyons: It is mandatory to book a tour for the Canyons. We chose Upper instead of Lower because it’s more picturesque and mostly flat while in Lower, you had to descend and ascend equivalent to 3-4 flights of stairs with ladders during the 600 meters walk. We booked a 1.5 hour tour but it only lasted 1 hour because we took a ride to and from the meet up point. Book a photography tour instead if you’d like to spend more time taking pictures. 1 hour was too short! ⭐️Horseshoe Bend: The hike to the viewpoint is about 2.4km round trip. Bring water and wear comfortable shoes. For the best photos, wide-angle lens are important to capture the entire bend in the river. ⭐️Grand Canyon: We chose South Rim instead of West Rim as the West is closer to Las Vegas so we could do a West Rim Helicopter ride next time we’re in Vegas. Besides, it is less developed and offers fewer amenities and viewpoints compared to the South Rim. It is $35 per private vehicle for a pass valid for 7 days. With 20 viewpoints accessible by vehicle, Mather Point, Yavapai Point, and Desert View are the best viewpoints. Use the free shuttle services available to explore different viewpoints without the hassle of driving and parking. #grouptravel

📍 Fontainebleau Las Vegas 2777 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109 Fontainebleau is one of the Strip’s newest mega-resorts—a 67-story, 3,600-plus room tower that feels more like a glossy fashion set than a casino lobby. Think marble rings of floor around giant rose sculptures, champagne-gold chandeliers, and long blue hallways that look designed for slow-motion entrance videos. It’s all very “Miami meets north Strip,” with the bow-tie logo repeating in the ceilings, carpets, and even the driveway lights. Beyond the looks, this place is built to be a full-service base: a 170,000-square-foot casino, dozens of restaurants and bars (many first-to-market concepts), and rooms that lean soft blue and grey with big windows facing either the Strip or the mountains. If you’re here for conventions, it’s right by the Las Vegas Convention Center; if you’re here for nightlife, the BleauLive Theater and on-site clubs keep the energy inside the building so you don’t have to chase Ubers up and down the Strip. #lasvegas #fontainebleau #travel

#itinerarycheck First time in Vegas? Don’t try to see everything ,pick the hotels that are actually worth stopping for. This route covers the most iconic ones: 🚕 Start: Luxor Hotel & Casino 🇪🇬 Getting there: Uber/taxi is easiest. You can also use the free Mandalay Bay–Luxor–Excalibur tram. 👀 Look for: the giant pyramid, Sphinx and the incredible pyramid interior. ❤️New York-New York 🗽 👀 Look for: Statue of Liberty replica, NYC skyline and the Big Apple Coaster. ⭐ Worth a photo stop. ❤️Paris Las Vegas 🇫🇷 👀 Look for: the Eiffel Tower replica and Paris-style streets. ❤️Bellagio ⭐ 👀 Look for: the famous fountains outside and the free Conservatory & Botanical Gardens inside. ⭐ One of the best stops on the Strip. ❤️Caesars Palace 🏛️ ⭐ 👀 Look for: Roman statues, fountains and the impressive Forum Shops. ❤️The Venetian 🇮🇹 ⭐ 👀 Look for: indoor canals, gondolas, painted ceilings and the Grand Canal Shoppes. ⭐ A perfect place to finish. 🚝 Getting around: The Strip is walkable, but distances are deceptive. If your feet give up: · Use the paid Las Vegas Monorail for longer journeys · Use free hotel trams where available: ✔️ Mandalay Bay ↔ Luxor ↔ Excalibur ✔️ Bellagio ↔ Vdara ↔ ARIA 💡 Allow around 4–6 hours with photo stops, or make it a full day if you add food, shopping or attractions. Which hotel would you want to see first? 🎰

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

Awana Spa at Resorts World is a good choice for travelers who want a wellness experience with several distinct spaces. The Fountain of Youth creates a dramatic centerpiece, while the Laconium Room offers a warm, quieter environment for slowing down. The locker area also makes it easier to change, store belongings, and prepare without feeling rushed. When booking, check which amenities are included and whether any rooms require a specific treatment or spa pass. Arriving early is especially useful because Resorts World is large and the route from parking or rideshare drop-off can take longer than expected. The combination of water features, warm rooms, and softly lit interiors makes this an easy place to recharge before returning to restaurants, shows, and other Las Vegas activities. #staycation#thingstodo#resorts

Touring hotels has become a signature activity in the gambling city. The most popular is the Bellagio, which features a free indoor conservatory garden in its lobby. Surrounded by colorful flowers and sculptures, it feels like stepping into a real-life fairy tale world~

There is nothing quite like summer in Las Vegas! From the shimmering heat on the Strip to the extravagant stay in the resorts, this trip was one for the books. ✨ Living like royal at The Venetian We stayed in a gorgeous suite at The Venetian, and it completely lived up to the hype. The attention to detail inside the hotel is unreal—the indoor canals, the stunning waterfall displays, and the grand floral gown installations made it feel like we were walking through a dream. 🏊♂️ Weekend DJ pool party When you're in Vegas during the summer, pool days are non-negotiable. We spent hours soaking up the sun and cooling off in the waters surrounded by palm trees. On the weekend, there is always DJ playing for the party. When we weren't poolside, we were taking in some incredible bird's-eye views of the iconic Strip, looking out over Treasure Island and the glittering gold Trump tower. 🎭 Strip Nights One of the absolute highlights was watching the gondolas glide along the vibrant blue outdoor canals under the bright desert sky. As the sun set, the city really came alive. From the neon lights of Gilley's to the stunning architecture of the Palazzo, Vegas at night is just pure magic.

As a long-time pass holder of heritage museums & gardens 🤝 I’ve seen it improve year after year. From just having portable restrooms a few years ago to now having very clean, fancy large restrooms, I have to say the membership fee is worth it. I’ve been to many gardens nearby, but this one never gets old! Every time I stroll around, I feel great and get perfect photos. Different flowers and plants bloom at different times, so there’s always something to capture👌🏻 The hydrangea festival is about to bloom soon, many are already open. I love taking photos and will keep coming back to shoot

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

Many travelers hit pitfalls on their first day in New York in August! This guide to avoiding common mistakes is recommended for early saving☀️ If you’re planning to visit New York in August, it’s best to read this first. August in New York is really different from other seasons. Preparing ahead will make your experience much better. 🌤️【August weather in New York】 August is the hottest time of the year in New York. ✔️Daytime temperatures usually range from 27 to 35℃, and can be even higher during heat waves. ✔️Indoor places like malls, subways, and restaurants have strong air conditioning, so the temperature difference is noticeable. Recommended to bring: · Short sleeves, quick-dry shirts, shorts, or lightweight long pants · Sun hat, sunglasses, sunscreen · A lightweight jacket for when you enter air-conditioned indoor spaces 🎫【Tips for popular attractions】 📍Statue of Liberty Try to take the ferry in the morning when it’s less crowded. Afternoon lines are usually longer. 📍SUMMIT One Vanderbilt Evening visits are recommended to see the daytime view, sunset, and New York night skyline all at once. 📍The Edge Great for photos, especially on clear days with excellent views. 📍The Metropolitan Museum of Art The museum is very large. It’s best to decide which exhibits you want to see in advance, or you won’t finish in one day. 📍Central Park Perfect for walking, biking, or picnicking in summer. It’s also a popular weekend spot for many New Yorkers. 📍Brooklyn Bridge Best to visit early morning or late afternoon. The midday sun is strong, and photos are less comfortable to take. 🗓️【Recommended itinerary】 D1: Arrive in New York. Walk around Times Square and Broadway to adjust to the time difference. D2: Central Park → Metropolitan Museum of Art → Fifth Avenue → Rockefeller Center → SUMMIT for night views. D3: Statue of Liberty → Wall Street → 9/11 Memorial Plaza → Brooklyn Bridge → DUMBO. D4: High Line Park → Chelsea Market → Little Island → The Edge → Hudson River for sunset. D5: Travel from New York to Philadelphia.

Enjoy the waterfall light show at night. D8: Travel from Niagara Falls to Boston. Visit Harvard University, MIT, Quincy Market, Freedom Trail. D9: Return to New York via New Haven. Visit Yale University and Beinecke Rare Book Library along the way. 💡【Details often overlooked when visiting New York in August】 ✅ Distances between attractions are farther than expected. Avoid scheduling too many places in one day. ✅ The hottest time is 2 PM to 5 PM. Plan indoor visits to museums, malls, and other indoor spots during this period. ✅ Summer is peak travel season. It’s best to book tickets for popular observation decks and Statue of Liberty ferries in advance.

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

Destination Introduction Ah-Shi-Sle-Pah Wilderness Study Area, located in Bloomfield, San Juan County, New Mexico, USA, is a hidden desert treasure in North America.

Travel Tips: Gas stations are scarce along the way; fill up the tank before departure; no public transportation available, self-driving only 4.

In the early morning, mist covers the iconic mushroom rocks, creating a full atmospheric vibe. Photography Tips: Use a wide-angle lens for panoramic canyon shots and a telephoto lens to compress rock layers; wear bright red, orange, or yellow clothing to contrast with the earth-yellow and orange-red rock walls for striking photos. 2. Fossil Valley Trail | Jurassic Archaeological Site The trail surface is scattered with numerous dinosaur bone fossils visible up close, but strict rules apply: · Maintain a 1.5-meter safe distance from fossils; no stepping on or climbing the rock layers · You may bring a small brush to clean off loose dirt for a simple archaeological experience; it is illegal to remove any fossils · The ground clay is soft; stay on existing trails and avoid stepping on soil slopes 3. Alien Canyon | Sci-Fi Filming Location The most famous spot in the entire park, with fluorescent orange, mint green, and creamy white multi-layered rocks interwoven, creating a surreal color clash like an alien surface. ⚠️ Safety Reminder: The rock walls are loose and prone to collapse; strictly follow marked routes and do not venture deep into the canyon. 🌌 Night Tour Exclusive: Desert Milky Way Starry Night Far from city light pollution, the entire wilderness reveals the full Milky Way to the naked eye at night. The rock pillars framed against the starry sky create a powerful visual impact. Photography Gear: Tripod, large aperture camera, headlamp; use long exposure of 10–15 seconds, ISO 1600–3200 to easily capture stunning star trails.

💎Overseas secret wild ambassador | California Fort Bragg glass beach film-style travel guide Destination: Glass Beach at MacKerricher State Park, Fort Bragg, California. Once a city dump site, decades of ocean waves have polished it into a coast of sparkling sea glass. A must-stop natural hidden gem on the Highway 1 road trip. 🚗 Two travel options Drive north from San Francisco along CA-1 Highway. The drive takes about 3.5 hours with Pacific cliffside ocean views all along the way, where you can stop anytime to enjoy the scenery. There is a small free parking lot at the beach’s end. Parking is limited during peak season, so try to arrive before 9 AM. Paid parking in the state park costs US$10 per day. If you don’t have a car, you can take the Greyhound bus to Fort Bragg town, then a 10-minute taxi ride to the beach. The total trip takes 6 to 8 hours. Local carpool or day tours are also options. 📸 Four main highlights ✨ Rainbow sea glass beach: White and green sea glass are most common. Red and blue are rare and only fully visible at low tide when the entire tidal flat is exposed. The coast is divided into three beach areas. Beach 3 has the largest amount of sea glass and the best viewing. A gentle coastal boardwalk lets you see small marine creatures like crabs and sea anemones in tide pools. Stop by the Skunk vintage forest train and the colorful seaside fairy-tale town of Mendocino. The golden hour from 3 PM to 5 PM offers soft backlighting. Wet sea glass becomes translucent and reflective, perfect for atmospheric film-style photos. 🦋 Fun experiences Hunt for smooth sea glass on the tidal flats, take a leisurely walk along the coastline, ride the vintage train through redwood forests, and capture breathtaking ocean views from the cliffs. 🍤 Local food options In Fort Bragg town, enjoy fresh seafood, classic clam chowder, American burgers with craft beer, authentic Mexican tacos, or bring your own ingredients for a picnic by the sea. 🏡 Two types of accommodations ▫️ Fort Bragg town: Well-developed with plenty of sea view vacation rentals and convenient daily shopping. ▫️ Mendocino town: Rich in artistic atmosphere with stylish seaside cabins, ideal for a slow-paced, immersive vacation. 💡 Essential travel tips The beach is covered with glass shards, so wear non-slip, durable hiking shoes to protect your feet from cuts. Northern California’s coast is windy year-round with cooler temperatures, so bring a windbreaker and high-SPF sunscreen. Check the tide schedule before you go. Low tide is the only time to see large areas of sea glass. California state parks strictly prohibit collecting or removing sea glass. Violators face heavy fines. Photography is allowed. There are no shops or restaurants on the beach. Bring your own drinking water and snacks.

#itinerarycheck This is the signature Bryce hike and the combination route (Queen’s Garden down, Navajo Loop up via Wall Street) is the right way to do it—everyone says so and they are correct. I started at Sunrise Point at 7 am in late September, descended Queen’s Garden first (cooler, softer light on the hoodoos, fewer people coming up at you), reached the Queen’s Garden formation in 40 minutes, then continued to the Navajo Loop junction and climbed out through Wall Street. Total 5.3 km, 330 m elevation regain, 2 hours 15 with constant stopping. By 9:30 the Wall Street slot was in shadow and gorgeous; by 11 the whole amphitheater was flat midday light and the parking lot at Sunrise Point was full with a ranger directing cars. Bryce entrance is $35/vehicle, 7 days, card accepted at the booth. The shuttle runs from the visitor center to Sunrise/Sunset Points in season, but if you have a car just park at Sunrise Point and start there—the shuttle saves nothing in the early morning because it does not run until 8. Water: one bottle minimum even in autumn; the climb out of Navajo is switchbacked sand and sucks the moisture out of you. Boots help—the Queen’s Garden tread is sandy and the Wall Street stairs are worn limestone with drop-offs, fine in dry weather, slick after rain or frost. In winter Wall Street closes for ice and you must return via Two Bridges, adding 1 km. Lodging inside the park (Bryce Canyon Lodge) books 6–12 months ahead; outside, Ruby’s Inn takes cards and has an ATM that ran out of cash on a Friday night when I was there, so do not rely on it. Food at Ruby’s is overpriced diner fare—stock snacks in Panguitch (30 minutes south) where prices are normal. One mistake: I originally planned Navajo down + Queen’s Garden up, which means climbing the Wall Street stairs at the start when legs are fresh but descending the sandy switchbacks at the end when they are not—either works, but the conventional order gives you the better photographic direction and the harder climb in cooler air. For itinerary flow, Bryce pairs naturally with a sunset at Inspiration Point (5 minutes away, wheelchair-accessible overlook) the evening before, and a dawn at Sunrise Point the same day you hike. Trying to add Mossy Cave or Fairyland Loop on the same day as Navajo/Queen’s is overkill—Bryce rewards slow looking, not mileage. Has anyone done the full Figure 8 (Navajo + Queen’s + Peek-a-Boo) in one morning without regretting it by noon?

Summer in Seattle is all about the big forest and cycling—the perfect match! Today, I’m recommending a super healing cycling route where you won’t get sunburned at all, plus a hidden river spot. Over 90% of the route is shaded by forest, perfect for wearing just a sports tank top or even a swimsuit underneath and heading out directly. 🧭【Basic Route Info】 🚲 Cycling Trail: Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT for short) 📍 Start: Tolt-MacDonald Park (in the town of Carnation) 📍 End: Snoqualmie Falls (return as you wish based on your stamina) 📍【Beginner-Friendly Guide & Tips】 🚗 Free Parking: Navigate directly to the start at Tolt-MacDonald Park. There’s plenty of free parking here! Don’t navigate directly to the end at Snoqualmie Falls—it’s crowded and you might get a ticket. 📸 Start Check-in Landmark: At the park entrance, there’s a very eye-catching red vintage suspension bridge (the SVT is converted from old railway lines). You can walk up and take photos of the river before setting off. 🚲 Route Tip: Google Maps usually directs you to the nearby main road. Be sure to manually drag the route onto the Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT)! It’s a converted abandoned railway, with a very wide and smooth path, and all the scenery is inside the forest. ⚡ Energy-Saving Suggestion: Although there are no big hills, the trail is compacted gravel, so riding an e-bike is recommended to save energy for taking beautiful photos. 🍓【$3 per Pound Raspberry Freedom】 Next to the start park is Remlinger Farms, and July is perfect for raspberry picking! Self-service U-Pick is only $3 per pound (a small box in the supermarket usually costs $10). The freshly picked berries dripping with dew are super sweet! ⚠️ The farm closes at 5 PM, so plan your return ride accordingly. 👙【Regretted Not Bringing a Swimsuit Hidden River Spot】 Just 2 minutes cycling from the start, there’s a super hidden water play spot (location marked on map X). The river water is crystal clear and ice-cold. Under the bridge, there’s even a river swing, with many hot guys and girls enjoying drifting and paddleboarding. I wasn’t prepared this time, so I could only watch from the shore and secretly vowed to come next time wearing a swimsuit. 💡【Travel Tips】 Navigation: Tolt-MacDonald Park Gear: Sunglasses, mosquito repellent, and your swimsuit/change of clothes! Security: It’s best to bring a bike lock. Although at the time, a dozen bikes by the river were unlocked and everyone was very chill, it’s safer to lock up just in case.

Mooney Falls is the definition of adventure in Arizona! 💦💙 You’ll find this epic beauty tucked away in the magical Havasupai region of the Grand Canyon. To get there, you’ll need to hike down steep, almost vertical cliffs using chains and ladders—talk about living your best daredevil life! The journey is totally wild, but that first glimpse of Mooney Falls crashing 200 feet down into turquoise pools is absolutely worth it. 🤯 Surrounded by red rock walls and lush greenery, this is truly an Insta-perfect spot. Bring your waterproof gear—you’ll want to snap some insane pics and maybe even take a dip to cool off. Just remember: you need a permit (from the official Havasupai Tribe website) and the trail is only open from February to November. No casual drop-ins here, fam! Location: Mooney Falls, Havasupai Falls, Supai, AZ 86435 Best Time: Early morning for fewer crowds and dreamy lighting Hours: Open February–November (permit required) Honestly, this is one of those bucket-list adventures you’ll never forget. Grab your squad, pack those hiking shoes, and get ready for a waterfall experience that’s 100% Arizona legend status! 💙✨ Ready to plan? Find more inspo and book Grand Canyon stays on trip.com!

Canada 🇨🇦 is great, but I won’t go back 🌲 because it’s really tough on travelers Just got back from the Canada loop 😭! Honestly, here’s the real deal! The scenery is absolutely stunning! Snow-capped mountains, lakes, and forests are like wallpapers everywhere ✨, but the trip is really exhausting and grueling! Spending money while suffering, rushing from place to place, the experience is extremely polarized. Once is enough! 🚗 Transportation tips 🗺️ Here’s a real no-fail guide to avoid pitfalls ✅ Canada’s biggest challenge: the land is ridiculously huge 💥! Cities and attractions are very far apart. Driving between Toronto, Vancouver, and Banff takes 3–4 hours each way! You basically have to drive yourself the whole time. There’s no reliable public transportation, so independent travel is almost impossible! 🚙 Many pitfalls with self-driving: Car rental prices double in peak season, and popular models are hard to book even two weeks in advance! Mountain roads are common, and some areas have no signal 📶. You must download offline maps in advance. If you’re unfamiliar with the roads, driving is really risky. 🚄 Intercity transport is very poor value. Tickets are expensive, schedules are limited, and wait times are long. ⚠️ Hidden costs to watch out for: All prices exclude tax! At checkout, 12%–13% tax is automatically added. Meals and taxis also require a mandatory 15%–20% tip 💸, so it’s easy to overspend! Don’t book hotels in the core of scenic areas! Banff hotels are outrageously priced in peak season. Staying in nearby towns can save you half the cost! 🌿 Real travel experience ✨ Honestly! Canada’s natural beauty is truly unmatched 💯! Lake Louise and Moraine Lake have crystal-clear blue water 💎, the Rocky Mountains are covered in endless snow ❄️, Niagara Falls is grand and breathtaking, and the forest air cures all anxiety! Few people, pristine scenery, and completely uncommercialized natural beauty. But it’s also really tough on travelers 😮‍💨! You spend most of your day in the car, sitting so long your back and waist hurt. It’s pure “sit and watch the scenery”! The weather in August and September is crazy. It’s scorching hot during the day ☀️, then windy and cold at night, with huge temperature swings. Dressing is a real challenge. There are tons of mosquitoes in forests and near lakes 🦟. They’re big and bite hard, making outdoor hiking miserable. Scenic area facilities are scarce. There are few supply points and basic rest areas. You often run out of water and snacks on the road, which seriously hurts the experience! 🍽️ Authentic Canadian food 🤤 The scenery is perfect, but the food is just okay 😋 🍁 Maple syrup pancakes | A national specialty! Sweet, soft, and rich in dairy flavor. A breakfast staple 🥩 Canadian steak | Tender, thick, juicy, and grilled over charcoal for great satisfaction 🐟 Deep-sea salmon | Firm, fresh, low-fat, and healthy. A local signature ingredient 🍟 Poutine cheese fries | Fries covered in cheese, salty and rich, a popular street snack 💡 Honest warnings 💣 Local dining is limited and mild in flavor. If you’re not used to Western food, you’ll get tired of it quickly! Scenic area restaurants are overpriced and portions vary.

#arrivalguide Visiting Grand Canyon National Park for the first time is an unforgettable experience, and a little planning makes the trip much smoother. I entered through the South Rim, which is the most popular area and offers easy access to scenic viewpoints, visitor services, and walking trails. Arrive early in the morning to avoid heavy traffic, find parking more easily, and enjoy cooler temperatures. Wear comfortable walking shoes, bring plenty of drinking water, sunscreen, and a hat, as the weather can become hot and dry, especially in summer. Keep your camera ready because the canyon views change beautifully throughout the day. Follow all safety signs and stay behind railings where provided, as the canyon edges can be dangerous. Spend time at several viewpoints instead of rushing through just one stop. Watching the sunrise or sunset over the canyon is an experience you won't forget and makes the visit even more rewarding. #arrivalguide #grandcanyonnationalpark #arizona #usa #nationalparks

#mytripvlog When people take a road trip, traveling between Los Angeles and Las Vegas along Interstate 15, the colorful installation art will catch travelers' eyes when passing through desert landscapes.

Who would have thought! Hidden in Canada is a small town favored by time 🌿, avoiding the crowded crowds of Toronto and Vancouver. Here, there is no commercial hustle and bustle, only European vintage style everywhere. This is Niagara-on-the-Lake, and the soul of the town—Queen Street—is definitely the pinnacle of short trips in Canada! Compared to the repetitive popular check-in spots in Canada, Queen Street focuses on an authentic vintage atmosphere and is also a local secret vacation treasure. Whether it's a couple's honeymoon, a trip with girlfriends, or a solo healing journey, this street can fulfill all your fantasies of a European small town. Once you visit, you'll be completely captivated ❤️ 📍 Overview Niagara-on-the-Lake is located on the banks of the Niagara River, adjacent to Niagara Falls, 1.5 hours by car from Toronto, and 40 minutes from Buffalo, New York. The entire town was once a century-old colonial stronghold. Queen Street, as the town's main artery, is only 1.2 kilometers long. The street isn't very long, but every inch of scenery is worth slowing down to savor. The whole street is dominated by Victorian vintage architecture, with neatly arranged colorful detached houses and vintage villas on both sides. The street is surrounded by lush greenery and flowers, with cherry blossoms in spring, roses in summer, and maple leaves in autumn, each season offering its own charm. Unlike the fast-food style commercialization of popular Canadian commercial streets, the shop density here is moderate, with no noisy tourist groups, quiet and relaxed, perfectly suited for a slow-paced trip. 🌟 Must-visit core check-in spots 1. Vintage Colorful Building Cluster [Top Photo Spot] The buildings along Queen Street span the 18th to 19th centuries, with detached houses in cream white, mint green, caramel brown, and creamy yellow scattered about. Carved window sills, vintage iron railings, and pointed attics make every snapshot look like a European movie scene 🎬 Recommended best photo spot: Around the mid-street city hall area, where there are fewer people and no cluttered modern buildings in the background. On sunny days, the light and shadow atmosphere is perfect! Outfit suggestions include light-colored long dresses, French-style trench coats, and vintage suits, suitable for all styles with a 100% chance of great photos. 2. Niche Unique Treasure Shops The entire street gathers dozens of specialty shops including cultural and creative stores, antiques, aromatherapy, handmade crafts, wineries, and clothing stores, rejecting the uniformity of Yiwu-style small commodities: · Antique Collection Store: Displays century-old vintage cameras, silverware, old oil paintings, and vintage records. Each old item carries a story of time. Antique lovers must not miss this; the niche collections offer great value for money; · Floral Handmade Shop: The store is wrapped in fresh flowers, focusing on dried flower decorations and preserved flower accessories. Prices are affordable, perfect for buying as travel souvenirs; · Local Winery Store: Niagara is a well-known Canadian ice wine region. The street-side winery stores offer free tastings of ice wine and dry red wine, and even beginners can learn wine tasting knowledge for free. 3. Century-old Theatre & Street Art Queen Street is home to Canada's long-established Shaw Festival Theatre, which has a history of over a century and stages plays, musicals, and stage dramas all year round. Compared to expensive theatre tickets in big cities, prices here are affordable (80-150 CAD per person), allowing an immersive experience of Western art and culture with a fully charged atmosphere. In addition, street performers are everywhere along the street, including violin solos, oil painting sketching, and vintage magic shows. Strolling the street, surrounded by melodious music, you can immerse yourself in a medieval European small town. 🍰 Food Exploration | Local Secret List Traveling to Queen Street is not complete without eating the right food! Avoid the tourist traps and here’s a list of real treasure shops: 1. The Bench Market Cafe The town’s top French brunch spot 🔥, must-try Eggs Benedict and crispy waffles paired with fresh raspberries and blueberries. Rich and creamy without being greasy. Window seats face the vintage street scene, perfect for coffee and sunbathing, unlocking the European slow life. Average cost 25 CAD per person; 2. Ice Cream Cafe A century-old handmade ice cream shop with more than ten fruit flavors, all made with local milk and fresh fruit. Highly recommend the ice wine flavor, a Niagara exclusive, sweet and refreshing with no artificial flavoring; 3. Riverside Western Restaurant Specializes in Western-style steak and seafood platters. Sitting in the outdoor dining area at dusk, enjoy dinner while watching the sunset over the Niagara River. The romance level is maxed out, perfect for couples. 📝 Comprehensive Travel Tips Best Travel Time From May to October every year! Flowers bloom in May and June with mild weather; September and October bring golden autumn with red and yellow maple leaves, doubling the vintage atmosphere—best time for photos; July and August are peak tourist seasons with more visitors. Transportation Guide ✅ Self-driving: 1.5 hours from downtown Toronto, plenty of free roadside parking, most convenient for self-driving; ✅ Public transport: Direct bus from Toronto to the town, walkable to explore Queen Street upon arrival; ✅ Combined trips: After visiting Queen Street, a 15-minute drive takes you to Niagara Falls, perfect for a one-day dual itinerary. Duration & Expenses Duration: 3-5 hours, half-day recommended, sunset views in the evening are the most beautiful; Expenses: Overall lower than downtown Toronto, dining averages 30-60 CAD per person, souvenirs average 10-50 CAD, offering much better value than popular tourist towns. Avoid Pitfalls 1. Most niche shops close by 6:00 PM, don’t go too late; 2. During peak season, occasional street vendors sell overpriced souvenirs, not recommended to buy; 3. Temperature difference by the river is large in the morning and evening, remember to bring a light jacket. 💬 Endnote Interaction After experiencing the bustling and lively Toronto, why not come to this quiet vintage town to relax yourself? Queen Street has no assembly-line tourist spots, only gentle old times and romantic everyday life. Anyone interested in unlocking this treasure town in Canada?

SAVE THIS! ⭐️General: Do not get an electric car because we wasted quite a bit of time finding charging points and waiting for the Tesla to fully charge. ⭐️Antelope Canyons: It is mandatory to book a tour for the Canyons. We chose Upper instead of Lower because it’s more picturesque and mostly flat while in Lower, you had to descend and ascend equivalent to 3-4 flights of stairs with ladders during the 600 meters walk. We booked a 1.5 hour tour but it only lasted 1 hour because we took a ride to and from the meet up point. Book a photography tour instead if you’d like to spend more time taking pictures. 1 hour was too short! ⭐️Horseshoe Bend: The hike to the viewpoint is about 2.4km round trip. Bring water and wear comfortable shoes. For the best photos, wide-angle lens are important to capture the entire bend in the river. ⭐️Grand Canyon: We chose South Rim instead of West Rim as the West is closer to Las Vegas so we could do a West Rim Helicopter ride next time we’re in Vegas. Besides, it is less developed and offers fewer amenities and viewpoints compared to the South Rim. It is $35 per private vehicle for a pass valid for 7 days. With 20 viewpoints accessible by vehicle, Mather Point, Yavapai Point, and Desert View are the best viewpoints. Use the free shuttle services available to explore different viewpoints without the hassle of driving and parking. #grouptravel

📍 Fontainebleau Las Vegas 2777 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109 Fontainebleau is one of the Strip’s newest mega-resorts—a 67-story, 3,600-plus room tower that feels more like a glossy fashion set than a casino lobby. Think marble rings of floor around giant rose sculptures, champagne-gold chandeliers, and long blue hallways that look designed for slow-motion entrance videos. It’s all very “Miami meets north Strip,” with the bow-tie logo repeating in the ceilings, carpets, and even the driveway lights. Beyond the looks, this place is built to be a full-service base: a 170,000-square-foot casino, dozens of restaurants and bars (many first-to-market concepts), and rooms that lean soft blue and grey with big windows facing either the Strip or the mountains. If you’re here for conventions, it’s right by the Las Vegas Convention Center; if you’re here for nightlife, the BleauLive Theater and on-site clubs keep the energy inside the building so you don’t have to chase Ubers up and down the Strip. #lasvegas #fontainebleau #travel

#itinerarycheck First time in Vegas? Don’t try to see everything ,pick the hotels that are actually worth stopping for. This route covers the most iconic ones: 🚕 Start: Luxor Hotel & Casino 🇪🇬 Getting there: Uber/taxi is easiest. You can also use the free Mandalay Bay–Luxor–Excalibur tram. 👀 Look for: the giant pyramid, Sphinx and the incredible pyramid interior. ❤️New York-New York 🗽 👀 Look for: Statue of Liberty replica, NYC skyline and the Big Apple Coaster. ⭐ Worth a photo stop. ❤️Paris Las Vegas 🇫🇷 👀 Look for: the Eiffel Tower replica and Paris-style streets. ❤️Bellagio ⭐ 👀 Look for: the famous fountains outside and the free Conservatory & Botanical Gardens inside. ⭐ One of the best stops on the Strip. ❤️Caesars Palace 🏛️ ⭐ 👀 Look for: Roman statues, fountains and the impressive Forum Shops. ❤️The Venetian 🇮🇹 ⭐ 👀 Look for: indoor canals, gondolas, painted ceilings and the Grand Canal Shoppes. ⭐ A perfect place to finish. 🚝 Getting around: The Strip is walkable, but distances are deceptive. If your feet give up: · Use the paid Las Vegas Monorail for longer journeys · Use free hotel trams where available: ✔️ Mandalay Bay ↔ Luxor ↔ Excalibur ✔️ Bellagio ↔ Vdara ↔ ARIA 💡 Allow around 4–6 hours with photo stops, or make it a full day if you add food, shopping or attractions. Which hotel would you want to see first? 🎰

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

Awana Spa at Resorts World is a good choice for travelers who want a wellness experience with several distinct spaces. The Fountain of Youth creates a dramatic centerpiece, while the Laconium Room offers a warm, quieter environment for slowing down. The locker area also makes it easier to change, store belongings, and prepare without feeling rushed. When booking, check which amenities are included and whether any rooms require a specific treatment or spa pass. Arriving early is especially useful because Resorts World is large and the route from parking or rideshare drop-off can take longer than expected. The combination of water features, warm rooms, and softly lit interiors makes this an easy place to recharge before returning to restaurants, shows, and other Las Vegas activities. #staycation#thingstodo#resorts

Touring hotels has become a signature activity in the gambling city. The most popular is the Bellagio, which features a free indoor conservatory garden in its lobby. Surrounded by colorful flowers and sculptures, it feels like stepping into a real-life fairy tale world~

There is nothing quite like summer in Las Vegas! From the shimmering heat on the Strip to the extravagant stay in the resorts, this trip was one for the books. ✨ Living like royal at The Venetian We stayed in a gorgeous suite at The Venetian, and it completely lived up to the hype. The attention to detail inside the hotel is unreal—the indoor canals, the stunning waterfall displays, and the grand floral gown installations made it feel like we were walking through a dream. 🏊♂️ Weekend DJ pool party When you're in Vegas during the summer, pool days are non-negotiable. We spent hours soaking up the sun and cooling off in the waters surrounded by palm trees. On the weekend, there is always DJ playing for the party. When we weren't poolside, we were taking in some incredible bird's-eye views of the iconic Strip, looking out over Treasure Island and the glittering gold Trump tower. 🎭 Strip Nights One of the absolute highlights was watching the gondolas glide along the vibrant blue outdoor canals under the bright desert sky. As the sun set, the city really came alive. From the neon lights of Gilley's to the stunning architecture of the Palazzo, Vegas at night is just pure magic.

As a long-time pass holder of heritage museums & gardens 🤝 I’ve seen it improve year after year. From just having portable restrooms a few years ago to now having very clean, fancy large restrooms, I have to say the membership fee is worth it. I’ve been to many gardens nearby, but this one never gets old! Every time I stroll around, I feel great and get perfect photos. Different flowers and plants bloom at different times, so there’s always something to capture👌🏻 The hydrangea festival is about to bloom soon, many are already open. I love taking photos and will keep coming back to shoot

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing.

Many travelers hit pitfalls on their first day in New York in August! This guide to avoiding common mistakes is recommended for early saving☀️ If you’re planning to visit New York in August, it’s best to read this first. August in New York is really different from other seasons. Preparing ahead will make your experience much better. 🌤️【August weather in New York】 August is the hottest time of the year in New York. ✔️Daytime temperatures usually range from 27 to 35℃, and can be even higher during heat waves. ✔️Indoor places like malls, subways, and restaurants have strong air conditioning, so the temperature difference is noticeable. Recommended to bring: · Short sleeves, quick-dry shirts, shorts, or lightweight long pants · Sun hat, sunglasses, sunscreen · A lightweight jacket for when you enter air-conditioned indoor spaces 🎫【Tips for popular attractions】 📍Statue of Liberty Try to take the ferry in the morning when it’s less crowded. Afternoon lines are usually longer. 📍SUMMIT One Vanderbilt Evening visits are recommended to see the daytime view, sunset, and New York night skyline all at once. 📍The Edge Great for photos, especially on clear days with excellent views. 📍The Metropolitan Museum of Art The museum is very large. It’s best to decide which exhibits you want to see in advance, or you won’t finish in one day. 📍Central Park Perfect for walking, biking, or picnicking in summer. It’s also a popular weekend spot for many New Yorkers. 📍Brooklyn Bridge Best to visit early morning or late afternoon. The midday sun is strong, and photos are less comfortable to take. 🗓️【Recommended itinerary】 D1: Arrive in New York. Walk around Times Square and Broadway to adjust to the time difference. D2: Central Park → Metropolitan Museum of Art → Fifth Avenue → Rockefeller Center → SUMMIT for night views. D3: Statue of Liberty → Wall Street → 9/11 Memorial Plaza → Brooklyn Bridge → DUMBO. D4: High Line Park → Chelsea Market → Little Island → The Edge → Hudson River for sunset. D5: Travel from New York to Philadelphia. Visit Independence Hall, Liberty Bell, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia Museum of Art. D6: Travel from Philadelphia to Washington, D.C. Tour the White House, Lincoln Memorial, Capitol Building, National Mall. D7: Travel from Washington to Niagara Falls. Stop at Corning Museum of Glass on the way. Enjoy the waterfall light show at night. D8: Travel from Niagara Falls to Boston. Visit Harvard University, MIT, Quincy Market, Freedom Trail. D9: Return to New York via New Haven. Visit Yale University and Beinecke Rare Book Library along the way. 💡【Details often overlooked when visiting New York in August】 ✅ Distances between attractions are farther than expected. Avoid scheduling too many places in one day. ✅ The hottest time is 2 PM to 5 PM. Plan indoor visits to museums, malls, and other indoor spots during this period. ✅ Summer is peak travel season. It’s best to book tickets for popular observation decks and Statue of Liberty ferries in advance.

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

Destination Introduction Ah-Shi-Sle-Pah Wilderness Study Area, located in Bloomfield, San Juan County, New Mexico, USA, is a hidden desert treasure in North America. Featuring stunning alien-like colorful Danxia landforms, ancient dinosaur fossils, and a starry sky free from light pollution, it is also a filming location for the TV series "The Mandalorian." Known as the real-life lunar wilderness and a natural set for Western sci-fi blockbusters. 📍Basic Information Full Address: Ah-Shi-Sle-Pah Wilderness Study Area, Bloomfield, NM 87413 Admission: Free, no reservation required Facilities: No shops, restrooms, or supply stations throughout; no cell phone signal; must download offline maps and carry satellite GPS in advance 🚗 Transportation Guide 1. Departure City: About 3.5 hours drive from Albuquerque 2. Road Conditions: The last 10 miles are gravel and dirt roads, bumpy and full of potholes; a four-wheel drive or high-clearance off-road vehicle is required; regular cars are very likely to scrape the bottom 3. Travel Tips: Gas stations are scarce along the way; fill up the tank before departure; no public transportation available, self-driving only 4. Best Photography Times: 2 hours after sunrise and 1.5 hours before sunset for the most saturated rock colors; at night, you can shoot the desert Milky Way starry sky 🗺️ Three Core Routes 1. Badlands Overlook | 360° Danxia Panorama The highest point in the area, surrounded by colorful rock pillars in a ring. In the early morning, mist covers the iconic mushroom rocks, creating a full atmospheric vibe. Photography Tips: Use a wide-angle lens for panoramic canyon shots and a telephoto lens to compress rock layers; wear bright red, orange, or yellow clothing to contrast with the earth-yellow and orange-red rock walls for striking photos. 2. Fossil Valley Trail | Jurassic Archaeological Site The trail surface is scattered with numerous dinosaur bone fossils visible up close, but strict rules apply: · Maintain a 1.5-meter safe distance from fossils; no stepping on or climbing the rock layers · You may bring a small brush to clean off loose dirt for a simple archaeological experience; it is illegal to remove any fossils · The ground clay is soft; stay on existing trails and avoid stepping on soil slopes 3. Alien Canyon | Sci-Fi Filming Location The most famous spot in the entire park, with fluorescent orange, mint green, and creamy white multi-layered rocks interwoven, creating a surreal color clash like an alien surface. ⚠️ Safety Reminder: The rock walls are loose and prone to collapse; strictly follow marked routes and do not venture deep into the canyon. 🌌 Night Tour Exclusive: Desert Milky Way Starry Night Far from city light pollution, the entire wilderness reveals the full Milky Way to the naked eye at night. The rock pillars framed against the starry sky create a powerful visual impact. Photography Gear: Tripod, large aperture camera, headlamp; use long exposure of 10–15 seconds, ISO 1600–3200 to easily capture stunning star trails. Tips: The desert has extreme temperature differences between day and night; bring a windproof thick jacket for nighttime. 🎒 Essential Packing List · Clothing: High-top anti-slip hiking boots, windproof face mask, wide-brim sun hat · Water: Large capacity water bags with at least 3 liters per person; the desert has no shade and intense sun exposure, with a high risk of dehydration · Equipment: Satellite GPS/offline maps, camera + tripod, sunscreen with SPF 50+ · Others: Basic first aid kit, some dry snacks, trash bags (all trash must be carried out) ⚠️ Strict Safety Rules & Pitfall Warnings 1.

Drone Restrictions: Drones are prohibited throughout the protected area; violations will be penalized 3. Wildlife Encounters: If you encounter rattlesnakes or venomous lizards, stay still and slowly back away without disturbing them 4.

💎Overseas secret wild ambassador | California Fort Bragg glass beach film-style travel guide Destination: Glass Beach at MacKerricher State Park, Fort Bragg, California. Once a city dump site, decades of ocean waves have polished it into a coast of sparkling sea glass. A must-stop natural hidden gem on the Highway 1 road trip. 🚗 Two travel options Drive north from San Francisco along CA-1 Highway. The drive takes about 3.5 hours with Pacific cliffside ocean views all along the way, where you can stop anytime to enjoy the scenery. There is a small free parking lot at the beach’s end. Parking is limited during peak season, so try to arrive before 9 AM. Paid parking in the state park costs US$10 per day. If you don’t have a car, you can take the Greyhound bus to Fort Bragg town, then a 10-minute taxi ride to the beach. The total trip takes 6 to 8 hours. Local carpool or day tours are also options. 📸 Four main highlights ✨ Rainbow sea glass beach: White and green sea glass are most common. Red and blue are rare and only fully visible at low tide when the entire tidal flat is exposed. The coast is divided into three beach areas. Beach 3 has the largest amount of sea glass and the best viewing. A gentle coastal boardwalk lets you see small marine creatures like crabs and sea anemones in tide pools. Stop by the Skunk vintage forest train and the colorful seaside fairy-tale town of Mendocino. The golden hour from 3 PM to 5 PM offers soft backlighting. Wet sea glass becomes translucent and reflective, perfect for atmospheric film-style photos. 🦋 Fun experiences Hunt for smooth sea glass on the tidal flats, take a leisurely walk along the coastline, ride the vintage train through redwood forests, and capture breathtaking ocean views from the cliffs. 🍤 Local food options In Fort Bragg town, enjoy fresh seafood, classic clam chowder, American burgers with craft beer, authentic Mexican tacos, or bring your own ingredients for a picnic by the sea. 🏡 Two types of accommodations ▫️ Fort Bragg town: Well-developed with plenty of sea view vacation rentals and convenient daily shopping. ▫️ Mendocino town: Rich in artistic atmosphere with stylish seaside cabins, ideal for a slow-paced, immersive vacation. 💡 Essential travel tips The beach is covered with glass shards, so wear non-slip, durable hiking shoes to protect your feet from cuts. Northern California’s coast is windy year-round with cooler temperatures, so bring a windbreaker and high-SPF sunscreen. Check the tide schedule before you go. Low tide is the only time to see large areas of sea glass. California state parks strictly prohibit collecting or removing sea glass. Violators face heavy fines. Photography is allowed. There are no shops or restaurants on the beach. Bring your own drinking water and snacks.

#itinerarycheck This is the signature Bryce hike and the combination route (Queen’s Garden down, Navajo Loop up via Wall Street) is the right way to do it—everyone says so and they are correct. I started at Sunrise Point at 7 am in late September, descended Queen’s Garden first (cooler, softer light on the hoodoos, fewer people coming up at you), reached the Queen’s Garden formation in 40 minutes, then continued to the Navajo Loop junction and climbed out through Wall Street. Total 5.3 km, 330 m elevation regain, 2 hours 15 with constant stopping. By 9:30 the Wall Street slot was in shadow and gorgeous; by 11 the whole amphitheater was flat midday light and the parking lot at Sunrise Point was full with a ranger directing cars. Bryce entrance is $35/vehicle, 7 days, card accepted at the booth. The shuttle runs from the visitor center to Sunrise/Sunset Points in season, but if you have a car just park at Sunrise Point and start there—the shuttle saves nothing in the early morning because it does not run until 8. Water: one bottle minimum even in autumn; the climb out of Navajo is switchbacked sand and sucks the moisture out of you. Boots help—the Queen’s Garden tread is sandy and the Wall Street stairs are worn limestone with drop-offs, fine in dry weather, slick after rain or frost. In winter Wall Street closes for ice and you must return via Two Bridges, adding 1 km. Lodging inside the park (Bryce Canyon Lodge) books 6–12 months ahead; outside, Ruby’s Inn takes cards and has an ATM that ran out of cash on a Friday night when I was there, so do not rely on it. Food at Ruby’s is overpriced diner fare—stock snacks in Panguitch (30 minutes south) where prices are normal. One mistake: I originally planned Navajo down + Queen’s Garden up, which means climbing the Wall Street stairs at the start when legs are fresh but descending the sandy switchbacks at the end when they are not—either works, but the conventional order gives you the better photographic direction and the harder climb in cooler air. For itinerary flow, Bryce pairs naturally with a sunset at Inspiration Point (5 minutes away, wheelchair-accessible overlook) the evening before, and a dawn at Sunrise Point the same day you hike. Trying to add Mossy Cave or Fairyland Loop on the same day as Navajo/Queen’s is overkill—Bryce rewards slow looking, not mileage. Has anyone done the full Figure 8 (Navajo + Queen’s + Peek-a-Boo) in one morning without regretting it by noon?

Summer in Seattle is all about the big forest and cycling—the perfect match! Today, I’m recommending a super healing cycling route where you won’t get sunburned at all, plus a hidden river spot. Over 90% of the route is shaded by forest, perfect for wearing just a sports tank top or even a swimsuit underneath and heading out directly. 🧭【Basic Route Info】 🚲 Cycling Trail: Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT for short) 📍 Start: Tolt-MacDonald Park (in the town of Carnation) 📍 End: Snoqualmie Falls (return as you wish based on your stamina) 📍【Beginner-Friendly Guide & Tips】 🚗 Free Parking: Navigate directly to the start at Tolt-MacDonald Park. There’s plenty of free parking here! Don’t navigate directly to the end at Snoqualmie Falls—it’s crowded and you might get a ticket. 📸 Start Check-in Landmark: At the park entrance, there’s a very eye-catching red vintage suspension bridge (the SVT is converted from old railway lines). You can walk up and take photos of the river before setting off. 🚲 Route Tip: Google Maps usually directs you to the nearby main road. Be sure to manually drag the route onto the Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT)! It’s a converted abandoned railway, with a very wide and smooth path, and all the scenery is inside the forest. ⚡ Energy-Saving Suggestion: Although there are no big hills, the trail is compacted gravel, so riding an e-bike is recommended to save energy for taking beautiful photos. 🍓【$3 per Pound Raspberry Freedom】 Next to the start park is Remlinger Farms, and July is perfect for raspberry picking! Self-service U-Pick is only $3 per pound (a small box in the supermarket usually costs $10). The freshly picked berries dripping with dew are super sweet! ⚠️ The farm closes at 5 PM, so plan your return ride accordingly. 👙【Regretted Not Bringing a Swimsuit Hidden River Spot】 Just 2 minutes cycling from the start, there’s a super hidden water play spot (location marked on map X). The river water is crystal clear and ice-cold. Under the bridge, there’s even a river swing, with many hot guys and girls enjoying drifting and paddleboarding. I wasn’t prepared this time, so I could only watch from the shore and secretly vowed to come next time wearing a swimsuit. 💡【Travel Tips】 Navigation: Tolt-MacDonald Park Gear: Sunglasses, mosquito repellent, and your swimsuit/change of clothes! Security: It’s best to bring a bike lock. Although at the time, a dozen bikes by the river were unlocked and everyone was very chill, it’s safer to lock up just in case.

Mooney Falls is the definition of adventure in Arizona! 💦💙 You’ll find this epic beauty tucked away in the magical Havasupai region of the Grand Canyon. To get there, you’ll need to hike down steep, almost vertical cliffs using chains and ladders—talk about living your best daredevil life! The journey is totally wild, but that first glimpse of Mooney Falls crashing 200 feet down into turquoise pools is absolutely worth it. 🤯 Surrounded by red rock walls and lush greenery, this is truly an Insta-perfect spot. Bring your waterproof gear—you’ll want to snap some insane pics and maybe even take a dip to cool off. Just remember: you need a permit (from the official Havasupai Tribe website) and the trail is only open from February to November. No casual drop-ins here, fam! Location: Mooney Falls, Havasupai Falls, Supai, AZ 86435 Best Time: Early morning for fewer crowds and dreamy lighting Hours: Open February–November (permit required) Honestly, this is one of those bucket-list adventures you’ll never forget. Grab your squad, pack those hiking shoes, and get ready for a waterfall experience that’s 100% Arizona legend status! 💙✨ Ready to plan? Find more inspo and book Grand Canyon stays on trip.com!

Canada 🇨🇦 is great, but I won’t go back 🌲 because it’s really tough on travelers Just got back from the Canada loop 😭! Honestly, here’s the real deal! The scenery is absolutely stunning! Snow-capped mountains, lakes, and forests are like wallpapers everywhere ✨, but the trip is really exhausting and grueling! Spending money while suffering, rushing from place to place, the experience is extremely polarized. Once is enough! 🚗 Transportation tips 🗺️ Here’s a real no-fail guide to avoid pitfalls ✅ Canada’s biggest challenge: the land is ridiculously huge 💥! Cities and attractions are very far apart. Driving between Toronto, Vancouver, and Banff takes 3–4 hours each way! You basically have to drive yourself the whole time. There’s no reliable public transportation, so independent travel is almost impossible! 🚙 Many pitfalls with self-driving: Car rental prices double in peak season, and popular models are hard to book even two weeks in advance! Mountain roads are common, and some areas have no signal 📶. You must download offline maps in advance. If you’re unfamiliar with the roads, driving is really risky. 🚄 Intercity transport is very poor value. Tickets are expensive, schedules are limited, and wait times are long. ⚠️ Hidden costs to watch out for: All prices exclude tax! At checkout, 12%–13% tax is automatically added. Meals and taxis also require a mandatory 15%–20% tip 💸, so it’s easy to overspend! Don’t book hotels in the core of scenic areas! Banff hotels are outrageously priced in peak season. Staying in nearby towns can save you half the cost! 🌿 Real travel experience ✨ Honestly! Canada’s natural beauty is truly unmatched 💯! Lake Louise and Moraine Lake have crystal-clear blue water 💎, the Rocky Mountains are covered in endless snow ❄️, Niagara Falls is grand and breathtaking, and the forest air cures all anxiety! Few people, pristine scenery, and completely uncommercialized natural beauty. But it’s also really tough on travelers 😮‍💨! You spend most of your day in the car, sitting so long your back and waist hurt. It’s pure “sit and watch the scenery”! The weather in August and September is crazy. It’s scorching hot during the day ☀️, then windy and cold at night, with huge temperature swings. Dressing is a real challenge. There are tons of mosquitoes in forests and near lakes 🦟. They’re big and bite hard, making outdoor hiking miserable. Scenic area facilities are scarce. There are few supply points and basic rest areas. You often run out of water and snacks on the road, which seriously hurts the experience! 🍽️ Authentic Canadian food 🤤 The scenery is perfect, but the food is just okay 😋 🍁 Maple syrup pancakes | A national specialty! Sweet, soft, and rich in dairy flavor. A breakfast staple 🥩 Canadian steak | Tender, thick, juicy, and grilled over charcoal for great satisfaction 🐟 Deep-sea salmon | Firm, fresh, low-fat, and healthy. A local signature ingredient 🍟 Poutine cheese fries | Fries covered in cheese, salty and rich, a popular street snack 💡 Honest warnings 💣 Local dining is limited and mild in flavor. If you’re not used to Western food, you’ll get tired of it quickly! Scenic area restaurants are overpriced and portions vary. It’s best to bring extra snacks to avoid hunger on the road! 💡 Practical travel tips 📝 1. Be sure to apply for your visa in advance 📄! The process is complicated with many documents, and the rejection rate is not low. Allow plenty of time. 2. Prepare enough supplies for the whole self-driving trip! Bring water, snacks, and mosquito repellent. Supplies are scarce in mountain areas. 3. Dress in layers like an onion 🧥. A sun- and windproof jacket is essential to handle changing weather. 4. Stay away from deep forest areas. Follow scenic area rules and hike safely without taking risks. 5. Budget for taxes and tips on all expenses to avoid surprises at checkout. 6. Don’t rush your itinerary! Visit fewer attractions each day to ease fatigue from long drives. Canada’s beauty is pure, breathtaking mountain wilderness romance 🏔️! Snowy mountains, lakes, primeval forests, and healing wilderness. The scenery is flawless. But the long drives, high costs, unpredictable weather, and basic facilities are really tough for most people! It’s best suited for those who love the outdoors, can endure hardship, and have a generous budget. For most people, it’s not recommended to rush here blindly. Seeing the stunning scenery once is enough to remember for a lifetime!

#arrivalguide Visiting Grand Canyon National Park for the first time is an unforgettable experience, and a little planning makes the trip much smoother. I entered through the South Rim, which is the most popular area and offers easy access to scenic viewpoints, visitor services, and walking trails. Arrive early in the morning to avoid heavy traffic, find parking more easily, and enjoy cooler temperatures. Wear comfortable walking shoes, bring plenty of drinking water, sunscreen, and a hat, as the weather can become hot and dry, especially in summer. Keep your camera ready because the canyon views change beautifully throughout the day. Follow all safety signs and stay behind railings where provided, as the canyon edges can be dangerous. Spend time at several viewpoints instead of rushing through just one stop. Watching the sunrise or sunset over the canyon is an experience you won't forget and makes the visit even more rewarding. #arrivalguide #grandcanyonnationalpark #arizona #usa #nationalparks

#mytripvlog When people take a road trip, traveling between Los Angeles and Las Vegas along Interstate 15, the colorful installation art will catch travelers' eyes when passing through desert landscapes.

Who would have thought! Hidden in Canada is a small town favored by time 🌿, avoiding the crowded crowds of Toronto and Vancouver. Here, there is no commercial hustle and bustle, only European vintage style everywhere. This is Niagara-on-the-Lake, and the soul of the town—Queen Street—is definitely the pinnacle of short trips in Canada! Compared to the repetitive popular check-in spots in Canada, Queen Street focuses on an authentic vintage atmosphere and is also a local secret vacation treasure. Whether it's a couple's honeymoon, a trip with girlfriends, or a solo healing journey, this street can fulfill all your fantasies of a European small town. Once you visit, you'll be completely captivated ❤️ 📍 Overview Niagara-on-the-Lake is located on the banks of the Niagara River, adjacent to Niagara Falls, 1.5 hours by car from Toronto, and 40 minutes from Buffalo, New York. The entire town was once a century-old colonial stronghold. Queen Street, as the town's main artery, is only 1.2 kilometers long. The street isn't very long, but every inch of scenery is worth slowing down to savor. The whole street is dominated by Victorian vintage architecture, with neatly arranged colorful detached houses and vintage villas on both sides. The street is surrounded by lush greenery and flowers, with cherry blossoms in spring, roses in summer, and maple leaves in autumn, each season offering its own charm. Unlike the fast-food style commercialization of popular Canadian commercial streets, the shop density here is moderate, with no noisy tourist groups, quiet and relaxed, perfectly suited for a slow-paced trip. 🌟 Must-visit core check-in spots 1. Vintage Colorful Building Cluster [Top Photo Spot] The buildings along Queen Street span the 18th to 19th centuries, with detached houses in cream white, mint green, caramel brown, and creamy yellow scattered about. Carved window sills, vintage iron railings, and pointed attics make every snapshot look like a European movie scene 🎬 Recommended best photo spot: Around the mid-street city hall area, where there are fewer people and no cluttered modern buildings in the background. On sunny days, the light and shadow atmosphere is perfect! Outfit suggestions include light-colored long dresses, French-style trench coats, and vintage suits, suitable for all styles with a 100% chance of great photos. 2. Niche Unique Treasure Shops The entire street gathers dozens of specialty shops including cultural and creative stores, antiques, aromatherapy, handmade crafts, wineries, and clothing stores, rejecting the uniformity of Yiwu-style small commodities: · Antique Collection Store: Displays century-old vintage cameras, silverware, old oil paintings, and vintage records. Each old item carries a story of time. Antique lovers must not miss this; the niche collections offer great value for money; · Floral Handmade Shop: The store is wrapped in fresh flowers, focusing on dried flower decorations and preserved flower accessories. Prices are affordable, perfect for buying as travel souvenirs; · Local Winery Store: Niagara is a well-known Canadian ice wine region.

SAVE THIS! ⭐️General: Do not get an electric car because we wasted quite a bit of time finding charging points and waiting for the Tesla to fully charge. ⭐️Antelope Canyons: It is mandatory to book a tour for the Canyons. We chose Upper instead of Lower because it’s more picturesque and mostly flat while in Lower, you had to descend and ascend equivalent to 3-4 flights of stairs with ladders during the 600 meters walk. We booked a 1.5 hour tour but it only lasted 1 hour because we took a ride to and from the meet up point. Book a photography tour instead if you’d like to spend more time taking pictures. 1 hour was too short! ⭐️Horseshoe Bend: The hike to the viewpoint is about 2.4km round trip. Bring water and wear comfortable shoes. For the best photos, wide-angle lens are important to capture the entire bend in the river. ⭐️Grand Canyon: We chose South Rim instead of West Rim as the West is closer to Las Vegas so we could do a West Rim Helicopter ride next time we’re in Vegas. Besides, it is less developed and offers fewer amenities and viewpoints compared to the South Rim. It is $35 per private vehicle for a pass valid for 7 days. With 20 viewpoints accessible by vehicle, Mather Point, Yavapai Point, and Desert View are the best viewpoints. Use the free shuttle services available to explore different viewpoints without the hassle of driving and parking. #grouptravel

📍 Fontainebleau Las Vegas 2777 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109 Fontainebleau is one of the Strip’s newest mega-resorts—a 67-story, 3,600-plus room tower that feels more like a glossy fashion set than a casino lobby. Think marble rings of floor around giant rose sculptures, champagne-gold chandeliers, and long blue hallways that look designed for slow-motion entrance videos. It’s all very “Miami meets north Strip,” with the bow-tie logo repeating in the ceilings, carpets, and even the driveway lights. Beyond the looks, this place is built to be a full-service base: a 170,000-square-foot casino, dozens of restaurants and bars (many first-to-market concepts), and rooms that lean soft blue and grey with big windows facing either the Strip or the mountains. If you’re here for conventions, it’s right by the Las Vegas Convention Center; if you’re here for nightlife, the BleauLive Theater and on-site clubs keep the energy inside the building so you don’t have to chase Ubers up and down the Strip. #lasvegas #fontainebleau #travel

#itinerarycheck First time in Vegas? Don’t try to see everything ,pick the hotels that are actually worth stopping for. This route covers the most iconic ones: 🚕 Start: Luxor Hotel & Casino 🇪🇬 Getting there: Uber/taxi is easiest. You can also use the free Mandalay Bay–Luxor–Excalibur tram. 👀 Look for: the giant pyramid, Sphinx and the incredible pyramid interior. ❤️New York-New York 🗽 👀 Look for: Statue of Liberty replica, NYC skyline and the Big Apple Coaster. ⭐ Worth a photo stop. ❤️Paris Las Vegas 🇫🇷 👀 Look for: the Eiffel Tower replica and Paris-style streets. ❤️Bellagio ⭐ 👀 Look for: the famous fountains outside and the free Conservatory & Botanical Gardens inside. ⭐ One of the best stops on the Strip. ❤️Caesars Palace 🏛️ ⭐ 👀 Look for: Roman statues, fountains and the impressive Forum Shops. ❤️The Venetian 🇮🇹 ⭐ 👀 Look for: indoor canals, gondolas, painted ceilings and the Grand Canal Shoppes. ⭐ A perfect place to finish. 🚝 Getting around: The Strip is walkable, but distances are deceptive. If your feet give up: · Use the paid Las Vegas Monorail for longer journeys · Use free hotel trams where available: ✔️ Mandalay Bay ↔ Luxor ↔ Excalibur ✔️ Bellagio ↔ Vdara ↔ ARIA 💡 Allow around 4–6 hours with photo stops, or make it a full day if you add food, shopping or attractions. Which hotel would you want to see first? 🎰

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

Awana Spa at Resorts World is a good choice for travelers who want a wellness experience with several distinct spaces. The Fountain of Youth creates a dramatic centerpiece, while the Laconium Room offers a warm, quieter environment for slowing down. The locker area also makes it easier to change, store belongings, and prepare without feeling rushed. When booking, check which amenities are included and whether any rooms require a specific treatment or spa pass. Arriving early is especially useful because Resorts World is large and the route from parking or rideshare drop-off can take longer than expected. The combination of water features, warm rooms, and softly lit interiors makes this an easy place to recharge before returning to restaurants, shows, and other Las Vegas activities. #staycation#thingstodo#resorts

Last spring in Las Vegas, I encountered a dreamlike spring bloom. On the Las Vegas Strip, luxury hotels stand side by side, each with a strong unique style. Touring hotels has become a signature activity in the gambling city. The most popular is the Bellagio, which features a free indoor conservatory garden in its lobby. Surrounded by colorful flowers and sculptures, it feels like stepping into a real-life fairy tale world~

There is nothing quite like summer in Las Vegas! From the shimmering heat on the Strip to the extravagant stay in the resorts, this trip was one for the books. ✨ Living like royal at The Venetian We stayed in a gorgeous suite at The Venetian, and it completely lived up to the hype. The attention to detail inside the hotel is unreal—the indoor canals, the stunning waterfall displays, and the grand floral gown installations made it feel like we were walking through a dream. 🏊♂️ Weekend DJ pool party When you're in Vegas during the summer, pool days are non-negotiable. We spent hours soaking up the sun and cooling off in the waters surrounded by palm trees. On the weekend, there is always DJ playing for the party. When we weren't poolside, we were taking in some incredible bird's-eye views of the iconic Strip, looking out over Treasure Island and the glittering gold Trump tower. 🎭 Strip Nights One of the absolute highlights was watching the gondolas glide along the vibrant blue outdoor canals under the bright desert sky. As the sun set, the city really came alive. From the neon lights of Gilley's to the stunning architecture of the Palazzo, Vegas at night is just pure magic.

As a long-time pass holder of heritage museums & gardens 🤝 I’ve seen it improve year after year. From just having portable restrooms a few years ago to now having very clean, fancy large restrooms, I have to say the membership fee is worth it. I’ve been to many gardens nearby, but this one never gets old! Every time I stroll around, I feel great and get perfect photos. Different flowers and plants bloom at different times, so there’s always something to capture👌🏻 The hydrangea festival is about to bloom soon, many are already open. I love taking photos and will keep coming back to shoot

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

Travel Tips: Gas stations are scarce along the way; fill up the tank before departure; no public transportation available, self-driving only 4.

Badlands Overlook | 360° Danxia Panorama The highest point in the area, surrounded by colorful rock pillars in a ring. In the early morning, mist covers the iconic mushroom rocks, creating a full atmospheric vibe. Photography Tips: Use a wide-angle lens for panoramic canyon shots and a telephoto lens to compress rock layers; wear bright red, orange, or yellow clothing to contrast with the earth-yellow and orange-red rock walls for striking photos. 2. Fossil Valley Trail | Jurassic Archaeological Site The trail surface is scattered with numerous dinosaur bone fossils visible up close, but strict rules apply: · Maintain a 1.5-meter safe distance from fossils; no stepping on or climbing the rock layers · You may bring a small brush to clean off loose dirt for a simple archaeological experience; it is illegal to remove any fossils · The ground clay is soft; stay on existing trails and avoid stepping on soil slopes 3. Alien Canyon | Sci-Fi Filming Location The most famous spot in the entire park, with fluorescent orange, mint green, and creamy white multi-layered rocks interwoven, creating a surreal color clash like an alien surface. ⚠️ Safety Reminder: The rock walls are loose and prone to collapse; strictly follow marked routes and do not venture deep into the canyon. 🌌 Night Tour Exclusive: Desert Milky Way Starry Night Far from city light pollution, the entire wilderness reveals the full Milky Way to the naked eye at night. The rock pillars framed against the starry sky create a powerful visual impact. Photography Gear: Tripod, large aperture camera, headlamp; use long exposure of 10–15 seconds, ISO 1600–3200 to easily capture stunning star trails. Tips: The desert has extreme temperature differences between day and night; bring a windproof thick jacket for nighttime. 🎒 Essential Packing List · Clothing: High-top anti-slip hiking boots, windproof face mask, wide-brim sun hat · Water: Large capacity water bags with at least 3 liters per person; the desert has no shade and intense sun exposure, with a high risk of dehydration · Equipment: Satellite GPS/offline maps, camera + tripod, sunscreen with SPF 50+ · Others: Basic first aid kit, some dry snacks, trash bags (all trash must be carried out) ⚠️ Strict Safety Rules & Pitfall Warnings 1.

💎Overseas secret wild ambassador | California Fort Bragg glass beach film-style travel guide Destination: Glass Beach at MacKerricher State Park, Fort Bragg, California. Once a city dump site, decades of ocean waves have polished it into a coast of sparkling sea glass. A must-stop natural hidden gem on the Highway 1 road trip. 🚗 Two travel options Drive north from San Francisco along CA-1 Highway. The drive takes about 3.5 hours with Pacific cliffside ocean views all along the way, where you can stop anytime to enjoy the scenery. There is a small free parking lot at the beach’s end. Parking is limited during peak season, so try to arrive before 9 AM. Paid parking in the state park costs US$10 per day. If you don’t have a car, you can take the Greyhound bus to Fort Bragg town, then a 10-minute taxi ride to the beach. The total trip takes 6 to 8 hours. Local carpool or day tours are also options. 📸 Four main highlights ✨ Rainbow sea glass beach: White and green sea glass are most common. Red and blue are rare and only fully visible at low tide when the entire tidal flat is exposed. The coast is divided into three beach areas. Beach 3 has the largest amount of sea glass and the best viewing. A gentle coastal boardwalk lets you see small marine creatures like crabs and sea anemones in tide pools. Stop by the Skunk vintage forest train and the colorful seaside fairy-tale town of Mendocino. The golden hour from 3 PM to 5 PM offers soft backlighting. Wet sea glass becomes translucent and reflective, perfect for atmospheric film-style photos. 🦋 Fun experiences Hunt for smooth sea glass on the tidal flats, take a leisurely walk along the coastline, ride the vintage train through redwood forests, and capture breathtaking ocean views from the cliffs. 🍤 Local food options In Fort Bragg town, enjoy fresh seafood, classic clam chowder, American burgers with craft beer, authentic Mexican tacos, or bring your own ingredients for a picnic by the sea. 🏡 Two types of accommodations ▫️ Fort Bragg town: Well-developed with plenty of sea view vacation rentals and convenient daily shopping. ▫️ Mendocino town: Rich in artistic atmosphere with stylish seaside cabins, ideal for a slow-paced, immersive vacation. 💡 Essential travel tips The beach is covered with glass shards, so wear non-slip, durable hiking shoes to protect your feet from cuts. Northern California’s coast is windy year-round with cooler temperatures, so bring a windbreaker and high-SPF sunscreen. Check the tide schedule before you go. Low tide is the only time to see large areas of sea glass. California state parks strictly prohibit collecting or removing sea glass. Violators face heavy fines. Photography is allowed. There are no shops or restaurants on the beach. Bring your own drinking water and snacks.

#itinerarycheck This is the signature Bryce hike and the combination route (Queen’s Garden down, Navajo Loop up via Wall Street) is the right way to do it—everyone says so and they are correct. I started at Sunrise Point at 7 am in late September, descended Queen’s Garden first (cooler, softer light on the hoodoos, fewer people coming up at you), reached the Queen’s Garden formation in 40 minutes, then continued to the Navajo Loop junction and climbed out through Wall Street. Total 5.3 km, 330 m elevation regain, 2 hours 15 with constant stopping. By 9:30 the Wall Street slot was in shadow and gorgeous; by 11 the whole amphitheater was flat midday light and the parking lot at Sunrise Point was full with a ranger directing cars. Bryce entrance is $35/vehicle, 7 days, card accepted at the booth. The shuttle runs from the visitor center to Sunrise/Sunset Points in season, but if you have a car just park at Sunrise Point and start there—the shuttle saves nothing in the early morning because it does not run until 8. Water: one bottle minimum even in autumn; the climb out of Navajo is switchbacked sand and sucks the moisture out of you. Boots help—the Queen’s Garden tread is sandy and the Wall Street stairs are worn limestone with drop-offs, fine in dry weather, slick after rain or frost. In winter Wall Street closes for ice and you must return via Two Bridges, adding 1 km. Lodging inside the park (Bryce Canyon Lodge) books 6–12 months ahead; outside, Ruby’s Inn takes cards and has an ATM that ran out of cash on a Friday night when I was there, so do not rely on it. Food at Ruby’s is overpriced diner fare—stock snacks in Panguitch (30 minutes south) where prices are normal. One mistake: I originally planned Navajo down + Queen’s Garden up, which means climbing the Wall Street stairs at the start when legs are fresh but descending the sandy switchbacks at the end when they are not—either works, but the conventional order gives you the better photographic direction and the harder climb in cooler air. For itinerary flow, Bryce pairs naturally with a sunset at Inspiration Point (5 minutes away, wheelchair-accessible overlook) the evening before, and a dawn at Sunrise Point the same day you hike. Trying to add Mossy Cave or Fairyland Loop on the same day as Navajo/Queen’s is overkill—Bryce rewards slow looking, not mileage. Has anyone done the full Figure 8 (Navajo + Queen’s + Peek-a-Boo) in one morning without regretting it by noon?

Summer in Seattle is all about the big forest and cycling—the perfect match! Today, I’m recommending a super healing cycling route where you won’t get sunburned at all, plus a hidden river spot. Over 90% of the route is shaded by forest, perfect for wearing just a sports tank top or even a swimsuit underneath and heading out directly. 🧭【Basic Route Info】 🚲 Cycling Trail: Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT for short) 📍 Start: Tolt-MacDonald Park (in the town of Carnation) 📍 End: Snoqualmie Falls (return as you wish based on your stamina) 📍【Beginner-Friendly Guide & Tips】 🚗 Free Parking: Navigate directly to the start at Tolt-MacDonald Park. There’s plenty of free parking here! Don’t navigate directly to the end at Snoqualmie Falls—it’s crowded and you might get a ticket. 📸 Start Check-in Landmark: At the park entrance, there’s a very eye-catching red vintage suspension bridge (the SVT is converted from old railway lines). You can walk up and take photos of the river before setting off. 🚲 Route Tip: Google Maps usually directs you to the nearby main road. Be sure to manually drag the route onto the Snoqualmie Valley Trail (SVT)! It’s a converted abandoned railway, with a very wide and smooth path, and all the scenery is inside the forest. ⚡ Energy-Saving Suggestion: Although there are no big hills, the trail is compacted gravel, so riding an e-bike is recommended to save energy for taking beautiful photos. 🍓【$3 per Pound Raspberry Freedom】 Next to the start park is Remlinger Farms, and July is perfect for raspberry picking! Self-service U-Pick is only $3 per pound (a small box in the supermarket usually costs $10). The freshly picked berries dripping with dew are super sweet! ⚠️ The farm closes at 5 PM, so plan your return ride accordingly. 👙【Regretted Not Bringing a Swimsuit Hidden River Spot】 Just 2 minutes cycling from the start, there’s a super hidden water play spot (location marked on map X). The river water is crystal clear and ice-cold. Under the bridge, there’s even a river swing, with many hot guys and girls enjoying drifting and paddleboarding. I wasn’t prepared this time, so I could only watch from the shore and secretly vowed to come next time wearing a swimsuit. 💡【Travel Tips】 Navigation: Tolt-MacDonald Park Gear: Sunglasses, mosquito repellent, and your swimsuit/change of clothes! Security: It’s best to bring a bike lock. Although at the time, a dozen bikes by the river were unlocked and everyone was very chill, it’s safer to lock up just in case.

Mooney Falls is the definition of adventure in Arizona! 💦💙 You’ll find this epic beauty tucked away in the magical Havasupai region of the Grand Canyon. To get there, you’ll need to hike down steep, almost vertical cliffs using chains and ladders—talk about living your best daredevil life! The journey is totally wild, but that first glimpse of Mooney Falls crashing 200 feet down into turquoise pools is absolutely worth it. 🤯 Surrounded by red rock walls and lush greenery, this is truly an Insta-perfect spot. Bring your waterproof gear—you’ll want to snap some insane pics and maybe even take a dip to cool off. Just remember: you need a permit (from the official Havasupai Tribe website) and the trail is only open from February to November. No casual drop-ins here, fam! Location: Mooney Falls, Havasupai Falls, Supai, AZ 86435 Best Time: Early morning for fewer crowds and dreamy lighting Hours: Open February–November (permit required) Honestly, this is one of those bucket-list adventures you’ll never forget. Grab your squad, pack those hiking shoes, and get ready for a waterfall experience that’s 100% Arizona legend status! 💙✨ Ready to plan? Find more inspo and book Grand Canyon stays on trip.com!

Canada 🇨🇦 is great, but I won’t go back 🌲 because it’s really tough on travelers Just got back from the Canada loop 😭! Honestly, here’s the real deal! The scenery is absolutely stunning! Snow-capped mountains, lakes, and forests are like wallpapers everywhere ✨, but the trip is really exhausting and grueling! Spending money while suffering, rushing from place to place, the experience is extremely polarized. Once is enough! 🚗 Transportation tips 🗺️ Here’s a real no-fail guide to avoid pitfalls ✅ Canada’s biggest challenge: the land is ridiculously huge 💥! Cities and attractions are very far apart. Driving between Toronto, Vancouver, and Banff takes 3–4 hours each way! You basically have to drive yourself the whole time. There’s no reliable public transportation, so independent travel is almost impossible! 🚙 Many pitfalls with self-driving: Car rental prices double in peak season, and popular models are hard to book even two weeks in advance! Mountain roads are common, and some areas have no signal 📶. You must download offline maps in advance. If you’re unfamiliar with the roads, driving is really risky. 🚄 Intercity transport is very poor value. Tickets are expensive, schedules are limited, and wait times are long. ⚠️ Hidden costs to watch out for: All prices exclude tax! At checkout, 12%–13% tax is automatically added. Meals and taxis also require a mandatory 15%–20% tip 💸, so it’s easy to overspend! Don’t book hotels in the core of scenic areas! Banff hotels are outrageously priced in peak season. Staying in nearby towns can save you half the cost! 🌿 Real travel experience ✨ Honestly! Canada’s natural beauty is truly unmatched 💯! Lake Louise and Moraine Lake have crystal-clear blue water 💎, the Rocky Mountains are covered in endless snow ❄️, Niagara Falls is grand and breathtaking, and the forest air cures all anxiety! Few people, pristine scenery, and completely uncommercialized natural beauty. But it’s also really tough on travelers 😮‍💨! You spend most of your day in the car, sitting so long your back and waist hurt. It’s pure “sit and watch the scenery”! The weather in August and September is crazy. It’s scorching hot during the day ☀️, then windy and cold at night, with huge temperature swings. Dressing is a real challenge. There are tons of mosquitoes in forests and near lakes 🦟. They’re big and bite hard, making outdoor hiking miserable. Scenic area facilities are scarce. There are few supply points and basic rest areas. You often run out of water and snacks on the road, which seriously hurts the experience! 🍽️ Authentic Canadian food 🤤 The scenery is perfect, but the food is just okay 😋 🍁 Maple syrup pancakes | A national specialty! Sweet, soft, and rich in dairy flavor. A breakfast staple 🥩 Canadian steak | Tender, thick, juicy, and grilled over charcoal for great satisfaction 🐟 Deep-sea salmon | Firm, fresh, low-fat, and healthy. A local signature ingredient 🍟 Poutine cheese fries | Fries covered in cheese, salty and rich, a popular street snack 💡 Honest warnings 💣 Local dining is limited and mild in flavor. If you’re not used to Western food, you’ll get tired of it quickly! Scenic area restaurants are overpriced and portions vary. It’s best to bring extra snacks to avoid hunger on the road! 💡 Practical travel tips 📝 1. Be sure to apply for your visa in advance 📄! The process is complicated with many documents, and the rejection rate is not low. Allow plenty of time. 2. Prepare enough supplies for the whole self-driving trip! Bring water, snacks, and mosquito repellent. Supplies are scarce in mountain areas. 3. Dress in layers like an onion 🧥. A sun- and windproof jacket is essential to handle changing weather. 4. Stay away from deep forest areas. Follow scenic area rules and hike safely without taking risks. 5. Budget for taxes and tips on all expenses to avoid surprises at checkout. 6. Don’t rush your itinerary! Visit fewer attractions each day to ease fatigue from long drives. Canada’s beauty is pure, breathtaking mountain wilderness romance 🏔️! Snowy mountains, lakes, primeval forests, and healing wilderness. The scenery is flawless. But the long drives, high costs, unpredictable weather, and basic facilities are really tough for most people! It’s best suited for those who love the outdoors, can endure hardship, and have a generous budget. For most people, it’s not recommended to rush here blindly. Seeing the stunning scenery once is enough to remember for a lifetime!

#arrivalguide Visiting Grand Canyon National Park for the first time is an unforgettable experience, and a little planning makes the trip much smoother. I entered through the South Rim, which is the most popular area and offers easy access to scenic viewpoints, visitor services, and walking trails. Arrive early in the morning to avoid heavy traffic, find parking more easily, and enjoy cooler temperatures. Wear comfortable walking shoes, bring plenty of drinking water, sunscreen, and a hat, as the weather can become hot and dry, especially in summer. Keep your camera ready because the canyon views change beautifully throughout the day. Follow all safety signs and stay behind railings where provided, as the canyon edges can be dangerous. Spend time at several viewpoints instead of rushing through just one stop. Watching the sunrise or sunset over the canyon is an experience you won't forget and makes the visit even more rewarding. #arrivalguide #grandcanyonnationalpark #arizona #usa #nationalparks

Who would have thought! Hidden in Canada is a small town favored by time 🌿, avoiding the crowded crowds of Toronto and Vancouver.

SAVE THIS! ⭐️General: Do not get an electric car because we wasted quite a bit of time finding charging points and waiting for the Tesla to fully charge. ⭐️Antelope Canyons: It is mandatory to book a tour for the Canyons. We chose Upper instead of Lower because it’s more picturesque and mostly flat while in Lower, you had to descend and ascend equivalent to 3-4 flights of stairs with ladders during the 600 meters walk. We booked a 1.5 hour tour but it only lasted 1 hour because we took a ride to and from the meet up point. Book a photography tour instead if you’d like to spend more time taking pictures. 1 hour was too short! ⭐️Horseshoe Bend: The hike to the viewpoint is about 2.4km round trip. Bring water and wear comfortable shoes. For the best photos, wide-angle lens are important to capture the entire bend in the river. ⭐️Grand Canyon: We chose South Rim instead of West Rim as the West is closer to Las Vegas so we could do a West Rim Helicopter ride next time we’re in Vegas. Besides, it is less developed and offers fewer amenities and viewpoints compared to the South Rim. It is $35 per private vehicle for a pass valid for 7 days. With 20 viewpoints accessible by vehicle, Mather Point, Yavapai Point, and Desert View are the best viewpoints. Use the free shuttle services available to explore different viewpoints without the hassle of driving and parking. #grouptravel

📍 Fontainebleau Las Vegas 2777 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109 Fontainebleau is one of the Strip’s newest mega-resorts—a 67-story, 3,600-plus room tower that feels more like a glossy fashion set than a casino lobby. Think marble rings of floor around giant rose sculptures, champagne-gold chandeliers, and long blue hallways that look designed for slow-motion entrance videos. It’s all very “Miami meets north Strip,” with the bow-tie logo repeating in the ceilings, carpets, and even the driveway lights. Beyond the looks, this place is built to be a full-service base: a 170,000-square-foot casino, dozens of restaurants and bars (many first-to-market concepts), and rooms that lean soft blue and grey with big windows facing either the Strip or the mountains. If you’re here for conventions, it’s right by the Las Vegas Convention Center; if you’re here for nightlife, the BleauLive Theater and on-site clubs keep the energy inside the building so you don’t have to chase Ubers up and down the Strip. #lasvegas #fontainebleau #travel

#itinerarycheck First time in Vegas? Don’t try to see everything ,pick the hotels that are actually worth stopping for. This route covers the most iconic ones: 🚕 Start: Luxor Hotel & Casino 🇪🇬 Getting there: Uber/taxi is easiest. You can also use the free Mandalay Bay–Luxor–Excalibur tram. 👀 Look for: the giant pyramid, Sphinx and the incredible pyramid interior. ❤️New York-New York 🗽 👀 Look for: Statue of Liberty replica, NYC skyline and the Big Apple Coaster. ⭐ Worth a photo stop. ❤️Paris Las Vegas 🇫🇷 👀 Look for: the Eiffel Tower replica and Paris-style streets. ❤️Bellagio ⭐ 👀 Look for: the famous fountains outside and the free Conservatory & Botanical Gardens inside. ⭐ One of the best stops on the Strip. ❤️Caesars Palace 🏛️ ⭐ 👀 Look for: Roman statues, fountains and the impressive Forum Shops. ❤️The Venetian 🇮🇹 ⭐ 👀 Look for: indoor canals, gondolas, painted ceilings and the Grand Canal Shoppes. ⭐ A perfect place to finish. 🚝 Getting around: The Strip is walkable, but distances are deceptive. If your feet give up: · Use the paid Las Vegas Monorail for longer journeys · Use free hotel trams where available: ✔️ Mandalay Bay ↔ Luxor ↔ Excalibur ✔️ Bellagio ↔ Vdara ↔ ARIA 💡 Allow around 4–6 hours with photo stops, or make it a full day if you add food, shopping or attractions. Which hotel would you want to see first? 🎰

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

Awana Spa at Resorts World is a good choice for travelers who want a wellness experience with several distinct spaces. The Fountain of Youth creates a dramatic centerpiece, while the Laconium Room offers a warm, quieter environment for slowing down. The locker area also makes it easier to change, store belongings, and prepare without feeling rushed. When booking, check which amenities are included and whether any rooms require a specific treatment or spa pass. Arriving early is especially useful because Resorts World is large and the route from parking or rideshare drop-off can take longer than expected. The combination of water features, warm rooms, and softly lit interiors makes this an easy place to recharge before returning to restaurants, shows, and other Las Vegas activities. #staycation#thingstodo#resorts

Last spring in Las Vegas, I encountered a dreamlike spring bloom. On the Las Vegas Strip, luxury hotels stand side by side, each with a strong unique style. Touring hotels has become a signature activity in the gambling city. The most popular is the Bellagio, which features a free indoor conservatory garden in its lobby. Surrounded by colorful flowers and sculptures, it feels like stepping into a real-life fairy tale world~

There is nothing quite like summer in Las Vegas! From the shimmering heat on the Strip to the extravagant stay in the resorts, this trip was one for the books. ✨ Living like royal at The Venetian We stayed in a gorgeous suite at The Venetian, and it completely lived up to the hype. The attention to detail inside the hotel is unreal—the indoor canals, the stunning waterfall displays, and the grand floral gown installations made it feel like we were walking through a dream. 🏊♂️ Weekend DJ pool party When you're in Vegas during the summer, pool days are non-negotiable. We spent hours soaking up the sun and cooling off in the waters surrounded by palm trees. On the weekend, there is always DJ playing for the party. When we weren't poolside, we were taking in some incredible bird's-eye views of the iconic Strip, looking out over Treasure Island and the glittering gold Trump tower. 🎭 Strip Nights One of the absolute highlights was watching the gondolas glide along the vibrant blue outdoor canals under the bright desert sky. As the sun set, the city really came alive. From the neon lights of Gilley's to the stunning architecture of the Palazzo, Vegas at night is just pure magic.

As a long-time pass holder of heritage museums & gardens 🤝 I’ve seen it improve year after year. From just having portable restrooms a few years ago to now having very clean, fancy large restrooms, I have to say the membership fee is worth it. I’ve been to many gardens nearby, but this one never gets old! Every time I stroll around, I feel great and get perfect photos. Different flowers and plants bloom at different times, so there’s always something to capture👌🏻 The hydrangea festival is about to bloom soon, many are already open. I love taking photos and will keep coming back to shoot

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.
