The room was small, and the breakfast looked impressive, but the selection was limited, and it cost 700 NTD per serving, so I wouldn't recommend buying it. The location wasn't very close to the subway, but it was still in Ginza.

#myhiddengems If the idea of finding and visiting of beat leaves appeals to you. Say a place that combines the benefits of a peaceful destination, cultural offerigs and more importantly very few tourists. Then Molise, amongst the smallest of regions in Italy should definitely be on your list. Set amidst the hills and narrow roads that wind between them, Molise has the Adriatic Coast to the east and Apennine Mountains to the west. In terms of it's historical appeal, Molise has the National Paleolithic Museum, built on a site that is thousands and thousands of years old. And amongst the highlight of this region is Archaeological area of Saepinum, close to the border with Campania and the Matese Regional Park. One of the best-preserved archaeological sites in Italy, Saepinum was founded by the Romans and has a wide range of artefacts from the period. The landscape of Molise is typically hills and valleys which draws hiking enthusiasts. I was put up in the seaside town of Tremboli which was a good balance of things. Great food options, decent affordable places to stay and a nice sandy beach for the day time lazing. #myhiddengems #italia #solotrip #100waysoftravel #singapore

Termoli Borgo Antico only had half an hour to stroll through the old town, but it was still stunning. I discovered that Termoli is the only big stop among the five villages that has a beach and luxury hotels, but it still has such a charming old town. The little shops inside look very cute, and the black and white striped church is also very tasteful.
