📍Happy Cheese Smile (474 ​​Ansim-ro, Dong-gu, Daegu) This place is commonly called Hatchis There are many stores in Daegu! It's Happy Cheese Smile💗 It's a snack shop that you can trust because it's so famous (ᵘ ᵕ ᵘ ⁎) We also ordered their signature menu, the pork cutlet plate, fried food and basic tteokbokki! Can a snack shop look like this,,, It's so fantastic..✨ Especially the Happy Smile written in ketchup on the fried food :) They drew an expression on the croquette next to it (*´﹀`*) I was most curious about the pork cutlet plate here! The visuals are amazing.. As expected, it was delicious (*⌒∇⌒*)🥄 While writing, I wanted to visit the place again, Hatchis🌈 #DaeguTravel #DaeguHotPlace #DaeguRestaurant #EatKitList #EverydayLikeATravel #DateCourse #Snack #SnackRestaurant #Tteokbokki #RestaurantExploration

📍Susumilso (153-1 Sangmae-dong, Dong-gu, Daegu) * Be sure to use the street number, not the road name, on the map!!! Susumilso, a large cafe near the Innovation City. It seemed like it was already quite popular as a bakery cafe! I live nearby, but it's a bit difficult to get to without a car, so I kept putting it off until finally visiting! Despite its remote location, it seemed like everyone drove here. ̫ . ! When I visited on the weekend, it was just as crowded as rumored! 🥲 But there wasn't a shortage of seats! Perhaps because the weather was nice, I was able to sit anywhere except outdoors! This cafe is truly huge, with a variety of seating options, from the first to second floors, outdoors, and even on the terrace.〰️ Because it's famous as a bakery cafe, I ordered the Olive Cheese Ciabatta and the Dirty Chocolate Croissant ~(˘▾˘)~ The drinks and bread were both delicious, but the best part about this cafe is the surrounding scenery...👍🏻 I think it would have been even better if I had sat outside.ㅠㅠ I'm sad I didn't get a picture.. ૮ ◞ ﻌ ◟ ა Next time I visit, I'll definitely sit outside. . . #DaeguTravel #InnovationCity #InnovationCityCafe #BakeryCafe #FallTravelDestination #HotCafe #FriendshipTravel #EatList #Dessert #RestaurantWithAView #SuburbanTravel #CapturingEmotion #DriveTrip #Dessert

📍Jeonwon Charcoal Grill (375 Ansim-ro, Dong-gu, Daegu) This place has been open for over 10 years. But it's still packed during meal times! I think the lunch special here is Youngyang Dolsotbap or Gondre Dolsotbap or Naengmyeon with meat.👍🏻 The menu I ate today is Youngyang Dolsotbap Set! It took a while for it to come out, so I grilled meat while waiting. The side dishes here were also really delicious, so I was able to refill them several times and eat until I was full.. They even had drinks when I left, so I didn't overeat..〰️ It's a chain, so it seems like there are stores in many areas, so visit on days when you crave meat! #DaeguTravel #EatKitList #EverydayLikeTravel #RestaurantExploration #PorkRibs #DolsotBap #KoreanFood

📍 13 Dongdaegu-ro 14-gil, Suseong-gu, Daegu This is the Hannam Suseong branch of Palette, a Western restaurant famous for its beautiful plating in Suseong-gu, Daegu. It's a truly delicious restaurant that will amaze you both with its visuals and its delicious flavors. The spicy and rich Palette pasta paired with the soft omelet rice is especially delicious! The clean interior is also perfect.☺️ 🔅Opening Hours: 11:30-21:00, Open 365 Days a Year 🔅Break Time: 3:30-5:00 PM, Mon-Fri #DaeguTravel #EatList #SuseongGuRestaurants #DaeguPastaRestaurants

📍Nun Delight A quiet and small cafe in my neighborhood, Nun Delight The photos came out really well because the natural light poured in.. It was a quiet and cozy cafe.. (˶ ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ ˶) You can see the natural light pouring in even in the photos! 🍊Orange Chocolat 🌿Matcha Gateau 🍋Lemon Limeade ☕️Latte The drink menu is not that big, but this place was known as a dessert restaurant! If you look at the full shot, there was only one cake.... I remember ordering more because it was all delicious (⌒▽⌒); I have a feeling it's gone now since I can't see it anymore.. It's become a place of such great memories🥲 #DaeguTravel #YouthTravel #HotCafe #EatKitList #MemoriesForSelling #Dessert #FeelingEmotional #EverydayLikeATravel #NaturalLight #Cafe

There are places where the landscape feels almost unreal—and South Sinai, Egypt, is one of them. Here, rugged desert mountains rise dramatically beside the brilliant blue and turquoise waters of the Red Sea, creating a breathtaking contrast between stone, sand, and sea. The coastline around Dahab, Nuweiba, Taba, and Sharm El-Sheikh offers a remarkable combination of golden beaches, ancient-looking mountains, clear water, and vibrant marine life. The Sinai mountains seem to flow directly toward the coast, making every viewpoint feel like a natural postcard. 🏔️ Mountains of Sinai The mountains are one of the region's defining features. Their rugged shapes and warm red-brown tones create a striking backdrop against the deep blue sky and sea. Mount Sinai (Jebel Musa) rises to about 2,285 meters and is deeply significant in the religious history of the region. 🌊 The Red Sea Along the coast, the scenery changes completely. Crystal-clear waters, colorful coral reefs, sandy coves, and dramatic cliffs make the Red Sea famous for its underwater landscapes. Taba, Dahab, and the Sharm El-Sheikh area are particularly known for snorkeling, diving, beaches, and marine life. 🌅 A Landscape of Contrasts Perhaps the most beautiful part is the contrast: ancient mountains on one side, endless blue water on the other. At sunrise and sunset, the rocky peaks take on golden and reddish tones while the sea reflects the changing sky. Egypt is often associated with pyramids, temples, and the Nile—but South Sinai reveals another side of the country: wild, peaceful, dramatic, and incredibly photogenic. Egypt isn't only a journey through history. It's a journey through landscapes. 🇪🇬🏔️🌊 #Egypt #SouthSinai #SinaiMountains #Dahab #Taba #SharmElSheikh #Nuweiba #EgyptTravel #TravelEgypt #MountainAndSea #RedSeaRiviera #NatureLovers #TravelPhotography #Wanderlust #BeautifulDestinations

All activities packed into one thrilling day: starting with arrival at the desert, savoring Bedouin tea, followed by quad biking, camel riding, and an exciting Jeep ride through the canyon. Breakfast includes cheese, honey, and freshly-made Bedouin bread. Afterward, it's off to Taba for yacht-based marine activities like diving and snorkeling, accompanied by a tasty lunch. You'll also enjoy stunning views of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Israel before heading back to Sharm El-Sheikh. Thanks to the Lost Land team!

Our guide Mounir was a very welcoming and energetic host during our 3-day trip to Nuweiba/Taba. All the activities were well-organized, and there was plenty of leisure time to unwind by the serene Red Sea.

Where the mountains meet the Red Sea! Taba is a peaceful gem in Egypt with crystal-clear waters, golden beaches, and stunning views of nearby Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Perfect for a quiet escape. #Taba #Egypt #RedSea #HiddenGem #FeaturedMoment

#Southeast Asia Flight Ticket Event The border between Israel and Egypt. It is the Taba border. It is an area that can be crossed by land and there is a checkpoint. There are flags here and there indicating the Israeli border, and the parking lot had a large sign that said "Welcome to Israel." You cannot pass without a passport.

Fours Bay is a small bay with an amazing view. If you pass through Taba, you must take a picture of this view. If you look to the other side, you will see the city of Aqaba or the bottom of the Gulf of Aqaba. Saladin Marine Castle is located on the Red Sea coast south of Taba, Egypt, on the border with Israel in Eilat. Built in the 12th century by Saladin, Sultan of Egypt, the castle was used to protect the coast from enemy invasions and to watch over the pilgrims traveling to Saudi Arabia. It was also a meeting place for generals at that time. Today, the castle is a popular tourist attraction where tourists can visit the fortress, learn about its history, and enjoy the magnificent sea view.

In the Daegu area natural park. To your heart's content. Be intoxicated by nature and fall in love. It's really splendid. I highly recommend it.

What an amazing trip to Taba, when you can mix between sun, beach & mountains! very beautiful place to spend your next vacation ♥️♥️#taba#egypt
