Brooklyn's Oasis: The Japanese Pond & Garden
In the midst of Brooklyn's urban jungle, I found a tranquil sanctuary that felt worlds away from the city's hustle and bustle: the Japanese Hill-and-Pond Garden in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. This gem is one of the oldest and most visited Japanese-inspired gardens outside Japan, a testament to the timeless allure of Japanese landscape design.
Combining the ancient hill-and-pond style with the more recent stroll-garden style, this garden is an artful balance of tradition and innovation. The journey through its winding paths revealed a series of carefully orchestrated scenes: the undulating contours of artificial hills around a pond, a waterfall cascading with a gentle roar, and an island standing as an epitome of solitude. The meticulous placement of rocks added to the sense of tranquillity and equilibrium, their silent presence a narrative of Zen philosophy.
The garden's architectural elements further enhanced its authenticity. I crossed over wooden bridges, walked past stone lanterns, and found moments of reprieve in a viewing pavilion and a Shinto shrine. The striking vermilion-coloured wooden torii, a traditional Japanese gate, marked the spiritual significance of the space. As I stood beneath it, the sounds of Brooklyn faded into the distance, and I was momentarily transported to a serene corner of Japan, right here in the heart of New York.

Starlight Stroll: Unveiling SG's Nighttime Charms
As twilight painted the sky, I embarked on a nocturnal exploration of Singapore's bustling city centre. The city, adorned with a tapestry of radiant lights, bloomed like a night flower, offering a sight to behold.
First stop: the iconic Merlion, majestically spouting water against the backdrop of the glimmering skyline, an enduring symbol of Singapore's prosperity. Strolling along Boat Quay, the iridescent reflection of charming colonial buildings on the water's surface enthralled me.
My steps then led me outside CHIJMES, a stunning gothic-style structure, which, under the starlit canopy, felt almost ethereal. The historic complex, with its intricate facades illuminated, narrated a story of architectural grandeur.
Finally, the vibrant, neon-lit strip of Clarke Quay, where the Elgin Bridge was alight with color. The city, now a kaleidoscope of hues, seemed more alive than ever. Truly, the nighttime allure of Singapore is unparalleled.

Philly Footprints: Unraveling the City's Charm
One foot in front of the other, I embarked on a journey through the heart of Philadelphia. My first stop was the Church of the Holy Trinity, an architectural gem with an aura of tranquility that washed over me in calming waves.
I continued on to the rail yard along the Schuylkill River, where the robust industrial past of the city converged with the urban present. The sight of sturdy metal against the flowing river was a fascinating visual paradox.
Following the river's path, I found myself strolling along the Schuylkill River's edge. The gentle murmur of the water complemented the lively city ambiance, creating a soothing soundtrack for my journey.
My day concluded outside the Philadelphia Museum of Art, its majestic façade an inspiring testament to the city's cultural richness. As I gazed upon this iconic structure, I felt deeply connected to the vibrant tapestry of Philly's urban life.

Cleveland - Rock and Dock
Cleveland, Rock and Dock is nice place to spend evening or day on weekend. There are 2-3 restaurants and enough parking space to park cars. It’s near to Rock and Roll Museum and close to Downtown so can park cars a parking is cheaper here. There is also a Cleveland sign to take photos. It somewhat looks like Chicago Navy Pier but a smaller in size and activities. Overall good if you are visiting Cleveland Downtown. #downtown #Cleveland #Visitcleveland #urbanexplorer #cityoverlook #Visitusa #tripblazers #exploresgtogether #tripmoments #travelinspiration #travelphotography #roadtrip #cityscapes

Lost in Bangkok
I went to places randomly just to explore ....
- Yolo Bangkok Boutique Hotel, Sukhumvit 15
- Lemoncurd cafe, Khaosan Rd.
- Q&A bar, Asoke
- WWE, Sukhumvit 19
I'm lost, but I found myself.
I'm thankful for myself that I'm questioning to get the answer that ensured myself what I should do next.
This busy Bangkok taught me something I'm grateful. The diversity here gave me so much to learn and to become a better and stronger...
Unhappy trip, but I'm happy with what I found.

Luxurious stay
When we travel to Bangkok, there is never a lack of luxurious accommodations to choose from. You don’t have to spend a fortune on the big branded 5-star hotels to get a good place to stay. This time for our trip, we decided to go for a cosy but modern apartment that has an awesome city view.
Everything was clean and designed in a contemporary fashion, even the swimming pool was massive and spanned the length of the building. But what was most beautiful was the city skyline view from above, simply breathtaking!
My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Turqoise infinity pool
Clear blue waters and clear blue skies, what’s there not to love? This swimming pool is designed to be an infinity one all the way up on level 9 of the hotel, so you can see incredible panoramic city views while doing laps in the pool. The best part is that we were staying during the weekdays on our holiday there, so there was practically no one in there, becoming like our own private pool.
There are also jacuzzi jets at both sides if you prefer to just chill. One not so ideal thing is that the water can be a bit cold as there is no direct sunlight.
My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Scenic Sky Ranch Tagaytay
Getting There - You can reach Tagaytay by private vehicles or public utility vehicles like buses or cabs. If you take the bus, you can take it at PITX. Tagaytay is one of the closest tourist destinations from Manila. Sky Ranch is easy to find.
Attractions - Sky Ranch Tagaytay is the city’s premier attraction. Most people from the capital, Manila, and neighboring cities visit Sky Ranch whenever they’re in Tagaytay. It’s best to visit Sky Ranch on a clear day. You get to enjoy the rides and the view of the scenic Taal Lake and Taal Volcano.
Hotels - There are hotels nearby. If your plan is to enjoy Sky Ranch, book a hotel that’s near if you don’t have a private vehicle because public transport in Tagaytay is quite limited.
Food & Restaurants - Tagaytay is an expensive place for tourists who have limited budget for meals. Fastfood joints and eateries are lifesavers.
Shopping - Souvenir shopping is something you can do in Sky Ranch or some malls in Tagaytay. The brands you see here are also available in the metro. #urbanexplorer #cityscapes #staycation #themepark #attraction #outoftown
Sunset Walk at Jinji Lake 🌇✨
I went by popular parts of Jinji Lake a lot of times, but I was pleasantly surprised by this side of the lake which is so tranquil for a walk, away from the usual crowd and such a perfect place for snapping 📸 I highly recommend going there before sunset so that you witness golden hour with this beautiful Suzhou skyline 🌇✨ There are also a few benches around to sit and relax 🌿🌱🍃
How to go there ➡️ It’s the pathway along XianDai Avenue, 现代大道,also accessible from Jinju Road 金琚路. I went by taxi. Closest 🚇 is Culture & Expo Center, 文化博览中心

Life of a Tower - Canton Tower (Guangzhou)
Minus the heat and crowd, this attraction is a must see when in Guangzhou. It provides a great view of the surrounding and an awesome place to see the sunset. We took the Bubble Tram which is 298 yuan and that revolves 360⁰ so you get to see every side. There are a lot of souvenir shops, downstairs and outside has plenty restaurants, plus storage lockers you can rent so if you go with anything you'd like to leave you can. If by chance you forget your ID you can just register your information and they give you a temporary one because you need one to get in. I'd recommend going in the evening so you get to see the tower light up at night. You can take a stroll along the river and view from there. This was an amazing experience so go for it! #summervacation #awesomepic #cityscapes #towerview

Bright lights, small city.
This area is often advertised as one of the top 10 things to see in Chongqing. Is it worth it? YES! Is it also one of those places that attracts the hundreds of local and foreign tourists from the whole of Chongqing? Also yes. Be aware that the later you go the more people will come and it will be more than impossible to get through the crowds. My partner and I spent an afternoon at the sky bar in the intercontinental hotel and waited for the lights to come on before taking a short 15 minute walk to this hot photographer spot. We got here around 8:30pm and it was busy by this time already. There are lots of people asking you if you want to buy photos and flowers and the walkway to view this site is actually quite small. Recommended time to go will be just after sunset! Please do not drive or get a taxi late, as the road becomes congested and it will be impossible to leave. #passionpassport #china #gooutside #cityscapes #awesomepic
Jing'an Temple in the predawn haze
It is the best season of the year to enjoy purple nights in Shanghai! Jing'an Temple is one of the most famous attractions here in Shanghai, but even if you are well familiar with it, you can take a chance to get acquainted with it from different perspective!
🏨🏦🏪 There are couple of high rise buildings surrounding the site of the temple, and they are kinda 'opened' to the public😅 The view from the above is absolutely amazing, and you can not only feel, but also see the diverse fabric of the city with different cultural, historic and aesthetical layers.
🚴🏻 One more thing, that you can enjoy, while diving deeper into the night city - is a bicycle ride along empty streets. It is an absolutely surreal experience to witness silent city which is usually overflowing with hustle and bustle.

Nanjing Art
Getting There - Located in Luhe area a little outside of Nanjing city center you’ll find this old community with beautiful paintings. It seems they regularly change the paintings on the walls. I’d suggest getting of the metro at S8 Luhe Development Zone and walk to the community just next to the road there you’ll find a gate.
Attractions - There isn’t much to see around the area, but walking through the community is beautiful.
Hotels - Plenty of hotels available around Nanjing for those who’d like to stay the night or week.
Food & Restaurants - Various food and restaurant options are available all over the city. Do try some local food while you visit.
Shopping - Definitely recommend shopping areas on line 2#urbanexplorer #streetart #streetshots #china #cityscapes #art
Richelle IG richelle_lambert The legendary Bund, Night and Day
The Bund, the symbol of Shanghai, the visual representation of its historical development is a legendary waterfront located on the western bank of Huangpu River in Shanghai. It houses about 52 colonial buildings also referred to as “the museum of buildings” of various architectural styles, including Gothic, baroque and neoclassical styles and on the opposite you have the view of skyscrapers with futuristic architectural styles.
It is the very unique charm of Shanghai where all times are simultaneously present.
There are many ways to experience The Bund.
Among these ways are for example: A nice stroll at any time of the day. There are nice walking areas for sightseeing. Or rather just enjoy a cocktail on the rooftops of one of these historical buildings or hotels and watch the sunset (I recommend to start at 5-6pm). Some of my favorite views are from “Char Bar”, “The VUE Bar”, “Pop Bar” and the more down to earth “The Captain”.
Or if you want a magical experience, after a long night out and sit on one of the benches at the Bund and watch the sunrise and experience the city waking up. It’s beautiful to see the locals practicing Tai-Qi or flying kites when the sun rises in the Morning.
Either way, The Bund is really reflects what makes Shanghai, Shanghai.

OakridgeHorizons Café
Oakridge Horizons Café is located in Oakridge business park, A.S. Fortuna, Mandaue City, Cebu.
It is one of the newest al fresco dining spot serving comfort food and drink and pairing it with a panoramic view of the city skyline.
The café is a very nice chill place whether day or night. The wide space allows you to have intimate conversations. As for me and my friend, we had cocktails on a Saturday night and was serenaded with a local accoustic band. It is also a perfect place for an afternoon meet ups whether business or leisure, or a family affair, because why not. The place feels like a garden after all.
