Best water View In Quaron lake ' Magic lake '
Known to locals as “The Pond” (El-Birka), the lake’s name may derive from the horn (qorn) shaped peak on an island in the middle, but Fayoumis believe that it’s named after a character in the Koran, who was swallowed up by the earth as a punishment for being “exultant in his riches”. The lake is favoured as a bathing resort by the local people and the season runs all year round however swimming is not recommended from January to April due to the cooler climate.

Magic Quaron Lake Egypt Pharonic Wonder
Lake Qarun itself is an immensely popular site for avid bird watchers and nature lovers with many species of bird life and green areas.
Short of tankers gliding between the sandbanks of the Suez Canal, Egypt has no weirder juxtaposition of water and desert than Lake Qaroun (Birket Qaroun), where fishing boats bob against a backdrop of arid hills and the immensity of the Western Desert.

Nema Bay Sharm El Shiekh Morning Walking Exploring Places
Wonderful place for Parasailing, banana boat and snorkeling. We as a family had a good time doing water sports here. You need to negotiate the price at the beginning. They shoot photos and videos of your activity and provide a CD at a cost (which is negotiable) as well.
Lively place during evenings only , if you are in Sharm this is a must see place and sped 3-4 hrs walking around having a beverage in one of its coffee shops or even having a meal since there is a good number of restaurants around the place covering wide variety of kitchens , two rows walks almost parallel called mashaya are the main attraction hotels in the area are little out of date. Its good for one visit not more.
Lovely beach, with beautiful sunsets in the evening, packed with shops, bars and restaurants, perfect for just strolling along or shopping, you’ll probably get stopped every few mins by shop keepers, a polite no thanks and you”ll be free to continue to explore the beautiful bay.
Beautiful place, very alive, you can find vegan options at the restaurants! A place to visit with friends to have fun and you can visit it with family to have some quality time. But a bit expensive specially when they know you're a foreigner, and they don't let you go without stopping you and offering you tours all the way all the time.

Night Boat Riding At Qaroun Lake Egypt Wonder
I've visited the Fayoum 3 times now and every time I love it more and I feel I get another layer to it. It's a great day out and one day I just might stay in the camp too. We took a boat out onto the lake this time.. lovely!
Lake Qarun, located about 80 kilometers southwest of Cairo in the Egyptian Fayoum not far from the Nile Valley, is one of Egypt's most treasured natural landmarks and a resource that has helped support human culture for some 8,000 years. It is the only natural contemporary lake of any size in Middle Egypt. It is therefore rich in both natural and archaeological resources.
Lake Qarun is the third largest lake in Egypt and the second most famous one after Lake Nasser in the Southern part of Egypt. It lies some 45 meters below sea level and occupies the lowest, northern section of the Fayoum depression. People in Fayoum believe that if one has not visited the lake then one has not visited the Fayoum.
Within the Fayoum, it is simply referred to as the Berka, which means "the small lake" in Arabic. The lake has the most beautiful picturesque views and taking a small boat on the lake is a wonderful experience.
The lake has an interesting history and there are some fascinating theories about how it came to be known as Lake Qarun. The lake and the nearby Qaser Qarun are said to take their names from the Greco-Roman city of Karanis to the east. However, the lake was known in the thirteenth century, some eight hundred years after the abandonment of Karanis, as Birka El Seid, or "the lake of fishing" in Arabic.
Therefore, many believe that it is unlikely that Karanis would today influence the lake's name.
Others claim a connection with the word Qarn, or "horn" in Arabic, and indeed E W Lane recorded in the 1820 the name of the lake as Birka Qarn. He said that it took its name from the island in the middle, which has a small horn peak. However, Lane was the only one who claimed this explanation. Travelers both before and after him gave the name of the lake as Qarun.
The most popular story is that the lake and the temple take their name from an individual who was suppose to have lived in the area, and who is mentioned in both the bible (Numbers 16) and the Quran (al-Qasas 76).
In the bible, he appears as Korah, who rebels against Moses and is promptly punished by god, being swallowed up in the earth along with his entire family and possessions. In the Quran, he appears as a man exultant in his richness.
It is a well known story in Egypt that this man had the ability to touch anything and turn it into gold. Some believe that his treasure is still hidden somewhere under the water of the lake. This man finally meets the wrath of god, again by being swallowed up in the earth. The Quran states that, God does not love the exultant."

Tourist Explores Beautiful Places In Poland
Poland has survived centuries of conflict to emerge as a proud, independent country, ready to assume her new role in modern history. Visitors to Poland are discovering what the locals have long known, that Poland is a country rich in fine culture, scenic landscapes and extraordinary historical sites. Whether exploring the nation’s vibrant cities, the lakes and forests of her picturesque countryside or some of the other tourist attractions in Poland, visitors are sure to bring away rich memories.
People have lived upon the site of Wawel Castle since the Paleolithic Age. The castle itself was first built in the 14th century, at the command of Polish monarch Casimir III the Great. The Gothic castle is home to the only preserved piece of the Polish Crown Jewels, the legendary sword Szczerbiec coronation sword. Decorated with symbols and floral patterns, the blade is notched to hold a small shield, giving the sword its nickname, the Jagged Sword.
A visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau is a powerful experience that words can scarcely describe. The immense size of the infamous Nazi concentration camp is the first thing to strike visitors as they approach the entrance to the memorial and museum in Oswiecim, Poland. Devoted to the memory of the murders in the camps during World War II, Auschwitz-Birkenau has been visited by more than 25 million people.

Riding An Old Elephant First Time In Sri Lanka
I was Very Curious in my jorney to sri lanka to try riding elephants for the first time , It took me a while to decide to take my chance and try it , It was an amazing adventure and i really recommend people who visit sri lanka to try the 10 mins riding elephants.
Elephant Back Safaris not only make it possible to view wildlife while riding an elephant, but also the opportunity to become part of it. The holiday makers may opt to share a day with the majestic beast by picnicking in the bush in the shadow of the elephant or by swimming, grooming, feeding the elephant too. The most popular locations of Elephant Back Safaris are Habarana, Sigiriya and Kaudulla.
All Elephant Back Safaris are accompanied by the mahout. A wooden saddle, a basket like enclosure upon a wooden platform is large enough to carry four passengers. Riders need to be on alert to stoop down to avoid being knocked by the overhanging branches of trees along the path.
Habarana, located 210km north east from Colombo is the transit point for the large herds of wild elephants at the National Parks of Minneriya and Kaudulla. Habarana is a popular location among the wildlife enthusiasts and nature tourists. Moreover, Habarana being the central location of the cultural triangle of Sri Lanka, attracts many culture tourists. The irrigation reservoirs and waterways of the area bring in a riverine terrain where the elephants would wade through, or swim to reach the banks in the further end. The ride would take you over the main road, the pathways, villages, jungles, swamp and river.
The best period for Elephant Back Safaris at Habarana is during March to July when the water level of the river is high enough to ride the elephant. From August to November the level of water in the river is low. During December to February when it’s the rainy season at Habarana, the river would flow.
A ten minute drive east of Habarana is Minneriya National Park, famous for large herds of elephants. A fifteen minute drive north east is Kaudulla National Park, another regular tourist attraction in view of its large herds of elephants. Elephant back safaris in these National parks afford opportunities to enjoy the sight of wild elephants as well as the bird-life.
The tamed elephants are accompanied by mahouts carrying a lightweight spear, to control the animal in case of an emergency. Elephant Back Safaris afford the opportunity to riders to be familiar with behavior of the elephants.
Elephant Back Safaris at Yala National Park brings in the chance to enjoy the sights of wildlife and birdlife that live abound in the wilderness. Yala National Park is one of the most popular National Parks in Sri Lanka.
