IGUAZU FALLS
In 2008,
there is the movie which is my favourite movie ever. The movie was released on
22 May 2008 and it grossed $311 million worlwide within its first day of
release. The film is Indiana Jones and the Kingdome of the Crystal Skull that
directed by Steven Spielberg and starring by the top actor like Harrrison Ford
and Cate Blanchett. One of my favourite scene is at The Iguazu Falls that realy
attract me to go there someday. So, for this holiday I choose to go there to
make my dream come true.
Iguazu Falls
are waterfalls of the Iguazu River on the border of the Brazilian state of
Paraná and the Argentinian province of Misiones . The falls divide the river
into the upper and lower Iguazu. The river flows through Brazil even most of
the falls are on the Argentina side.
The name of
Iguazu are comes from the Guarani or Tupi words "y " [ɨ] , meaning
"water", and "ûasú "[waˈsu] , meaning "big". The
legend begin when a god planned to marry a beautiful woman named Naipi that
already have a lover. The god became angry and sliced the river, creating the
watertfalls and kill that lover to an enternal fall.
On 11
November 2011, Iguazu fall was announced as one of the seven winner of the New
Seven Wonders of Nature by the New Seven Wonders of the World Foundation. This
falls was found by the European named Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca in 1541.
Argentina
was monopoly by the European by 97% and only 0.2% was the Asian. The official
language of this country is Spanish. So when you want to go to Iguazu Falls makesure you know the basic of
Spanish to avoided to be cheated. The peso
is the currency of Argentina with symbol $. The currency between Ringgit
Malaysia and Peso (Mexican) is 1 Malayasian Ringgit = 4.0945 Mexican pesos.
Argentina is
the free company and you freely to apply any religion but for the Islam muslim
like me, of corse we need a Halal food through to survive this journey. So, my
advice is to bring an instant Halal food from Malaysia like some instant
noodle, bread with jem because its very hard to find a Halal restaurant nor the
vegeterian restaurant at Iguanzu Falls.
For the safe
journey I suggested you to used the travel guide tour. After a lot of research,
I choose www.Iguassufalltour.com to be my travel
guide which is highly recommended and suggested by the others tourist.
From Kuala
Lumpur, I need to go to the Buenos Aires which is the capital city of Argentina
to get to The Ezeiza International Airport, Argetina by the Malaysia Airlines that
take the time about 20 hrs, 36 mins and
the distance is 9921.3 Miles.
There are of
coarse many way to get to The Iguazu Falls but I choose to start the adventure
from the Argentina because coicidencly i get a promotion ticket from The Malayasia
Airlines. After I land in Argentina, I’m taking the flight to the town of
Puerto Iguazu from the Buenos Aires that take a time about 90 minutes. There is
two airport which are The Ezeiza International Airport and The El Aeroparque
who is the domestic airport. So, I have to take the taxi to make the transfer
between the airports. The next step I just follow our tourist guide.
This is
summary of our journey to get to The Iguazu Falls from Malaysia.
- · 20.5-hour flight from Kuala Lumpur to The Ezeiza International Airport
- · An hour-long taxi from Ezeiza International Airport to El Aeroparque Jorge Newbery
- · 1.5-hour flight from Buenos Aires to Puerto Iguazú
The accommodations are either in the town of Puerto Iguazú or The
Sheraton Iguazú (which is within the National Park boundary). If you're staying
in Puerto Iguazú, you either need a bus or a taxi to get to the visitor center
in the National Park. From there, you can take a short train ride or walk to
get up to Iguazu Falls. However, if you're staying at the park at Sheraton
Iguazú, you can just walk for about 15 minutes from the hotel to the falls.
Sometimes moonlight tours are conducted at Iguazu Falls. Some tourist just walk
to the falls and some tourist participate in moonlight tours.
At Iguazu Falls, there much more to do than walking the trails and
catwalk. These activity let you experience the grand waterfalls in many other
exciting ways such as:
·
- Jet Boat Excursion – this thrilling joy ride bring us to the bottom of Iguazu Falls itself. We also visited the waterfall that have been called as Three Musketeers and the gushing Salto San Martin.
·
- Helicopter Ride – this activity only allowed by the Brazil goverment but not for the Argentina goverment because of the environmental impact on the flora and fauna. This activity will show us the beauty of the Iguanzu Falls from a birds eye view.
·
- Jungle Safaris – these tours are more education because it will be handle by the park ranger.
·
- Itaipu Dam – this dam is the largest hydroelectric in the world and it worth to be visited.
·
- Rapeling – this activity is where you are tied to a rope and descend down a vertical cliff face on the Brazilian side of Iguazu falls.
*Note that the park generally closes after 6pm and doesn't open
until 8am.

GUOLIANG TUNNEL ROAD, CHINA.
Im a kind of a girl that love adventure, love something that I think dangerous and adventured enough to challenge my braver. Actually this kind of challenging thing is important to prepare our self to not scared or easy to give up if challenging problem popup in our life.
The next destination that I choose is to go to one of the
most dangerous and challenging bridge in the world. Even this is the dangerous
things to do and you may thinks that places like this will not be visited by
the tourism around the world. But like person like me, there is still a person
that love and willing to visited places like this. Even this place is adventure
there is still unique because of their own nature attraction.
This road is located in the Taihana Mountains in the Hunan
Province of China and before its construction in 1972, access to Guoliana
village was restricted to a treacherous path carved into the mountain face.
Guoliang is also known as Guoliangcun. In Chinese, "cun" means
"Village", i.e. Guoliangcun is the Village of Guoliang.
The tunnel was built by local villagers: it took five years
to finish the 1,200 metre long tunnel which is about 5 meters high and 4 meters
wide. Some of the villagers died in accidents during construction; undaunted,
the others continued. On May 1, 1977, the tunnel was opened to traffic. It is
located in the Taihang Mountains, in the Hunan Province of China.
Guoliang Tunnel Road is pretty freaky with its 30 windows of
various sizes and shapes. The road is not as deadly as Bolivian Yungas Road but
is spooky enough when you look down the bottomless cavity and also those weird
rocks hanging from above the cliff. The magnificent tunnel road in the Taihang mountains
was built by 13 local villagers headed by their chief, Shen Mingxin, and took
around five years to finish. Many villagers lost their lives in accidents
during construction of the tunnel but the others continued relentlessly. The
tunnel was opened to traffic on May 1st, 1977
Dubbed as the road that does not tolerate any mistakes, most
accidents in the tunnel are primarily caused by the neglect of the traveller.
Nonetheless, it is an extremely scenic route and is a key destination on the
Chinese tourism map.
The Guoliang Tunnel is carved along the side of and through
a mountain in China. The tunnel links the Guoliang Village to the outside
through the Taihang Mountains which are situated in the Huixian, Xinxiang,
Henan Province of China.
Before the tunnel was constructed, access to the nearby Guoliang Village was restricted to a difficult path carved into the mountainside. The village is nestled in a valley surrounded by towering mountains cut off from outside civilization. In 1972 a group of villagers led by Shen Mingxin made plans to carve a road into the side of the mountain. Thirteen villagers began the project, but several died during construction. The tunnel is 1.2 kilometres (0.75 mi) long, 5 metres (16 ft) tall and 4 metres (13 ft) wide.
On 1 May 1977 the tunnel was opened to traffic. The
completion of the tunnel was a major leap forward for the villagers, as it
became a tourist attraction when China opened its borders to international
tourists.
China capital city is Beijing. China are monopoly by the
Chinese with the population is 1,353,821,000 people in 2012. Standard Chinese
is the official language of China but there is also hundred of language that
have been practic in their daily life.The Chinese Yuan is the currency of
China. The currency between Ringgit Malaysia and Chinese Yuan is 1 Malayasian
Ringgit = 1.90 Chinese Yuan.

There is like a green forest with the crystal lake and the best part is like
you just at Everest too because this lake and forest surrounding by the floury

True or
