Trip Moment recommendations

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

Would you start with the suckling pig or the seafood? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #sgfoodtrend #sgbuffet #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #tanjongpagarfood #cantonstreetkitchen #platecarltoncity #carltoncityhotel #hongkongfood #singaporebuffet

No need to fly to Provence! In the mountains and fields of Huzhou, my bestie and I discovered a dreamlike Anadu Olive Estate. In winter, there’s no bleakness here—only the warm Mediterranean sunlight hues, hills covered with olive trees, and ultimate tranquility, as if instantly transported to a private estate in southern France. 🚗 Arrival: The Beginning of a Ceremony It’s about a 2-hour drive from Hangzhou or Shanghai. The estate is tucked away on the gentle slopes of the Moganshan Mountains, offering great privacy. Passing through the gate marked by iconic olive trees and winding up the private road, the full view of the estate gradually unfolds: the off-white main building, the deep blue infinity pool, and olive groves stretching across the hills—a scene so beautiful it feels unreal. 🛏️ Stay Embraced by Olive Trees We stayed in the “Yingtian” room, featuring a large terrace and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. The room design blends elegant Nordic and southern French styles, with wood and linen textures that bring comfort. The best part is the balcony facing layers of olive groves, where winter sunlight turns the leaves silvery gray, and a breeze stirs a shimmer of light—you could quietly watch this all afternoon. 🌳 Exclusive Experiences at the Olive Estate Olive Grove Walk: Guided by the estate’s butler, learn about different olive tree varieties and the process from fruit to oil. The air is filled with the fresh scent of plants. Olive Oil Tasting: The estate produces its own extra virgin olive oil. In a professional tasting class, we learned how to observe color, smell aroma, and savor flavors, experiencing the distinct taste differences of various olive oils on the palate—a very fun experience. Bonfire Under the Stars: The estate’s bonfire area faces the valley. At night, light a fire and warm yourself around it. The estate’s homemade olive wine has a unique flavor, paired with roasted oranges—this is the ultimate winter night delight. 🍽️ Farm-to-Table Feast Anadu’s dining is a highlight. Many ingredients come from the estate or local partner farms. Dinner is a chef’s customized menu, with exquisite dishes from appetizers to desserts, cleverly incorporating olive oil and olive elements, creating a layered taste experience. The semi-buffet breakfast also offers very authentic local flavors. 📷 Photography Inspiration Notes Olive Grove Portraits: Wear white or earth tones, walk into the olive grove, and use the tree trunks’ lines and light and shadow to capture high-end forest-style shots. Infinity Pool Distant View: Although winter isn’t for swimming, the pool as the foreground with distant mountains and estate buildings as the background makes for a grand composition. Room Terrace: Use the olive groves as a backdrop to shoot breakfast or afternoon tea scenes, full of vacation vibes and lifestyle aesthetics. 💌 Warm Tips Estate activities like tasting classes and cycling require advance booking. Outdoor temperatures are low in winter, but indoor floor heating is sufficient; bring clothes suitable for indoor and outdoor temperature differences. This place is extremely quiet and private, perfect for a duo of besties needing complete relaxation and escape from the hustle. At Anadu Olive Estate, time is measured by the olive tree rings and the sunshine on your plate. It offers a completely different vacation style filled with plant fragrances and earth energy. If you and your bestie love nature, food, and tranquility, this will be your secret garden. Remember to search its name on Trip.com to start this journey through time.

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

Friends, who understands! When you come to Singapore, don’t just rush to the crowded tourist spots! This time in the Lion City, I finally made up for the hidden gems I missed during my 2023 work trips. These three places are all loved by locals, with fewer people and beautiful scenery. You can easily explore one in just half a day without tiring your legs! ✅ Tuas Link Raffles Lighthouse Take the green line to the last stop! Highly recommend going at dusk! I arrived right at the 6:30 PM sunset. That day had very few clouds, and the orange-pink sunset paired with the seaside lighthouse was stunning. When the blue hour came, I couldn’t stop snapping photos on my phone! ⚠️ If you’re staying on the east side, make sure to leave early! The trip is quite far, so don’t rush and miss the sunset! ✅ East Coast Park If you want to experience local life, head straight here! Navigate to Marine Parade MRT Station (TE26)! Don’t just search for the park directly, or you might end up walking forever! Just cross the underpass and you’re at the seaside. Watching the sunrise in the morning or chasing the sunset in the evening is amazing. Many locals cycle and stroll here, enjoying the sea breeze for an hour, totally chill! ⚠️ Some sections were under construction when I visited, so don’t wander aimlessly! Returning the same way to the MRT station is the safest bet! ✅ Botanic Gardens Who doesn’t love a tropical rainforest in the city center! Try to arrive before 10 AM! It’s less crowded and cooler, filled with tropical greenery and the fresh scent of grass. There’s none of the noisy square dancing by older folks, just locals leisurely walking around. It’s so relaxing you won’t want to leave! ⚠️ Free entry! Free entry! Free entry! Important enough to say three times! Remember to wear sunscreen and mosquito repellent so you don’t get bitten! After visiting these places, I really feel emotional. The sights I missed in 2023, I finally caught up on in 2026. Sometimes, traveling doesn’t mean rushing through an itinerary. Taking it slow and exploring places locals love is the most comfortable way to travel~

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Regular cars need to park near Cha Ping Hotel, then hike about 2-5 kilometers up the mountain along the farm road to the left of the hotel. High-clearance SUVs or four-wheel-drive vehicles can try driving directly up the mountain, but the mountain road is narrow and passing is difficult, so drive cautiously. Tour and Photography Guide Start from the parking spot at Cha Ping Hotel and hike up the mountain along the farm road on the left. Along the way, you can enjoy sea of flowers and reservoir views. Recommended photo spots: Small hill on the left side of the reservoir: classic angle to capture the sea of flowers, reservoir, and distant mountains. Backlit path at the mountain top: soft lighting, perfect for portrait silhouettes. Photography tips: It is recommended to wear light-colored, flowing long dresses paired with accessories like straw hats. You can also bring a bubble machine. Accommodation Recommendations 🏨 Core accommodation: Quanzhou Tianhu Cha Ping Hotel (the only hotel inside the scenic area) Room rates (per night): vary greatly between low and peak seasons, reference price 275-515 RMB, please check specific dates yourself. Buffet breakfast: 28 RMB per person. Accommodation deposit: 200 RMB per room. Food Guide Vinegar Duck Blood (Quanzhou specialty) Guilin "Wangcheng Vinegar Duck Blood Old Shop" average cost per person: 40-53 RMB. Set meals offer better value. During peak dining hours (6-7:30 PM), waiting is common. Quanzhou Red Oil Rice Noodles: Local price: 5 RMB (one liang) to 5.5 RMB (two liang), adding a marinated egg costs about 1.5 RMB. Hehua Fish and other farmhouse dishes: Mountain hotel restaurant: prices are reasonable, portions are average. Snack supplies: There are no shops on the mountain, so be sure to buy drinking water and snacks in the county town in advance. One-day Highlights Tour: Depart from Quanzhou County in the morning → Arrive and hike around Cha Ping Reservoir in the morning → Afternoon for photography and relaxation → Return in the evening. Two-day In-depth Tour: Day 1: Arrive at Tianhu Resort Area, visit Cha Ping Reservoir, stay overnight in the mountain area for stargazing. Day 2: Early morning cloud sea sunrise viewing, visit other reservoirs or wind farm landscapes in Tianhu, return in the afternoon.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

This trip to Norway, Bergen left us with a deep impression‼️ This city on Norway’s west coast is surrounded by seven mountains and fjords, known as the gateway to the Norwegian fjords. The old town is colorful, with vibrant wooden houses lining the waterfront at the harbor. All of this makes this rainy city full of poetry and tranquility✨ ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍Bergen The ancient city center of Bergen is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here you can find old streets, medieval houses, and cobblestone roads. You can admire medieval architecture and historical traces, feeling the charm of this ancient city. The old market square is one of the must-see spots and also the port for Royal Caribbean cruises. 📍Bergen Fish Market The Bergen Fish Market is one of Norway’s most famous fish markets. Here you can taste fresh seafood and delicious fish soup. The colorful wooden houses by the water in the market are very beautiful. This is one of Bergen’s most distinctive attractions and worth a visit. 📍Bryggen Museum The Bryggen Museum complex is one of Bergen’s most famous attractions, including 18 museums and galleries. It houses many precious historical artifacts and artworks. Here you can deeply learn about Norway’s history and culture. There are medieval churches, museums, and galleries, making it an excellent place to understand Norwegian history and culture. 📍Mount Fløyen Mount Fløyen is one of Bergen’s highest peaks and one of the best spots to overlook the entire city. Here you can enjoy magnificent fjord views and panoramic cityscapes. You can also take a cable car to the summit to admire the stunning scenery. It’s also a paradise for hiking enthusiasts, with many trails to choose from. 📍Bergen Cathedral A landmark building in Norway’s second-largest city, Bergen, this Gothic cathedral has been rebuilt multiple times after fires. Its green roof and white walls stand out prominently in the city. Built in the 12th century, this Gothic cathedral is an important symbol of Bergen’s history and religious culture. 🍽️【Restaurant Recommendations】 🔸Bryggeloftet & Stuene: 🌟 4.5 Bergen’s oldest restaurant with an elegant dining atmosphere, serving authentic Bergen cuisine. 🔸Egon Kjottbasaren: 🌟 4.1 A chain restaurant offering great value with pasta, pizza, and burgers. Highly recommend the cod fillet and delicious Norwegian fish soup! 🔸Fjåk Chocolate Shop & Café: 🌟 4.8 A chocolate shop in the city center. Having a warm cup of hot chocolate here in winter is pure happiness~ ⛅️【Weather & Clothing】 🔹Raincoat is a must: Bergen rains over 200 days a year, so its nickname “Rain City” is well deserved. Regardless of the weather forecast, always bring a raincoat or umbrella. A waterproof jacket is very practical here. 🔹Keep warm: Even in summer, the wind on the mountain tops and by the sea is strong with noticeable temperature differences. It’s recommended to dress in layers for easy adjustment. If you take a fjord cruise, remember to bring a hat, scarf, and gloves as it can get very cold. 💡【Accommodation & Transportation】 ▪️Accommodation choice: It’s recommended to stay near the harbor, such as next to Bryggen Wharf, making it very convenient to reach the old town, fish market, and cable car station by foot. ▪️Transportation: Most city attractions are within walking distance since the city center is smaller than expected. For longer trips, you can use Google Maps or the Vy App (covering Bergen and Oslo areas) for navigation and ticket purchase. A Nordic secret more magical than a fairy tale 🇳🇴 Bergen — The colorful kingdom painted by Hayao Miyazaki Bergen is not only the gateway to the Norwegian fjords But also a key center of Norwegian culture and history🏕️

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

In Grindelwald, I truly experienced what it means to be stunningly beautiful 🌿 There is no city noise or hustle here, only tranquility and beauty~ It feels as if everything has been paused, enjoying this rare leisurely time ✨ 🌿 A little secret first “If there were a sequel to ‘Heidi and Grandpa,’ the filming location would definitely still be here.” The moment the train emerges from the tunnel—the snowy mountains unfold like a curtain, the grassy slopes layer upon layer, wooden houses scattered like chocolate chips, and even the cowbells sound like a 3D surround healing soundtrack. 🕰️ How does time pass here? 🔹 06:30 Morning mist dyes the pine needles silver, the first ray of sunlight falls on the north face of the Eiger, and the hillside instantly turns into golden terraces. 🔹 11:00 Cloud shadows slowly crawl over the green carpet, cows lower their heads to graze, swishing their tails, and time sways along. 🔹 19:30 The sunset paints the wooden window frames rose-colored, smoke drifts from chimneys with the scent of firewood—like the smell of grandma’s house from childhood memories. 🔹 22:00 Lights go out one by one, the Milky Way rises behind the snowy mountains, the hillside turns into piano keys, and the stars are dancing notes. ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍 Dreamy Hillside (Grindelwald Grund) This is Grindelwald’s most iconic landscape, with traditional wooden houses and grazing cattle and sheep on the green meadows nearby, and the magnificent snowy views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks in the distance, as if stepping into a fairy tale world. 📍 Jungfrau Take the cogwheel train from Grindelwald to the summit (ticket price 162 CHF/second class), transfer at Kleine Scheidegg, and reach Europe’s highest train station (3454 meters)! The Ice Palace at the top and the Sphinx Observatory overlook the Aletsch Glacier, leaving you speechless with awe. 📍 First Mountain Take the cable car directly to First Mountain, an excellent way to experience the Alpine scenery. 📍 Viewing Platform The viewing platform at the top of First offers a wide view, allowing close-up sights of the north face of the Eiger and the Schreckhorn. 📍 Cliff Walk From the cable car station, the First Cliff Walk takes about 20 minutes to complete. The viewing platform at the end extends into the air, offering breathtaking views. 📍 Mountain Karting Drive a kart from Schreckfeld station down to Bort station. It’s thrilling and fun, but queues can be long during peak season, so allow plenty of time. 🖼️【Recommended Hiking Routes】 🟡 Bort Downhill Hike: Walk from Bort cable car station down to Grindelwald town, about 4-5 km one way, moderate difficulty. Along the way, enjoy open grassy slopes, woods, and wooden houses—a great choice to experience the town’s pastoral charm. 🟡 Town to Bort Cable Car Station: This route is about 5 km one way with a total ascent of 450 meters, offering panoramic views of the valley. The autumn colors are especially stunning. 🏡【Accommodation Recommendations】 1️⃣ Best Value: Jugendherberge Grindelwald (Youth Hostel): Around ¥300 per person, balcony facing the Eiger! 2️⃣ Scenic Highlight: Derby Swiss Quality Hotel: Next to the train station, three-star, rooms with windows opening to the “Dreamy Hillside,” includes sauna + 3 restaurants. 3️⃣ Light Luxury Experience: Romantik Hotel Schweizerhof: Five-star wooden chalet hotel, cheese fondue with snowy mountain sunset, full of atmosphere! 💡【Practical Tips】 ▪️ Transportation: Take the train from Interlaken East Station about 30 minutes directly to Grindelwald. It’s recommended to sit on the right side by the window for better scenery concentration. ▪️ Accommodation: If you want to get up early for activities or sunrise, it’s best to stay in the town center for convenience. ▪️ Sun Protection: The high-altitude UV rays are very strong.

Mountain weather is changeable, so bring warm jackets and rain gear. This trip to Grindelwald has brought new expectations for life. Life doesn’t always have to be grand and dramatic; sometimes, a quiet corner and a beautiful view can bring immense happiness.

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless.

For budget-conscious travelers in Singapore, finding a gem that balances cost with quality can be a challenge, but the Owen Hotel at Little India effortlessly hits that sweet spot. While its exterior presents as a big hotel, the true value lies within, where guests are consistently greeted with a surprising level of comfort, remarkable quietness, and impeccable cleanliness—a rare trifecta for affordable accommodations. The standout feature, however, is its unbeatable location, which I would confidently rate a perfect 5/5. The hotel’s proximity to Farrer Park MRT station is almost unparalleled, as a leisurely walk of less than two minutes places you directly at the train entrance, making the entire city effortlessly accessible. This seamless connectivity allows you to explore Singapore's vibrant attractions without the hassle of long commutes, ensuring you save both time and money. Whether you are a solo backpacker or a family looking to stretch your dollar, the Owen Hotel provides a serene sanctuary that proves you don't have to sacrifice quality for an affordable price in this bustling city.

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Vacationing at Qingcheng Mountain and Dujiangyan, I discovered a hidden gem hotel that takes New Chinese aesthetics to the extreme! Qingcheng Songpin truly fulfilled all my imaginations of a mountain forest getaway—private hot spring villas, Song-style courtyards, butler service, and after staying here, I didn’t want to leave. The location is absolutely perfect! It’s right in the core area of Dujiangyan Sunac Cultural Tourism City, only about 4 kilometers from the Dujiangyan Scenic Area, just a 10-minute drive. Qingcheng Mountain Scenic Area is only 16 kilometers away, about a 20-minute drive. After sightseeing, it’s super convenient to return to the hotel for a hot spring soak. Next door is Sunac Snow World and Sunac Mall—just a few minutes’ walk for skiing or shopping. The phrase “bustling outside, secluded inside” perfectly describes this place~ The moment you enter the hotel, you’re struck by the masterful New Chinese design! The overall style is a fusion of “Song Dynasty + Western Sichuan residences.” The standalone villas with white walls and dark tiles are nestled among lush forests and bamboo groves, with imposing dark gray tile sloped roofs. The lobby is stunning, featuring grand black Shen-style lacquered pillars, and a huge Dongyang wood carving of the “Panorama of Qingcheng Mountain” hanging on the wall. Even the registration area replicates the blue-green landscape style of the “A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains” painting, with every detail exuding Song Dynasty elegance. The courtyard has winding bridges and flowing water, bamboo paths leading to quiet spots, ubiquitous Shu brocade decorations, birdcage lamps, and every few steps you find a Song painting—every photo is a masterpiece. The hot spring villa we booked was absolutely amazing! A standalone courtyard with a private hot spring, surrounded by lush greenery for maximum privacy. The room features a large horizontal hall design with a spacious layout, natural wood furniture paired with Shu brocade decorations—elegant and luxurious without feeling cramped. My favorite is the private hot spring pool in the courtyard, kept at a constant temperature 24/7, with options for rose, osmanthus, or herbal packs. Soaking in the warm water while gazing at the green mountain forest outside the window, and looking up at the starry sky at night, all fatigue instantly melts away. The bedding is soft and cozy, soundproofing is excellent, and waking up to birdsong in the morning is so healing~ No worries about dining! The hotel has a dedicated Song Banquet Chinese restaurant serving authentic Sichuan cuisine, as well as Cantonese and Huaiyang dishes, all very authentic. Breakfast is a buffet with a wide variety, including handmade yogurt, pickled cabbage beef noodles, matsutake mushroom meat buns—all delicious, plus freshly ground soy milk. You’ll be full and ready to go out for the day. If you don’t want to go far, lunch and dinner at the hotel are great too, with fresh ingredients and flavors that suit the palate. You must try the travel photography service! The hotel partners with a Hanfu photo studio, so you don’t need to bring your own clothes—just pick from their selection. There are professional stylists for makeup and hair, and patient photographers who guide you on poses. The hotel’s gardens and courtyards serve as natural backdrops, creating photos full of atmosphere. They even give you a few photos as gifts—perfect for getting tons of likes on social media. The service is truly top-notch! Full butler service throughout your stay, with WeChat communication before arrival to discuss your needs. Upon arrival, there’s a dedicated porter to help with luggage, and shuttle cars are available in the villa area with super fast response. Families with kids get prepared children’s bathrobes, toothbrushes, and toys in advance. Pet-friendly rooms can be reserved. Any request sent via WeChat gets a quick response—thoughtful without being intrusive, making the stay incredibly relaxing~ Transportation is super convenient! Free parking and charging spots for electric vehicles are available for self-driving guests, so no parking worries. It’s only 5.3 kilometers to Yingbin Road Station and 3.5 kilometers to Dujiangyan Station, making high-speed rail access easy. It’s a 1.5-hour drive from downtown Chengdu, and the hotel can help arrange taxis and book scenic area tickets. Whether traveling solo or with family, it’s very hassle-free. Staying here is truly a joy! Spend the day exploring Dujiangyan and Qingcheng Mountain, ski and shop in the afternoon, soak in the private hot springs at night, take ancient-style photos, and enjoy food, drink, and entertainment all in one place. Perfect for couples, friends, or family trips—definitely staying here again next time~ 🏨 Chengdu Qingcheng Songpin Hotel [RoundNails] No. 6 Zhizhen Road, Dujiangyan

When visiting Huangguoshu Waterfall, are you still staying at the noisy entrance of the scenic area? This time, my bestie and I discovered the ultimate solution—the Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse! It’s located in a Bouyei ethnic village near the waterfall, facing the canyon directly. Some rooms even offer direct views of the waterfall, truly fulfilling the dream of "sleeping with the waterfall at your pillow." 🌊 A unique waterfall viewing perspective: We stayed in the "Cliff View Room," with a balcony facing the deep valley and distant mountains. Although you can’t see the main Huangguoshu Waterfall directly (it requires a certain angle), you can see other cascading waterfalls in the canyon and the rushing Baishui River. In the early morning, you’re awakened by birdsong and the faint sound of water in the valley. Opening the window, the moist, fresh air rushes in, surrounded by lush greenery. This feeling of being embraced by nature is more healing than any alarm clock. The guesthouse also has a huge viewing platform with unbeatable views, perfect for watching the sunrise and sea of clouds. 🏡 Comfortable living in the mountains and fields: The guesthouse features a simple modern design blended with local Bouyei architectural elements, such as stone exterior walls. The rooms are spacious and bright, equipped with floor heating, smart toilets, and premium bedding. The biggest surprise is the bathtub facing the mountain view, allowing you to enjoy the scenery while soaking. The public areas include a book bar, tea room, and swimming pool (open in summer), so you can relax all day without even stepping outside. 🥘 Authentic Guizhou flavors and rural delights: The meals are authentic Guizhou cuisine, with many ingredients sourced from the guesthouse’s own garden or local farmers. We enjoyed sour soup fish, stir-fried cured meat with houttuynia, and wild vegetable eggs, all very authentic. The rice noodles at breakfast were unforgettable. After meals, you can stroll through the vegetable garden and experience the joy of picking (seasonal). 🚶‍♀️ Recommended off-the-beaten-path routes: Waterfall group exploration: Have the guesthouse manager drop you off at the Huangguoshu Scenic Area entrance, then visit in the order of "Doupotang → Tianxing Bridge (lower section) → Main Waterfall" to avoid most tour groups. Bouyei village stroll: The village where the guesthouse is located is very original and natural. You can take a walk, chat with villagers, and see the ancient stone houses. Baling River Bridge: A short drive away is this super engineering marvel, where you can try bungee jumping, high-altitude swings, and other extreme sports, or simply admire its grandeur from below. Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse perfectly solves the conflict between "getting close to nature" and "comfortable accommodation." It allows you to conveniently visit a world-class attraction while returning to the tranquility of the mountains and fields. With my bestie here, hiking to see waterfalls by day and gathering around the fire at night, it was a perfect holiday full of energy and wild charm.

Kyoto travel is not just about Kiyomizu-dera, Fushimi Inari Taisha, and Kinkaku-ji... If you prefer quiet and off-the-beaten-path spots, you must visit Kibune Shrine hidden in the mountains. · 🚃 Transportation Take the subway from Kyoto Station to Demachiyanagi Station ➡️ transfer at Demachiyanagi Station to the Eizan Electric Railway (towards Kurama) and get off at Kibuneguchi Station (35 minutes, 470 yen) ➡️ take a bus from Kibuneguchi to Kibune Shrine (5 minutes, 200 yen). ⏰ The last bus from Kibune Shrine to Kibuneguchi is at 18:25 (extended to 19:00 in summer). If you miss it, you can walk down the mountain (about 20 minutes; walking up takes about 20-30 minutes). · 🍁 From mid to late November to early December is the season when the autumn leaves at Kibune Shrine are very beautiful. There are many hiking and walking trails nearby, with stunning foliage and many waterfalls along the mountain streams. The crowds are not too large, making it a must-see. · 📷 Photo Tips ✅ The vermilion lantern stone steps at the entrance are very photogenic. Before 9 AM, there are almost no visitors; the morning is relatively quiet, but the afternoon and evening see many tourists. ✅ After 6 PM in summer, there is a special illumination 💡 with blue twilight and warm red lanterns, creating a dreamy, anime-like atmosphere perfect for photos. ✅ Weather doesn’t affect photo opportunities much here; personally, I find rainy days more atmospheric, and snow would be even more magical. · ⭐️ Travel Tips 1️⃣ Kibune is in the remote mountain outskirts, about 1 to 1.5 hours from central Kyoto. 2️⃣ ⛩️ It’s small and can be explored in less than half an hour. 3️⃣ The water fortune-telling here is famous: for 100 yen, you get a blank fortune slip (queue required), then dip it in the sacred water and the text appears, which is quite fun. 4️⃣ The flowing water somen noodles are very popular here. If you have time, definitely try them. They are usually served by the water, making it a cool and pleasant summer escape.

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

No need to fly to Provence! In the mountains and fields of Huzhou, my bestie and I discovered a dreamlike Anadu Olive Estate. In winter, there’s no bleakness here—only the warm Mediterranean sunlight hues, hills covered with olive trees, and ultimate tranquility, as if instantly transported to a private estate in southern France. 🚗 Arrival: The Beginning of a Ceremony It’s about a 2-hour drive from Hangzhou or Shanghai. The estate is tucked away on the gentle slopes of the Moganshan Mountains, offering great privacy. Passing through the gate marked by iconic olive trees and winding up the private road, the full view of the estate gradually unfolds: the off-white main building, the deep blue infinity pool, and olive groves stretching across the hills—a scene so beautiful it feels unreal. 🛏️ Stay Embraced by Olive Trees We stayed in the “Yingtian” room, featuring a large terrace and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. The room design blends elegant Nordic and southern French styles, with wood and linen textures that bring comfort. The best part is the balcony facing layers of olive groves, where winter sunlight turns the leaves silvery gray, and a breeze stirs a shimmer of light—you could quietly watch this all afternoon. 🌳 Exclusive Experiences at the Olive Estate Olive Grove Walk: Guided by the estate’s butler, learn about different olive tree varieties and the process from fruit to oil. The air is filled with the fresh scent of plants. Olive Oil Tasting: The estate produces its own extra virgin olive oil. In a professional tasting class, we learned how to observe color, smell aroma, and savor flavors, experiencing the distinct taste differences of various olive oils on the palate—a very fun experience. Bonfire Under the Stars: The estate’s bonfire area faces the valley. At night, light a fire and warm yourself around it. The estate’s homemade olive wine has a unique flavor, paired with roasted oranges—this is the ultimate winter night delight. 🍽️ Farm-to-Table Feast Anadu’s dining is a highlight. Many ingredients come from the estate or local partner farms. Dinner is a chef’s customized menu, with exquisite dishes from appetizers to desserts, cleverly incorporating olive oil and olive elements, creating a layered taste experience. The semi-buffet breakfast also offers very authentic local flavors. 📷 Photography Inspiration Notes Olive Grove Portraits: Wear white or earth tones, walk into the olive grove, and use the tree trunks’ lines and light and shadow to capture high-end forest-style shots. Infinity Pool Distant View: Although winter isn’t for swimming, the pool as the foreground with distant mountains and estate buildings as the background makes for a grand composition. Room Terrace: Use the olive groves as a backdrop to shoot breakfast or afternoon tea scenes, full of vacation vibes and lifestyle aesthetics. 💌 Warm Tips Estate activities like tasting classes and cycling require advance booking. Outdoor temperatures are low in winter, but indoor floor heating is sufficient; bring clothes suitable for indoor and outdoor temperature differences. This place is extremely quiet and private, perfect for a duo of besties needing complete relaxation and escape from the hustle. At Anadu Olive Estate, time is measured by the olive tree rings and the sunshine on your plate. It offers a completely different vacation style filled with plant fragrances and earth energy. If you and your bestie love nature, food, and tranquility, this will be your secret garden. Remember to search its name on Trip.com to start this journey through time.

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

Friends, who understands! When you come to Singapore, don’t just rush to the crowded tourist spots! This time in the Lion City, I finally made up for the hidden gems I missed during my 2023 work trips. These three places are all loved by locals, with fewer people and beautiful scenery. You can easily explore one in just half a day without tiring your legs! ✅ Tuas Link Raffles Lighthouse Take the green line to the last stop! Highly recommend going at dusk! I arrived right at the 6:30 PM sunset. That day had very few clouds, and the orange-pink sunset paired with the seaside lighthouse was stunning. When the blue hour came, I couldn’t stop snapping photos on my phone! ⚠️ If you’re staying on the east side, make sure to leave early! The trip is quite far, so don’t rush and miss the sunset! ✅ East Coast Park If you want to experience local life, head straight here! Navigate to Marine Parade MRT Station (TE26)! Don’t just search for the park directly, or you might end up walking forever! Just cross the underpass and you’re at the seaside. Watching the sunrise in the morning or chasing the sunset in the evening is amazing. Many locals cycle and stroll here, enjoying the sea breeze for an hour, totally chill! ⚠️ Some sections were under construction when I visited, so don’t wander aimlessly! Returning the same way to the MRT station is the safest bet! ✅ Botanic Gardens Who doesn’t love a tropical rainforest in the city center! Try to arrive before 10 AM! It’s less crowded and cooler, filled with tropical greenery and the fresh scent of grass. There’s none of the noisy square dancing by older folks, just locals leisurely walking around. It’s so relaxing you won’t want to leave! ⚠️ Free entry! Free entry! Free entry! Important enough to say three times! Remember to wear sunscreen and mosquito repellent so you don’t get bitten! After visiting these places, I really feel emotional. The sights I missed in 2023, I finally caught up on in 2026. Sometimes, traveling doesn’t mean rushing through an itinerary. Taking it slow and exploring places locals love is the most comfortable way to travel~

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Regular cars need to park near Cha Ping Hotel, then hike about 2-5 kilometers up the mountain along the farm road to the left of the hotel. High-clearance SUVs or four-wheel-drive vehicles can try driving directly up the mountain, but the mountain road is narrow and passing is difficult, so drive cautiously. Tour and Photography Guide Start from the parking spot at Cha Ping Hotel and hike up the mountain along the farm road on the left. Along the way, you can enjoy sea of flowers and reservoir views. Recommended photo spots: Small hill on the left side of the reservoir: classic angle to capture the sea of flowers, reservoir, and distant mountains. Backlit path at the mountain top: soft lighting, perfect for portrait silhouettes. Photography tips: It is recommended to wear light-colored, flowing long dresses paired with accessories like straw hats. You can also bring a bubble machine. Accommodation Recommendations 🏨 Core accommodation: Quanzhou Tianhu Cha Ping Hotel (the only hotel inside the scenic area) Room rates (per night): vary greatly between low and peak seasons, reference price 275-515 RMB, please check specific dates yourself. Buffet breakfast: 28 RMB per person. Accommodation deposit: 200 RMB per room. Food Guide Vinegar Duck Blood (Quanzhou specialty) Guilin "Wangcheng Vinegar Duck Blood Old Shop" average cost per person: 40-53 RMB. Set meals offer better value. During peak dining hours (6-7:30 PM), waiting is common. Quanzhou Red Oil Rice Noodles: Local price: 5 RMB (one liang) to 5.5 RMB (two liang), adding a marinated egg costs about 1.5 RMB. Hehua Fish and other farmhouse dishes: Mountain hotel restaurant: prices are reasonable, portions are average. Snack supplies: There are no shops on the mountain, so be sure to buy drinking water and snacks in the county town in advance. One-day Highlights Tour: Depart from Quanzhou County in the morning → Arrive and hike around Cha Ping Reservoir in the morning → Afternoon for photography and relaxation → Return in the evening. Two-day In-depth Tour: Day 1: Arrive at Tianhu Resort Area, visit Cha Ping Reservoir, stay overnight in the mountain area for stargazing. Day 2: Early morning cloud sea sunrise viewing, visit other reservoirs or wind farm landscapes in Tianhu, return in the afternoon.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

This trip to Norway, Bergen left us with a deep impression‼️ This city on Norway’s west coast is surrounded by seven mountains and fjords, known as the gateway to the Norwegian fjords. The old town is colorful, with vibrant wooden houses lining the waterfront at the harbor. All of this makes this rainy city full of poetry and tranquility✨ ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍Bergen The ancient city center of Bergen is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here you can find old streets, medieval houses, and cobblestone roads. You can admire medieval architecture and historical traces, feeling the charm of this ancient city. The old market square is one of the must-see spots and also the port for Royal Caribbean cruises. 📍Bergen Fish Market The Bergen Fish Market is one of Norway’s most famous fish markets. Here you can taste fresh seafood and delicious fish soup. The colorful wooden houses by the water in the market are very beautiful. This is one of Bergen’s most distinctive attractions and worth a visit. 📍Bryggen Museum The Bryggen Museum complex is one of Bergen’s most famous attractions, including 18 museums and galleries. It houses many precious historical artifacts and artworks. Here you can deeply learn about Norway’s history and culture. There are medieval churches, museums, and galleries, making it an excellent place to understand Norwegian history and culture. 📍Mount Fløyen Mount Fløyen is one of Bergen’s highest peaks and one of the best spots to overlook the entire city. Here you can enjoy magnificent fjord views and panoramic cityscapes. You can also take a cable car to the summit to admire the stunning scenery. It’s also a paradise for hiking enthusiasts, with many trails to choose from. 📍Bergen Cathedral A landmark building in Norway’s second-largest city, Bergen, this Gothic cathedral has been rebuilt multiple times after fires. Its green roof and white walls stand out prominently in the city. Built in the 12th century, this Gothic cathedral is an important symbol of Bergen’s history and religious culture. 🍽️【Restaurant Recommendations】 🔸Bryggeloftet & Stuene: 🌟 4.5 Bergen’s oldest restaurant with an elegant dining atmosphere, serving authentic Bergen cuisine. 🔸Egon Kjottbasaren: 🌟 4.1 A chain restaurant offering great value with pasta, pizza, and burgers. Highly recommend the cod fillet and delicious Norwegian fish soup! 🔸Fjåk Chocolate Shop & Café: 🌟 4.8 A chocolate shop in the city center. Having a warm cup of hot chocolate here in winter is pure happiness~ ⛅️【Weather & Clothing】 🔹Raincoat is a must: Bergen rains over 200 days a year, so its nickname “Rain City” is well deserved. Regardless of the weather forecast, always bring a raincoat or umbrella. A waterproof jacket is very practical here. 🔹Keep warm: Even in summer, the wind on the mountain tops and by the sea is strong with noticeable temperature differences. It’s recommended to dress in layers for easy adjustment. If you take a fjord cruise, remember to bring a hat, scarf, and gloves as it can get very cold. 💡【Accommodation & Transportation】 ▪️Accommodation choice: It’s recommended to stay near the harbor, such as next to Bryggen Wharf, making it very convenient to reach the old town, fish market, and cable car station by foot. ▪️Transportation: Most city attractions are within walking distance since the city center is smaller than expected. For longer trips, you can use Google Maps or the Vy App (covering Bergen and Oslo areas) for navigation and ticket purchase. A Nordic secret more magical than a fairy tale 🇳🇴 Bergen — The colorful kingdom painted by Hayao Miyazaki Bergen is not only the gateway to the Norwegian fjords But also a key center of Norwegian culture and history🏕️

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

In Grindelwald, I truly experienced what it means to be stunningly beautiful 🌿 There is no city noise or hustle here, only tranquility and beauty~ It feels as if everything has been paused, enjoying this rare leisurely time ✨ 🌿 A little secret first “If there were a sequel to ‘Heidi and Grandpa,’ the filming location would definitely still be here.” The moment the train emerges from the tunnel—the snowy mountains unfold like a curtain, the grassy slopes layer upon layer, wooden houses scattered like chocolate chips, and even the cowbells sound like a 3D surround healing soundtrack. 🕰️ How does time pass here? 🔹 06:30 Morning mist dyes the pine needles silver, the first ray of sunlight falls on the north face of the Eiger, and the hillside instantly turns into golden terraces. 🔹 11:00 Cloud shadows slowly crawl over the green carpet, cows lower their heads to graze, swishing their tails, and time sways along. 🔹 19:30 The sunset paints the wooden window frames rose-colored, smoke drifts from chimneys with the scent of firewood—like the smell of grandma’s house from childhood memories. 🔹 22:00 Lights go out one by one, the Milky Way rises behind the snowy mountains, the hillside turns into piano keys, and the stars are dancing notes. ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍 Dreamy Hillside (Grindelwald Grund) This is Grindelwald’s most iconic landscape, with traditional wooden houses and grazing cattle and sheep on the green meadows nearby, and the magnificent snowy views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks in the distance, as if stepping into a fairy tale world. 📍 Jungfrau Take the cogwheel train from Grindelwald to the summit (ticket price 162 CHF/second class), transfer at Kleine Scheidegg, and reach Europe’s highest train station (3454 meters)! The Ice Palace at the top and the Sphinx Observatory overlook the Aletsch Glacier, leaving you speechless with awe. 📍 First Mountain Take the cable car directly to First Mountain, an excellent way to experience the Alpine scenery. 📍 Viewing Platform The viewing platform at the top of First offers a wide view, allowing close-up sights of the north face of the Eiger and the Schreckhorn. 📍 Cliff Walk From the cable car station, the First Cliff Walk takes about 20 minutes to complete. The viewing platform at the end extends into the air, offering breathtaking views. 📍 Mountain Karting Drive a kart from Schreckfeld station down to Bort station. It’s thrilling and fun, but queues can be long during peak season, so allow plenty of time. 🖼️【Recommended Hiking Routes】 🟡 Bort Downhill Hike: Walk from Bort cable car station down to Grindelwald town, about 4-5 km one way, moderate difficulty. Along the way, enjoy open grassy slopes, woods, and wooden houses—a great choice to experience the town’s pastoral charm. 🟡 Town to Bort Cable Car Station: This route is about 5 km one way with a total ascent of 450 meters, offering panoramic views of the valley. The autumn colors are especially stunning. 🏡【Accommodation Recommendations】 1️⃣ Best Value: Jugendherberge Grindelwald (Youth Hostel): Around ¥300 per person, balcony facing the Eiger! 2️⃣ Scenic Highlight: Derby Swiss Quality Hotel: Next to the train station, three-star, rooms with windows opening to the “Dreamy Hillside,” includes sauna + 3 restaurants. 3️⃣ Light Luxury Experience: Romantik Hotel Schweizerhof: Five-star wooden chalet hotel, cheese fondue with snowy mountain sunset, full of atmosphere! 💡【Practical Tips】 ▪️ Transportation: Take the train from Interlaken East Station about 30 minutes directly to Grindelwald. It’s recommended to sit on the right side by the window for better scenery concentration. ▪️ Accommodation: If you want to get up early for activities or sunrise, it’s best to stay in the town center for convenience. ▪️ Sun Protection: The high-altitude UV rays are very strong. Even on cloudy days or indoors, use SPF50+ sunscreen and reapply regularly. ▪️ Tickets: It’s recommended to book tickets for the First cable car and some activities (like karting) in advance on the official website, especially during peak season. ▪️ Gear: Comfortable, non-slip shoes are a must. Mountain weather is changeable, so bring warm jackets and rain gear. This trip to Grindelwald has brought new expectations for life. Life doesn’t always have to be grand and dramatic; sometimes, a quiet corner and a beautiful view can bring immense happiness. Just like the small houses and forests in Grindelwald, simple yet full of warmth and healing. 💖

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money. I’d recommend it to both leisure and business travelers, especially those who value transit convenience and comfort. Staying in this area means you can get anywhere within 15 minutes!

For budget-conscious travelers in Singapore, finding a gem that balances cost with quality can be a challenge, but the Owen Hotel at Little India effortlessly hits that sweet spot. While its exterior presents as a big hotel, the true value lies within, where guests are consistently greeted with a surprising level of comfort, remarkable quietness, and impeccable cleanliness—a rare trifecta for affordable accommodations. The standout feature, however, is its unbeatable location, which I would confidently rate a perfect 5/5. The hotel’s proximity to Farrer Park MRT station is almost unparalleled, as a leisurely walk of less than two minutes places you directly at the train entrance, making the entire city effortlessly accessible. This seamless connectivity allows you to explore Singapore's vibrant attractions without the hassle of long commutes, ensuring you save both time and money. Whether you are a solo backpacker or a family looking to stretch your dollar, the Owen Hotel provides a serene sanctuary that proves you don't have to sacrifice quality for an affordable price in this bustling city.

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Vacationing at Qingcheng Mountain and Dujiangyan, I discovered a hidden gem hotel that takes New Chinese aesthetics to the extreme! Qingcheng Songpin truly fulfilled all my imaginations of a mountain forest getaway—private hot spring villas, Song-style courtyards, butler service, and after staying here, I didn’t want to leave. The location is absolutely perfect! It’s right in the core area of Dujiangyan Sunac Cultural Tourism City, only about 4 kilometers from the Dujiangyan Scenic Area, just a 10-minute drive. Qingcheng Mountain Scenic Area is only 16 kilometers away, about a 20-minute drive. After sightseeing, it’s super convenient to return to the hotel for a hot spring soak. Next door is Sunac Snow World and Sunac Mall—just a few minutes’ walk for skiing or shopping. The phrase “bustling outside, secluded inside” perfectly describes this place~ The moment you enter the hotel, you’re struck by the masterful New Chinese design! The overall style is a fusion of “Song Dynasty + Western Sichuan residences.” The standalone villas with white walls and dark tiles are nestled among lush forests and bamboo groves, with imposing dark gray tile sloped roofs. The lobby is stunning, featuring grand black Shen-style lacquered pillars, and a huge Dongyang wood carving of the “Panorama of Qingcheng Mountain” hanging on the wall. Even the registration area replicates the blue-green landscape style of the “A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains” painting, with every detail exuding Song Dynasty elegance. The courtyard has winding bridges and flowing water, bamboo paths leading to quiet spots, ubiquitous Shu brocade decorations, birdcage lamps, and every few steps you find a Song painting—every photo is a masterpiece. The hot spring villa we booked was absolutely amazing! A standalone courtyard with a private hot spring, surrounded by lush greenery for maximum privacy. The room features a large horizontal hall design with a spacious layout, natural wood furniture paired with Shu brocade decorations—elegant and luxurious without feeling cramped. My favorite is the private hot spring pool in the courtyard, kept at a constant temperature 24/7, with options for rose, osmanthus, or herbal packs. Soaking in the warm water while gazing at the green mountain forest outside the window, and looking up at the starry sky at night, all fatigue instantly melts away. The bedding is soft and cozy, soundproofing is excellent, and waking up to birdsong in the morning is so healing~ No worries about dining! The hotel has a dedicated Song Banquet Chinese restaurant serving authentic Sichuan cuisine, as well as Cantonese and Huaiyang dishes, all very authentic. Breakfast is a buffet with a wide variety, including handmade yogurt, pickled cabbage beef noodles, matsutake mushroom meat buns—all delicious, plus freshly ground soy milk. You’ll be full and ready to go out for the day. If you don’t want to go far, lunch and dinner at the hotel are great too, with fresh ingredients and flavors that suit the palate. You must try the travel photography service! The hotel partners with a Hanfu photo studio, so you don’t need to bring your own clothes—just pick from their selection. There are professional stylists for makeup and hair, and patient photographers who guide you on poses. The hotel’s gardens and courtyards serve as natural backdrops, creating photos full of atmosphere. They even give you a few photos as gifts—perfect for getting tons of likes on social media. The service is truly top-notch! Full butler service throughout your stay, with WeChat communication before arrival to discuss your needs. Upon arrival, there’s a dedicated porter to help with luggage, and shuttle cars are available in the villa area with super fast response. Families with kids get prepared children’s bathrobes, toothbrushes, and toys in advance. Pet-friendly rooms can be reserved. Any request sent via WeChat gets a quick response—thoughtful without being intrusive, making the stay incredibly relaxing~ Transportation is super convenient! Free parking and charging spots for electric vehicles are available for self-driving guests, so no parking worries. It’s only 5.3 kilometers to Yingbin Road Station and 3.5 kilometers to Dujiangyan Station, making high-speed rail access easy. It’s a 1.5-hour drive from downtown Chengdu, and the hotel can help arrange taxis and book scenic area tickets. Whether traveling solo or with family, it’s very hassle-free. Staying here is truly a joy! Spend the day exploring Dujiangyan and Qingcheng Mountain, ski and shop in the afternoon, soak in the private hot springs at night, take ancient-style photos, and enjoy food, drink, and entertainment all in one place. Perfect for couples, friends, or family trips—definitely staying here again next time~ 🏨 Chengdu Qingcheng Songpin Hotel [RoundNails] No. 6 Zhizhen Road, Dujiangyan

When visiting Huangguoshu Waterfall, are you still staying at the noisy entrance of the scenic area? This time, my bestie and I discovered the ultimate solution—the Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse! It’s located in a Bouyei ethnic village near the waterfall, facing the canyon directly. Some rooms even offer direct views of the waterfall, truly fulfilling the dream of "sleeping with the waterfall at your pillow." 🌊 A unique waterfall viewing perspective: We stayed in the "Cliff View Room," with a balcony facing the deep valley and distant mountains. Although you can’t see the main Huangguoshu Waterfall directly (it requires a certain angle), you can see other cascading waterfalls in the canyon and the rushing Baishui River. In the early morning, you’re awakened by birdsong and the faint sound of water in the valley. Opening the window, the moist, fresh air rushes in, surrounded by lush greenery. This feeling of being embraced by nature is more healing than any alarm clock. The guesthouse also has a huge viewing platform with unbeatable views, perfect for watching the sunrise and sea of clouds. 🏡 Comfortable living in the mountains and fields: The guesthouse features a simple modern design blended with local Bouyei architectural elements, such as stone exterior walls. The rooms are spacious and bright, equipped with floor heating, smart toilets, and premium bedding. The biggest surprise is the bathtub facing the mountain view, allowing you to enjoy the scenery while soaking. The public areas include a book bar, tea room, and swimming pool (open in summer), so you can relax all day without even stepping outside. 🥘 Authentic Guizhou flavors and rural delights: The meals are authentic Guizhou cuisine, with many ingredients sourced from the guesthouse’s own garden or local farmers. We enjoyed sour soup fish, stir-fried cured meat with houttuynia, and wild vegetable eggs, all very authentic. The rice noodles at breakfast were unforgettable. After meals, you can stroll through the vegetable garden and experience the joy of picking (seasonal). 🚶‍♀️ Recommended off-the-beaten-path routes: Waterfall group exploration: Have the guesthouse manager drop you off at the Huangguoshu Scenic Area entrance, then visit in the order of "Doupotang → Tianxing Bridge (lower section) → Main Waterfall" to avoid most tour groups. Bouyei village stroll: The village where the guesthouse is located is very original and natural. You can take a walk, chat with villagers, and see the ancient stone houses. Baling River Bridge: A short drive away is this super engineering marvel, where you can try bungee jumping, high-altitude swings, and other extreme sports, or simply admire its grandeur from below. Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse perfectly solves the conflict between "getting close to nature" and "comfortable accommodation." It allows you to conveniently visit a world-class attraction while returning to the tranquility of the mountains and fields. With my bestie here, hiking to see waterfalls by day and gathering around the fire at night, it was a perfect holiday full of energy and wild charm.

Kyoto travel is not just about Kiyomizu-dera, Fushimi Inari Taisha, and Kinkaku-ji... If you prefer quiet and off-the-beaten-path spots, you must visit Kibune Shrine hidden in the mountains. · 🚃 Transportation Take the subway from Kyoto Station to Demachiyanagi Station ➡️ transfer at Demachiyanagi Station to the Eizan Electric Railway (towards Kurama) and get off at Kibuneguchi Station (35 minutes, 470 yen) ➡️ take a bus from Kibuneguchi to Kibune Shrine (5 minutes, 200 yen). ⏰ The last bus from Kibune Shrine to Kibuneguchi is at 18:25 (extended to 19:00 in summer). If you miss it, you can walk down the mountain (about 20 minutes; walking up takes about 20-30 minutes). · 🍁 From mid to late November to early December is the season when the autumn leaves at Kibune Shrine are very beautiful. There are many hiking and walking trails nearby, with stunning foliage and many waterfalls along the mountain streams. The crowds are not too large, making it a must-see. · 📷 Photo Tips ✅ The vermilion lantern stone steps at the entrance are very photogenic. Before 9 AM, there are almost no visitors; the morning is relatively quiet, but the afternoon and evening see many tourists. ✅ After 6 PM in summer, there is a special illumination 💡 with blue twilight and warm red lanterns, creating a dreamy, anime-like atmosphere perfect for photos. ✅ Weather doesn’t affect photo opportunities much here; personally, I find rainy days more atmospheric, and snow would be even more magical. · ⭐️ Travel Tips 1️⃣ Kibune is in the remote mountain outskirts, about 1 to 1.5 hours from central Kyoto. 2️⃣ ⛩️ It’s small and can be explored in less than half an hour. 3️⃣ The water fortune-telling here is famous: for 100 yen, you get a blank fortune slip (queue required), then dip it in the sacred water and the text appears, which is quite fun. 4️⃣ The flowing water somen noodles are very popular here. If you have time, definitely try them. They are usually served by the water, making it a cool and pleasant summer escape.

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

No need to fly to Provence! In the mountains and fields of Huzhou, my bestie and I discovered a dreamlike Anadu Olive Estate. In winter, there’s no bleakness here—only the warm Mediterranean sunlight hues, hills covered with olive trees, and ultimate tranquility, as if instantly transported to a private estate in southern France. 🚗 Arrival: The Beginning of a Ceremony It’s about a 2-hour drive from Hangzhou or Shanghai. The estate is tucked away on the gentle slopes of the Moganshan Mountains, offering great privacy. Passing through the gate marked by iconic olive trees and winding up the private road, the full view of the estate gradually unfolds: the off-white main building, the deep blue infinity pool, and olive groves stretching across the hills—a scene so beautiful it feels unreal. 🛏️ Stay Embraced by Olive Trees We stayed in the “Yingtian” room, featuring a large terrace and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. The room design blends elegant Nordic and southern French styles, with wood and linen textures that bring comfort. The best part is the balcony facing layers of olive groves, where winter sunlight turns the leaves silvery gray, and a breeze stirs a shimmer of light—you could quietly watch this all afternoon. 🌳 Exclusive Experiences at the Olive Estate Olive Grove Walk: Guided by the estate’s butler, learn about different olive tree varieties and the process from fruit to oil. The air is filled with the fresh scent of plants. Olive Oil Tasting: The estate produces its own extra virgin olive oil. In a professional tasting class, we learned how to observe color, smell aroma, and savor flavors, experiencing the distinct taste differences of various olive oils on the palate—a very fun experience. Bonfire Under the Stars: The estate’s bonfire area faces the valley. At night, light a fire and warm yourself around it. The estate’s homemade olive wine has a unique flavor, paired with roasted oranges—this is the ultimate winter night delight. 🍽️ Farm-to-Table Feast Anadu’s dining is a highlight. Many ingredients come from the estate or local partner farms. Dinner is a chef’s customized menu, with exquisite dishes from appetizers to desserts, cleverly incorporating olive oil and olive elements, creating a layered taste experience. The semi-buffet breakfast also offers very authentic local flavors. 📷 Photography Inspiration Notes Olive Grove Portraits: Wear white or earth tones, walk into the olive grove, and use the tree trunks’ lines and light and shadow to capture high-end forest-style shots. Infinity Pool Distant View: Although winter isn’t for swimming, the pool as the foreground with distant mountains and estate buildings as the background makes for a grand composition. Room Terrace: Use the olive groves as a backdrop to shoot breakfast or afternoon tea scenes, full of vacation vibes and lifestyle aesthetics. 💌 Warm Tips Estate activities like tasting classes and cycling require advance booking. Outdoor temperatures are low in winter, but indoor floor heating is sufficient; bring clothes suitable for indoor and outdoor temperature differences. This place is extremely quiet and private, perfect for a duo of besties needing complete relaxation and escape from the hustle. At Anadu Olive Estate, time is measured by the olive tree rings and the sunshine on your plate. It offers a completely different vacation style filled with plant fragrances and earth energy. If you and your bestie love nature, food, and tranquility, this will be your secret garden. Remember to search its name on Trip.com to start this journey through time.

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

Friends, who understands! When you come to Singapore, don’t just rush to the crowded tourist spots! This time in the Lion City, I finally made up for the hidden gems I missed during my 2023 work trips. These three places are all loved by locals, with fewer people and beautiful scenery. You can easily explore one in just half a day without tiring your legs! ✅ Tuas Link Raffles Lighthouse Take the green line to the last stop! Highly recommend going at dusk! I arrived right at the 6:30 PM sunset. That day had very few clouds, and the orange-pink sunset paired with the seaside lighthouse was stunning. When the blue hour came, I couldn’t stop snapping photos on my phone! ⚠️ If you’re staying on the east side, make sure to leave early! The trip is quite far, so don’t rush and miss the sunset! ✅ East Coast Park If you want to experience local life, head straight here! Navigate to Marine Parade MRT Station (TE26)! Don’t just search for the park directly, or you might end up walking forever! Just cross the underpass and you’re at the seaside. Watching the sunrise in the morning or chasing the sunset in the evening is amazing. Many locals cycle and stroll here, enjoying the sea breeze for an hour, totally chill! ⚠️ Some sections were under construction when I visited, so don’t wander aimlessly! Returning the same way to the MRT station is the safest bet! ✅ Botanic Gardens Who doesn’t love a tropical rainforest in the city center! Try to arrive before 10 AM! It’s less crowded and cooler, filled with tropical greenery and the fresh scent of grass. There’s none of the noisy square dancing by older folks, just locals leisurely walking around. It’s so relaxing you won’t want to leave! ⚠️ Free entry! Free entry! Free entry! Important enough to say three times! Remember to wear sunscreen and mosquito repellent so you don’t get bitten! After visiting these places, I really feel emotional. The sights I missed in 2023, I finally caught up on in 2026. Sometimes, traveling doesn’t mean rushing through an itinerary. Taking it slow and exploring places locals love is the most comfortable way to travel~

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Regular cars need to park near Cha Ping Hotel, then hike about 2-5 kilometers up the mountain along the farm road to the left of the hotel. High-clearance SUVs or four-wheel-drive vehicles can try driving directly up the mountain, but the mountain road is narrow and passing is difficult, so drive cautiously. Tour and Photography Guide Start from the parking spot at Cha Ping Hotel and hike up the mountain along the farm road on the left. Along the way, you can enjoy sea of flowers and reservoir views. Recommended photo spots: Small hill on the left side of the reservoir: classic angle to capture the sea of flowers, reservoir, and distant mountains. Backlit path at the mountain top: soft lighting, perfect for portrait silhouettes. Photography tips: It is recommended to wear light-colored, flowing long dresses paired with accessories like straw hats. You can also bring a bubble machine. Accommodation Recommendations 🏨 Core accommodation: Quanzhou Tianhu Cha Ping Hotel (the only hotel inside the scenic area) Room rates (per night): vary greatly between low and peak seasons, reference price 275-515 RMB, please check specific dates yourself. Buffet breakfast: 28 RMB per person. Accommodation deposit: 200 RMB per room. Food Guide Vinegar Duck Blood (Quanzhou specialty) Guilin "Wangcheng Vinegar Duck Blood Old Shop" average cost per person: 40-53 RMB. Set meals offer better value. During peak dining hours (6-7:30 PM), waiting is common. Quanzhou Red Oil Rice Noodles: Local price: 5 RMB (one liang) to 5.5 RMB (two liang), adding a marinated egg costs about 1.5 RMB. Hehua Fish and other farmhouse dishes: Mountain hotel restaurant: prices are reasonable, portions are average. Snack supplies: There are no shops on the mountain, so be sure to buy drinking water and snacks in the county town in advance. One-day Highlights Tour: Depart from Quanzhou County in the morning → Arrive and hike around Cha Ping Reservoir in the morning → Afternoon for photography and relaxation → Return in the evening. Two-day In-depth Tour: Day 1: Arrive at Tianhu Resort Area, visit Cha Ping Reservoir, stay overnight in the mountain area for stargazing. Day 2: Early morning cloud sea sunrise viewing, visit other reservoirs or wind farm landscapes in Tianhu, return in the afternoon.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

This trip to Norway, Bergen left us with a deep impression‼️ This city on Norway’s west coast is surrounded by seven mountains and fjords, known as the gateway to the Norwegian fjords. The old town is colorful, with vibrant wooden houses lining the waterfront at the harbor. All of this makes this rainy city full of poetry and tranquility✨ ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍Bergen The ancient city center of Bergen is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here you can find old streets, medieval houses, and cobblestone roads. You can admire medieval architecture and historical traces, feeling the charm of this ancient city. The old market square is one of the must-see spots and also the port for Royal Caribbean cruises. 📍Bergen Fish Market The Bergen Fish Market is one of Norway’s most famous fish markets. Here you can taste fresh seafood and delicious fish soup. The colorful wooden houses by the water in the market are very beautiful. This is one of Bergen’s most distinctive attractions and worth a visit. 📍Bryggen Museum The Bryggen Museum complex is one of Bergen’s most famous attractions, including 18 museums and galleries. It houses many precious historical artifacts and artworks. Here you can deeply learn about Norway’s history and culture. There are medieval churches, museums, and galleries, making it an excellent place to understand Norwegian history and culture. 📍Mount Fløyen Mount Fløyen is one of Bergen’s highest peaks and one of the best spots to overlook the entire city. Here you can enjoy magnificent fjord views and panoramic cityscapes. You can also take a cable car to the summit to admire the stunning scenery. It’s also a paradise for hiking enthusiasts, with many trails to choose from. 📍Bergen Cathedral A landmark building in Norway’s second-largest city, Bergen, this Gothic cathedral has been rebuilt multiple times after fires. Its green roof and white walls stand out prominently in the city. Built in the 12th century, this Gothic cathedral is an important symbol of Bergen’s history and religious culture. 🍽️【Restaurant Recommendations】 🔸Bryggeloftet & Stuene: 🌟 4.5 Bergen’s oldest restaurant with an elegant dining atmosphere, serving authentic Bergen cuisine. 🔸Egon Kjottbasaren: 🌟 4.1 A chain restaurant offering great value with pasta, pizza, and burgers.

Having a warm cup of hot chocolate here in winter is pure happiness~ ⛅️【Weather & Clothing】 🔹Raincoat is a must: Bergen rains over 200 days a year, so its nickname “Rain City” is well deserved. Regardless of the weather forecast, always bring a raincoat or umbrella. A waterproof jacket is very practical here. 🔹Keep warm: Even in summer, the wind on the mountain tops and by the sea is strong with noticeable temperature differences. It’s recommended to dress in layers for easy adjustment. If you take a fjord cruise, remember to bring a hat, scarf, and gloves as it can get very cold. 💡【Accommodation & Transportation】 ▪️Accommodation choice: It’s recommended to stay near the harbor, such as next to Bryggen Wharf, making it very convenient to reach the old town, fish market, and cable car station by foot. ▪️Transportation: Most city attractions are within walking distance since the city center is smaller than expected.

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

In Grindelwald, I truly experienced what it means to be stunningly beautiful 🌿 There is no city noise or hustle here, only tranquility and beauty~ It feels as if everything has been paused, enjoying this rare leisurely time ✨ 🌿 A little secret first “If there were a sequel to ‘Heidi and Grandpa,’ the filming location would definitely still be here.” The moment the train emerges from the tunnel—the snowy mountains unfold like a curtain, the grassy slopes layer upon layer, wooden houses scattered like chocolate chips, and even the cowbells sound like a 3D surround healing soundtrack. 🕰️ How does time pass here? 🔹 06:30 Morning mist dyes the pine needles silver, the first ray of sunlight falls on the north face of the Eiger, and the hillside instantly turns into golden terraces. 🔹 11:00 Cloud shadows slowly crawl over the green carpet, cows lower their heads to graze, swishing their tails, and time sways along. 🔹 19:30 The sunset paints the wooden window frames rose-colored, smoke drifts from chimneys with the scent of firewood—like the smell of grandma’s house from childhood memories. 🔹 22:00 Lights go out one by one, the Milky Way rises behind the snowy mountains, the hillside turns into piano keys, and the stars are dancing notes. ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍 Dreamy Hillside (Grindelwald Grund) This is Grindelwald’s most iconic landscape, with traditional wooden houses and grazing cattle and sheep on the green meadows nearby, and the magnificent snowy views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks in the distance, as if stepping into a fairy tale world. 📍 Jungfrau Take the cogwheel train from Grindelwald to the summit (ticket price 162 CHF/second class), transfer at Kleine Scheidegg, and reach Europe’s highest train station (3454 meters)! The Ice Palace at the top and the Sphinx Observatory overlook the Aletsch Glacier, leaving you speechless with awe. 📍 First Mountain Take the cable car directly to First Mountain, an excellent way to experience the Alpine scenery. 📍 Viewing Platform The viewing platform at the top of First offers a wide view, allowing close-up sights of the north face of the Eiger and the Schreckhorn. 📍 Cliff Walk From the cable car station, the First Cliff Walk takes about 20 minutes to complete. The viewing platform at the end extends into the air, offering breathtaking views. 📍 Mountain Karting Drive a kart from Schreckfeld station down to Bort station. It’s thrilling and fun, but queues can be long during peak season, so allow plenty of time. 🖼️【Recommended Hiking Routes】 🟡 Bort Downhill Hike: Walk from Bort cable car station down to Grindelwald town, about 4-5 km one way, moderate difficulty. Along the way, enjoy open grassy slopes, woods, and wooden houses—a great choice to experience the town’s pastoral charm. 🟡 Town to Bort Cable Car Station: This route is about 5 km one way with a total ascent of 450 meters, offering panoramic views of the valley. The autumn colors are especially stunning. 🏡【Accommodation Recommendations】 1️⃣ Best Value: Jugendherberge Grindelwald (Youth Hostel): Around ¥300 per person, balcony facing the Eiger! 2️⃣ Scenic Highlight: Derby Swiss Quality Hotel: Next to the train station, three-star, rooms with windows opening to the “Dreamy Hillside,” includes sauna + 3 restaurants. 3️⃣ Light Luxury Experience: Romantik Hotel Schweizerhof: Five-star wooden chalet hotel, cheese fondue with snowy mountain sunset, full of atmosphere! 💡【Practical Tips】 ▪️ Transportation: Take the train from Interlaken East Station about 30 minutes directly to Grindelwald. It’s recommended to sit on the right side by the window for better scenery concentration. ▪️ Accommodation: If you want to get up early for activities or sunrise, it’s best to stay in the town center for convenience. ▪️ Sun Protection: The high-altitude UV rays are very strong. Even on cloudy days or indoors, use SPF50+ sunscreen and reapply regularly. ▪️ Tickets: It’s recommended to book tickets for the First cable car and some activities (like karting) in advance on the official website, especially during peak season. ▪️ Gear: Comfortable, non-slip shoes are a must. Mountain weather is changeable, so bring warm jackets and rain gear. This trip to Grindelwald has brought new expectations for life. Life doesn’t always have to be grand and dramatic; sometimes, a quiet corner and a beautiful view can bring immense happiness. Just like the small houses and forests in Grindelwald, simple yet full of warmth and healing. 💖

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money. I’d recommend it to both leisure and business travelers, especially those who value transit convenience and comfort. Staying in this area means you can get anywhere within 15 minutes!

For budget-conscious travelers in Singapore, finding a gem that balances cost with quality can be a challenge, but the Owen Hotel at Little India effortlessly hits that sweet spot. While its exterior presents as a big hotel, the true value lies within, where guests are consistently greeted with a surprising level of comfort, remarkable quietness, and impeccable cleanliness—a rare trifecta for affordable accommodations. The standout feature, however, is its unbeatable location, which I would confidently rate a perfect 5/5. The hotel’s proximity to Farrer Park MRT station is almost unparalleled, as a leisurely walk of less than two minutes places you directly at the train entrance, making the entire city effortlessly accessible. This seamless connectivity allows you to explore Singapore's vibrant attractions without the hassle of long commutes, ensuring you save both time and money. Whether you are a solo backpacker or a family looking to stretch your dollar, the Owen Hotel provides a serene sanctuary that proves you don't have to sacrifice quality for an affordable price in this bustling city.

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Vacationing at Qingcheng Mountain and Dujiangyan, I discovered a hidden gem hotel that takes New Chinese aesthetics to the extreme! Qingcheng Songpin truly fulfilled all my imaginations of a mountain forest getaway—private hot spring villas, Song-style courtyards, butler service, and after staying here, I didn’t want to leave. The location is absolutely perfect! It’s right in the core area of Dujiangyan Sunac Cultural Tourism City, only about 4 kilometers from the Dujiangyan Scenic Area, just a 10-minute drive. Qingcheng Mountain Scenic Area is only 16 kilometers away, about a 20-minute drive. After sightseeing, it’s super convenient to return to the hotel for a hot spring soak. Next door is Sunac Snow World and Sunac Mall—just a few minutes’ walk for skiing or shopping. The phrase “bustling outside, secluded inside” perfectly describes this place~ The moment you enter the hotel, you’re struck by the masterful New Chinese design! The overall style is a fusion of “Song Dynasty + Western Sichuan residences.” The standalone villas with white walls and dark tiles are nestled among lush forests and bamboo groves, with imposing dark gray tile sloped roofs. The lobby is stunning, featuring grand black Shen-style lacquered pillars, and a huge Dongyang wood carving of the “Panorama of Qingcheng Mountain” hanging on the wall. Even the registration area replicates the blue-green landscape style of the “A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains” painting, with every detail exuding Song Dynasty elegance. The courtyard has winding bridges and flowing water, bamboo paths leading to quiet spots, ubiquitous Shu brocade decorations, birdcage lamps, and every few steps you find a Song painting—every photo is a masterpiece. The hot spring villa we booked was absolutely amazing! A standalone courtyard with a private hot spring, surrounded by lush greenery for maximum privacy. The room features a large horizontal hall design with a spacious layout, natural wood furniture paired with Shu brocade decorations—elegant and luxurious without feeling cramped. My favorite is the private hot spring pool in the courtyard, kept at a constant temperature 24/7, with options for rose, osmanthus, or herbal packs. Soaking in the warm water while gazing at the green mountain forest outside the window, and looking up at the starry sky at night, all fatigue instantly melts away. The bedding is soft and cozy, soundproofing is excellent, and waking up to birdsong in the morning is so healing~ No worries about dining! The hotel has a dedicated Song Banquet Chinese restaurant serving authentic Sichuan cuisine, as well as Cantonese and Huaiyang dishes, all very authentic. Breakfast is a buffet with a wide variety, including handmade yogurt, pickled cabbage beef noodles, matsutake mushroom meat buns—all delicious, plus freshly ground soy milk. You’ll be full and ready to go out for the day. If you don’t want to go far, lunch and dinner at the hotel are great too, with fresh ingredients and flavors that suit the palate. You must try the travel photography service! The hotel partners with a Hanfu photo studio, so you don’t need to bring your own clothes—just pick from their selection. There are professional stylists for makeup and hair, and patient photographers who guide you on poses. The hotel’s gardens and courtyards serve as natural backdrops, creating photos full of atmosphere. They even give you a few photos as gifts—perfect for getting tons of likes on social media. The service is truly top-notch! Full butler service throughout your stay, with WeChat communication before arrival to discuss your needs. Upon arrival, there’s a dedicated porter to help with luggage, and shuttle cars are available in the villa area with super fast response. Families with kids get prepared children’s bathrobes, toothbrushes, and toys in advance. Pet-friendly rooms can be reserved. Any request sent via WeChat gets a quick response—thoughtful without being intrusive, making the stay incredibly relaxing~ Transportation is super convenient! Free parking and charging spots for electric vehicles are available for self-driving guests, so no parking worries. It’s only 5.3 kilometers to Yingbin Road Station and 3.5 kilometers to Dujiangyan Station, making high-speed rail access easy. It’s a 1.5-hour drive from downtown Chengdu, and the hotel can help arrange taxis and book scenic area tickets. Whether traveling solo or with family, it’s very hassle-free. Staying here is truly a joy! Spend the day exploring Dujiangyan and Qingcheng Mountain, ski and shop in the afternoon, soak in the private hot springs at night, take ancient-style photos, and enjoy food, drink, and entertainment all in one place. Perfect for couples, friends, or family trips—definitely staying here again next time~ 🏨 Chengdu Qingcheng Songpin Hotel [RoundNails] No. 6 Zhizhen Road, Dujiangyan

When visiting Huangguoshu Waterfall, are you still staying at the noisy entrance of the scenic area? This time, my bestie and I discovered the ultimate solution—the Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse! It’s located in a Bouyei ethnic village near the waterfall, facing the canyon directly. Some rooms even offer direct views of the waterfall, truly fulfilling the dream of "sleeping with the waterfall at your pillow." 🌊 A unique waterfall viewing perspective: We stayed in the "Cliff View Room," with a balcony facing the deep valley and distant mountains. Although you can’t see the main Huangguoshu Waterfall directly (it requires a certain angle), you can see other cascading waterfalls in the canyon and the rushing Baishui River. In the early morning, you’re awakened by birdsong and the faint sound of water in the valley. Opening the window, the moist, fresh air rushes in, surrounded by lush greenery. This feeling of being embraced by nature is more healing than any alarm clock. The guesthouse also has a huge viewing platform with unbeatable views, perfect for watching the sunrise and sea of clouds. 🏡 Comfortable living in the mountains and fields: The guesthouse features a simple modern design blended with local Bouyei architectural elements, such as stone exterior walls. The rooms are spacious and bright, equipped with floor heating, smart toilets, and premium bedding. The biggest surprise is the bathtub facing the mountain view, allowing you to enjoy the scenery while soaking. The public areas include a book bar, tea room, and swimming pool (open in summer), so you can relax all day without even stepping outside. 🥘 Authentic Guizhou flavors and rural delights: The meals are authentic Guizhou cuisine, with many ingredients sourced from the guesthouse’s own garden or local farmers. We enjoyed sour soup fish, stir-fried cured meat with houttuynia, and wild vegetable eggs, all very authentic. The rice noodles at breakfast were unforgettable. After meals, you can stroll through the vegetable garden and experience the joy of picking (seasonal). 🚶‍♀️ Recommended off-the-beaten-path routes: Waterfall group exploration: Have the guesthouse manager drop you off at the Huangguoshu Scenic Area entrance, then visit in the order of "Doupotang → Tianxing Bridge (lower section) → Main Waterfall" to avoid most tour groups. Bouyei village stroll: The village where the guesthouse is located is very original and natural. You can take a walk, chat with villagers, and see the ancient stone houses. Baling River Bridge: A short drive away is this super engineering marvel, where you can try bungee jumping, high-altitude swings, and other extreme sports, or simply admire its grandeur from below. Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse perfectly solves the conflict between "getting close to nature" and "comfortable accommodation." It allows you to conveniently visit a world-class attraction while returning to the tranquility of the mountains and fields. With my bestie here, hiking to see waterfalls by day and gathering around the fire at night, it was a perfect holiday full of energy and wild charm.

Kyoto travel is not just about Kiyomizu-dera, Fushimi Inari Taisha, and Kinkaku-ji... If you prefer quiet and off-the-beaten-path spots, you must visit Kibune Shrine hidden in the mountains. · 🚃 Transportation Take the subway from Kyoto Station to Demachiyanagi Station ➡️ transfer at Demachiyanagi Station to the Eizan Electric Railway (towards Kurama) and get off at Kibuneguchi Station (35 minutes, 470 yen) ➡️ take a bus from Kibuneguchi to Kibune Shrine (5 minutes, 200 yen). ⏰ The last bus from Kibune Shrine to Kibuneguchi is at 18:25 (extended to 19:00 in summer). If you miss it, you can walk down the mountain (about 20 minutes; walking up takes about 20-30 minutes). · 🍁 From mid to late November to early December is the season when the autumn leaves at Kibune Shrine are very beautiful. There are many hiking and walking trails nearby, with stunning foliage and many waterfalls along the mountain streams. The crowds are not too large, making it a must-see. · 📷 Photo Tips ✅ The vermilion lantern stone steps at the entrance are very photogenic. Before 9 AM, there are almost no visitors; the morning is relatively quiet, but the afternoon and evening see many tourists. ✅ After 6 PM in summer, there is a special illumination 💡 with blue twilight and warm red lanterns, creating a dreamy, anime-like atmosphere perfect for photos. ✅ Weather doesn’t affect photo opportunities much here; personally, I find rainy days more atmospheric, and snow would be even more magical. · ⭐️ Travel Tips 1️⃣ Kibune is in the remote mountain outskirts, about 1 to 1.5 hours from central Kyoto. 2️⃣ ⛩️ It’s small and can be explored in less than half an hour. 3️⃣ The water fortune-telling here is famous: for 100 yen, you get a blank fortune slip (queue required), then dip it in the sacred water and the text appears, which is quite fun. 4️⃣ The flowing water somen noodles are very popular here. If you have time, definitely try them. They are usually served by the water, making it a cool and pleasant summer escape.

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

No need to fly to Provence! In the mountains and fields of Huzhou, my bestie and I discovered a dreamlike Anadu Olive Estate. In winter, there’s no bleakness here—only the warm Mediterranean sunlight hues, hills covered with olive trees, and ultimate tranquility, as if instantly transported to a private estate in southern France. 🚗 Arrival: The Beginning of a Ceremony It’s about a 2-hour drive from Hangzhou or Shanghai. The estate is tucked away on the gentle slopes of the Moganshan Mountains, offering great privacy. Passing through the gate marked by iconic olive trees and winding up the private road, the full view of the estate gradually unfolds: the off-white main building, the deep blue infinity pool, and olive groves stretching across the hills—a scene so beautiful it feels unreal. 🛏️ Stay Embraced by Olive Trees We stayed in the “Yingtian” room, featuring a large terrace and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. The room design blends elegant Nordic and southern French styles, with wood and linen textures that bring comfort. The best part is the balcony facing layers of olive groves, where winter sunlight turns the leaves silvery gray, and a breeze stirs a shimmer of light—you could quietly watch this all afternoon. 🌳 Exclusive Experiences at the Olive Estate Olive Grove Walk: Guided by the estate’s butler, learn about different olive tree varieties and the process from fruit to oil. The air is filled with the fresh scent of plants. Olive Oil Tasting: The estate produces its own extra virgin olive oil. In a professional tasting class, we learned how to observe color, smell aroma, and savor flavors, experiencing the distinct taste differences of various olive oils on the palate—a very fun experience. Bonfire Under the Stars: The estate’s bonfire area faces the valley. At night, light a fire and warm yourself around it. The estate’s homemade olive wine has a unique flavor, paired with roasted oranges—this is the ultimate winter night delight. 🍽️ Farm-to-Table Feast Anadu’s dining is a highlight. Many ingredients come from the estate or local partner farms. Dinner is a chef’s customized menu, with exquisite dishes from appetizers to desserts, cleverly incorporating olive oil and olive elements, creating a layered taste experience. The semi-buffet breakfast also offers very authentic local flavors. 📷 Photography Inspiration Notes Olive Grove Portraits: Wear white or earth tones, walk into the olive grove, and use the tree trunks’ lines and light and shadow to capture high-end forest-style shots. Infinity Pool Distant View: Although winter isn’t for swimming, the pool as the foreground with distant mountains and estate buildings as the background makes for a grand composition. Room Terrace: Use the olive groves as a backdrop to shoot breakfast or afternoon tea scenes, full of vacation vibes and lifestyle aesthetics. 💌 Warm Tips Estate activities like tasting classes and cycling require advance booking. Outdoor temperatures are low in winter, but indoor floor heating is sufficient; bring clothes suitable for indoor and outdoor temperature differences. This place is extremely quiet and private, perfect for a duo of besties needing complete relaxation and escape from the hustle. At Anadu Olive Estate, time is measured by the olive tree rings and the sunshine on your plate. It offers a completely different vacation style filled with plant fragrances and earth energy. If you and your bestie love nature, food, and tranquility, this will be your secret garden. Remember to search its name on Trip.com to start this journey through time.

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

Friends, who understands! When you come to Singapore, don’t just rush to the crowded tourist spots! This time in the Lion City, I finally made up for the hidden gems I missed during my 2023 work trips. These three places are all loved by locals, with fewer people and beautiful scenery. You can easily explore one in just half a day without tiring your legs! ✅ Tuas Link Raffles Lighthouse Take the green line to the last stop! Highly recommend going at dusk! I arrived right at the 6:30 PM sunset. That day had very few clouds, and the orange-pink sunset paired with the seaside lighthouse was stunning. When the blue hour came, I couldn’t stop snapping photos on my phone! ⚠️ If you’re staying on the east side, make sure to leave early! The trip is quite far, so don’t rush and miss the sunset! ✅ East Coast Park If you want to experience local life, head straight here! Navigate to Marine Parade MRT Station (TE26)! Don’t just search for the park directly, or you might end up walking forever! Just cross the underpass and you’re at the seaside. Watching the sunrise in the morning or chasing the sunset in the evening is amazing. Many locals cycle and stroll here, enjoying the sea breeze for an hour, totally chill! ⚠️ Some sections were under construction when I visited, so don’t wander aimlessly! Returning the same way to the MRT station is the safest bet! ✅ Botanic Gardens Who doesn’t love a tropical rainforest in the city center! Try to arrive before 10 AM! It’s less crowded and cooler, filled with tropical greenery and the fresh scent of grass. There’s none of the noisy square dancing by older folks, just locals leisurely walking around. It’s so relaxing you won’t want to leave! ⚠️ Free entry! Free entry! Free entry! Important enough to say three times! Remember to wear sunscreen and mosquito repellent so you don’t get bitten! After visiting these places, I really feel emotional. The sights I missed in 2023, I finally caught up on in 2026. Sometimes, traveling doesn’t mean rushing through an itinerary. Taking it slow and exploring places locals love is the most comfortable way to travel~

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Regular cars need to park near Cha Ping Hotel, then hike about 2-5 kilometers up the mountain along the farm road to the left of the hotel. High-clearance SUVs or four-wheel-drive vehicles can try driving directly up the mountain, but the mountain road is narrow and passing is difficult, so drive cautiously. Tour and Photography Guide Start from the parking spot at Cha Ping Hotel and hike up the mountain along the farm road on the left. Along the way, you can enjoy sea of flowers and reservoir views. Recommended photo spots: Small hill on the left side of the reservoir: classic angle to capture the sea of flowers, reservoir, and distant mountains. Backlit path at the mountain top: soft lighting, perfect for portrait silhouettes. Photography tips: It is recommended to wear light-colored, flowing long dresses paired with accessories like straw hats. You can also bring a bubble machine. Accommodation Recommendations 🏨 Core accommodation: Quanzhou Tianhu Cha Ping Hotel (the only hotel inside the scenic area) Room rates (per night): vary greatly between low and peak seasons, reference price 275-515 RMB, please check specific dates yourself. Buffet breakfast: 28 RMB per person. Accommodation deposit: 200 RMB per room. Food Guide Vinegar Duck Blood (Quanzhou specialty) Guilin "Wangcheng Vinegar Duck Blood Old Shop" average cost per person: 40-53 RMB. Set meals offer better value. During peak dining hours (6-7:30 PM), waiting is common. Quanzhou Red Oil Rice Noodles: Local price: 5 RMB (one liang) to 5.5 RMB (two liang), adding a marinated egg costs about 1.5 RMB. Hehua Fish and other farmhouse dishes: Mountain hotel restaurant: prices are reasonable, portions are average. Snack supplies: There are no shops on the mountain, so be sure to buy drinking water and snacks in the county town in advance. One-day Highlights Tour: Depart from Quanzhou County in the morning → Arrive and hike around Cha Ping Reservoir in the morning → Afternoon for photography and relaxation → Return in the evening. Two-day In-depth Tour: Day 1: Arrive at Tianhu Resort Area, visit Cha Ping Reservoir, stay overnight in the mountain area for stargazing. Day 2: Early morning cloud sea sunrise viewing, visit other reservoirs or wind farm landscapes in Tianhu, return in the afternoon.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

This trip to Norway, Bergen left us with a deep impression‼️ This city on Norway’s west coast is surrounded by seven mountains and fjords, known as the gateway to the Norwegian fjords. The old town is colorful, with vibrant wooden houses lining the waterfront at the harbor. All of this makes this rainy city full of poetry and tranquility✨ ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍Bergen The ancient city center of Bergen is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here you can find old streets, medieval houses, and cobblestone roads. You can admire medieval architecture and historical traces, feeling the charm of this ancient city. The old market square is one of the must-see spots and also the port for Royal Caribbean cruises. 📍Bergen Fish Market The Bergen Fish Market is one of Norway’s most famous fish markets. Here you can taste fresh seafood and delicious fish soup. The colorful wooden houses by the water in the market are very beautiful. This is one of Bergen’s most distinctive attractions and worth a visit. 📍Bryggen Museum The Bryggen Museum complex is one of Bergen’s most famous attractions, including 18 museums and galleries. It houses many precious historical artifacts and artworks. Here you can deeply learn about Norway’s history and culture. There are medieval churches, museums, and galleries, making it an excellent place to understand Norwegian history and culture. 📍Mount Fløyen Mount Fløyen is one of Bergen’s highest peaks and one of the best spots to overlook the entire city. Here you can enjoy magnificent fjord views and panoramic cityscapes. You can also take a cable car to the summit to admire the stunning scenery. It’s also a paradise for hiking enthusiasts, with many trails to choose from. 📍Bergen Cathedral A landmark building in Norway’s second-largest city, Bergen, this Gothic cathedral has been rebuilt multiple times after fires. Its green roof and white walls stand out prominently in the city. Built in the 12th century, this Gothic cathedral is an important symbol of Bergen’s history and religious culture. 🍽️【Restaurant Recommendations】 🔸Bryggeloftet & Stuene: 🌟 4.5 Bergen’s oldest restaurant with an elegant dining atmosphere, serving authentic Bergen cuisine. 🔸Egon Kjottbasaren: 🌟 4.1 A chain restaurant offering great value with pasta, pizza, and burgers.

Having a warm cup of hot chocolate here in winter is pure happiness~ ⛅️【Weather & Clothing】 🔹Raincoat is a must: Bergen rains over 200 days a year, so its nickname “Rain City” is well deserved. Regardless of the weather forecast, always bring a raincoat or umbrella. A waterproof jacket is very practical here. 🔹Keep warm: Even in summer, the wind on the mountain tops and by the sea is strong with noticeable temperature differences. It’s recommended to dress in layers for easy adjustment. If you take a fjord cruise, remember to bring a hat, scarf, and gloves as it can get very cold. 💡【Accommodation & Transportation】 ▪️Accommodation choice: It’s recommended to stay near the harbor, such as next to Bryggen Wharf, making it very convenient to reach the old town, fish market, and cable car station by foot. ▪️Transportation: Most city attractions are within walking distance since the city center is smaller than expected.

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

In Grindelwald, I truly experienced what it means to be stunningly beautiful 🌿 There is no city noise or hustle here, only tranquility and beauty~ It feels as if everything has been paused, enjoying this rare leisurely time ✨ 🌿 A little secret first “If there were a sequel to ‘Heidi and Grandpa,’ the filming location would definitely still be here.” The moment the train emerges from the tunnel—the snowy mountains unfold like a curtain, the grassy slopes layer upon layer, wooden houses scattered like chocolate chips, and even the cowbells sound like a 3D surround healing soundtrack. 🕰️ How does time pass here? 🔹 06:30 Morning mist dyes the pine needles silver, the first ray of sunlight falls on the north face of the Eiger, and the hillside instantly turns into golden terraces. 🔹 11:00 Cloud shadows slowly crawl over the green carpet, cows lower their heads to graze, swishing their tails, and time sways along. 🔹 19:30 The sunset paints the wooden window frames rose-colored, smoke drifts from chimneys with the scent of firewood—like the smell of grandma’s house from childhood memories. 🔹 22:00 Lights go out one by one, the Milky Way rises behind the snowy mountains, the hillside turns into piano keys, and the stars are dancing notes. ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍 Dreamy Hillside (Grindelwald Grund) This is Grindelwald’s most iconic landscape, with traditional wooden houses and grazing cattle and sheep on the green meadows nearby, and the magnificent snowy views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks in the distance, as if stepping into a fairy tale world. 📍 Jungfrau Take the cogwheel train from Grindelwald to the summit (ticket price 162 CHF/second class), transfer at Kleine Scheidegg, and reach Europe’s highest train station (3454 meters)! The Ice Palace at the top and the Sphinx Observatory overlook the Aletsch Glacier, leaving you speechless with awe. 📍 First Mountain Take the cable car directly to First Mountain, an excellent way to experience the Alpine scenery. 📍 Viewing Platform The viewing platform at the top of First offers a wide view, allowing close-up sights of the north face of the Eiger and the Schreckhorn. 📍 Cliff Walk From the cable car station, the First Cliff Walk takes about 20 minutes to complete. The viewing platform at the end extends into the air, offering breathtaking views. 📍 Mountain Karting Drive a kart from Schreckfeld station down to Bort station. It’s thrilling and fun, but queues can be long during peak season, so allow plenty of time. 🖼️【Recommended Hiking Routes】 🟡 Bort Downhill Hike: Walk from Bort cable car station down to Grindelwald town, about 4-5 km one way, moderate difficulty. Along the way, enjoy open grassy slopes, woods, and wooden houses—a great choice to experience the town’s pastoral charm. 🟡 Town to Bort Cable Car Station: This route is about 5 km one way with a total ascent of 450 meters, offering panoramic views of the valley. The autumn colors are especially stunning. 🏡【Accommodation Recommendations】 1️⃣ Best Value: Jugendherberge Grindelwald (Youth Hostel): Around ¥300 per person, balcony facing the Eiger! 2️⃣ Scenic Highlight: Derby Swiss Quality Hotel: Next to the train station, three-star, rooms with windows opening to the “Dreamy Hillside,” includes sauna + 3 restaurants. 3️⃣ Light Luxury Experience: Romantik Hotel Schweizerhof: Five-star wooden chalet hotel, cheese fondue with snowy mountain sunset, full of atmosphere! 💡【Practical Tips】 ▪️ Transportation: Take the train from Interlaken East Station about 30 minutes directly to Grindelwald. It’s recommended to sit on the right side by the window for better scenery concentration. ▪️ Accommodation: If you want to get up early for activities or sunrise, it’s best to stay in the town center for convenience. ▪️ Sun Protection: The high-altitude UV rays are very strong. Even on cloudy days or indoors, use SPF50+ sunscreen and reapply regularly. ▪️ Tickets: It’s recommended to book tickets for the First cable car and some activities (like karting) in advance on the official website, especially during peak season. ▪️ Gear: Comfortable, non-slip shoes are a must. Mountain weather is changeable, so bring warm jackets and rain gear. This trip to Grindelwald has brought new expectations for life. Life doesn’t always have to be grand and dramatic; sometimes, a quiet corner and a beautiful view can bring immense happiness. Just like the small houses and forests in Grindelwald, simple yet full of warmth and healing. 💖

Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park.

For budget-conscious travelers in Singapore, finding a gem that balances cost with quality can be a challenge, but the Owen Hotel at Little India effortlessly hits that sweet spot. While its exterior presents as a big hotel, the true value lies within, where guests are consistently greeted with a surprising level of comfort, remarkable quietness, and impeccable cleanliness—a rare trifecta for affordable accommodations.

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Vacationing at Qingcheng Mountain and Dujiangyan, I discovered a hidden gem hotel that takes New Chinese aesthetics to the extreme! Qingcheng Songpin truly fulfilled all my imaginations of a mountain forest getaway—private hot spring villas, Song-style courtyards, butler service, and after staying here, I didn’t want to leave. The location is absolutely perfect! It’s right in the core area of Dujiangyan Sunac Cultural Tourism City, only about 4 kilometers from the Dujiangyan Scenic Area, just a 10-minute drive. Qingcheng Mountain Scenic Area is only 16 kilometers away, about a 20-minute drive. After sightseeing, it’s super convenient to return to the hotel for a hot spring soak. Next door is Sunac Snow World and Sunac Mall—just a few minutes’ walk for skiing or shopping. The phrase “bustling outside, secluded inside” perfectly describes this place~ The moment you enter the hotel, you’re struck by the masterful New Chinese design! The overall style is a fusion of “Song Dynasty + Western Sichuan residences.” The standalone villas with white walls and dark tiles are nestled among lush forests and bamboo groves, with imposing dark gray tile sloped roofs. The lobby is stunning, featuring grand black Shen-style lacquered pillars, and a huge Dongyang wood carving of the “Panorama of Qingcheng Mountain” hanging on the wall. Even the registration area replicates the blue-green landscape style of the “A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains” painting, with every detail exuding Song Dynasty elegance. The courtyard has winding bridges and flowing water, bamboo paths leading to quiet spots, ubiquitous Shu brocade decorations, birdcage lamps, and every few steps you find a Song painting—every photo is a masterpiece. The hot spring villa we booked was absolutely amazing! A standalone courtyard with a private hot spring, surrounded by lush greenery for maximum privacy. The room features a large horizontal hall design with a spacious layout, natural wood furniture paired with Shu brocade decorations—elegant and luxurious without feeling cramped. My favorite is the private hot spring pool in the courtyard, kept at a constant temperature 24/7, with options for rose, osmanthus, or herbal packs. Soaking in the warm water while gazing at the green mountain forest outside the window, and looking up at the starry sky at night, all fatigue instantly melts away. The bedding is soft and cozy, soundproofing is excellent, and waking up to birdsong in the morning is so healing~ No worries about dining! The hotel has a dedicated Song Banquet Chinese restaurant serving authentic Sichuan cuisine, as well as Cantonese and Huaiyang dishes, all very authentic. Breakfast is a buffet with a wide variety, including handmade yogurt, pickled cabbage beef noodles, matsutake mushroom meat buns—all delicious, plus freshly ground soy milk. You’ll be full and ready to go out for the day. If you don’t want to go far, lunch and dinner at the hotel are great too, with fresh ingredients and flavors that suit the palate. You must try the travel photography service! The hotel partners with a Hanfu photo studio, so you don’t need to bring your own clothes—just pick from their selection. There are professional stylists for makeup and hair, and patient photographers who guide you on poses. The hotel’s gardens and courtyards serve as natural backdrops, creating photos full of atmosphere. They even give you a few photos as gifts—perfect for getting tons of likes on social media. The service is truly top-notch! Full butler service throughout your stay, with WeChat communication before arrival to discuss your needs. Upon arrival, there’s a dedicated porter to help with luggage, and shuttle cars are available in the villa area with super fast response. Families with kids get prepared children’s bathrobes, toothbrushes, and toys in advance. Pet-friendly rooms can be reserved. Any request sent via WeChat gets a quick response—thoughtful without being intrusive, making the stay incredibly relaxing~ Transportation is super convenient! Free parking and charging spots for electric vehicles are available for self-driving guests, so no parking worries. It’s only 5.3 kilometers to Yingbin Road Station and 3.5 kilometers to Dujiangyan Station, making high-speed rail access easy. It’s a 1.5-hour drive from downtown Chengdu, and the hotel can help arrange taxis and book scenic area tickets. Whether traveling solo or with family, it’s very hassle-free. Staying here is truly a joy! Spend the day exploring Dujiangyan and Qingcheng Mountain, ski and shop in the afternoon, soak in the private hot springs at night, take ancient-style photos, and enjoy food, drink, and entertainment all in one place. Perfect for couples, friends, or family trips—definitely staying here again next time~ 🏨 Chengdu Qingcheng Songpin Hotel [RoundNails] No. 6 Zhizhen Road, Dujiangyan

When visiting Huangguoshu Waterfall, are you still staying at the noisy entrance of the scenic area? This time, my bestie and I discovered the ultimate solution—the Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse! It’s located in a Bouyei ethnic village near the waterfall, facing the canyon directly. Some rooms even offer direct views of the waterfall, truly fulfilling the dream of "sleeping with the waterfall at your pillow." 🌊 A unique waterfall viewing perspective: We stayed in the "Cliff View Room," with a balcony facing the deep valley and distant mountains. Although you can’t see the main Huangguoshu Waterfall directly (it requires a certain angle), you can see other cascading waterfalls in the canyon and the rushing Baishui River. In the early morning, you’re awakened by birdsong and the faint sound of water in the valley. Opening the window, the moist, fresh air rushes in, surrounded by lush greenery. This feeling of being embraced by nature is more healing than any alarm clock. The guesthouse also has a huge viewing platform with unbeatable views, perfect for watching the sunrise and sea of clouds. 🏡 Comfortable living in the mountains and fields: The guesthouse features a simple modern design blended with local Bouyei architectural elements, such as stone exterior walls. The rooms are spacious and bright, equipped with floor heating, smart toilets, and premium bedding. The biggest surprise is the bathtub facing the mountain view, allowing you to enjoy the scenery while soaking. The public areas include a book bar, tea room, and swimming pool (open in summer), so you can relax all day without even stepping outside. 🥘 Authentic Guizhou flavors and rural delights: The meals are authentic Guizhou cuisine, with many ingredients sourced from the guesthouse’s own garden or local farmers. We enjoyed sour soup fish, stir-fried cured meat with houttuynia, and wild vegetable eggs, all very authentic. The rice noodles at breakfast were unforgettable. After meals, you can stroll through the vegetable garden and experience the joy of picking (seasonal). 🚶‍♀️ Recommended off-the-beaten-path routes: Waterfall group exploration: Have the guesthouse manager drop you off at the Huangguoshu Scenic Area entrance, then visit in the order of "Doupotang → Tianxing Bridge (lower section) → Main Waterfall" to avoid most tour groups. Bouyei village stroll: The village where the guesthouse is located is very original and natural. You can take a walk, chat with villagers, and see the ancient stone houses. Baling River Bridge: A short drive away is this super engineering marvel, where you can try bungee jumping, high-altitude swings, and other extreme sports, or simply admire its grandeur from below. Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse perfectly solves the conflict between "getting close to nature" and "comfortable accommodation." It allows you to conveniently visit a world-class attraction while returning to the tranquility of the mountains and fields. With my bestie here, hiking to see waterfalls by day and gathering around the fire at night, it was a perfect holiday full of energy and wild charm.

Kyoto travel is not just about Kiyomizu-dera, Fushimi Inari Taisha, and Kinkaku-ji... If you prefer quiet and off-the-beaten-path spots, you must visit Kibune Shrine hidden in the mountains. · 🚃 Transportation Take the subway from Kyoto Station to Demachiyanagi Station ➡️ transfer at Demachiyanagi Station to the Eizan Electric Railway (towards Kurama) and get off at Kibuneguchi Station (35 minutes, 470 yen) ➡️ take a bus from Kibuneguchi to Kibune Shrine (5 minutes, 200 yen). ⏰ The last bus from Kibune Shrine to Kibuneguchi is at 18:25 (extended to 19:00 in summer). If you miss it, you can walk down the mountain (about 20 minutes; walking up takes about 20-30 minutes). · 🍁 From mid to late November to early December is the season when the autumn leaves at Kibune Shrine are very beautiful. There are many hiking and walking trails nearby, with stunning foliage and many waterfalls along the mountain streams. The crowds are not too large, making it a must-see. · 📷 Photo Tips ✅ The vermilion lantern stone steps at the entrance are very photogenic. Before 9 AM, there are almost no visitors; the morning is relatively quiet, but the afternoon and evening see many tourists. ✅ After 6 PM in summer, there is a special illumination 💡 with blue twilight and warm red lanterns, creating a dreamy, anime-like atmosphere perfect for photos. ✅ Weather doesn’t affect photo opportunities much here; personally, I find rainy days more atmospheric, and snow would be even more magical. · ⭐️ Travel Tips 1️⃣ Kibune is in the remote mountain outskirts, about 1 to 1.5 hours from central Kyoto. 2️⃣ ⛩️ It’s small and can be explored in less than half an hour. 3️⃣ The water fortune-telling here is famous: for 100 yen, you get a blank fortune slip (queue required), then dip it in the sacred water and the text appears, which is quite fun. 4️⃣ The flowing water somen noodles are very popular here. If you have time, definitely try them. They are usually served by the water, making it a cool and pleasant summer escape.

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

No need to fly to Provence! In the mountains and fields of Huzhou, my bestie and I discovered a dreamlike Anadu Olive Estate. In winter, there’s no bleakness here—only the warm Mediterranean sunlight hues, hills covered with olive trees, and ultimate tranquility, as if instantly transported to a private estate in southern France. 🚗 Arrival: The Beginning of a Ceremony It’s about a 2-hour drive from Hangzhou or Shanghai. The estate is tucked away on the gentle slopes of the Moganshan Mountains, offering great privacy. Passing through the gate marked by iconic olive trees and winding up the private road, the full view of the estate gradually unfolds: the off-white main building, the deep blue infinity pool, and olive groves stretching across the hills—a scene so beautiful it feels unreal. 🛏️ Stay Embraced by Olive Trees We stayed in the “Yingtian” room, featuring a large terrace and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. The room design blends elegant Nordic and southern French styles, with wood and linen textures that bring comfort. The best part is the balcony facing layers of olive groves, where winter sunlight turns the leaves silvery gray, and a breeze stirs a shimmer of light—you could quietly watch this all afternoon. 🌳 Exclusive Experiences at the Olive Estate Olive Grove Walk: Guided by the estate’s butler, learn about different olive tree varieties and the process from fruit to oil. The air is filled with the fresh scent of plants. Olive Oil Tasting: The estate produces its own extra virgin olive oil. In a professional tasting class, we learned how to observe color, smell aroma, and savor flavors, experiencing the distinct taste differences of various olive oils on the palate—a very fun experience. Bonfire Under the Stars: The estate’s bonfire area faces the valley. At night, light a fire and warm yourself around it. The estate’s homemade olive wine has a unique flavor, paired with roasted oranges—this is the ultimate winter night delight. 🍽️ Farm-to-Table Feast Anadu’s dining is a highlight. Many ingredients come from the estate or local partner farms. Dinner is a chef’s customized menu, with exquisite dishes from appetizers to desserts, cleverly incorporating olive oil and olive elements, creating a layered taste experience. The semi-buffet breakfast also offers very authentic local flavors. 📷 Photography Inspiration Notes Olive Grove Portraits: Wear white or earth tones, walk into the olive grove, and use the tree trunks’ lines and light and shadow to capture high-end forest-style shots. Infinity Pool Distant View: Although winter isn’t for swimming, the pool as the foreground with distant mountains and estate buildings as the background makes for a grand composition. Room Terrace: Use the olive groves as a backdrop to shoot breakfast or afternoon tea scenes, full of vacation vibes and lifestyle aesthetics. 💌 Warm Tips Estate activities like tasting classes and cycling require advance booking. Outdoor temperatures are low in winter, but indoor floor heating is sufficient; bring clothes suitable for indoor and outdoor temperature differences. This place is extremely quiet and private, perfect for a duo of besties needing complete relaxation and escape from the hustle. At Anadu Olive Estate, time is measured by the olive tree rings and the sunshine on your plate. It offers a completely different vacation style filled with plant fragrances and earth energy. If you and your bestie love nature, food, and tranquility, this will be your secret garden. Remember to search its name on Trip.com to start this journey through time.

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

Friends, who understands! When you come to Singapore, don’t just rush to the crowded tourist spots! This time in the Lion City, I finally made up for the hidden gems I missed during my 2023 work trips. These three places are all loved by locals, with fewer people and beautiful scenery. You can easily explore one in just half a day without tiring your legs! ✅ Tuas Link Raffles Lighthouse Take the green line to the last stop! Highly recommend going at dusk! I arrived right at the 6:30 PM sunset. That day had very few clouds, and the orange-pink sunset paired with the seaside lighthouse was stunning. When the blue hour came, I couldn’t stop snapping photos on my phone! ⚠️ If you’re staying on the east side, make sure to leave early! The trip is quite far, so don’t rush and miss the sunset! ✅ East Coast Park If you want to experience local life, head straight here! Navigate to Marine Parade MRT Station (TE26)! Don’t just search for the park directly, or you might end up walking forever! Just cross the underpass and you’re at the seaside. Watching the sunrise in the morning or chasing the sunset in the evening is amazing. Many locals cycle and stroll here, enjoying the sea breeze for an hour, totally chill! ⚠️ Some sections were under construction when I visited, so don’t wander aimlessly! Returning the same way to the MRT station is the safest bet! ✅ Botanic Gardens Who doesn’t love a tropical rainforest in the city center! Try to arrive before 10 AM! It’s less crowded and cooler, filled with tropical greenery and the fresh scent of grass. There’s none of the noisy square dancing by older folks, just locals leisurely walking around. It’s so relaxing you won’t want to leave! ⚠️ Free entry! Free entry! Free entry! Important enough to say three times! Remember to wear sunscreen and mosquito repellent so you don’t get bitten! After visiting these places, I really feel emotional. The sights I missed in 2023, I finally caught up on in 2026. Sometimes, traveling doesn’t mean rushing through an itinerary. Taking it slow and exploring places locals love is the most comfortable way to travel~

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Regular cars need to park near Cha Ping Hotel, then hike about 2-5 kilometers up the mountain along the farm road to the left of the hotel. High-clearance SUVs or four-wheel-drive vehicles can try driving directly up the mountain, but the mountain road is narrow and passing is difficult, so drive cautiously. Tour and Photography Guide Start from the parking spot at Cha Ping Hotel and hike up the mountain along the farm road on the left. Along the way, you can enjoy sea of flowers and reservoir views. Recommended photo spots: Small hill on the left side of the reservoir: classic angle to capture the sea of flowers, reservoir, and distant mountains. Backlit path at the mountain top: soft lighting, perfect for portrait silhouettes. Photography tips: It is recommended to wear light-colored, flowing long dresses paired with accessories like straw hats. You can also bring a bubble machine. Accommodation Recommendations 🏨 Core accommodation: Quanzhou Tianhu Cha Ping Hotel (the only hotel inside the scenic area) Room rates (per night): vary greatly between low and peak seasons, reference price 275-515 RMB, please check specific dates yourself. Buffet breakfast: 28 RMB per person. Accommodation deposit: 200 RMB per room. Food Guide Vinegar Duck Blood (Quanzhou specialty) Guilin "Wangcheng Vinegar Duck Blood Old Shop" average cost per person: 40-53 RMB. Set meals offer better value. During peak dining hours (6-7:30 PM), waiting is common. Quanzhou Red Oil Rice Noodles: Local price: 5 RMB (one liang) to 5.5 RMB (two liang), adding a marinated egg costs about 1.5 RMB. Hehua Fish and other farmhouse dishes: Mountain hotel restaurant: prices are reasonable, portions are average. Snack supplies: There are no shops on the mountain, so be sure to buy drinking water and snacks in the county town in advance. One-day Highlights Tour: Depart from Quanzhou County in the morning → Arrive and hike around Cha Ping Reservoir in the morning → Afternoon for photography and relaxation → Return in the evening. Two-day In-depth Tour: Day 1: Arrive at Tianhu Resort Area, visit Cha Ping Reservoir, stay overnight in the mountain area for stargazing. Day 2: Early morning cloud sea sunrise viewing, visit other reservoirs or wind farm landscapes in Tianhu, return in the afternoon.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

This trip to Norway, Bergen left us with a deep impression‼️ This city on Norway’s west coast is surrounded by seven mountains and fjords, known as the gateway to the Norwegian fjords. The old town is colorful, with vibrant wooden houses lining the waterfront at the harbor. All of this makes this rainy city full of poetry and tranquility✨ ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍Bergen The ancient city center of Bergen is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here you can find old streets, medieval houses, and cobblestone roads. You can admire medieval architecture and historical traces, feeling the charm of this ancient city. The old market square is one of the must-see spots and also the port for Royal Caribbean cruises. 📍Bergen Fish Market The Bergen Fish Market is one of Norway’s most famous fish markets. Here you can taste fresh seafood and delicious fish soup. The colorful wooden houses by the water in the market are very beautiful. This is one of Bergen’s most distinctive attractions and worth a visit. 📍Bryggen Museum The Bryggen Museum complex is one of Bergen’s most famous attractions, including 18 museums and galleries. It houses many precious historical artifacts and artworks. Here you can deeply learn about Norway’s history and culture. There are medieval churches, museums, and galleries, making it an excellent place to understand Norwegian history and culture. 📍Mount Fløyen Mount Fløyen is one of Bergen’s highest peaks and one of the best spots to overlook the entire city. Here you can enjoy magnificent fjord views and panoramic cityscapes. You can also take a cable car to the summit to admire the stunning scenery. It’s also a paradise for hiking enthusiasts, with many trails to choose from. 📍Bergen Cathedral A landmark building in Norway’s second-largest city, Bergen, this Gothic cathedral has been rebuilt multiple times after fires. Its green roof and white walls stand out prominently in the city. Built in the 12th century, this Gothic cathedral is an important symbol of Bergen’s history and religious culture. 🍽️【Restaurant Recommendations】 🔸Bryggeloftet & Stuene: 🌟 4.5 Bergen’s oldest restaurant with an elegant dining atmosphere, serving authentic Bergen cuisine. 🔸Egon Kjottbasaren: 🌟 4.1 A chain restaurant offering great value with pasta, pizza, and burgers. Highly recommend the cod fillet and delicious Norwegian fish soup! 🔸Fjåk Chocolate Shop & Café: 🌟 4.8 A chocolate shop in the city center. Having a warm cup of hot chocolate here in winter is pure happiness~ ⛅️【Weather & Clothing】 🔹Raincoat is a must: Bergen rains over 200 days a year, so its nickname “Rain City” is well deserved. Regardless of the weather forecast, always bring a raincoat or umbrella. A waterproof jacket is very practical here. 🔹Keep warm: Even in summer, the wind on the mountain tops and by the sea is strong with noticeable temperature differences. It’s recommended to dress in layers for easy adjustment. If you take a fjord cruise, remember to bring a hat, scarf, and gloves as it can get very cold. 💡【Accommodation & Transportation】 ▪️Accommodation choice: It’s recommended to stay near the harbor, such as next to Bryggen Wharf, making it very convenient to reach the old town, fish market, and cable car station by foot. ▪️Transportation: Most city attractions are within walking distance since the city center is smaller than expected.

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

In Grindelwald, I truly experienced what it means to be stunningly beautiful 🌿 There is no city noise or hustle here, only tranquility and beauty~ It feels as if everything has been paused, enjoying this rare leisurely time ✨ 🌿 A little secret first “If there were a sequel to ‘Heidi and Grandpa,’ the filming location would definitely still be here.” The moment the train emerges from the tunnel—the snowy mountains unfold like a curtain, the grassy slopes layer upon layer, wooden houses scattered like chocolate chips, and even the cowbells sound like a 3D surround healing soundtrack. 🕰️ How does time pass here? 🔹 06:30 Morning mist dyes the pine needles silver, the first ray of sunlight falls on the north face of the Eiger, and the hillside instantly turns into golden terraces. 🔹 11:00 Cloud shadows slowly crawl over the green carpet, cows lower their heads to graze, swishing their tails, and time sways along. 🔹 19:30 The sunset paints the wooden window frames rose-colored, smoke drifts from chimneys with the scent of firewood—like the smell of grandma’s house from childhood memories. 🔹 22:00 Lights go out one by one, the Milky Way rises behind the snowy mountains, the hillside turns into piano keys, and the stars are dancing notes. ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍 Dreamy Hillside (Grindelwald Grund) This is Grindelwald’s most iconic landscape, with traditional wooden houses and grazing cattle and sheep on the green meadows nearby, and the magnificent snowy views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks in the distance, as if stepping into a fairy tale world. 📍 Jungfrau Take the cogwheel train from Grindelwald to the summit (ticket price 162 CHF/second class), transfer at Kleine Scheidegg, and reach Europe’s highest train station (3454 meters)! The Ice Palace at the top and the Sphinx Observatory overlook the Aletsch Glacier, leaving you speechless with awe. 📍 First Mountain Take the cable car directly to First Mountain, an excellent way to experience the Alpine scenery. 📍 Viewing Platform The viewing platform at the top of First offers a wide view, allowing close-up sights of the north face of the Eiger and the Schreckhorn. 📍 Cliff Walk From the cable car station, the First Cliff Walk takes about 20 minutes to complete. The viewing platform at the end extends into the air, offering breathtaking views. 📍 Mountain Karting Drive a kart from Schreckfeld station down to Bort station. It’s thrilling and fun, but queues can be long during peak season, so allow plenty of time. 🖼️【Recommended Hiking Routes】 🟡 Bort Downhill Hike: Walk from Bort cable car station down to Grindelwald town, about 4-5 km one way, moderate difficulty. Along the way, enjoy open grassy slopes, woods, and wooden houses—a great choice to experience the town’s pastoral charm. 🟡 Town to Bort Cable Car Station: This route is about 5 km one way with a total ascent of 450 meters, offering panoramic views of the valley. The autumn colors are especially stunning. 🏡【Accommodation Recommendations】 1️⃣ Best Value: Jugendherberge Grindelwald (Youth Hostel): Around ¥300 per person, balcony facing the Eiger! 2️⃣ Scenic Highlight: Derby Swiss Quality Hotel: Next to the train station, three-star, rooms with windows opening to the “Dreamy Hillside,” includes sauna + 3 restaurants. 3️⃣ Light Luxury Experience: Romantik Hotel Schweizerhof: Five-star wooden chalet hotel, cheese fondue with snowy mountain sunset, full of atmosphere! 💡【Practical Tips】 ▪️ Transportation: Take the train from Interlaken East Station about 30 minutes directly to Grindelwald. It’s recommended to sit on the right side by the window for better scenery concentration. ▪️ Accommodation: If you want to get up early for activities or sunrise, it’s best to stay in the town center for convenience. ▪️ Sun Protection: The high-altitude UV rays are very strong. Even on cloudy days or indoors, use SPF50+ sunscreen and reapply regularly. ▪️ Tickets: It’s recommended to book tickets for the First cable car and some activities (like karting) in advance on the official website, especially during peak season. ▪️ Gear: Comfortable, non-slip shoes are a must. Mountain weather is changeable, so bring warm jackets and rain gear. This trip to Grindelwald has brought new expectations for life. Life doesn’t always have to be grand and dramatic; sometimes, a quiet corner and a beautiful view can bring immense happiness. Just like the small houses and forests in Grindelwald, simple yet full of warmth and healing. 💖

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money. I’d recommend it to both leisure and business travelers, especially those who value transit convenience and comfort. Staying in this area means you can get anywhere within 15 minutes!

For budget-conscious travelers in Singapore, finding a gem that balances cost with quality can be a challenge, but the Owen Hotel at Little India effortlessly hits that sweet spot. While its exterior presents as a big hotel, the true value lies within, where guests are consistently greeted with a surprising level of comfort, remarkable quietness, and impeccable cleanliness—a rare trifecta for affordable accommodations. The standout feature, however, is its unbeatable location, which I would confidently rate a perfect 5/5. The hotel’s proximity to Farrer Park MRT station is almost unparalleled, as a leisurely walk of less than two minutes places you directly at the train entrance, making the entire city effortlessly accessible. This seamless connectivity allows you to explore Singapore's vibrant attractions without the hassle of long commutes, ensuring you save both time and money. Whether you are a solo backpacker or a family looking to stretch your dollar, the Owen Hotel provides a serene sanctuary that proves you don't have to sacrifice quality for an affordable price in this bustling city.

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Vacationing at Qingcheng Mountain and Dujiangyan, I discovered a hidden gem hotel that takes New Chinese aesthetics to the extreme! Qingcheng Songpin truly fulfilled all my imaginations of a mountain forest getaway—private hot spring villas, Song-style courtyards, butler service, and after staying here, I didn’t want to leave. The location is absolutely perfect! It’s right in the core area of Dujiangyan Sunac Cultural Tourism City, only about 4 kilometers from the Dujiangyan Scenic Area, just a 10-minute drive. Qingcheng Mountain Scenic Area is only 16 kilometers away, about a 20-minute drive. After sightseeing, it’s super convenient to return to the hotel for a hot spring soak. Next door is Sunac Snow World and Sunac Mall—just a few minutes’ walk for skiing or shopping. The phrase “bustling outside, secluded inside” perfectly describes this place~ The moment you enter the hotel, you’re struck by the masterful New Chinese design! The overall style is a fusion of “Song Dynasty + Western Sichuan residences.” The standalone villas with white walls and dark tiles are nestled among lush forests and bamboo groves, with imposing dark gray tile sloped roofs. The lobby is stunning, featuring grand black Shen-style lacquered pillars, and a huge Dongyang wood carving of the “Panorama of Qingcheng Mountain” hanging on the wall. Even the registration area replicates the blue-green landscape style of the “A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains” painting, with every detail exuding Song Dynasty elegance. The courtyard has winding bridges and flowing water, bamboo paths leading to quiet spots, ubiquitous Shu brocade decorations, birdcage lamps, and every few steps you find a Song painting—every photo is a masterpiece. The hot spring villa we booked was absolutely amazing! A standalone courtyard with a private hot spring, surrounded by lush greenery for maximum privacy. The room features a large horizontal hall design with a spacious layout, natural wood furniture paired with Shu brocade decorations—elegant and luxurious without feeling cramped. My favorite is the private hot spring pool in the courtyard, kept at a constant temperature 24/7, with options for rose, osmanthus, or herbal packs. Soaking in the warm water while gazing at the green mountain forest outside the window, and looking up at the starry sky at night, all fatigue instantly melts away. The bedding is soft and cozy, soundproofing is excellent, and waking up to birdsong in the morning is so healing~ No worries about dining! The hotel has a dedicated Song Banquet Chinese restaurant serving authentic Sichuan cuisine, as well as Cantonese and Huaiyang dishes, all very authentic. Breakfast is a buffet with a wide variety, including handmade yogurt, pickled cabbage beef noodles, matsutake mushroom meat buns—all delicious, plus freshly ground soy milk. You’ll be full and ready to go out for the day. If you don’t want to go far, lunch and dinner at the hotel are great too, with fresh ingredients and flavors that suit the palate. You must try the travel photography service! The hotel partners with a Hanfu photo studio, so you don’t need to bring your own clothes—just pick from their selection. There are professional stylists for makeup and hair, and patient photographers who guide you on poses. The hotel’s gardens and courtyards serve as natural backdrops, creating photos full of atmosphere. They even give you a few photos as gifts—perfect for getting tons of likes on social media. The service is truly top-notch! Full butler service throughout your stay, with WeChat communication before arrival to discuss your needs. Upon arrival, there’s a dedicated porter to help with luggage, and shuttle cars are available in the villa area with super fast response. Families with kids get prepared children’s bathrobes, toothbrushes, and toys in advance. Pet-friendly rooms can be reserved. Any request sent via WeChat gets a quick response—thoughtful without being intrusive, making the stay incredibly relaxing~ Transportation is super convenient! Free parking and charging spots for electric vehicles are available for self-driving guests, so no parking worries. It’s only 5.3 kilometers to Yingbin Road Station and 3.5 kilometers to Dujiangyan Station, making high-speed rail access easy. It’s a 1.5-hour drive from downtown Chengdu, and the hotel can help arrange taxis and book scenic area tickets. Whether traveling solo or with family, it’s very hassle-free. Staying here is truly a joy! Spend the day exploring Dujiangyan and Qingcheng Mountain, ski and shop in the afternoon, soak in the private hot springs at night, take ancient-style photos, and enjoy food, drink, and entertainment all in one place. Perfect for couples, friends, or family trips—definitely staying here again next time~ 🏨 Chengdu Qingcheng Songpin Hotel [RoundNails] No. 6 Zhizhen Road, Dujiangyan

When visiting Huangguoshu Waterfall, are you still staying at the noisy entrance of the scenic area? This time, my bestie and I discovered the ultimate solution—the Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse! It’s located in a Bouyei ethnic village near the waterfall, facing the canyon directly. Some rooms even offer direct views of the waterfall, truly fulfilling the dream of "sleeping with the waterfall at your pillow." 🌊 A unique waterfall viewing perspective: We stayed in the "Cliff View Room," with a balcony facing the deep valley and distant mountains. Although you can’t see the main Huangguoshu Waterfall directly (it requires a certain angle), you can see other cascading waterfalls in the canyon and the rushing Baishui River. In the early morning, you’re awakened by birdsong and the faint sound of water in the valley. Opening the window, the moist, fresh air rushes in, surrounded by lush greenery. This feeling of being embraced by nature is more healing than any alarm clock. The guesthouse also has a huge viewing platform with unbeatable views, perfect for watching the sunrise and sea of clouds. 🏡 Comfortable living in the mountains and fields: The guesthouse features a simple modern design blended with local Bouyei architectural elements, such as stone exterior walls. The rooms are spacious and bright, equipped with floor heating, smart toilets, and premium bedding. The biggest surprise is the bathtub facing the mountain view, allowing you to enjoy the scenery while soaking. The public areas include a book bar, tea room, and swimming pool (open in summer), so you can relax all day without even stepping outside. 🥘 Authentic Guizhou flavors and rural delights: The meals are authentic Guizhou cuisine, with many ingredients sourced from the guesthouse’s own garden or local farmers. We enjoyed sour soup fish, stir-fried cured meat with houttuynia, and wild vegetable eggs, all very authentic. The rice noodles at breakfast were unforgettable. After meals, you can stroll through the vegetable garden and experience the joy of picking (seasonal). 🚶‍♀️ Recommended off-the-beaten-path routes: Waterfall group exploration: Have the guesthouse manager drop you off at the Huangguoshu Scenic Area entrance, then visit in the order of "Doupotang → Tianxing Bridge (lower section) → Main Waterfall" to avoid most tour groups. Bouyei village stroll: The village where the guesthouse is located is very original and natural. You can take a walk, chat with villagers, and see the ancient stone houses. Baling River Bridge: A short drive away is this super engineering marvel, where you can try bungee jumping, high-altitude swings, and other extreme sports, or simply admire its grandeur from below. Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse perfectly solves the conflict between "getting close to nature" and "comfortable accommodation." It allows you to conveniently visit a world-class attraction while returning to the tranquility of the mountains and fields. With my bestie here, hiking to see waterfalls by day and gathering around the fire at night, it was a perfect holiday full of energy and wild charm.

There are many hiking and walking trails nearby, with stunning foliage and many waterfalls along the mountain streams. The crowds are not too large, making it a must-see. · 📷 Photo Tips ✅ The vermilion lantern stone steps at the entrance are very photogenic. Before 9 AM, there are almost no visitors; the morning is relatively quiet, but the afternoon and evening see many tourists. ✅ After 6 PM in summer, there is a special illumination 💡 with blue twilight and warm red lanterns, creating a dreamy, anime-like atmosphere perfect for photos. ✅ Weather doesn’t affect photo opportunities much here; personally, I find rainy days more atmospheric, and snow would be even more magical. · ⭐️ Travel Tips 1️⃣ Kibune is in the remote mountain outskirts, about 1 to 1.5 hours from central Kyoto. 2️⃣ ⛩️ It’s small and can be explored in less than half an hour. 3️⃣ The water fortune-telling here is famous: for 100 yen, you get a blank fortune slip (queue required), then dip it in the sacred water and the text appears, which is quite fun. 4️⃣ The flowing water somen noodles are very popular here. If you have time, definitely try them. They are usually served by the water, making it a cool and pleasant summer escape.

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

No need to fly to Provence! In the mountains and fields of Huzhou, my bestie and I discovered a dreamlike Anadu Olive Estate. In winter, there’s no bleakness here—only the warm Mediterranean sunlight hues, hills covered with olive trees, and ultimate tranquility, as if instantly transported to a private estate in southern France. 🚗 Arrival: The Beginning of a Ceremony It’s about a 2-hour drive from Hangzhou or Shanghai. The estate is tucked away on the gentle slopes of the Moganshan Mountains, offering great privacy. Passing through the gate marked by iconic olive trees and winding up the private road, the full view of the estate gradually unfolds: the off-white main building, the deep blue infinity pool, and olive groves stretching across the hills—a scene so beautiful it feels unreal. 🛏️ Stay Embraced by Olive Trees We stayed in the “Yingtian” room, featuring a large terrace and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. The room design blends elegant Nordic and southern French styles, with wood and linen textures that bring comfort. The best part is the balcony facing layers of olive groves, where winter sunlight turns the leaves silvery gray, and a breeze stirs a shimmer of light—you could quietly watch this all afternoon. 🌳 Exclusive Experiences at the Olive Estate Olive Grove Walk: Guided by the estate’s butler, learn about different olive tree varieties and the process from fruit to oil. The air is filled with the fresh scent of plants. Olive Oil Tasting: The estate produces its own extra virgin olive oil. In a professional tasting class, we learned how to observe color, smell aroma, and savor flavors, experiencing the distinct taste differences of various olive oils on the palate—a very fun experience. Bonfire Under the Stars: The estate’s bonfire area faces the valley. At night, light a fire and warm yourself around it. The estate’s homemade olive wine has a unique flavor, paired with roasted oranges—this is the ultimate winter night delight. 🍽️ Farm-to-Table Feast Anadu’s dining is a highlight. Many ingredients come from the estate or local partner farms. Dinner is a chef’s customized menu, with exquisite dishes from appetizers to desserts, cleverly incorporating olive oil and olive elements, creating a layered taste experience. The semi-buffet breakfast also offers very authentic local flavors. 📷 Photography Inspiration Notes Olive Grove Portraits: Wear white or earth tones, walk into the olive grove, and use the tree trunks’ lines and light and shadow to capture high-end forest-style shots. Infinity Pool Distant View: Although winter isn’t for swimming, the pool as the foreground with distant mountains and estate buildings as the background makes for a grand composition. Room Terrace: Use the olive groves as a backdrop to shoot breakfast or afternoon tea scenes, full of vacation vibes and lifestyle aesthetics. 💌 Warm Tips Estate activities like tasting classes and cycling require advance booking. Outdoor temperatures are low in winter, but indoor floor heating is sufficient; bring clothes suitable for indoor and outdoor temperature differences. This place is extremely quiet and private, perfect for a duo of besties needing complete relaxation and escape from the hustle. At Anadu Olive Estate, time is measured by the olive tree rings and the sunshine on your plate. It offers a completely different vacation style filled with plant fragrances and earth energy. If you and your bestie love nature, food, and tranquility, this will be your secret garden. Remember to search its name on Trip.com to start this journey through time.

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

Friends, who understands! When you come to Singapore, don’t just rush to the crowded tourist spots! This time in the Lion City, I finally made up for the hidden gems I missed during my 2023 work trips. These three places are all loved by locals, with fewer people and beautiful scenery. You can easily explore one in just half a day without tiring your legs! ✅ Tuas Link Raffles Lighthouse Take the green line to the last stop! Highly recommend going at dusk! I arrived right at the 6:30 PM sunset. That day had very few clouds, and the orange-pink sunset paired with the seaside lighthouse was stunning. When the blue hour came, I couldn’t stop snapping photos on my phone! ⚠️ If you’re staying on the east side, make sure to leave early! The trip is quite far, so don’t rush and miss the sunset! ✅ East Coast Park If you want to experience local life, head straight here! Navigate to Marine Parade MRT Station (TE26)! Don’t just search for the park directly, or you might end up walking forever! Just cross the underpass and you’re at the seaside. Watching the sunrise in the morning or chasing the sunset in the evening is amazing. Many locals cycle and stroll here, enjoying the sea breeze for an hour, totally chill! ⚠️ Some sections were under construction when I visited, so don’t wander aimlessly! Returning the same way to the MRT station is the safest bet! ✅ Botanic Gardens Who doesn’t love a tropical rainforest in the city center! Try to arrive before 10 AM! It’s less crowded and cooler, filled with tropical greenery and the fresh scent of grass. There’s none of the noisy square dancing by older folks, just locals leisurely walking around. It’s so relaxing you won’t want to leave! ⚠️ Free entry! Free entry! Free entry! Important enough to say three times! Remember to wear sunscreen and mosquito repellent so you don’t get bitten! After visiting these places, I really feel emotional. The sights I missed in 2023, I finally caught up on in 2026. Sometimes, traveling doesn’t mean rushing through an itinerary. Taking it slow and exploring places locals love is the most comfortable way to travel~

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Regular cars need to park near Cha Ping Hotel, then hike about 2-5 kilometers up the mountain along the farm road to the left of the hotel. High-clearance SUVs or four-wheel-drive vehicles can try driving directly up the mountain, but the mountain road is narrow and passing is difficult, so drive cautiously. Tour and Photography Guide Start from the parking spot at Cha Ping Hotel and hike up the mountain along the farm road on the left. Along the way, you can enjoy sea of flowers and reservoir views. Recommended photo spots: Small hill on the left side of the reservoir: classic angle to capture the sea of flowers, reservoir, and distant mountains. Backlit path at the mountain top: soft lighting, perfect for portrait silhouettes. Photography tips: It is recommended to wear light-colored, flowing long dresses paired with accessories like straw hats. You can also bring a bubble machine. Accommodation Recommendations 🏨 Core accommodation: Quanzhou Tianhu Cha Ping Hotel (the only hotel inside the scenic area) Room rates (per night): vary greatly between low and peak seasons, reference price 275-515 RMB, please check specific dates yourself. Buffet breakfast: 28 RMB per person. Accommodation deposit: 200 RMB per room. Food Guide Vinegar Duck Blood (Quanzhou specialty) Guilin "Wangcheng Vinegar Duck Blood Old Shop" average cost per person: 40-53 RMB. Set meals offer better value. During peak dining hours (6-7:30 PM), waiting is common. Quanzhou Red Oil Rice Noodles: Local price: 5 RMB (one liang) to 5.5 RMB (two liang), adding a marinated egg costs about 1.5 RMB. Hehua Fish and other farmhouse dishes: Mountain hotel restaurant: prices are reasonable, portions are average. Snack supplies: There are no shops on the mountain, so be sure to buy drinking water and snacks in the county town in advance. One-day Highlights Tour: Depart from Quanzhou County in the morning → Arrive and hike around Cha Ping Reservoir in the morning → Afternoon for photography and relaxation → Return in the evening. Two-day In-depth Tour: Day 1: Arrive at Tianhu Resort Area, visit Cha Ping Reservoir, stay overnight in the mountain area for stargazing. Day 2: Early morning cloud sea sunrise viewing, visit other reservoirs or wind farm landscapes in Tianhu, return in the afternoon.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

This trip to Norway, Bergen left us with a deep impression‼️ This city on Norway’s west coast is surrounded by seven mountains and fjords, known as the gateway to the Norwegian fjords. The old town is colorful, with vibrant wooden houses lining the waterfront at the harbor. All of this makes this rainy city full of poetry and tranquility✨ ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍Bergen The ancient city center of Bergen is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here you can find old streets, medieval houses, and cobblestone roads. You can admire medieval architecture and historical traces, feeling the charm of this ancient city. The old market square is one of the must-see spots and also the port for Royal Caribbean cruises. 📍Bergen Fish Market The Bergen Fish Market is one of Norway’s most famous fish markets. Here you can taste fresh seafood and delicious fish soup. The colorful wooden houses by the water in the market are very beautiful. This is one of Bergen’s most distinctive attractions and worth a visit. 📍Bryggen Museum The Bryggen Museum complex is one of Bergen’s most famous attractions, including 18 museums and galleries. It houses many precious historical artifacts and artworks. Here you can deeply learn about Norway’s history and culture. There are medieval churches, museums, and galleries, making it an excellent place to understand Norwegian history and culture. 📍Mount Fløyen Mount Fløyen is one of Bergen’s highest peaks and one of the best spots to overlook the entire city. Here you can enjoy magnificent fjord views and panoramic cityscapes. You can also take a cable car to the summit to admire the stunning scenery. It’s also a paradise for hiking enthusiasts, with many trails to choose from. 📍Bergen Cathedral A landmark building in Norway’s second-largest city, Bergen, this Gothic cathedral has been rebuilt multiple times after fires. Its green roof and white walls stand out prominently in the city. Built in the 12th century, this Gothic cathedral is an important symbol of Bergen’s history and religious culture. 🍽️【Restaurant Recommendations】 🔸Bryggeloftet & Stuene: 🌟 4.5 Bergen’s oldest restaurant with an elegant dining atmosphere, serving authentic Bergen cuisine. 🔸Egon Kjottbasaren: 🌟 4.1 A chain restaurant offering great value with pasta, pizza, and burgers. Highly recommend the cod fillet and delicious Norwegian fish soup! 🔸Fjåk Chocolate Shop & Café: 🌟 4.8 A chocolate shop in the city center. Having a warm cup of hot chocolate here in winter is pure happiness~ ⛅️【Weather & Clothing】 🔹Raincoat is a must: Bergen rains over 200 days a year, so its nickname “Rain City” is well deserved. Regardless of the weather forecast, always bring a raincoat or umbrella. A waterproof jacket is very practical here. 🔹Keep warm: Even in summer, the wind on the mountain tops and by the sea is strong with noticeable temperature differences. It’s recommended to dress in layers for easy adjustment. If you take a fjord cruise, remember to bring a hat, scarf, and gloves as it can get very cold. 💡【Accommodation & Transportation】 ▪️Accommodation choice: It’s recommended to stay near the harbor, such as next to Bryggen Wharf, making it very convenient to reach the old town, fish market, and cable car station by foot. ▪️Transportation: Most city attractions are within walking distance since the city center is smaller than expected. For longer trips, you can use Google Maps or the Vy App (covering Bergen and Oslo areas) for navigation and ticket purchase. A Nordic secret more magical than a fairy tale 🇳🇴 Bergen — The colorful kingdom painted by Hayao Miyazaki Bergen is not only the gateway to the Norwegian fjords But also a key center of Norwegian culture and history🏕️

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

In Grindelwald, I truly experienced what it means to be stunningly beautiful 🌿 There is no city noise or hustle here, only tranquility and beauty~ It feels as if everything has been paused, enjoying this rare leisurely time ✨ 🌿 A little secret first “If there were a sequel to ‘Heidi and Grandpa,’ the filming location would definitely still be here.” The moment the train emerges from the tunnel—the snowy mountains unfold like a curtain, the grassy slopes layer upon layer, wooden houses scattered like chocolate chips, and even the cowbells sound like a 3D surround healing soundtrack. 🕰️ How does time pass here? 🔹 06:30 Morning mist dyes the pine needles silver, the first ray of sunlight falls on the north face of the Eiger, and the hillside instantly turns into golden terraces. 🔹 11:00 Cloud shadows slowly crawl over the green carpet, cows lower their heads to graze, swishing their tails, and time sways along. 🔹 19:30 The sunset paints the wooden window frames rose-colored, smoke drifts from chimneys with the scent of firewood—like the smell of grandma’s house from childhood memories. 🔹 22:00 Lights go out one by one, the Milky Way rises behind the snowy mountains, the hillside turns into piano keys, and the stars are dancing notes. ✅【Must-Visit Attractions】 📍 Dreamy Hillside (Grindelwald Grund) This is Grindelwald’s most iconic landscape, with traditional wooden houses and grazing cattle and sheep on the green meadows nearby, and the magnificent snowy views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks in the distance, as if stepping into a fairy tale world. 📍 Jungfrau Take the cogwheel train from Grindelwald to the summit (ticket price 162 CHF/second class), transfer at Kleine Scheidegg, and reach Europe’s highest train station (3454 meters)! The Ice Palace at the top and the Sphinx Observatory overlook the Aletsch Glacier, leaving you speechless with awe. 📍 First Mountain Take the cable car directly to First Mountain, an excellent way to experience the Alpine scenery. 📍 Viewing Platform The viewing platform at the top of First offers a wide view, allowing close-up sights of the north face of the Eiger and the Schreckhorn. 📍 Cliff Walk From the cable car station, the First Cliff Walk takes about 20 minutes to complete. The viewing platform at the end extends into the air, offering breathtaking views. 📍 Mountain Karting Drive a kart from Schreckfeld station down to Bort station. It’s thrilling and fun, but queues can be long during peak season, so allow plenty of time. 🖼️【Recommended Hiking Routes】 🟡 Bort Downhill Hike: Walk from Bort cable car station down to Grindelwald town, about 4-5 km one way, moderate difficulty. Along the way, enjoy open grassy slopes, woods, and wooden houses—a great choice to experience the town’s pastoral charm. 🟡 Town to Bort Cable Car Station: This route is about 5 km one way with a total ascent of 450 meters, offering panoramic views of the valley. The autumn colors are especially stunning. 🏡【Accommodation Recommendations】 1️⃣ Best Value: Jugendherberge Grindelwald (Youth Hostel): Around ¥300 per person, balcony facing the Eiger! 2️⃣ Scenic Highlight: Derby Swiss Quality Hotel: Next to the train station, three-star, rooms with windows opening to the “Dreamy Hillside,” includes sauna + 3 restaurants. 3️⃣ Light Luxury Experience: Romantik Hotel Schweizerhof: Five-star wooden chalet hotel, cheese fondue with snowy mountain sunset, full of atmosphere! 💡【Practical Tips】 ▪️ Transportation: Take the train from Interlaken East Station about 30 minutes directly to Grindelwald. It’s recommended to sit on the right side by the window for better scenery concentration. ▪️ Accommodation: If you want to get up early for activities or sunrise, it’s best to stay in the town center for convenience. ▪️ Sun Protection: The high-altitude UV rays are very strong. Even on cloudy days or indoors, use SPF50+ sunscreen and reapply regularly. ▪️ Tickets: It’s recommended to book tickets for the First cable car and some activities (like karting) in advance on the official website, especially during peak season. ▪️ Gear: Comfortable, non-slip shoes are a must. Mountain weather is changeable, so bring warm jackets and rain gear. This trip to Grindelwald has brought new expectations for life. Life doesn’t always have to be grand and dramatic; sometimes, a quiet corner and a beautiful view can bring immense happiness. Just like the small houses and forests in Grindelwald, simple yet full of warmth and healing. 💖

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money. I’d recommend it to both leisure and business travelers, especially those who value transit convenience and comfort. Staying in this area means you can get anywhere within 15 minutes!

For budget-conscious travelers in Singapore, finding a gem that balances cost with quality can be a challenge, but the Owen Hotel at Little India effortlessly hits that sweet spot. While its exterior presents as a big hotel, the true value lies within, where guests are consistently greeted with a surprising level of comfort, remarkable quietness, and impeccable cleanliness—a rare trifecta for affordable accommodations. The standout feature, however, is its unbeatable location, which I would confidently rate a perfect 5/5. The hotel’s proximity to Farrer Park MRT station is almost unparalleled, as a leisurely walk of less than two minutes places you directly at the train entrance, making the entire city effortlessly accessible. This seamless connectivity allows you to explore Singapore's vibrant attractions without the hassle of long commutes, ensuring you save both time and money. Whether you are a solo backpacker or a family looking to stretch your dollar, the Owen Hotel provides a serene sanctuary that proves you don't have to sacrifice quality for an affordable price in this bustling city.

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Vacationing at Qingcheng Mountain and Dujiangyan, I discovered a hidden gem hotel that takes New Chinese aesthetics to the extreme! Qingcheng Songpin truly fulfilled all my imaginations of a mountain forest getaway—private hot spring villas, Song-style courtyards, butler service, and after staying here, I didn’t want to leave. The location is absolutely perfect! It’s right in the core area of Dujiangyan Sunac Cultural Tourism City, only about 4 kilometers from the Dujiangyan Scenic Area, just a 10-minute drive. Qingcheng Mountain Scenic Area is only 16 kilometers away, about a 20-minute drive. After sightseeing, it’s super convenient to return to the hotel for a hot spring soak. Next door is Sunac Snow World and Sunac Mall—just a few minutes’ walk for skiing or shopping. The phrase “bustling outside, secluded inside” perfectly describes this place~ The moment you enter the hotel, you’re struck by the masterful New Chinese design! The overall style is a fusion of “Song Dynasty + Western Sichuan residences.” The standalone villas with white walls and dark tiles are nestled among lush forests and bamboo groves, with imposing dark gray tile sloped roofs. The lobby is stunning, featuring grand black Shen-style lacquered pillars, and a huge Dongyang wood carving of the “Panorama of Qingcheng Mountain” hanging on the wall. Even the registration area replicates the blue-green landscape style of the “A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains” painting, with every detail exuding Song Dynasty elegance. The courtyard has winding bridges and flowing water, bamboo paths leading to quiet spots, ubiquitous Shu brocade decorations, birdcage lamps, and every few steps you find a Song painting—every photo is a masterpiece. The hot spring villa we booked was absolutely amazing! A standalone courtyard with a private hot spring, surrounded by lush greenery for maximum privacy. The room features a large horizontal hall design with a spacious layout, natural wood furniture paired with Shu brocade decorations—elegant and luxurious without feeling cramped. My favorite is the private hot spring pool in the courtyard, kept at a constant temperature 24/7, with options for rose, osmanthus, or herbal packs. Soaking in the warm water while gazing at the green mountain forest outside the window, and looking up at the starry sky at night, all fatigue instantly melts away. The bedding is soft and cozy, soundproofing is excellent, and waking up to birdsong in the morning is so healing~ No worries about dining! The hotel has a dedicated Song Banquet Chinese restaurant serving authentic Sichuan cuisine, as well as Cantonese and Huaiyang dishes, all very authentic. Breakfast is a buffet with a wide variety, including handmade yogurt, pickled cabbage beef noodles, matsutake mushroom meat buns—all delicious, plus freshly ground soy milk. You’ll be full and ready to go out for the day. If you don’t want to go far, lunch and dinner at the hotel are great too, with fresh ingredients and flavors that suit the palate. You must try the travel photography service! The hotel partners with a Hanfu photo studio, so you don’t need to bring your own clothes—just pick from their selection. There are professional stylists for makeup and hair, and patient photographers who guide you on poses. The hotel’s gardens and courtyards serve as natural backdrops, creating photos full of atmosphere. They even give you a few photos as gifts—perfect for getting tons of likes on social media. The service is truly top-notch! Full butler service throughout your stay, with WeChat communication before arrival to discuss your needs. Upon arrival, there’s a dedicated porter to help with luggage, and shuttle cars are available in the villa area with super fast response. Families with kids get prepared children’s bathrobes, toothbrushes, and toys in advance. Pet-friendly rooms can be reserved. Any request sent via WeChat gets a quick response—thoughtful without being intrusive, making the stay incredibly relaxing~ Transportation is super convenient! Free parking and charging spots for electric vehicles are available for self-driving guests, so no parking worries. It’s only 5.3 kilometers to Yingbin Road Station and 3.5 kilometers to Dujiangyan Station, making high-speed rail access easy. It’s a 1.5-hour drive from downtown Chengdu, and the hotel can help arrange taxis and book scenic area tickets. Whether traveling solo or with family, it’s very hassle-free. Staying here is truly a joy! Spend the day exploring Dujiangyan and Qingcheng Mountain, ski and shop in the afternoon, soak in the private hot springs at night, take ancient-style photos, and enjoy food, drink, and entertainment all in one place. Perfect for couples, friends, or family trips—definitely staying here again next time~ 🏨 Chengdu Qingcheng Songpin Hotel [RoundNails] No. 6 Zhizhen Road, Dujiangyan

When visiting Huangguoshu Waterfall, are you still staying at the noisy entrance of the scenic area? This time, my bestie and I discovered the ultimate solution—the Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse! It’s located in a Bouyei ethnic village near the waterfall, facing the canyon directly. Some rooms even offer direct views of the waterfall, truly fulfilling the dream of "sleeping with the waterfall at your pillow." 🌊 A unique waterfall viewing perspective: We stayed in the "Cliff View Room," with a balcony facing the deep valley and distant mountains. Although you can’t see the main Huangguoshu Waterfall directly (it requires a certain angle), you can see other cascading waterfalls in the canyon and the rushing Baishui River. In the early morning, you’re awakened by birdsong and the faint sound of water in the valley. Opening the window, the moist, fresh air rushes in, surrounded by lush greenery. This feeling of being embraced by nature is more healing than any alarm clock. The guesthouse also has a huge viewing platform with unbeatable views, perfect for watching the sunrise and sea of clouds. 🏡 Comfortable living in the mountains and fields: The guesthouse features a simple modern design blended with local Bouyei architectural elements, such as stone exterior walls. The rooms are spacious and bright, equipped with floor heating, smart toilets, and premium bedding. The biggest surprise is the bathtub facing the mountain view, allowing you to enjoy the scenery while soaking. The public areas include a book bar, tea room, and swimming pool (open in summer), so you can relax all day without even stepping outside. 🥘 Authentic Guizhou flavors and rural delights: The meals are authentic Guizhou cuisine, with many ingredients sourced from the guesthouse’s own garden or local farmers. We enjoyed sour soup fish, stir-fried cured meat with houttuynia, and wild vegetable eggs, all very authentic. The rice noodles at breakfast were unforgettable. After meals, you can stroll through the vegetable garden and experience the joy of picking (seasonal). 🚶‍♀️ Recommended off-the-beaten-path routes: Waterfall group exploration: Have the guesthouse manager drop you off at the Huangguoshu Scenic Area entrance, then visit in the order of "Doupotang → Tianxing Bridge (lower section) → Main Waterfall" to avoid most tour groups. Bouyei village stroll: The village where the guesthouse is located is very original and natural. You can take a walk, chat with villagers, and see the ancient stone houses. Baling River Bridge: A short drive away is this super engineering marvel, where you can try bungee jumping, high-altitude swings, and other extreme sports, or simply admire its grandeur from below. Huangguoshu Yaojia·Wangpu Guesthouse perfectly solves the conflict between "getting close to nature" and "comfortable accommodation." It allows you to conveniently visit a world-class attraction while returning to the tranquility of the mountains and fields. With my bestie here, hiking to see waterfalls by day and gathering around the fire at night, it was a perfect holiday full of energy and wild charm.

Kyoto travel is not just about Kiyomizu-dera, Fushimi Inari Taisha, and Kinkaku-ji... If you prefer quiet and off-the-beaten-path spots, you must visit Kibune Shrine hidden in the mountains. · 🚃 Transportation Take the subway from Kyoto Station to Demachiyanagi Station ➡️ transfer at Demachiyanagi Station to the Eizan Electric Railway (towards Kurama) and get off at Kibuneguchi Station (35 minutes, 470 yen) ➡️ take a bus from Kibuneguchi to Kibune Shrine (5 minutes, 200 yen). ⏰ The last bus from Kibune Shrine to Kibuneguchi is at 18:25 (extended to 19:00 in summer). If you miss it, you can walk down the mountain (about 20 minutes; walking up takes about 20-30 minutes). · 🍁 From mid to late November to early December is the season when the autumn leaves at Kibune Shrine are very beautiful. There are many hiking and walking trails nearby, with stunning foliage and many waterfalls along the mountain streams. The crowds are not too large, making it a must-see. · 📷 Photo Tips ✅ The vermilion lantern stone steps at the entrance are very photogenic. Before 9 AM, there are almost no visitors; the morning is relatively quiet, but the afternoon and evening see many tourists. ✅ After 6 PM in summer, there is a special illumination 💡 with blue twilight and warm red lanterns, creating a dreamy, anime-like atmosphere perfect for photos. ✅ Weather doesn’t affect photo opportunities much here; personally, I find rainy days more atmospheric, and snow would be even more magical. · ⭐️ Travel Tips 1️⃣ Kibune is in the remote mountain outskirts, about 1 to 1.5 hours from central Kyoto. 2️⃣ ⛩️ It’s small and can be explored in less than half an hour. 3️⃣ The water fortune-telling here is famous: for 100 yen, you get a blank fortune slip (queue required), then dip it in the sacred water and the text appears, which is quite fun. 4️⃣ The flowing water somen noodles are very popular here. If you have time, definitely try them. They are usually served by the water, making it a cool and pleasant summer escape.
