Places to go in Amsterdam
Here’s three activities I did when visiting Amsterdam
• Keykenhof tulip gardens - A wonderful place to visit in the spring when the flowers are blooming, if walking around the sculpted gardens isn’t for you, you can also hire bikes or a boat and go on a tour around the actual flower fields
• Hortus Botanicus - This botanical garden has a wide variety of plants and lets you discover butterflies up close. It has a nice cafe and is situated right on a canal making it a great place for lunch
Zuid-Kennermerland - After short train ride to Haarlem and then renting bikes, we cycled to the national park that’s located on the coast of the Netherlands. There’s so many paths to discover here, and we ended up over the dunes and on the beach, after grabbing a snack from the cafe here. It’s a safe easy place to cycle to and would be great for a family

Exploring Hokkaido's Floral Wonderland and the Northernmost Point in Japan
In July 2023, my family embarked on an unforgettable journey to Hokkaido, Japan's northernmost island. With my mum, sister, and wife by my side, we discovered that Hokkaido's allure extends far beyond its famed winter landscapes.
Our adventure began in Sapporo, a city known for its culinary delights. We savored the exquisite flavors of miso ramen, a local specialty that left us craving for more. The comfortable weather added to the city's charm as we explored its vibrant streets.
A highlight of our trip was visiting Furano, renowned for its stunning flower parks. We were fortunate to witness the lavenders in full bloom, transforming the landscape into a sea of enchanting purple. At Farm Tomita, Shikisai Hill, and Hinode Park, we immersed ourselves in the breathtaking scenes, capturing the beauty of the colorful blooms. An unforgettable experience awaited us at Hinode Park, where we walked amidst illuminated lavenders, creating a magical spectacle that will forever remain etched in our memories.
Our journey took us to the picturesque town of Biei, where we discovered the mesmerizing Shirogane Blue Pond. The tranquil waters reflected a captivating shade of blue, giving the impression of a perfectly edited photograph. The serenity of the pond's surroundings left us in awe, allowing us to appreciate the wonders of nature.
Driving to Wakkanai, the northernmost point of Japan, was another highlight of our Hokkaido adventure. Although the weather obscured our view of Russia, the joyous moments spent together as a family were immeasurable. The scenic routes and vast landscapes added to the memorable experience, creating a sense of togetherness and appreciation for the beauty that surrounded us.
As we made our way back to Sapporo, we passed through Hokuryu Sunflower Village. Despite the sunflowers not being in full bloom, their vibrant presence still amazed us, adding a touch of brightness to the landscape.
Our Hokkaido adventure reminded us that the island is not limited to its winter charms. From the delightful cuisine of Sapporo to the captivating lavender fields of Furano, the ethereal beauty of the Shirogane Blue Pond, and the joyous family moments during our journey to Wakkanai, each experience left an indelible mark on our hearts. Hokkaido revealed its true essence, captivating us with its natural splendor and creating cherished memories that will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

Spring in Yumeiren Square 💐🌷🌼
📍Xinxing North Street and Binhai Middle Road
Intersection South 150 Meters, Laishan, Yantai, Shandong China.
These photos were taken back in Spring 2021. This place is one of the few indelible places in my heart as it gave colors to our lives during Covid Times in China. It’s a beautiful nostalgia for our dull life back then. This park is filled with tulips so it’s best to visit it in Spring. This place also offers a picturesque place for picnic.

Do NOT miss: Dubai Miracle Garden 🌸🌼
#timetotravel
Visiting Dubai Miracle Garden was like entering a realm where nature and imagination danced hand in hand. The garden's vibrant floral displays, meticulously arranged into intricate patterns and sculptures, were a breathtaking sight. Walking through arches adorned with a riot of colors, I felt like a character in a fairytale. The Butterfly Garden, a sanctuary of delicate beauty, allowed me to connect with these enchanting creatures. The scent of blooming flowers filled the air, creating a sensory wonderland. Dubai Miracle Garden wasn't just a garden; it was a canvas painted with botanical artistry, a celebration of creativity and the awe-inspiring possibilities of landscaping. It left me with a sense of wonder, a reminder that even in the desert, nature can weave magic.

📌"Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden"中国科学院西双版纳热带植物园
📍Address: Yunnan, Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture, Mengla County, 勐仑镇
Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) is a comprehensive research institution engaged in scientific research, species preservation, science communication, science and technology development, and a well-known scenic spot as well. From diverse plants, trees, and flowers, I felt like I was in a wonderland surrounded by green nature.
It is one of the most impressive botanical gardens in the world and features over 12,000 species of plants in its 35 different garden habitats.
It takes you days to visit all XTBG because of the many gardens; personally, half of the first day I visited the Flower Garden featured exotic and indigenous flowers, approximately 280 species in all.
During July and August, the giant royal water lily, or king lotus, will be the most eye-catching plant.

#mysgmemories #singapore #botanic #flowerlover #orchid #flowers #thingstodo

Pardon, which Garden? Secret Parisian beauty!
The #Jardindeluxembourg is one of the most gorgeous and underrated parts of #paris. Jardin translates to garden in French.
Originally designed and built in the early 1600’s, this enormous green paradise is great for any travelers who want to escape the busy crowds of Paris. Within, you’ll find wonderful #statues, #fountains, and #flowers.
Chairs are littered all over, as this is truly a place for everyday Parisians and more relaxed travelers to stop and admire what is around them.
A lake is used for tiny toy sail boats that are great for kids, and playgrounds are scattered throughout so that you can have fun here for a few hours with kids without getting bored.
However, the garden is gigantic, so it isn’t at all difficult to find quiet spots for playing chess, reading, or just relaxing.
Wonderfully manicured lawns are everywhere, shaded by trees that are home to singing birds.
Additionally, you’ll find a small replica of the #statueofliberty.
And the best part? Entry is entirely #free.
This place is perfect for families that want to sit and relax after walking up and down the #eiffeltower, or for families that want games to keep their children busy.
Is is also perfect for seasoned travelers and couples who are looking to spread out a blanket and slow things down.
You can stroll through it in 20 minutes or spend several hours there. I would highly recommend visiting when you’re in Paris!
Big park
I was recommended to make a trip to the botanical garden when I was visiting Xiamen for the first time and I absolutely loved it. I spent a few hours walking around and could not cover everything. Beautiful flowers and palm trees.
You can actually get some good exercise climbing to the top of the mountain but there are also the option to take the shuttle bus.
The most popular place to take pictures are by the cactuses. They are super cool.

Busan is ready for world expo 2030🔥
This is the famous Haeundae beach and the world expo garden in Busan💙
The world expo graden is constructed so damn beautifully! This is like a passage with walking trails on both sides and in between this majestic garden. It starts with the 7 heart-shaped flower rings, then parallel flower blocks with a very wide variety of different species of flowers, then a big flower wheel, a heart made with grass and flowers on the ground and finally the Busan expo logo.
There were some flowers which I have never seen, they looked so pretty and unique🤩
After crossing the garden, you will reach the Haeundae beach! Its a beautiful and clean beach, a really big one surrounded by high rise buildings. We managed to see the sunset and enjoy the view, the waves, the night lighting and the relaxing atmosphere! There are water sports available as well here including but not limited to kayaking, surfing, motor boats, banana boats, etc
At Haeundae beach you will find different cuisine restaurants like Indian, Brazilian, Arabic, Mexican, Italian, Korean (obviously) and many more!

Colorful roses to you, my lady! 🌹
Catherine Park in Gulou is very famous for it’s seasonal growth of roses in multiple colors. The whole area smells amazing with the rose blossoms and becomes a family destination in the evenings! 🌹
Be careful when you’re taking photos because the thorns could be quite vicious. But overall, the location is great for photography.

Location: 📍 Where the Flowers Bloom
The Miracle Garden was absolutely a Wonderful sight to see on my Holiday to Dubai! Throughout the tour, you could smell beautiful flowers and the many different exhibits were also very beautiful and well taken care of. I truly enjoyed this experience! The only downside I would say is there is a market inside of the Garden and many locals were pretty much harassing you to purchase goods from them. I didn't particularly care for that too much. Otherwise, it was such a great experience and I’m so glad I went!

Welcome to The Butterfly World!
Beijing International Flower Port doesn't only offer flowers but butterflies too. This place is a set of natural science, cultural tourism, leisure and entertainment in one to express the romantic encounter between butterflies and flowers. Spring is the most comfortable environment for you to be able to see beautiful flowers. The butterfly culture exhibition in the museum shows the close relationship between butterflies and human life. The live butterfly Exhibition allows visitors to experience the beautiful scenery of butterflies flying among flowers and grass. It is definitely good to take pictures and stroll around. Children will definitely enjoy this and can discuss about the different kinds of butterflies. It's a good experience for the children. I think this is ideal for a family to visit.
