(Note: All rights reserved. Pictures and content should not be reprinted or syndicated without permission from annalyn.net) On my birthday week, we find ourselves on a road trip to the great North. The seven hour or so tour bus ride was quite arduous, but nothing beats the excitement of this region which has been on my wishlist for some time now (having spent time here just briefly before, when I was younger). Ilocos Norte will always be known as the bailiwick of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos (now, it's their children who have taken over). But apart from its ... Continue Reading...
Why people like travelling to China
(Note: Guest post by Mr. Nick Steele) Photo credit: Viking River Cruises website China is consistently among the most popular tourist destinations and, every year, tourists flock to this amazing country on land tours and cruises.

Sun Moon Lake in Nantou County was particularly beautiful and as charming as its name. I would recommend it for couples taking their honeymoon, or people just wanting some peace and quiet.
