Aerospace Bristol, England Bristol, is the home of Concorde. The supersonic passenger jet was largely developed here, and the UK assembly line was located here and all UK Concordes made their maiden flight from the city’s runway – so the last Concorde ever to be built takes pride of place.

Located in southwest Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous region, northwest China, Taklamakan desert is bounded by the Kunlun mountains to the south, the Pamir mountains and Tian Shan to the west and north, and the Gobi desert to the east, also known as “Place of No Return”, more commonly interpreted as “once you get in, you’ll never get out” or similar. The Taklamakan Desert has an area of 337,000 km 2  (130,000 sq mi), making it slightly smaller than Germany, and includes the Tarim Basin, which is 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) long and 400 kilometres (250 mi) wide. It is the world’s second largest shifting sand desert with about 85% made up of shifting sand dunes ranking 16th in size in a ranking of the world’s largest deserts . Because it lies in the rain shadow of the Himalayas, Taklamakan is a paradigmatic cold desert climate. Given its relative proximity with the cold to frigid air masses in Siberia...

Victoria Falls: Smoke that Thunders                                              Victoria Falls Victoria Falls is a town in the western portion of Zimbabwe, across the border from Livingstone, Zambia, and near Botswana. The town lies immediately next to the falls, and they are the major attraction, but this popular tourist destination offers both adventure seekers and sightseers plenty of opportunities for a longer stay. No doubt about it,  Victoria Falls,   twice as tall as  Niagara Falls,  and several times longer,   also known as  Mosi-oa-Tunya  (meaning “The Smoke That Thunders”) is one of the most amazing sights in the world. The Falls have the largest sheet of water for any fall in the world, although not the highest, widest or greatest volume of water, is a sight not to be missed. It to...

  Bucket-List:   European Alps Hiking We, the people to whom travel and hiking comes from the heart are well known of the fact that the European Alps offers a plethora of walks. But we fail to plan often being confused - where to start? This was a subject I was going through for some times and finally after hard research over the topic, I am here to pen down the outcome: The Ultimate Hikers Bucket List, as you can name it, off course.   Matterhorn Circuit In my opinion this circuit, perhaps should be high on the bucket list of any keen walker. Hiking around the Cervin, perhaps the most recognised peak in the Alps and criss -crossing between Italy and Switzerland, this trek circuit is a true walker’s delight with steep ascents,  high pass crossings, besides spectacular views and isolated sections of trails that makes one feel like out there on your own. Chamonix to Zermatt  This route in between Chamonix ( Mont Blanch ) and Zermatt (...
