The Sydney Opera House, Australia

You can’t think Australia and not think of its most recognizable monument, the Sydney Opera House. The white building has become synonymous with the culture of the continent, along with kangaroos, koalas and surfers. What makes this monument so special, and is it worth a journey inside instead of a notable photograph of its exterior when passing though Sydney?

The Sydney Opera House may have opera in its name, but it is not exclusively dedicated to those types of performances. It’s home to diverse events including music, dance, theater, magic, comedy, education and all forms of art.

Its current lineup of events include Antidote, a thought-provoking collection on world politics today; The Unbelievables, an extravaganza of circus and magic; Badu Gili, a dazzling water and light show; Dinner, a hilariously dark comedy show; and more.

The Opera House isn’t all about shows and entertainment, they’ve created learning experiences and digital classrooms to invest in education and the future of youth. Its website also provides a wealth of resources to learn and explore the history of the Opera House and its events and exhibitions.

It dedicates itself to charity and the spread of knowledge to Australia and its many visitors. On your next visit to Sydney, take home more than just a pretty picture and experience the Sydney Opera House for yourself.

Meet 5 Women Shaping the Brixen/South Tyrol Travel Experience

Although a destination’s terrain, cuisine and cultural attributes always draw travelers in, it is often the people they meet that make the trip an enduring memory rather than a box to be checked off. It’s a job responsibility that people working around the Plose and adjoining town of Brixen (in Italy’s Trentino-Alto Adige region) take seriously. This is even more true for five women dedicated to introducing visitors to new aspects of the time-honored ski, leisure and hiking mountain destination in the Dolomites.

Mindfulness City in Kingdom of Bhutan Unveiled as Future Economic Hub

In front of an audience of 30,000 Kingdom of Bhutan residents and officials, His Majesty King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck presented his vision for a new economic hub in Bhutan. Located between India to the south and China to the north, Bhutan is one of the most beautiful destinations in the world. Bhutan came late to global tourism. It opened its borders to international visitors in 1974 and, while tourism definitely increased, residents are enduring “light” rush-hour traffic in Thimphu, its capital city, as the only Asian capital without traffic lights.

Amansara Review

It was more than a car journey; it was a transition between worlds. At our first hotel in Siem Reap, huge coaches constantly pulled up outside the lobby to deposit or receive international tour groups; we departed in very different style, in a 1965 black Mercedes limousine once owned by King Sihanouk. The mundanities of mass tourism were left behind. We progressed through the chaotic Cambodian streets in regal comfort and soon arrived at a solid gate.
