CHINA FOLK CULTURE VILLAGE, SHENZHEN, CHINA
|
|
|
When I was in Hong Kong, I also cross over to China by train to the city of Shenzhen. It is a modern city, just like Beijing. Among the interesting attraction I visited was China Folk Culture Village and Splendid China Miniature Spot. But, I prefer China Folk Culture Village, just like Mini Malaysia Melaka.

IT"S A SMALL WORLD
|
|
At Hong Kong Disneyland, I also visited their new attraction which was open to the public on the 28 April, 2008. IT'S A SMALL WORLD. I am delighted to see hundreds of colorful dolls and toys representing cultures around the globe including 38 Disney Characters. The background music is a sing along to one of the most popular songs ever made - "it's a small world (afterall)", being played in 9 different languages throughtout the attractions.
A must attraction to visit if you visit HK Disneyland.

HONG KONG DISNEYLAND
|
|
From 25 May to 29 May, 2008, I was in Hong Kong. I also went to Shenzen, China. In Hong Kong I took the opportunity to visit Hong Kong Disneyland, the fifth and smallest Disneyland in the world. The park currently features four theme lands similiar to those at other Disneyland parks, Main Street USA, Adventureland, Fantasyland and Tomorrowland. The park is missing a classic land, Frontierland.
In total, there are currently 27 listed attractions in Hong Kong Disneyland I visited most of the attractions and shows. I did have a wonderful time.

PERTH 20080427
|
|
I went to Perth, Western Australia on the 27th April to 1st May, 2008. This is my first trip there and it was wonderful. Perth is a very nice, clean city , a vibrant and modern capital that was first settled in June 1829 and now has a population of around 1.4 million. What I like when I was there was the beautiful beaches, great food and lots of friendly welcoming people. I like Hays Street and Murray Street. My group and I, met the Yang DiPertuan Agung, yes, the King of Malaysia there at Murray Street. I got the oppoutunity to shake his Majesty hands but was unable to take a photo with him because the bodyguards do not permit me to do so.
I also went for river cruise down Swan River on Captain Cook Cruise and ended up at Fremeantle which has its very own character and "feel".
I love the streets of Fremantle. I did a quick visit there again by Fremantle Line Train and took many photos of picturesque old buildings. I went around Fremantle by CAT, it is a free bus service.
While in Perth, I visit Caversham Wildlife Park and came close with koalas, wombats, devils, kangaroos, dingo, flying foxes, emus and I also watch sheep dogs steering the sheep to where they want them to go and also a demostration on shearing. Also went to Kings Park a Botanic Garden, Swan Bells Tower, a very unique attraction, the Perth Mint, a Kiwi Fruit Farm at Willow Springs.
My group have two and free and easy days in Perth, so I took them on CAT Bus Ride. CAT stands for Central Area Transit. This is a free bus service in Perth City. All CAT buses are colour coded. Red CAT travel east/west in the CBD area, Blue CAT travel north/south in the CBD area and Yellow CAT, travel east Perth to West Perth. Each bus includes an audio recording of service time. We just have to press the info button at the stop to find out when the next bus is due to arrive. Its so easy and the bus drivers are so friendly and helpful. I wish, Malaysian bus drivers have this type of attitude.
I hope to visit Perth again and see other attractions which I did not manage to visit like the Perth Zoo, the Pinnacle, Perth and Fremantle many Museums.
I took many photos and here are some selected photos I want to share with you.

Taming Sari Tower Melaka
|
|
This is another modern man-made artifical tourist attraction in Melaka. From far it looks like a sore thumb and really spoils the landscape of historic Melaka. I will not write in detail about this attraction which I greatly disapprove  .
The tower is 110 meter high and have a capacity of 80 passengers. The ride duration is 7 minutes only, I repeat 7 minutes only  . And it cost RM20.00 per person for foreigner  and RM10.00 per person for Malaysian citizen (got to show your Mycard to the ticket counter person).
From a height of 80 meters, we could have a view of Melaka Town of 5 km.
