Best Place to live

This review based on msn so maybe some of you interested to live and work there or maybe a place to live after retirement or just make as your 2nd home...review and picture courtesy of MSN

Vienna is one of Europe's most vibrant urban spaces. Few cities in the world slide so effortlessly between the past and the present with Vienna's old-fashioned imperial buildings rubbing shoulders so amicably with the new MuseumsQuartier cultural hub.

Synonymous with worldwide banking, Zurich has an economic and cultural importance that belies its unassuming size. Blessed with blissfully clean air, the stunning Lake Zürich and the Altstadt district with its fine boutiques and restaurants, it is little wonder the locals are so contented.


Surrounded by the ocean and sitting in the shadow of majestic mountains, Vancouver is a shiny, modern North American metropolis infused with a lighthearted candour. Vancouverites mainly live for the outdoors and nowhere is better for discovering British Columbia's awesome wilderness.

 Auckland may not be New Zealand's capital but it is the country's largest city. From the pulsating waterfront, up through the busy Downtown district and into the vastly distinct suburbs and the glorious beaches, there isn't an inch of the city that isn't thriving with energy.


Frankfurt am Main, is the dynamic and international financial and trade fair city with the most imposing skyline in Germany. The dynamic European city is a global village, a melting pot of cultures, languages and lifestyles.

How bout it do you considering it well if you can afford to live there at least pay a visit...it might be worthwhile for your holiday.

The Romance City

December the month of holidays is just around the corner for those planning the have a lovely or romantic holidays maybe Kunming in China might be a good place to visit...info and pictures courtesy of msn and mastraveller . These are some reason why you should visit Kunming

Eighty-five kilometers east of Kunming lies the magical ‘First Wonder of the World’, Stone Forest, Shilin. Towering limestone formations left behind from more than 270 million years ago form this monstrous masterpiece of nature, and in the sixth lunar month, the Torch Festival is celebrated here with folk dances and wrestling competitions.

2.      A temple like no other
The Yuantong Temple, built in the 9th Century is the most famous Buddhist centre in the Yunnan province. In the 1950s, it played host to a very unique ceremony – the handing over of Buddha’s tooth! Other notable holy houses include: Bamboo (Qiongzhu) Temple on Yu'an Mountain, Huating Temple in Western Hills and Black Dragon Pool Temple in Longquan Hill.

According to local folklore the mountains around the Dianchi Lake form the silhouette of a sleeping woman whose grief and tears over the loss of a loved one pooled into the water below. It’s ancient love at its finest!
Sixteen kilometers west of Kunming, the Dragon Gate Temple at the Dragon Golden Mountain boasts the most stunning view of the lake and surrounding mountains that’ll steal your heart.
