Most Singaporeans can no longer remember a time without the MRT. It has become a very indispensable way to get from one end of Singapore to another, and it is particularly useful for getting to downtown areas such as Orchard Road or the Central Business District, where traffic can be heavy. LRT - More recently, the Light Rapid Transit (LRT) system was also added to the existing train network. Unlike the MRT, the LRT are intra-town loop services – passengers switch from the MRT to the LRT to get to other parts of the town. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1546565945415-OMGOWD5XX1TT6KLU7LG8/Carrot+Cake+%28Chai+Tow+Kway%29.jpg The Blog - 24 Hours In Singapore Carrot Cake (Chai Tow Kway) - Also known as "fried carrot cake" or simply "carrot cake" in Southeast Asian countries.

Despite its name, there is in fact no tea in the dish itself; the name refers to a strong oolong Chinese tea which is usually served alongside the soup in the belief that it dilutes or dissolves the copious amount of fat consumed in this pork-laden dish. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1546565770132-7EPA2X87FIR3RFGI6PB1/Hooked-On-Heads.png The Blog - 24 Hours In Singapore Fish Head Curry - Fish head curry is a dish in Singaporean and Malaysian cuisine with Indian and Chinese origins.

48 Hours In Chengdu, China Dan Dan Noodles (dan dan mian 担担面) – If you’re looking for cheap food nothing will fill you quite as well as a big bowl of Sichuan Beef noodles. Like most of the food on this list, it’s oily and spicy but the soup is great (pro-tip, blow on the soup as you’re tipping it to push away the top layer of oil) and at 10-12 Yuan for a big bowl you can’t go wrong. Dan Dan Mian is a smaller dish of dry – without broth – noodles dressed with minced pork, spring onions, oil and peanuts. It’s totally delicious but not always available by that name in noodle places. If you ask for gān bàn miàn (干拌面）you’ll usually get a rough approximation, possibly without the peanuts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540261779492-X9THASEWTX3A3JYCVJZB/chengdu12.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China There is also an APP for hiring cars called DIDI, which is like Uber and is cheaper than standard taxis, but without a Chinese bank card or phone number you won’t be able to use it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540186896402-APJI8Q2T109GZBKPT9X2/buddha.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China Some people will use Chengdu as their base and head to Leshan (乐山) to see the Giant Buddha. While undeniably spectacular, it can also become torturously busy, so consider staying for a night in Leshan (it’s famous for its snacks) and waking early to go the Giant Buddha. If not, there are clearly marked buses from the train station and a lot of taxi drivers who know where you want to go and are very eager to offer their services to you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540180490828-WAK0Q2PE9CIXIDU6GL6C/chengdu18.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China Taxi drivers in the city are generally good and certainly get you to where you want to go very quickly, but speak very little English. Prepare addresses in Chinese in advance or get a local who speaks English to help you. For most of your journeys you shouldn’t spend more than 30Yuan, and often it will be a lot less. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540179761151-6BXNO5PPLHMNDJT4BT3D/San-pao-Chengdu-by-Expat-Edna.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China San Da Pao (三大炮) – Gelatinous rice balls fried in a sweet sauce. China doesn’t have many desserts I enjoy but this is one I really do. 5-10Yuan. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540176461158-YRNFSQ76XF4UKDV7Y7TY/dexterstonewall-image-credit The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China Haidilao Hot Pot (huǒ guō 火锅) – A giant pot of bubbling red oil heated with a kerosene tank under your table. Hot pot is an institution in Chengdu which is impossible to avoid, so why try to? Though it can be incredibly spicy, the process of preparing your dip, feeding your meat and veg into the cauldron and then fishing to find them again has a great sense of occasion, which is why it is the go-to meal in Chengdu for celebrations. Haidilao Hot pot restaurant is a good choice for first-timers with famously good service, an English-language menu, and options for alternative, less spicy soup bases. For four people you can expect to pay around 150-200 Yuan. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540261744960-MN867WQ55J5LMPI6GOMK/chengdu17.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540186700429-8T0DVQ7X5ZXOM4UGO4G9/wenshu.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China Wenshu Monastery is the best-preserved Buddhist temple in Chengdu and is always worth a look. In a lot of parts you will be aware you are in a tourist area, but it is still a very pleasant place to walk around and explore. What’s more, If you are wanting to explore more after the monastery, the back streets of the northern part of Chengdu are much less developed than those in the south, and is a prime spot for some street photography or just soaking in the culture of past times. Free. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540187891062-W9F60KRK4DBB2ZRO7LH3/walmart.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China One of my favorite markets is 罗马假日广场, or ‘Roman Holiday Square’ in the west of the city. Take the line three metro to Gaoshengqiao (高升桥) and get out at gate B. Take the first right away from the main road and work your way down through the alleys until you find it. On a good day it’s bustling with local people and Tibetans. Inexplicably, looming over the whole thing is an enormous Walmart, but pay no mind to that. Outside the market is a prominently Tibetan population with some great restaurants tucked away. Wuhou Temple and Jinli Street are also nearby, and while the latter in particular is quite touristy, they are worth a look. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540188593521-EMHI9JDMVC11ID5F7LHD/jahbar.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China If you’re wanting to party, tell your cab driver to take you to Lan Kwai Fong - a long strip of bars of variable quality and questionable music. For my money, pre-drinks in Commune Bar or Mccelroys Irish Pub are far more pleasant and cater much more to an expat clientele. Drinks are cheap, particularly at Commune (10-25 Yuan a beer) and are generally good places to meet new people and start your night. Hakka Bar or Jah Bar (by the river) offer chill vibes and good music. Almost every night at Jah Bar people will be jamming, and you are welcome to join them if you want. If not, their beer garden is large and has reggae playing on the outdoor speakers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540178365164-NVV7FMWHYHCN3UH1F0PP/chengdu7.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540186553481-YI3RZSWLVBUHPRFS8ZP0/panda+base.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China Most people who come to Chengdu want to see the Pandas. As such, the Panda Base has a reputation, particularly during the weekends and holidays, for being intolerably busy. I recommend going on a weekday and early, as in, 7am-8am early. This isn’t just to beat the crowds. In the early morning the Pandas are at their most active, playing and fighting over food. As the day draws on and the temperatures rise they are pretty inactive, sleeping or lying on their backs, chewing bamboo. Entry is cheap at around 10 Yuan. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540187195347-TEDTO9EW6T8GWA23QE7B/w.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China If you’re into hiking, there are some incredible mountains that you can climb nearby Chengdu. While Emei mountain and Qingcheng mountain are the most popular and the easiest to get to, it’s worth asking the owner of your accommodation if they can arrange you joining a tour to one of the more remote and less-visited options. The nature is stunning and it’s a great opportunity, particularly once you start heading further west, to experience Tibetan culture as well.

Chen Mapo Tofu restaurant in Luomashi is famous for their version but most restaurants will serve one that is at least half-decent. Averages around 20-40 Yuan. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540179389810-G7ZLC43CLM4APTBSJ1J9/Fried-Guo-Kui.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China Guo Kui 锅盔 - A cheap snack that you can find just about anywhere. A circular pastry stuffed with minced pork or beef and flavored with Sichuan peppercorns, they are certain to quench your appetite and make your tongue vibrate with the numbing spice. Try to find some that have just been fried. 2-5 Yuan each. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540180312921-1CZG5AJQZMBV9CT8LME9/chengdu4.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China Traveling around Chengdu has become much easier in recent years thanks to the progressive development. The best and easiest way to travel around the city is by taking the metro. Tickets cost about 6 Yuan. Unfortunately there is currently no night service, so after around 11:30pm you’ll have to travel by other means. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540262176803-CDQDE3WFZQBOHHAR44JX/chengdu-home.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1540179620484-NX10OUHKLFWYUEIE0019/fish.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Chengdu, China Roast Fish (Kao yu烤鱼) – My favorite dish in Chengdu.

What's cool about this bridge is every Saturday and Sunday at 9pm, the bridge is closed to traffic for 15 minutes while it breathes fire and water over the surrounding spectators. *We personally recommend visiting 7 Bridges Brewery for an awesome view of the show and a great IPA. This is a much better view than being in the crowds on the street. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1524632653109-WXFX862A25AYFD5VWDIM/12-1.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Da Nang &amp; Hoi An, Vietnam DA NANG - Ban Co Peak/Monkey Mountain - Free to visit - Ban Co (Chessboard in English) peak is the highest mountain in Son Tra peninsula, standing at nearly 600m.

Closed on Fridays. Sunrise: For sure without a doubt the best time to visit. The lines will be long so get up extra early and head to the lines. Many, many people will be doing this (it’s kinda the thing to do) so just follow the crowds. The colors during sunrise change the color of the Taj to beautiful yellows and pinks. Sunset: Second best option. Night Viewing: Only possible during the full moon (and the two days before and after) as the sight is not lit up with lights. During the full moon the white marble glows in the moonlight. Best Months To Visit: October to March are the best months to visit as climate and temperature goes. The months of April and May get extremely hot (40+C), and July to September is monsoon season. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1553229537519-JYYTS1VSWA8I6DPY5OWL/Screen+Shot+2019-03-22+at+09.50.39.png The Blog - Your Guide To The Taj Mahal Ticket Cost - This holy site is quite expensive, but oh so worth it.

Make sure when you are booking your hotel (we recommend an awesome one down below) is in the area next to the Taj Mahal itself. Sure, you may pay maybe $4 more a night, but this you will save in transportation cost. The most important rule if you are taking a tuk-tuk and don’t want to overpay is this: download the Uber app (Uber is cheap in India) and put in your route to find what the fare price is - now you know the maximum amount you should pay for a tuk-tuk. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1553229866068-9XH961PJHREBZWQMNEC5/Screen+Shot+2019-03-22+at+10.13.37.png The Blog - Your Guide To The Taj Mahal What Is The Taj Mahal? - The Taj Mahal itself is a mausoleum Shah Jahan (right) built for his most favorite wife Mumtaz Mahal (left). Additionally on either side of the Taj are a mosque that is still in use today (the reason why it’s closed of Fridays) and a guest house. There is also a museum you can visit if you’re really intrigued. Is there a dress code: No, but just remember you are visiting a holy site (very sacred for Muslims) and a historical site in the conservative country of India. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1553231507417-T59VM7JL9H3QYUW6CG6S/Screen+Shot+2019-03-22+at+10.41.16.png The Blog - Your Guide To The Taj Mahal Beware Of The Touts - Touts are simply people trying to sell you things on the street: souvenirs, tuk-tuk rides, food, etc… In a country of nearly 3 billion people, everybody’s got to make money some how. Unfortunately for us, sometimes all they see is foreign $$$ and can be quite aggressive. Grrrltraveler has a great post about best practices to deal with them. Follow these simple 3 rules to make sure you don’t get ripped off: 1: Make sure you know what the Indian Rupee is worth compared to your money. Sounds like a no brainer but its easy to forget and way-way overpay. 2: Ask around for prices/don’t accept the first price they give you. 3: Haggle! This is a very normal thing to do in India, in fact the locals enjoy it.

This is a cave so big that a whole Manhattan city block, skyscrapers and all, could fit inside of it and it has immense and spectacular formations and dolines. The 4-day trek to the cave costs $3000/person. There is no other way to see Son Doong other than on the official trek, so if someone says that they will show you Son Doong, it is a scam, so beware. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1563601202550-UOGAVJED49T352R8O5A8/elephant.jpg The Blog - Your Guide To The Caves of Phong Nha, Vietnam Hang Voi (Elephant Cave) - $10 - A dry cave located in the heart of the protected zone of Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park.

It can easily be seen by yourself in half a day (we don’t run tours there), and is well worth a visit, especially for the journey in the traditional Dragon Boat up the river and through the cave. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1563601774844-V8BI54XN1H6JP7G0HC34/Hang-En-Cave-Phong-Nha-Vietnam-8.jpg The Blog - Your Guide To The Caves of Phong Nha, Vietnam Hang En Cave - $250 - One of the largest and most beautiful caves in the world, on the same system as Hang Son Doong (the world’s biggest cave) and as this cave is close as you will get with out the hefty price tag and huge commitment of going on a Son Doong expedition.

The other entrance to Dark Cave is many kilometers away in the Abandoned Valley and can be seen on the Abandoned Valley Trek. Hang Toi is a wonderful and very accessible example of the beautiful caves that are found throughout this region. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1563601374752-SIVKA3APM0DULXGAMHEY/hanggiangvooc.jpg The Blog - Your Guide To The Caves of Phong Nha, Vietnam Hang Vom & Hang Gieng Vooc - A mixture of wet and dry caves first opened to the public in December 2018.

Experience camping in the jungle with local bushmen in hammocks around a campfire. One of the main reasons that Tu Lan isn’t in the UNESCO world heritage area is that it was discovered so recently, and remains pristine for jungle adventuring and caving. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1563600854857-Q0L5XZX28EKD5PPHJU74/paradise.jpg The Blog - Your Guide To The Caves of Phong Nha, Vietnam Paradise Cave - $12 - If you are short of time and only have the chance to see one cave, this has to be the one.

Bicycles: A popular way you can explore this tiny city, but we would not recommend riding them to any of the caves (far away, very hilly, and more work than its worth). Taxi’s: Your last resort and are very expensive. Tour Packages: If you decide to pay for a tour package then you don’t have to worry about this at all, as the tour company/hotel/hostel will provide transportation. Walk: The city truly is small enough for you to just walk where you want to go (not to the caves of course). https://www.scratchmypacktravel.com/a-backpackers-blog/practical-ways-to-make-money-while-traveling10312017 monthly 0.5 2021-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1509456099298-KKEWD5LM9UMXX2CKIOLC/1.jpg The Blog - Practical Ways To Make Money While Traveling Handing out candy for Halloween while working at APU International School Da Nang, Vietnam https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1509456438265-RS079FI8BWY7BXX0727N/7.jpg The Blog - Practical Ways To Make Money While Traveling Daniel SKG - Traveling tattoo artist in South America https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1509456641616-7ELFPGALDW7Z63C25PBM/8.jpg The Blog - Practical Ways To Make Money While Traveling Street Performer - Prague, Czech Republic https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1509456136239-KKGBCCHT7VE79I4JL6EQ/6_Fotor.jpg The Blog - Practical Ways To Make Money While Traveling Digital nomads photo https://www.scratchmypacktravel.com/a-backpackers-blog/diy-wine-tour7112017 monthly 0.5 2021-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502174022048-TW5OZHUP0X2RHQVQHPE5/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173665512-JRL6AT0GZJNAHQAGE3IR/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173779813-2PCJUWW07K3WEALGJPZ8/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173957051-VRYOTEPEMPGTRP1VC760/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173813956-B1STQHW9D9BDA23AY63U/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173687124-TS8S431JWJMTKE9ZJJVL/DSC_0204+copy_Fotor-1.jpg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173867614-9GXBJK1PYIQXQWW2S85M/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173843101-YOD9N1HC5KXUSTIX899K/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173930737-MTPMO0KGOHR9R9JIECUR/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173611284-E267FCZGIPV7HPXOHBEF/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital Marlborough Region New Zealand https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173636893-QGY2M4NA3E5MYBU6977E/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1502173749394-0DVGDA4UE05YHW22IXSP/image-asset.jpeg The Blog - Vineyard Hopping in New Zealand's Wine Capital https://www.scratchmypacktravel.com/a-backpackers-blog/48-hours-in-kuala-lumpur monthly 0.5 2021-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1513402047832-I8D3RPTOLBAMGHE8NA0H/DSC_0905_Fotor-1.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Sri Mahamariamman Temple - Free to visit - The Sri Mahamariamman Temple is the oldest Hindu temple in Kuala Lumpur, founded in 1873.

This 347 room palace was built at a slow pace as its initial objective was to provide employment to the famine-stricken farmers in the area. This gorgeous palace is worth visiting, as the museum features the old collection of exotic cars from the royal family and exhibits of stuffed leopards. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1552736089169-ZEI7YOYDD7HN5UP8D7WC/Screen+Shot+2019-03-16+at+17.03.18.png The Blog - 72 Hours In Jodhpur, India https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1552804103036-2GKWP9YIUSAKGU38V3NL/Jodhpur_ERL-65.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Jodhpur, India https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1552804319599-WIR9FBJY36ITRKEZ3YO1/Jodhpur_ERL-9.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Jodhpur, India https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1552804292464-ODT7CJVXPDZF6ZT73ZPC/Jodhpur_ERL-54.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Jodhpur, India A ‘room of passion’ inside the fort.

This fort still has many rooms adorned with the same gems and furniture from the last 100 years and still has an armory, women’s quarters, and museum featuring jewels, ancient paintings and much more. Many films, such as Batman: A Dark Knight Rises were filmed in part here.

This square has an old clocktower in the middle (go to the top of the clocktower for this view for only 30INR). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1552804183813-VKPLS4TPG72TIZS4DYPW/Jodhpur_ERL-22.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Jodhpur, India The Blue City - Most people (including us) think the entire city of Jodhpur is blue when they first arrive. Well it is actually just a small part of the city which is located on the other side of the fort from where you will be staying (most likely). Take a half day and go explore these beautiful streets. The contrasting colors are unreal and make it easy for a compelling photo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1552735854979-8FF99EJ2LZPTCWL5RLDY/Screen+Shot+2019-03-16+at+16.54.47.png The Blog -

Though this is an “expensive” restaurant in the city, a dinner for two (including a bottle of wine) will set you back only $40-$50. Reserve a table for sunset and watch the lake city transform. https://www.scratchmypacktravel.com/a-backpackers-blog/72-hours-in-cairo-egypt monthly 0.5 2021-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533710680916-DXOWSIV9TQCWAS7QHNKM/18495.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt Mo Bistro (Mohandiseen): $$ - A delicious steak, in a modern bistro style. The restaurant had great meat dishes and salads, and they also have a solid weekend brunch. You can have shisha upstairs. This is one of those fancy, relaxing places where you can get very affordable prices. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533710245009-O1EINPZEZIB2JNPA2JSY/a6d54c6300847f270866c96da3ab07b0.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt Cairo Kitchen (Zamalek): $$ - For top quality Egyptian fare, try this restaurant. Their salad and mezze options in the glass window are all excellent, and their hot dishes are all delicious as well. This is the one Egyptian restaurant I regularly go to, as most restaurants serving Egyptian food are quite mediocre. Also, Sunny’s Gourmet grocery is next store. Check it out to stock up on some good snacks! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533711552458-3FP4X9TEBWXKCXODDR4O/View-of-Cairo-from-Citadel-5.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt Mosques Next to Citadel: Sultan Hassan Mosque and El-Rifai Mosque – These are absolutely worth a visit. The Sultan Hassan Mosque is a great example of Arabic artistry and Mamluk architecture, built in 1356-63. Directly facing this mosque is the El-Rifai Mosque which was built in 1912 and was built to replicate its next door neighbor. This one is a bit more ostentatious, but interesting to look at for sure.

Highly recommend them both. They are great on-the-go places, and unbelievably cheap. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533713532282-2SHFVATOLUUIHNKSK0W0/4.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt Khan il-Khalili – You will really kick yourself if you miss this. There is truly something for everyone at the Khan, and feels like you are walking through the market alleyways in Aladdin, in a true, traditional example of a Middle Eastern souq (bazaar). This shopping district was originally established in AD 1400. You can get just about anything that you could possibly imagine here. Some of my husband and my favorite items to purchase are the Egyptian metal lamps, glass items such as ornaments and tea sets, incredibly cheap and beautiful tablecloths (Egypt is known for its fabrics), and the bookseller. *HIGHLY RECOMMEND also combining this visit with a trip to the Whirling Dervishes show (Wekalet El Ghouri Arts Center), which is at 8:30 PM on Saturday, Monday, and Wednesday (you must get your tickets at 6:30 PM) in a building which is an ancient marketplace. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533713662685-HE7I73KAAK5588S9OBC1/london-cab-egypt-feature-onsite.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533710872688-ICZ90EXNQSF4GSGAYB51/adab576c-9a08-4395-815a-212a9a25f26e.JPG The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt Cafes and Shisha - Oldish Café (Downtown, Garden City): $$ - A very pleasant courtyard sitting area, with excellent drinks, and a wide variety of tasty foods and desserts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533709993261-EEUCZWFXFP2LNEOC53TJ/gallery_elgezirah_La-Palmeraie-restaurant-Copy.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt Sofitel Hotel Moroccan Restaurant (Mohandiseen): $$$ - An absolute must. Incredibly serene, you sit right on the Nile, and the tagine dishes are delicious. Both the chicken and fish tagines are very tasty, as well as the mixed dip salad platter for bread. Most evenings, they have live musicians who play traditional Morroccan music as well. Do not miss this restaurant. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533712372434-3UU0U6VA4EWHYMQYXQTR/1.jpeg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533712345152-DU0ZC2BH4YHYMZKMEVI1/2.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533643250961-TK2C0G5BCD3D5NLU3B58/Khan1-2.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533711075933-TV47JX4QOAPB8FEY5A08/3180785.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt Cafes and Shisha - Rooftop (Zamalek): $$ - Stay up late with friends and watch the sun set over the Nile from this rooftop perch. Order a shisha and some snacks, and you will be set for hours. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533711736612-AEKXVB7KRYTEU7K7TAFA/al-azhar-park-cairo-3.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt Al-Azhar Park – A rare pocket of serenity in Cairo, with great views of the Citadel. Sit at one of the outdoor restaurants with a drink and meander the well-manicured grounds of the park to break up the day. This was built over what was essentially a medieval rubbish dump, and was opened in 2005. If you are taking a taxi to Al-Azhar Park, it is often very complicated on the roads to get here. As such, I would pay a little bit more and order a London Cab online – it is a very professional and competent taxi service which will get you there without issues. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533643154559-9VGV1ISYYMXZI73ZPDF0/Giza-2.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt Giza Pyramids and Sphinx – A beautiful and epic site. While not actually the most historically interesting pyramids around Cairo (Dahshur and Saqqara have the hieroglyphics inside, with some truly incredible tombs, as well as earlier pyramids which show the process of how the Ancient Egyptians began making their pyramids), the Giza pyramids are a sight to see. You should absolutely do the picture atop the camel and embrace your tourist-ness. I mean, you came this far, why wouldn’t you? You should choose a well fed camel whose owner is not a child. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533711182349-YNSNMA8KNAD476SPSU2L/1200px-The_Egyptian_Museum.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt The Egyptian Museum – One of the most incredible things about the Egyptian Museum is the sheer amount of Ancient Egyptian relics, statues, and art that cover every single imaginable surface in this old British colonial looking building. The museum was founded in 1857 by French Egyptologist August Mariette. It is worth hiring a guide for this museum because the collection is poorly labeled, and giving the guide a clear limit on the amount of time that you would like your tour to be (you could spend days in here and barely scratch the surface!). This museum sits in Tahrir square, where the 2011 Revolution took place. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533711622810-6OAG4RHHBAUENTYPJ6LB/Citadel-2.jpg The Blog - 72 Hours In Cairo, Egypt The Citadel – A great piece of more modern history in Cairo, also offering excellent views of the city. This structure is both imposing and impressive, as well as one of the great monuments to modern Egyptian rule. The Citadel was originally built by Saladin in 1176, though all that remains from that time are the outer walls. Many different Ottoman rulers also built structures now present in the Citadel. Perhaps the most impressive thing to visit in the Citadel is the Mosque of Mohammad Ali. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1533715140002-9PCRAJUIMI7DUFPTZFX0/5.jpg The Blog -

$3 - This is Colombia's National sport.

These buses travel at higher speeds and longer distances within the city than the other bus types. Green Bus connects major subway stations or bus terminals in downtown Seoul. Green stands for the mountains surrounding the city. Yellow Buses circle downtown Seoul and stop at stations for blue buses and major railway stations, as well as business, tourist and shopping areas. Red bus, or express bus, are the quickest of the group for wide area line since they make fewer stops. Their main purpose is to provide commuters with easy access to neighboring cities, such as Ilsan, Bundang, Suji, Suwon, Anyang and Incheon. Maeul Bus, smaller community-based bus, runs shorter routes that often include residential areas. Maeul buses are easy to spot due to their significantly smaller size in comparison to other buses. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1515660735601-IO1P82WDF0VX9BHGZSHH/soju.jpg The Blog - 48 Hours In Seoul, South Korea Soju - Cost around $2-10 a bottle - Soju is a clear, colorless distilled beverage.

First-time backpackers tend to visit as many places as they can in a limited amount of time out of pure excitement, and they plan every little detail. They usually spend anywhere from 1-4 weeks in total for their backpacking trip squeezing in as many destinations as possible on a conscious budget. Their highlights of the trip are made up of partying and seeing the main tourist attractions rather than the cultural off the beaten path experiences. Their journey was the best experience of their life, and they're obsessed with talking about it. A common practice of the first time traveler abroad is being out until 3 am only to wake up 5 minutes before the hostels free toast and Tang breakfast ends. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b0212ce4b036d86b0d587b/1523518085522-BQRA6D4RGNGKLWVYGYZS/DSC_0682+copy_Fotor+copy-1.jpg The Blog -
