Dikarut oleh Aida Nasirah at 2:21 AM 0 comments

1. Wisteria Tunnel

Wisteria Tunnel is located at the Kawachi Fuji Gardens in Kitakyushu, Japan. Flowering trees hang overhead and the different colored rows speckle the garden.

 

2. Cinque Terre, Italy

 

The Cinque Terre is part of the coast in the Liguria region of Italy. The terraces built on the rugged landscape are a popular tourist attraction.

 

3. Hotel La Montaña Mágica

Magic Mountain hotel is exactly what you think it is. It's a hotel shaped like a mountain that spews water from the top. It's located in Huilo Huilo, a private Natural Reserve in the Los Rios region of Chile.

 

4. The Crooked Forest 

The Crooked Forest is located right outside of Nowe Czarnowo, West Pomerania, Poland. The grove contains approximately 400 pine trees with bent trunks. They were planted sometime in 1939, but why or who made them crooked is unknown.

 

5. Tunnel Of Love

 Giant trees surround this old train tunnel located in Kleven, Ukraine. The magical-looking place is nicknamed "The Tunnel Of Love" by locals because it is a popular spot for couples to visit.

STID (PART 9) – Top 5 Roller Coasters In The World 2012

Dikarut oleh Aida Nasirah at 1:15 AM 0 comments

Rollercoaster fanatics live for the adrenalin rush that each trip provides, and with coaster designers becoming ever more ingenious in their perverse desire to scare the wits out of hard-core coaster riders, the stakes are raised just that little bit higher each time a new rollercoaster is unveiled.
Here then, in no particular order, are the world’s top ten scariest rollercoasters.

No. 1 - Silver Star 
(Europa Park, Rust, Germany)

Distorting the faces of avid German rollercoaster fans since 2002, Silver Star is the tallest rollercoaster in Europe, using a chain-lift system to slowly draw riders up an initial rise of 239 feet before letting go and plunging them into the drop at reputed speeds of up to 130 kilometres per hour and 4G vertical forces.


 

No. 2 - Tower of Terror II 
(Dreamworld, Queensland, Australia)

The original Tower of Terror separated over eight million Australian rollercoaster riders from their lunches since its launch in 1997. In a bid further boost the dry-cleaning industry, the ride was relaunched in an even scarier incarnation in 2010. Riders are catapulted out of a tunnel and up a vertical tower, reaching a top speed of 161 kilometres per hour in just seven seconds. At the top of the 115ft high tower they hang motionless and weightless for a split second before plummeting back to earth, into the tunnel and out to find the nearest sick bag.




No. 3 - Steel Dragon 2000
(Nagashima Spa Land, Mie Prefecture, Japan)

Another record holder, Steel Dragon may no longer be the fastest nor the tallest rollercoaster in the world, but it is still the longest. The amount of steel required to make the coaster earthquake proof also makes it one of the most expensive ever manufactured. Earthquakes aside, the sheer monstrous scale of Steel Dragon 2000 easily earns it a place in the world’s top 10 scariest rollercoasters.



No. 4 - Kingda Ka 
(Six Flags Great Adventure, New Jersey, USA)
 
For many, Kingda Ka will be the ‘daddy’ of all scary coasters as it is, to this day, the highest in the world, climbing a butt-clenching 456 ft into the sky. This particular vomit comet hasn’t been without its problems though ‚Äì in 2005 a variety of mechanical problems damaged the launch engine and cabling systems. Happily these faults were fully rectified, but in 2009 Kingda Ka was struck by lightning causing further damage. Now that’s what I call scary.




No. 5 - Intimidator 305
(Kings Dominion, Virginia, USA)
A newcomer to the world of scary rollercoasters, Intimidator 305 won the 2010 Golden Ticket Award for best new rollercoaster. Boasting an innovative new ‘double spine’ track, Intimidator 305′s construction requires fewer supports on its crest curves and throws in plenty of eye-popping high speed twists and turns to satisfy and petrify the most ardent coaster lovers.

STID (PART 6) – Attractions of Kedah

Dikarut oleh Aida Nasirah at 11:36 PM 0 comments
Today i want to share with you the attractions of Kedah. Explore the towns and villages, explore many of nature's paradises in Kedah and uncover the history of the ancient wonders of Kedah at the Bujang Valley and learn about the oldest Sultanate in Asia by visiting Kedah's capital, Alor Setar. 

Towns and Villages
An excellent way to see all of Kedah is to travel by road, stop by the many towns along the highway and divert to some of the villages located in the hilly terrain or coastal areas. Hop on a ferry or a boat to the many islands off the western coast of Kedah to enjoy the best beaches in Asia .  (Caution: If you drive through the countryside, be extra careful as there are villagers, children and often animals that may suddenly move on to the road.
 
Towns from north to south.
There are many small towns and quaint villages in Kedah. Travel by road or rail to visit some of the towns and villages in Kedah.

Bukit Kayu Hitam - at the Thai-Malaysia border. Malaysian come here to shop for Thai goods.

Kuah - the largest town on Langkawi island. As the island of Langkawi has a tax-free status, this is the place to shop for tax-free items.

Kodiang - located at the Kedah-Perlis border. This quiet, small town is bustles with activity on Saturday market days, where a wide range of local and Thai products are sold. Nearby is Gua Kerbau (Buffalo Cave), an archaeological site where there is evidence of a prehistoric (Neolithic) settlement. 

Kuala Nerang - the town nearest to the Tasik Pudu resort (a holiday resort trapped in the heart of the virgin forest of eastern highlands of Kedah). 

Alor Star (formerly Alor Setar) - the capital of Kedah, is about 90 km from Butterworth (Penang). This old capital is a mixed of old and new architecture with many historical sights. Places to visit here includes Pekan Rabu, Balai Besar, State Museum, Royal Museum and Anak Bukit.
 
Kuala Kedah - located at the mouth of the Kedah River. A historical trading post, it was a transit centre along the India-China route. Today it is a fishing village known for her seafood. A jetty to Langkawi island is located in Kedah.

Tanjung Dawai - a charming fishing village located at the mouth of the Sungai Merbok, facing the Straits of Malacca. The village is located about 20km from Sungai Petani and less than 5 km the rich archaeological site of Bujang Valley.  Its a place to visit if you want to buy local foodstuff such as keropok (Malaysian chips), dried salted fish or belacan. Travel from here by boat to Pantai Merdeka (boats take locals across for RM1.50 per person) 

Merbok and the Bujang Valley. Merbok is a small quite town with just two row of shops. The surrounding areas are small fruit farms and some rubber plantations. However, Merbok is at th centre of the largest archeological finds in Malaysia. Located nearby is the famed Bujang Valley, centre of a Hindu Kingdom that dates back to the 4th century AD/CE.

Sungai Petani is a striving industrial town located in central Kedah, the second largest town in Kedah. In many ways this town is more alive than the capital Alor Star because of the many industries located here and the proximity of the town to the port at Perai and George Town, in Penang. The well-known Bujang Valley archaeological site is only 15km from here. 

Baling - located in the hilly south-western part of Kedah. Baling is famed for  fruits especially durians (king of fruits). Historically Baling is known as the place where the peace talks between the communist party leader Chin Peng and the then Prime Minister of Malaysia, Tunku Abdul Rahman held talks. Nearby are some beautiful forest recreation parks. Read about the legends of Baling and about other interesting  towns in our forthcoming publication. 

Islands of Kedah  Over a hundred island with beautiful secluded beaches and lush tropical forest lies off the coast of Kedah.
- Langkawi district: Pulau Langkawi, Pulau Dayang, Pulau Payar
- Off the coast of Yan, central Kedah: Bunting, Pulau Songsong, Pulau Bidan, Pulau Bunting, Pulau Telor
