3 . A wellness holiday refers to tourism activities based on improving and enhancing a person’s well being. With wellness tourism expected to grow quickly, it is clear that more of us than ever before are placing wellness at the top of our travel agendas.
Wellness travel for the mind
If travel broadens the mind, it can also benefit mental health and spiritual well being. Meditation retreats (a practice of thinking) that support self-development, observation, and awareness are popular destinations and often feature exercises like yoga which improve both physical and mental well being.
A strong body means a healthy mind. Travel breaks that combine physical activity with relaxation treatments tick multiple boxes. Many destinations feature health clubs and modern gyms.

4 . Arrangements for the Beijing Tour
Day 1
Any visit to Beijing is incomplete without a hike on the Great Wall. However, it is thousands of miles long and the Beijing section is only a small part of the Great Wall. The first choice is Badaling, but we recommend Juyong Pass, which is less crowded but no less impressive. Depending on your health and preference, you can climb very steep steps or have a walk on the relatively flat areas. There are many locations for great photo opportunities.
Day 2
Start at the Temple of Heaven. where emperors used to hold ceremonies to pray. Stop at the Echo Wall and discover the wonder of voices bouncing (弹跳) back and forth. Pass through the guard-protected Golden Water Bridge, and go to visit the Palace Museum.
Day 3
You can pay a visit to Capital Museum where the exhibits have more surprises. Take a walk along Wangfujing Street, a modern shopping street. The walking is much less intensive and the budgeted time much more flexible. If you are crazy about Peking Opera, National Centre for the Performing Arts is an ideal place to go.
Day 4
The Summer Palace in a northwestern suburb of the city is a beautiful place. A short taxi ride north will take you to Qianmen Street. This retail centre was renovated (翻新) for the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics. Here are some of the oldest businesses of the city, including the famous Peking Duck.
1. What can visitors do on Day 1?A.Visit Capital Museum. | B.Hike on the Great Wall. |
C.Taste the Peking Duck. | D.Walk along Qianmen street. |
A.Peking Opera lovers. | B.Architecture lovers. |

7 . How cool can libraries be in an era of iPads and Kindles? More than you think, if you know where to go.
Trinity College Library: Dublin, Ireland
Old, yes. Boring, no. It is the oldest library in Ireland, founded in 1592 by Queen Elizabeth I. Not only is the outside impressive, it boasts the largest single room library in the world, also known as the Long Room, which contains more than 200,000 of the library’s oldest books.
Geisel Library, University of California: San Diego, U. S.
Named after Geisel and designed in the late 1960s, San Diego’s Geisel Library is one of the most modern library buildings in the world. At first glance, it looks like a spaceship.
But of course, it’s not just the outside that’s interesting. The library also hosts “Dinner in the Library,” which invites readers for cocktails and also a special speech from excellent authors.
TU Delft Library: The Netherlands
The library was constructed in 1997 and has more than 862,000 books and its own museum. The building itself exists beneath the ground, so you can’t really see the actual library. What makes it interesting is the roof, which is a grassy hill. The roof covers 5,500 square meters and has become one of the most striking and greenest structures in the area.
Bibliotheca Alexandrina: Alexandria, Egypt
The Bibliotheca Alexandrina is the revival of the ancient Royal Library of Alexandria, which was the largest and most influential library in the Greek world. It was built by Alexander the Great some 2,300 years ago. The new library was reborn in 2002 after 10 years of designing, planning and construction. With its rounded yet tilting(倾斜) form, the library looks like a modern painting.

An Unforgettable Travel Experience
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________9 . A pair of best friends are proving that adventure doesn’t have an age limit — even when you’re 81. Ellie Hamby and Sandy Hazelip are planning to see all seven continents in just over two and a half months.
Their first stop was Antarctica (南极洲). Getting to the southernmost continent first need crossing the Drake Passage, the famously rough waters. “For almost two days, we were rocking and rolling through the Drake Passage. It was just crazy,” Hamby said. “But when we stepped foot on the ground of the Antarctic, we forgot all that difficulties. The beauty of the Antarctic is just unbelievable.”
Over the past three months, the pair have ridden camels in Egypt, and observed the Northern Lights in Finland. For Hamby, the best part of the trip was not the beauty along the way. “We love all the sights that we saw, but the things that we remember the most are the people that we met,” she said. “We met some of the most wonderful, kindest, friendliest people in the world. We just have friends now all over the world.”
When it came to how their families felt about their journey, Hamby said her daughter Louise was not too concerned. “She just says, ‘Well, if Mom falls out of a hot air balloon in Egypt or off the mountain…That’s fine. She is living the life she wanted, and I am happy for her,’” Hamby said.
Hazelip hopes their story can inspire people of all ages. “Don’t sit in that chair and waste away,” Hazelip said. “The world is a book and he who does not travel only reads one page. So get up out of that easy chair, step out of your comfort zone, make some plans and live. Remember that age is only a number.”
