4 . These are hotel rooms where you can have an unusual experience!

A favorite of celebrities, this resort in the Utah desert is popular with any traveler. While every room here has character, none matches the elegance of the Girijaala Suite.

At over 3,500 square feet, the room boasts a large, private lap pool, a sweeping terrace (平台) overlooking majestic rock formations; and a sky lounge area where guests can bed down for the night under the clear Utah skies. But don’t worry if you get chilly; the interior of the room has a cozy king-size bed and a deep-soaking tub to help you warm up.

At this property on the border of Kruger National Park, guests can reserve a one-night experience in a four-level tree house to see animals that roam the park.

And of course, this is no ordinary structure: the house is entirely self-sustaining with a solar power supply, a water collection system and a bio-rock sanitation system. The tree house is understandably off the grid (电网) so guests can sleep under the night sky taking in the magic of their surroundings.

The Beverly Wilshire has been a magnet for the rich, famous and powerful since its opening in 1928. Guests who reserve the Veranda Suite located on the roof of the hotel are in for a serious surprise. Not only is the room accessed by a hidden entrance behind a wrought-iron staircase, but it also has a 2,100 square-foot terrace with dreamy views of the Hollywood Hills. In the middle of this private, urban oasis is a 10-foot-tall tent with a crystal chandelier (吊灯)，marble lamps and fur rugs. In a city full of stars, this may be your best opportunity to soak them in.

5 . William Lindesay, a famous Great Wall expert and conservationist, and his wife Wu Qi have traveled the globe by the back paths, providing their sons with a unique growing environment. Sun hats, backpacks and sneakers (运动鞋)—these are the day-to-day must-haves for the family.

Most of their trips seem far from relaxing—cultural study in the hot and dry desert, a 53-kilometer hiking tour of New Zealand, a one-day climb to three English mountaintops and a six-day train ride from Beijing to Moscow.

Many assume the family must be wealthy and can afford their global travel, but they are not. Lindesay says they just choose to spend money on travel and eschew pricey hotels and restaurants where possible. Lindesay mentions the trip to Moscow as an example. Instead of taking a taxi from the railway station to the hotel, they took the subway. “We crossed the city for saving money, communicated with local people, and saw they are people just like us, everywhere. We arrived at our destination feeling comfortable.”

However, their journeys, which can last weeks or months, have sometimes been inconsistent with their children’s schooling. Wu remembers once Lindesay let their elder son ask for leave so that they could go to New York for a 45-day lecture tour. Therefore the son missed his final exam. Things like that bother the family all the time.

Lindesay attaches great importance to learning out of the classroom, saying that children might score well on school tests, but traveling outside, in distant lands with different languages, cultures, and political structures, is the real test. “You can only get streetwise on the street. You can only get worldly-wise when seeing the world,” he says.

7 . Travel allows us to experience the world. But as we travel, we are also leaving our footprint on every place we visit. This is why culturally immersive (沉浸) travel is so important. Because the wrong kind of travel badly influences the world. One of the reasons we started this blog was to help others travel better and feel comfortable getting off the beaten path (常规路), communicating with locals, and take you “Beyond the traditional Bucket”, if you will.

People who only get 2-weeks off per year are often just looking for an easy destination with a beach to relax on. This isn’t travel. This is a vacation. But “immersive Travel” or "Cultural Travel" is an entirely new type of trip. It is about experiencing and protecting the various traditions around the world. It’s about being open to new experiences and willing to step into another’s shoes. Cultural travel is jumping in with both feet and leaving your idea about what your trip should be behind you. It’s eating local dishes and sleeping in guesthouses. It’s building genuine connections with locals. It’s learning about the history of a country and leaving your trip with a greater understanding of the place you came to see and the people who live there.

Often times in today’s age, “travelers” will visit a country just to snap some photos of the famous sights to post on Instagram or to drink the night away, or even just to relax on a tropical beach. But that kind of vacation can be harmful to the very communities you’re traveling to.

Beyond supporting the local communities and the protection of local customs and traditions, you’ll also experience some personal benefits through cultural travels. There’s simply no way to travel this way with a closed mind. You’ll get to know different cultures intimately and understand them a lot better. You’ll also become less judgmental (评头论足的) of others the more you travel.

8 . Travel should be enjoyable. It makes you take a break somewhere different, away from all the usual worries of life. However, your travel is often stressful.     1     Here are some ways to make our travel more enjoyable!

Book well.

    2     Don’t all these amazing hotels look the same? How about looking for a home where you get far more space using that money? Camping trips are also a good way of spending you vacations. So determining where to live can make your travel more pleasant.

Find fun in your air travel.

We know that sometimes air travel can be annoying. In fact, airports are amusing places. There’s so much to explore.     3     From watching people to enjoying wonderful advertisements, you can gain great pleasure at the airport if you travel with the right state of mind.

    4    

The best things in life are simple and free. Make simple travel plans that make your travel more interesting! You learn about the culture and engage with (互动) the locals as well. Most of the time, you wouldn’t just walk with the tour guides who make you go through some places that just aren’t to your liking.

Stay fit

There’s little fun in travelling if you don’t feel well. If you wish to make your travel more enjoyable, take good care of your health before you mean to travel.     5     Get all the medicines you’d possibly need.
