2 . Feel like a family day trip outside London? Here are some of the best choices.
Harry Potter Studio
The Harry Potter Studio tour is one of the easiest day trips from London. Just read the directions on the website where you buy tickets and follow the crowds from the train to the bus. It is a unique experience. A walk through the studio allows families to appreciate every little detail that was put into the production of the Harry Potter movies from the costumes to the sets. Visitors can view the Potions Classroom, board the Hogwarts’ Express, and walk through the Dursley’s house.
Leeds Castle
Leeds Castle is one of the most beautiful castles in the UK. It is surrounded by a river and gardens, making it a relaxing and peaceful place. Leeds Castle is open for self-guided tours, and there are kid-friendly shows. Leeds Castle has a wonderfully-designed maze (迷宫), which has a surprise at the center that will appeal to all ages, not just children looking for a place to play. Leeds Castle also has a big playground, one part of which is set aside for small kids while the other inspires teenagers in an old game of hide-and-seek.
Windsor Castle
Windsor Castle is used by the current British royal family. This makes it the longest-occupied palace in Europe. Afraid that your young children might feel dull? Don’t worry. There is a kids’ audio tour available as well as an activity that features crafts (手工艺), coloring and dress-up for little ones. And in the summer months, parents will be happy to know that there is a place to get an ice cream for their kids centrally located in the castle complex (建筑群).

8 . Plan your 2020 vacation. The following four places are your fantastic destinations. You can enjoy a completely different experience.
Panama
Costa Rica and the Caribbean often enjoy much more popularity than Panama, but visitors should consider the centre American country if they want a “lesscrowded paradise”. The travel site states, “Here, horses are still the primary means of transportation and local fishermen serve fresh seafood and fruit from their home kitchens for roughly $ 6 a plate.”
Israel
If you’re looking for a onceinalifetime experience, National Geographic Travel says visitors should head to Jerusalem to celebrate Easter with thousands of pilgrims (朝圣者). If the crowds get too huge, visitors are told to take a boat ride to King Herod’s 2, 000yearold Masada fortress(要塞) or set off on a peaceful morning boat ride across the sea of Galilee.
Svalbard
If you’re a fan of winter activities, but are in need of some sun, then perhaps a trip to Svalbard is a good choice. National Geographic Travel notes, “The Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard is located about 620 miles south of the North Pole.In late spring, the sun never falls below the horizon—meaning you can take in all the Vitamin D you desire.” Popular activities in the area include hiking and wildlife spotting.
Namibia
During spring, Namibia is regarded as the perfect destination with reduced travel costs on cooler evenings. In late May, National Geographic Travel says that the watering holes start to dry up again, which attracts giraffes and black rhino from their hiding spots. If you’re fond of adventurous exploration, head to the Namibia Desert for a spot of sand boarding.

9 . Do you want to relax? Here are several beautiful beaches we choose for you.
North Beach, Florida
Warm, clear water, white sand, and nature activities helped this beach rise to the top of our list. North Beach, near St. Petersburg, has a large lagoon (泻湖) that doesn’t get above 3 feet deep. It’s like a natural pool for kids.
Spend the night in the Loews Don CeSar where families can keep busy with movies and toys, books, and DVDs to borrow. There’s a drop-off kids’ club for 4- to 12-year-olds.
Coligny Beach, South Carolina
Coligny stood out for its calm water. And the beach’s hard-packed sand is perfect for kids to build castles or ride. You can rent bikes from a nearby Shore Beach Service stand.
Spend the night in Beach House, which organizes free pool and beachside games. All rooms have a small fridge.
Coronado Central Beach, San Diego
This 2-mile stretch of beach has everything families could want: perfect weather, white sand, and warm, gentle water. But no smoking is allowed on this beach.
Spend the night in the Victorian-style Hotel del Coronado, which offers a kids’ program for 4- to 12-year-olds.
Coquina Beach, Florida
This beach is famous for colorful seashells (贝壳). Every morning, there’s a row of shells on the shoreline for kids to pick up. Another activity: kayaking (皮划艇). You can rent one on the beach.
Spend the night in the Tradewinds Resort. A great money saver: each room has a full kitchen.
