1 . Four Must-visit Campsites in Western Australia
Fair Harvest
Playing host to campers looking for a more environmentally-friendly stay, Fair Harvest has an outdoor kitchen made from wood harvested on site and a farm cafe where you can buy fresh produce and home cooked meals. Guests are free to wander in the gardens, go bushwalking in the private forest, or take a class in the on-site yoga (瑜伽) barn—the only campsite yoga studio in the area.
Lucky Bay
In 2017, a scientific study was carried out to discover which Australian beach had the whitest sand and Lucky Bay, in Cape. Le Grand National Park on the southern coast of Western Australia, emerged victorious. Up close, the beach is often frequented by kangaroos bounding at the sand’s edge. The Lucky Bay campground sits right behind the beach and is well-equipped with toilets, showers, barbecues and picnic tables-though campers do need to bring their own drinking water.
Rottnest Island
More commonly a day trip destination, Rottnest is a car-free island best explored by bike and ringed by glorious Indian Ocean beaches. There are options for luxurious glamping (豪华野营) at Discovery Parks Rottnest Island, but those looking for a more traditional camping experience should head instead to the Rottnest Island campground. Here, you’ll find bathroom blocks, a camp kitchen and barbecues, but the highlight is the site’s large population of quokkas, which are close relatives of the kangaroo.
Imintji
Located at the foothills of the Wunaamin Miliwundi Ranges, Imintjii is a simple yet well-maintained campground that includes washing facilities, fire pits, barbecue shelters,outdoor seating and water taps. It’s a great base for visiting the dramatic landscapes of Bell Gorge, Tunnel Creek and Windjana Gorge. It’s also one of the few campsites in the world that are famous for their own art center, with works by local artists on sale.

5 . Singapore is a lively island country known for a mix of cultures and tastes. Here are four popular dishes that offer a true taste of Singapore.
Hainanese Chicken Rice
This dish is a favorite and is very simple yet very tasty. The chicken is cooked in water to be very soft and is served with rice that has been cooked with chicken soup, along with a bit of spicy sauce. Each part of this dish is carefully made to make the eating experience even better.
Bak Kut Teh (Pork Ribs Tea)
A strong and healthy breakfast choice, Bak Kut Teh is a dish that warms you up. Even though tea is in the name, it's not a drink. It's a tasty soup made by cooking pork bones with Chinese herbs and spices. The soup is usually eaten with rice and has a bit of a spicy taste that wakes up your taste buds, a great way to start the day.
Katong Laksa
Laksa is a hot noodle soup that shows Singapore's mix of cultures. The soup has a thick coconut milk(椰奶) base with a strong smell of spices like lemongrass and tamarind. It's often filled with things like shrimp, fishcakes, and soft tofu, making it a full and satisfying meal that pleases your mouth with each bite.
Char Kway Teow (Stir-Fried Rice Noodles)
If you like food that's a bit smoky and tasty, try char kway teow. This noodle dish is a must-eat at Singapore's food stalls. It's cooked in a wok(炒菜锅) with things like clams, Chinese sausage, and long beans, then flavored with a sauce that is both tasty and a little sweet. The last step is to add a bit of chopped chili, which gives the dish a nice little spicy taste.
