The Asian Economic Crisis

View:

Nha Trang is a coastal city and capital of Khanh Hoa province, Vietnam. The city is located on a beautiful bay, the Nha Trang Bay, which was chosen by Travel and Leisure in two succeeding years as one of 29 most beautiful bays in the world. The city is located right on the ocean side, near the mouth of the Cai river.

Nha Trang is a busy and popular beach destination with a long stretch of white sand beach and some picturesque islands which offer good snorkelling and diving.

It has a lively nightlife, a good choice of restaurants and plenty of shopping. The Nha Trang market is near the city centre. It is a typical Vietnamese market, with many trinkets and small items for sale.

You can get every thing you want at Nha Trangs beach without leaving your place. Sellers with books, fruits, jewellery and much more come to you and offer their goods and of course you can also get food like lobsters cooked right in front of you. The beach of Nha Trang is often called Vietnam's Mediterranean. The coral seabed in Nha Trang also makes it ideal for scuba-diving and snorkelling.

Many bars can be found along the beach. The bars and restaurants in the city centre, and particularly along Biet Thu, are forbidden from staying open past midnight.

The huge White Buddha seated on a hill side above Long Son Pagoda in the north west of town is Nha Trang's major landmark. It was crafted in 1963 to symbolize the Buddhist struggle against the repressive Diem regime, and around its lotus-shaped pedestal are carved images of the monks and nuns that set fire to themselves in protest.

Po Nagar Cham Towers were built between the eighth and 13th centuries. The largest of the four remaining towers was built in honour of Po Nagar, also known as Lady Thien Y-ana or the Goddess Mother. She spent part of her life teaching weaving and agricultural techniques. The remaining towers were dedicated to different gods, the central tower to Cri Cambhu, the north-west tower to Sandhaka and the south tower to Ganeesh. Not only are the towers famous for their architecture and sculpture, but also for their great significance in terms of history, nationalism and archaeology. The 22.5m tower contains Po Nagar statue sitting cross-legged on Buddha's throne. The 2.6m statue has 10 hands, each holding a specific object illustrating the intellect and power of Buddha.

The Asian Economic Crisis

The splendid country of Malaysia stores a rich stock of diversified heritage, traditions, and culture. The vivid mesh of different religious and racial backgrounds that feature the heritage of Asia in Malays, Chinese, and Indians and the cultural marks left by the Thai, Portuguese, Dutch, and English make Malaysia one of the most beautiful countries that celebrate plurality and diversity.

Despite the differences, the people of Malaysia are the most gentle and most tolerant in the world. Each Malaysian promotes a sense of harmony and peace that emanates not only from within. In every place that tourists travel in this country, they find peace everywhere.

Beach Resorts

As you travel to Malaysia, you should not miss the best beach resorts it has to offer. The Emerald Bay for example is listed as the top ten of the world's beaches and definitely one of the best in Malaysia. The bay is crescent in shape and has the identity of most Malaysia's beaches which have emerald waters. This beach is highly exclusive but travel agents can make sure that everything will be in order when you go there.

The Catai beach in Langkawi Island is another top beach. While most of the coves are privately owned, it still does not stop for tourists to enter this beach scene. The Datai beach is one of the best crescent beaches in Malaysia with excellent diving sites that rival the best beaches in Asia.

Tioman Island is one beach that has still its conservative beauty. It is a very avid tourist spot especially for golfers, nature lovers, and skin divers looking for the best diving spots. Its golden beach at the front and a deep forest backed by a tropical jungle is a paradise for the tourist. Travel agents in Malaysia will tell you that it is best to go there during March to September.

Sights in Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur which is a city filled with skyscrapers houses the magnificent and modern Petronas Towers and other towers. However, much of Kuala Lumpur has its beauty in the old colonial building that symbolizes its rich heritage. The towers take the influence of Moorish, Islamic, and the Tudor tradition.

The Kuala Lumpur Bird Park is one of the largest bird parks in South East Asia. Tourists to Malaysia that go to its capital marvel at the different display of birds in such an urban place. The National Mosque shows off the Islamic tradition of Malaysia to its Asian neighbours. It houses a grand hall that can accommodate a lot of Muslim worshippers, which is also a main reason for the influx of tourists.
