And of course, THE biggest and oldest library in the city, the State Library of Victoria, should be number one on your list. This building has been around since the 1800 and it give such a Hogwarts vibe I couldn’t help but joining the many many people there to open my laptop and did some work.

The powerhouse Museum
one of the most interesting museums I had ever been to, inside there are many objects ranging from fashion to science, from modern items to long history artifacts. There are just so many random things in there and that what got me so excited while walking in there, it like a treasure hunts for me. I wish I plan my day ahead so I don't have to rush through the museum and just take my time to read the description of each objects. Also there are several Powerhouse museums in Sydney and each one host different objects.

One Classy & Historical Day in Melbourne
#melbournetrip #australia #musem
One thing I love about Melbourne is that there are so many different activities you can do for free to fill your day. I visited the National Gallery of Victoria and marvel on those amazing pieces of arts and history, and I love how there are so many students discussing arts inside. I wish my school did the same thing when I was a student.
Then just because the weather was nice, I continued my classy day and walked to the Shrine of Remembrance and learned even more about Melbourne’s history.
What a day!

What A Gorgeous City 🏙️❤️
There is so much to see and do and we just scratched the surface.
We did a lot of walking but also used taxis and metro and took a trolley tour.
The list is endless that we fitted in to such a short space of time - tour of US Capitol, Washington Monument (buy tickets ahead of time on the National Park's Website), Lincoln Memorial, Vietnam Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, White House, Ford's Theatre (enjoyed A Christmas Carol in this quaint theatre), Union Station, National Cathedral,and endless Museums.
Wouldn't hesitate in recommending this fabulous city for anyone looking for a long weekend or week away - plenty to see, do and just enjoy the whole atmosphere of this capital city.
Having never been to Washington D.C. I did not know what to expect. The City is beautiful, with wonderful architecture, museums and great restaurants. We stayed at the Mayflower Renaissance Hotel; centrally located and we could walk to the White House. The hotel was beautiful and the service was great; better than I could have hoped for. Stayed seven nights and still did not see everything. Rode the Metro the whole time were there and it was very simple to figure out. I am proud to call this the capitol of our country.

Mighty Stirling Castle
Stirling is less than an hour by train from Edinburgh which makes it a perfect city for day trip. The main attraction in Stirling is indeed Stirling Castle- built in the 13th century, and is one of the grandest castle in Scotland. From the train station, it will take about 15 min to walk uphill to reach the castle. The castle was strategically built on top of a large rock which allowed for excellent view during the many wars through the centuries. Tickets can be purchased online ( with discount), and definitely join the free guided tour which was excellent. there is also a museum for argyle on site which is interesting to visit. #Stirling #scotland #musem #urbanexplorer
So much to see at National Museum of Scotland
There are so many interesting and free museums in Edinburgh but if there is only time to see one, I would definitely pick the National Museum of Scotland. The first hall of the museum is in fact a beautiful atrium with balconies on all levels. The exhibits on display include many areas of sciences, including archaeology, astronomy, geology, social science, modern technology and even fashion and history. Many of the displays are interactive and suitable for everyone of all ages. With the weather being so fluctuating and rain coming so frequently, this is a great place to visit even just for an hour! #urbanexplorer #musem #edinburgh #scotland ,
Iconic Palace Of Versailles In Paris
#2023travelwish #paris #europe #palaceofversailles #unesco #unescoheritage #attraction #musem
Another iconic tourists attraction to visit is the Palace Of Versailles located at Place d'Armes, 78000 Versailles where you will be able to see the many antiques sculptures and paintings being show case.
This palace was built before the 1800s where it is a residence said to be the King Louis XIV where it houses 2000 over rooms where the palace features the hall of mirrors, royal Chapel, royal opera and a beautiful park located right infront of the palace itself.
There is an entrance fee required to this place and a mandatory slot booking due to the popularity of visitors to this place.
It would be a dream vacation again to Paris, especially when I'm doing a solo travel. As the last Paris trip was a family trip.
extraordinary open-air museum
Yorkshire Sculpture Park is an outdoor art museum located in Wakefield, which is 30 min by car from Leeds , or 1.5 hours from Manchester. The property - situated on the 500 acre 18th century Breton Hall estate - is the largest sculpture park in UK. There is a permanent collection as well as temporary artworks which are changed every few months. Artworks from some of the leading artists in the world are on display, including Barbara Hepworth, Henry Moore, and David Nash. We were also excited to see the works by Damien Hirst on our visit.
Majority of the artwork are placed outdoor, with selected pieces inside the 6 galleries. There is also a restaurant inside the main building, where lunch is served - burger, pizza, sandwiches- are all available. There are indoor and outdoor seatings, and the outdoor tables has a great view of the museum park.

Its a small museum on the 3rd floor inside one of the Rockbund buildings. Expect to spend around 1 hour only inside, a drink is offered on entry at the ‘club’ of red wine or mulled wine (no other choices unfortunately).

Madame Tussauds Museum
Address: 40 Imbiah Rd, Sentosa, 099700
Highlights:
At first I thought it would be boring but surprisingly it was fun, especially when I saw the wax version of the founding father of modern Singapore, Mr. Lee Kuan Yew, and Mrs Lee. The wax figure is based on a photo taken at a Valentine's Day event. Omg it was so real and sweet!
The crowd wasn't too bad that day. I managed to take a lot of photos with the wax figures I like. It was divided into few zones, TV & Film, Sports, and IIFA Awards Experience. There were quite a few local celebrities wax figures, like JJ, Stefanie Sun, Zoe Tay, Gurmit Singh, and footballer Fandi Ahmad.
Other popular activities are Marvel 4D Universe, K-Wave Zone, Spirit of Singapore Boat Ride and VR Racing Experience. Highly recommended.

Easily accessible by the most connected MRT, City Hall MRT is National Gallery Singapore. We went on a early afternoon and supprisely it was quite packed. We went to one of the exhibition that is children's festival hightlight. There were many children around and alot of sensory play too. Some of the line-up need to queue up for and there is time limit.
Do keep quiet when here as well if you do explore to other parts of the building. And some of the exhibition do not allow flashlight or allow taking photo at all so do take note of it too.

Growing Up In Singapore
With so many sophisticated games, online education, digital platform being incorporated in our daily part of our lives. Our kids will never know how growing up in the past was like Having the most simplistic things to play with, like 5 stones, marbles, spinning tops, using rubber bands to make a skipping rope even making our home made spinning eraser, challenging our friends whose can spin the longest brings back so much memories. Even though the kids will never understand how we enjoy such stuff, at least they have an understanding of how life was like in the past. This trip can be a very cultural educated exhibition for them.
The musuem has also created several booths for kids this generation to actually have a hands on experience with our early settlers on what a rickshaw puller is all about, what does a rubber tapper do, how a food peddler life is and what they sell and many more.
This exhibition is definitely something you do want your kids to experience. So come on down before the exhibition disappears.
Do remember to bring your local identification as Singaporeans get free access into the musuem!
