Siem Reap Cambodia Day 2: Angkor Wat, Bayon, Banteay Srei, Roluos Group Temples, Bakong, Preah Ko and Lo Lei
We had an adventurous day for our first day in Siem Reap and we were looking forward for another one for day two. I booked our tour package on AirAsiaGo.com but it was only for half day. Thus, we added another half day tour thanks to the advice from the tour guide. We paid extra for it but it was all worth it.
We were supposed to leave our hotel at 4.30 am …

Sunset Fun at Bakheng Hill, Siam Reap, CAMBODIA
We never had so much fun exploring temples like we did in Siem Reap. It was our third day in Siam Reap and we ended the day with the sunset at Bakheng Hill. We ventured to 12 places on that day itself, the tour guide was amazed by our energies. He kept on telling us most of the temples are the same. I can’t blame him after 12 places as that day it was as hot as 42 degree Celsius, most people would …

Dining at Solar De Tejeda, Cordoba, ARGENTINA
There is no better place to dine than Solar De Tejeda. Located in the UNESCO heritage site itself, the restaurant is next to historical buildings and monuments.
We went there for dinner and the place is packed. Place is slightly small but the environment there is okay.
We ordered the Grilled Rib Cut for (ARS 33/US$8.70/RM27.80). My friend Chuan ordered extra 2 eggs for it. The Patagonian region of Argentina is very popular for its grill food and its beef. The grilled rib cut is grilled …

The Zambezi Sun, Zebras and Victoria Falls of Zambia: 4×4WorldExplorer.com 2008 Trans-Africa Adventure
An interview with veteran 4×4WorldExplorer.com traveler, Steven Ng told me about a beautiful fall in Zambia during the Trans Africa 2008 expedition. The group of 4×4WorldExplorer.com drove from South Africa back to Malaysia. The journey took more than a month.
It came no surprise that there was no better accommodation rather than the Zambezi Sun if you wanted to stay near the Victoria Falls of Zambia.
Instead of the usual welcome drink, the group got a shock by the welcome …

The Tribute to the Queen: The Victoria Fountain of Malacca
A gift for the Queen remains in the heart of Malacca for centuries. Malacca once ruled by the British from 1826 to 1946, for more than 100 years. For the remembrance of the late Queen Victoria Regina, the Malaccans erected the fountain in 1901 coinciding with the Diamond Jubilee. A Diamond Jubilee is a celebration to mark a 60th anniversary of the reign of the King or Queen.

Pineapple Tarts near Jonker Street – Pooh Keon Enterprise, Malacca, MALAYSIA
Melaka is famous for its UNESCO heritage site. For its food, it will be the chicken rice ball, the “satay celup” and the pineapple tarts. Pineapple tarts and pineapple rolls are everywhere nowadays in Jonker Street, Melaka. However, finding a good authentic pineapple tart shop could be tough.
My parents have been patronizing a shop near Jonker Street for years. It’s called Pooh Keon Enterprise.
The most notable reason buying from this shop is because the pineapple tarts here are freshly made. …

*Written by Wilson Ng*
Traveling from Buenos Aires to Cordoba was not as tiring as I thought. As the second largest city of Argentina, Cordoba is one of the first Spanish colonial capital of the region.
This is how the city looks like from Sheraton Hotel, Cordoba. We reached Cordoba late in the evening.
We took a cab to tour the city as well as having a nice dinner there. Taxi fares were cheaper than Buenos Aires. Weather was really hot as it’s summer now. Ranging around 32c and above. In general, Argentinians …
