Long
holidays are a great time to catch up with family and friends, and for this
year's Qing Ming Jie festival, why not consider a trip to a new place?
Here
are five travel destinations that we think will give you a peek into a new culture
and way of life, that's very different from yours.
Athens
Athens
is one of the oldest cities in the Western world, as it had been the center of
Greek civilization some 4,000 years ago. There are many remnants of its rich
history even today, such as the Acropolis, Parthenon, Temple of Hephaestus,
Temple of Olympian Zeus and Ancient Agora. This city also abounds with museums,
making it a top destination for history-buffs as well as for anyone who wants
to get a peek into its rich past. No wonder, almost every airline has flights to Athens.

Abu Dhabi
If
you want to explore a new culture, and yet not travel too far, then Abu Dhabi
is the place for you. Its Sheik Zayed Mosque, Yas Waterworld, Ferrari World,
Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi Mall and Al Ain National Museum offer a diverse and
interesting experience for travellers. Availability of abundant flights to Abu
Dhabi and its friendly culture make it a great destination.

Johannesburg
Another
destination that is sure to intrigue you is Johannesburg. Its Apartheid Museum
shows you a different world while its Monte Casino Park is a great place for
young kids. Eco-tours, nature tours, Constitution Hill and safaris add to the
charm of this city. Due to its immense popularity as a tourist destination,
there is no dearth of flights to
Johannesburg.

Nairobi
Nairobi
is the perfect blend of east and west, and is close to home as well. It offers
an up-close experience with nature as you can hike through the Ngong Hills,
interact with animals at the Nairobi National Park or go for a relaxed boat
ride on its pristine shores. This city is growing as a tourist destination, so there
are many flights to Nairobi.

Munich
Munich
is a typical German city that offers Bavarian food, local cheeses and spectacular
modern art. It is a financial hub too, so it's well-connected by flights. Plenty
of nightlife options and a well-structured architecture make it a great choice
for a fun vacation.
