My Hang gliding experience - part1

Hang gliding, one of my favorite sport activities is an adventurous way of spending time. I have many experiences in hang gliding. It makes you energetic and gives you the satisfaction of having played a great game. Hang gliders are tough to handle and they take lot of time to unfold it and make it ready for gliding. They also take the same amount of time to fold them and pack it. I am an individual glider and I used a fast convertible glider which suits me very well and easy to glide. It was a month of winter, a perfect season for hang gliding. I glided over the snowy slopes and green meadows which was a splendid experience inhaling fresh air and having lots of fun gliding. This sport also requires lot of courage to play and it’s very essential to enjoy playing the game. Otherwise, we will not be able to play the game in a peaceful mood. Fear should not be there in our minds and if at all we have any fear we should come over it. I was a guy full of fear when I started playing this sport but then developed courage to play this game. Now I enjoy playing the game with ease and comfort.

Most amazing island ever built by mankind than nature

Isn’t that surprising you? Even I too astonished by protruding my eye balls after I have visited Palm Islands in Dubai. We all know about the Dubai which is well equipped with oil in the underground. Apart from this there is a lot to confess and discuss about this richest country. The best thing that is ever built or least significant to build is the Palm Islands. My tourist club committee offered me a free trip to Dubai, this is my first visit but so far it is my best visit. I taught of critic after being there to three largest artificial islands in the world. They are located off the coast of the United Arab Emirates in the Persian Gulf, It adds nearly 500 km to the Dubai beaches. I believe the islands took nearly a billion cubic meters of sand and sand. It is under construction and what it meant to me is that it will take nearly 15 years to build the entire wonder, nearly it will uphold over 100 luxury hotels in the future, which means it create records for most fabulous hotel at the same place. I believe that as long as the world exists, it keep up records for artificial island all the time, after it is being built.

Visit to waterfalls

Travelling is a leisure time activity and one of the most interesting activities. While travelling we visit lot of places and learn some information about those places. I have a special interest towards places where there are waterfalls and rivers and I enjoy taking bath in those waterfalls and rivers. Recently, I was exploring the southern parts of India for such waterfalls and rivers. I went to a place called courtallam where there are lots of waterfalls. It is a place which is located near the kanyakumari district of Tamilnadu. There are many waterfalls like main falls, five falls, Tiger falls etc. it was e great trip and I enjoyed it a lot. There were lots of monkeys around the falls. They were very good at snatching the belongings of the visitors. It was rainy season there and the amount of water flow in the falls was very heavy and I was not allowed to move up the waterfalls to take bath. So, I took bath in waterfalls only at the lower level, only where everyone were allowed to take bath. I had a feeling of having missed a golden opportunity of taking bath in all the waterfalls there. Then, I decided that I should not miss these waterfalls the next time I come to India and returned back home.

Travel rural life

Nowadays most of the people in the world prefer life in the city when compared to life in the rural areas because of the facilities available in the cities. But, they forget the beautiful places and nature of rural life. I am person living in the city and I visited a rural area nearby to spend my holidays. I would like to share the experiences I had in that area. The people there were kind hearted and had a tendency of helping others. The houses were very small and the people there work in the farms nearby and some have their own lands. They cultivate crops based on the seasons and earn money out of it by selling the vegetables, rice they grow in a market nearby from where vegetables are sent to the cities nearby. The phenomenon that attracted me a lot is the fresh and pleasant air which is not available in cities nowadays. It is far better than the polluted air in the cities. The other kind of business they carry out is rearing animals and selling the products they get from them. They eat fresh and nutritious food when compared to ours and they remain healthy. Rural life is beautiful and healthier.

Travel historical and religious places

Travelling is one of the best ways of spending our holidays in an enjoyable and useful manner. By travelling we learn about places and get to know the various kinds of people, their lifestyle, culture, heritage and visit beautiful places. I am sharing one such traveling experience here. I went to a historical place near my hometown where there are monuments and various worship places. People of various ethnic groups visit these places and spend time there. These places provide peace to the mind and soul also. There are saints and religious heads in these places, who provide messages which help us lead our life in a pious and perfect way. People get blessings from them and they believe that their life becomes better in many factors like wealth, knowledge, studies, health etc. The other features of such places are the goods they sell, both religious and non religious. These goods are of various types and are available only in these places and not available in other places. These goods include special ornaments made of special materials, cosmetics, dresses, books etc. the next good thing available there is the food and there are many restaurants who prepare food according to the visitors of the place and satisfy them.
