Planning your first trip to Maldives for a honeymoon or a romantic sojourn?
Maldives is paradise in the Indian ocean and it is the place where you can actually relax.
Do not miss going to Male - though it is a city it is quite laid-back but still worthwhile going to see how the locals live.
If you are into diving there are a few good diving sites near to the island.
Maldives is made up of many islands but one of the islands you must see is Huraa Island. It is not so crowded with tourist and you can experience the Maldivian life as it is.
If you are planning a day trip to any of the islands, Rashdoo Island is an established island and its sheltered lagoon is great for water sports and snorkeling.

If you are a first time visitor in China and you want to cover the whole country (which might as well take you a year: my "hometown Hainan Island" already has the size of a country by itself…), air travel in China is the fastest and most ideal way to cover China.
Domestic air travel in China is well developed. The best way to overcome the language barrier when making bookings is:
- calling your hotel’s travel desk to get your tickets or
- getting the tickets at the airport itself.
Air travel in China is organized by 3 major domestic airlines. Apply for an air mileage card if you foresee a lot of air traveling.
