The tickets are expensive but worth it. In Disney World I felt myself unreal: everything is so big, colourful and like directly involved in fairytale. Loved it and want go back! Be prepared for long queues though...

The geysers and hot springs are really nice. The colors are very beautiful and you will see all sorts of things, from bubbling mud to the most beautiful colors in the rainbow. However, I have to admit, after too much exposure to them, you may decide you cannot take the smell of sulfur anymore. You may want to take something (a piece of cloth, an extra shirt or a bandana) to cover you nose and mouth, especially if you have children with you. It may be a good idea to see only a few of them each day. Also, pay attention to the direction of the wind when you decide which way to go when you are walking around them. It is not too pleasant when the vapors keep coming to your face for too longStill, it is a beautiful park and well worth a visit. |

Amazing view. My only real input here is to impress upon all readers the value of the express pass. You couldn't begin to imagine how much time it saves. It is quite costly, however, it is worth every penny as you don't have to wait in line. Compare that to hours via the normal ticketing. The express pass saved us half of a day. It is worth every penny. If you don't go express, don't go. Lines are too long otherwise.

I'm not going to go on and on about the grandeur of it. It's worth seeing.We arrived on a Thursday, about noon, spent the afternoon checking it out. Then returned Friday morning, and spent all day. A day and half is about the right amount of time, I'd say two days max, for most visitors. Of course, if you have aspirations to ride a mule into it, hike into it, or fly over it, maybe you'll need more time. |

Its a nice view, the glass is clear so you will have no trouble seeing the town. Its especialy nice when you go here later in the day the lights are beautiful. The only thing is the lines, they made us wait about 2 hours before you can get on. I suggest going when its a wendsday or Tuesday when its less- busy. Or take the subway earlier in the morning like my brother did. They have a restaurant at the top in case your hungry. And they built a higher deck on the top which alows you to see even higher the originaly. Its fantastic!

Do yourself a favor and get a private guide to take you to the wall. I arranged mine through the hotel and had a driver and guide for the day for $100 dollars.Steer clear of Badaling and instead to the extra couple of hours to Jinshanling or Simitai. Simitai is a killer hike with incredible views and fewer hawkers chasing you. You can't get to the very top of the ridge; before you get to the very top, you'll encounter a kid in an army uniform who'll tell you it's the end of the road. This must be the most boring job on earth. Jinshanling is a less impressive stretch, but has better views of long stretches of the wall. There are more hawkers and through-hikers on this stretch. |

The Opera House is one of the most memorable things you will see in Sydney only really challenged by the Harbour Bridge. I recommend the tour as it's cheap and the only way you can see inside the concert halls without paying to see a show. However if you don't want to take a tour you can see the beauty of it from outside.

The exterior and interior of the Gugg is just incredible. What can I say, Frank Lloyd Wright is an architectural genius. The actual art inside was nothing special and the exterior was under construction when we went, but just walking through the circular interior is a very cool and original experience.

I got to go to the 3rd level of the Eiffel Tower September 16, 2008. I was glad I did. The views from up there were awesome! I was able to take a number of great photos up there. That said, there was one major drawback to this attraction: queues/lines. The day I went, the line was short to get to the 1st and 2nd levels but, it was long to get to the 3rd level. I waited something like 20 minutes to ride the second elevator to the top. I think this attraction is worth doing but, you better be prepared to wait in line to get to go up to the various levels. FYI, the higher you go on the tower, the more you'll pay. I forget what it cost me to go to the 3rd level which is the most expensive. |
