Shopping in Asia

Not too many people go on vacation without putting aside a lot of time for shopping, whether it’s for clothing, miscellaneous or souvenirs. When you’re in Asia, you’ve picked the right place since 8 of the 10 largest malls in America are in Asia. The SM Mall of Asia has a huge IMAX theater, an Olympic sized swimming pool and fills up four buildings. The Beijing Mall has over 3.4 millions square feet and is a true suburban mall in China, a half hour from Beijing. In consists of four levels 8,000 car capacity parking and a man-made beach.

SM City North Edsa is another mega mall that promises you excitement and lots of shopping space. With over 100 retail stores and eateries, this five-story complex also includes a skating rink, bowling alley, 12 cinemas and plans for an IMAX theater. After hearing about 3 of Asia’s fantastic shopping malls, you may think malls are all they have to offer. Far from it. Where ever you travel, you’ll find little shops and boutiques, many of them specially designed for tourists and visitors. Make sure you bring plenty of money and reserve lots of time. Some shopper owners allow loans such as payday loans for their customers to but things for short term.

Mexico- Place of my Dreams

All my life I’ve wanted to travel to Mexico on vacation. I haven’t been there yet and still am planning this big vacation. I don’t yet know where I’ll go but am thinking of Cancun. I’ve heard nothing but fantastic stories about Mexico and many of the cities there but particularly Cancun. I’ll love the cruise and know I’ll have the time of my life bartering with the many vendors in Mexico. You can hardly walk down any street without seeing venders trying to sell their goods by offering them at outrageous prices, waiting for and wanting you to start bartering. I’ve even been told that they’re actually disappointed if you don’t start offering them a lower price.

Food in Mexico is literally to die for. If you think stopping at your local Taco Bell or Mexican Restaurant is a treat, you’ll love the cuisine you get in Mexico, where they know how to spice things up. Nightlife in Cancun offers some great nightspots and clubs. Be careful that you don’t get lost or forget where your hotel is located however or you may be in a jam. There are many excellent vacation specials going to many Mexican locations so start saving and packing—I may see you there.
