I went to Russia during FIFA world cup 2018 and I got two QF tickets for Brazil vs Belgium match and Russia vs Croatia match. It was a great experience of mingling with fans from so many countries and to enjoy some drink at Pubs. Stadium atmosphere was so electrifying and the chanting was at its best. Size of stadiums, the corridors, the security check was so detailed and impressive. Kazan Arena had wonderful lighting sense where as Sochi Fisht was on the oceanside and the sea breeze was so wonderful. Souvenair shops and the food options at Sochi was stunning, when compared to Kazan. Kazan was a simple city where compared to Sochi's magnificnent mountains, excellent tunnel infrastructure etc. I felt Kazan airport found it difficult to handle the volume of travellers. Unfortunate part of every major sports event is the high price of accomodation... Russia was no different. The prices were easily 4 times of normal cost but the properties were reasonably well f...
I love this Thames and Town walk route as I lived near Whitechapel for sometime. I do enjoy some sun shine while I walk. But we all know how nice the London weather is !!! Let us start around Tower Bridge or St. Katherine Docks, Marina Walk thru St. Katierine way and circle around Hermitage Basin to enter Wapping High Street and walk along till you hit the Prospect of Whitby Pub (oldest river side Tavern / Pub). Walk along Wapping Road, Glamis Road and wonder why Shadwell Basin is still there (just for fun) and take the small right to Thames Path via King Edward Memorial Park. You will get the Thames view soon and walk along till you hit the Jardin's Road. Cross the "T" shaped and walk towards Narrow Street. Do enjoy the view from Breadstreet Kitchen & Bar /Limehouse. You can try a bit of de-tour via Horseferry Road to view Limehouse Basin and come back to Breadstreet also. Once you are near the Dundee wharf, you will enjoy the view of skycrapers and walk alo...
Doing a Sentosa walk is very interesting... it has little bit of everything... Curious ? Here I go: First, the starting point is Vivo city .... haha., i know what you are thinking... dont stop and shop. Just walk across and hit the waterfront. Do start with boardwalk and hit the Sentosa. Walk across the main point outside resorts world and Universal studios.. Take festival walk and reach Merlion Statue. Climb the stairs and stroll through old walkways and climb down under the Beach Station... now, you have two choices.. you can take right and walk in the Silosa Beach... beware... there might not be much of wind. Or take left and head to Tanjong beach. there is road and walkway and you will start seeing beach once you reach Tanjong Beach Club. If you are young and going as group, you can relax by the club and enjoy the Sun and bit of drinks before heading back. I would advise you to do full walk and return to Vivo city for dinner. You have lot of c...
