Nepal - ประเทศเนปาล
But for the Himalaya, Nepal would probably be stuck in the shadow of India but its hard to cast a shadow on a country that includes the highest point on earth, the summit of Mt Everest. Over the last decade, Nepal has seen its share of troubles, but 2008 was a watershed year the rebels became the government, the kingdom became a republic and the king became a civilian. With the fall of the monarchy, the sound of temple bells has replaced the stomp of army boots and peace has returned to Shangri-La.
New Zealand - ประเทศนิวซีแลนด์
Recommending New Zealands too obvious, right? Youre looking for something a bit edgier, under the radar or further off the beaten track. But theres wisdom in the old saying, If it aint broke, dont fi x it, and last time we checked the land of Maori and hobbits certainly didnt need repairing. NZs checklist of essential experiences remains as strong as ever. Spectacular landscapes abound, from sea-level rainforests to plunging glaciers, geothermal springs and barren volcanic plains. Add a hearty pinch of lens-friendly wildlife, proud Maori culture, and fine food and drink, and its easy to see why the natives are so chilled.
Portugal - ประเทศโปรตุเกส
Skirting along the southwestern edge of the Iberian Peninsula, the once-great seafaring nation of Portugal today straddles two very different worlds. For purists, this is a land of great tradition, of saints-day festivals where ox-drawn carts still lumber through flower-strewn streets, and ancient vineyards bring sleepy medieval villages to life during the annual harvest. Meanwhile, in other parts of the country, something decidedly more modern is transpiring. Old city centres, long ago abandoned by the young and upwardly mobile in favour of the suburbs, are slowly being revitalised. A new wave of boutiques, art galleries and cafes are finding new homes in once crumbling old buildings, and locals are beginning to rediscover the allure of vibrant downtown areas.
Suriname - ประเทศซูรินาเม
South Americas smallest country, both in area and population, is easily one of its most diverse. Some three quarters of Surinames people are descended from Chinese, Javanese and Indian labourers that arrived in the 18th century, and West African slaves in the 17th. Add indigenous Amerindians and Lebanese, Jewish and Dutch settlers, and you have the makings for a lot of ethnic tension, right? Fortunately, wrong. Suriname is known for its peacefully coexisting cultures, most emblematically represented by the countrys biggest mosque and synagogue situated side by side in the capital Paramaribo. With everyone speaking different languages, celebrating different holidays and worshipping in different temples, visiting Suriname is really like hitting several countries at once.
USA - ประเทศสหรัฐอเมริกา
Suddenly the USA is cool again! Be it from Barack Obama, Abraham Lincolns 200th birthday last year, or just tightened budgets during the recession, but more Americans (even hipsters) are looking backwards and foreigners too and taking in traditional American historical sites, beginning with Washington DCs freebie zone of museums and heroic monuments.
ปล. แปะรูปแผนที่...เผื่อใครงงว่า ประเทศซูรินาเมอยู่แถวไหน ^^
