Tenerife Holidays – A Personal Favourite

May 21st, 2009 | Admin

When I first thought about Tenerife holidays, I immediately thought of loud bars and nightclubs, stag and hen parties and just general mayhem – After holidaying there several times, I now realise that it has a lot more than this to offer holidaymakers of all ages.

Tenerife is a volcanic island, hence its main attraction being Mount Teide – the volcano. Teide is open to visitors all year round and is located in the North of the island, along with the resort of Puerto de la Cruz. I visited this resort for the day and was pleasantly surprised, although more suited to an older clientele, it had nice beaches and a big tourist attraction called the ‘Loro Parque’, which is a bird/animal park that really does make for a great value day out.

Further South, you can find the resorts of Los Gigantes and Las Caletillas along the East coast, which make for a quieter, more relaxed holiday with little fishing harbours and cafés to unwind.

Golf del Sur is another popular resort, only a 5 minute drive from Tenerife South Airport. This has been a firm favourite for years, with golfers originally, but has now grown into a popular tourist resort for all age groups. There are several golf courses nearby and many more further South in Playa de las Americas and Costa Adeje.

India tour
If you wanna to India tour then never forget to see Taj Mahal
Agra Monument to Love, Mughal Architecture
1st Ajuba in the world

The Taj Mahal attracts above three million visitors a year, all deeply moved by its romance and beauty and the amazing skills of 17th century Mughal craftsmen.
Located on the bank of the Yamuna river, three km south of Agra, the Taj Mahal took 22 years to complete at a cost of trillions of dollars by today’s currency. Twenty thousand men and over 1000 elephants were working on the project, using material from India and Asia, as far as China and Afghanistan.
The Taj Mahal was declared a World Heritage site in 1983 and measures are in place to protect it from pollution. Tourist coaches and cars are kept well away from the gate and access is on foot or by electric vehicle.
Taj Mahal, Agra Monument to Love
India’s top World Heritage site was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan as a mausoleum for his favourite wife, Mumtaz begum, who died aged 38, giving birth to their 14th child. She had never left her husband’s side, even during his military campaigns, and the inconsolable Emperor promised he would build the most beautiful mausoleum ever seen.
True to his word, Emperor Shah Jahan set to work with his first architect to design the world’s most celebrated monument to love. Later, deposed and imprisoned by his son in Agra’s red fort, the Emperor gazed from afar at the marble dome mirrored in the river, grieving until the day he died. He now rests with Mumtaz in the Taj Mahal.
Beautiful Taj MahalCovered in white marble, inlaid with precious and semi-precious stones, a stunning display of floral and geometrical patterns, Arabic calligraphy. Raised on a plinth, it is topped by a white onion dome and framed by four minarets, detached from the mausoleum to minimize damage in an earthquake.
A day is barely enough to appreciate the fine Mughal craftsmanship, from latticed marble screens to decorated archways, from pietra dura to gilded finials. Inside, visitors gaze in silence at the imperial cenotaphs placed above the actual tombs The magnificent entrance gate faces the mausoleum, some 275 meters away, while to ensure symmetry, the red sandstone mosque on the west side of the gardens is mirrored by a replica rest house to the east.
Taj Mahal Garden
Like all Mughal Emperors, Shah Jahan was fond of gardens. Laid out in classical style, the Taj Mahal Persian Gardens are said to symbolise the four rivers and garden of Paradise. Leading to the mausoleum at the far end, they are divided into four sections, a holy number in Islam, each one subdivided into 16 beds. English lawns have replaced many of the original fruit trees and shrubs but the symmetry and feeling of space remain breathtaking.
Water channels and fountains enhance this peaceful oasis, regardless of crowds, while the central pool reflects the mausoleum in all its splendour. The gardens are enclosed by red sandstone walls on three sides but open towards the river.

Butlin’s Got Talent – Exciting Entertainment Coming This Summer

January 10th, 2009 | Admin

For decades families have been coming to Butlins holiday parks mostly because they offer so much more for value on family holidays than the expensive flights and accommodation of a trip abroad.

The reason these holidays are so good for value is the amount of included activities, sports and entertainment on offer.  As well as all the usual summer sports like Basketball, Football and Cricket there’s adventurous activities like trampolining, archery and at one resort: a high rope course.

The entertainment though is what really makes  Butlins Family Holidays special, and this year visitors are getting a phenomenal amount of entertainment from the biggest TV talent search this year: The stars of Britain’s Got Talent!

There are eight acts from the semi finals, finals and even this year’s winning dance act Diversity.  The winners who will be performing for Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth at the Royal Variety Show will be headlining a whole series of acts from all categories.

Father and Son Greek dancers with a twist, Stavros Flatley will be bringing a hint of the Mediterranean to the UK holiday resorts as well as child prodigies like Aiden Davies and Shaheen Jafargholi which promises for an amazing line-up of recognizable stars from Simon Cowell’s talent search show.

There is an act for everyone in the family whether you want to hear the amazing singing voice of Shaun Smith or laugh and dance along with The Faces of Disco, there’s even talented ventriloquist Gareth Oliver and the cringe-inducing DJ Talent bringing his unique talent to the family favourite holiday camps.

With all the various acts appearing this year as well as many other residential and touring acts at the three resorts at Minehead, Skegness and Bognor Regis which ever resort you choose for your next family holiday will be jam packed with plenty of entertainment for all the family.

Also this year the Bognor Regis resort is opening it’s second luxury hotel, the Ocean hotel.  Designed to be ultra modern and stylish but also comfortable and practical the Ocean hotel has been purpose built for family groups; children have their own bunk beds plus flat screen TV and DVD players and there are plenty of dining options both at the hotel and at the resort in general.

This year with all the value for money it is no surprise that Butlins Family Holiday parks are becoming firm favourites yet again for family holidays without all the added hassle of passports and flight times that you’d get with other holidays.

This article was written by Lee Lazarus. Lee is a leading online journalist and here writes for Butlins UK Breaks. Butlins have a huge number of entertainment breaks available, including acts from Britains Got Talent such as Stavros Flatley, Diversity and Shaheem.
