Hello people, I am preparing my blog and I am looking for some tourist attraction within your country and neighborhood. I am doing a travelling website and hope people can give me the attractions in your country. I would like to find out the websites for the authority of the tourist attraction or the tourist promotion board. Thanks

I must say there is a lot of information but the website needs a design update, at least that is what I think, it is just too difficult to get all the important information in screen. I need to scroll up and down. But then again I hope there are more site like that so my website would stand out right. hahaha.

Okay, if you want something bigger than Disneyland, then just about any place in Los Angeles or Anaheim will do. Seriously, there is way too much too name. I live in the Los Angeles area, but I am not too far from Orange County, and there is so much to do here. It's never ending. There are the museums, the Staple Center, the Convention Centers, The Getty Center and Getty Villa, the Libraries, the beaches, the malls, the concert halls and venues, and there is just too much to do here.

Good for u!! BUt what kind of tourist attractions are u gonna be promoting?? Those already popular ones such as those leaning pisa tower, or effiel tower etc?? It's kinda boring huh?? I would recommend u, doing some tourist attraction which are not overly commercialised yet, and they are equally stunning.. haha =D If possible, have some wildlife areas, or nature scenary etc.. Forget about places rich in history, but go for something interesting enough to make one hooked.. hehe

Well I am not promoting anything, just serving people with the knowledge of travels attraction around the world, I hope to share some and people would come by and share more. Introduce their backyard and people they have been too as well as warn people about the lousy service and bad experience they have.

I think if you were to look for places of attraction, you can do it by searching on the net instead of asking for other recommendation, this will be the fastest way of finding a good location. There are so many nice places in this world that you can easily search with the photo and explanation. The best thing is you visit the place by yourself and this will help you know the place better. Asking for opinion is one of the method but this will be a bit slow. :)

Jamaica offers plenty of activities and attractions – from relaxing on a beach to visiting a national park. Here are some recommendations for getting the most out of your visit: Dunn’s River Falls This spectacular waterfall is one of Jamaica’s most famous attractions and is located near Ocho Rios. Taking a hike down the falls is a popular activity. Swim with the dolphins While you’re near Ocho Rios head to Dolphin Cove to take a swim with the bottle-nosed dolphins and enjoy the tropical rain forest surroundings; it’s one of the island’s most popular attractions. Bob Marley Museum Jamaica is the birthplace of Bob Marley and he is celebrated everywhere, but none more so than at his tribute museum. If you’re looking to follow Marley’s roots start at Nine Mile – where he was born. Blue Lagoon This truly is a blue lagoon – the striking colour of the lagoon being a result of its depth - approximately 200 feet. If you’re after a relaxing day alternative to the beach take a picnic and enjoy leisurely dips in the lagoon. Go Diving The coral reefs remain great tourist attractions and there are some great dive areas close to all the major resort towns. Great spots include nurse sharks, eagle rays and jellyfish. Relax on the beach Most resorts have their own private beach, others charge a small admission fee. There’s a whole mix of beaches – from quiet secluded coves through to those buzzing with entertainment and music. Take a Cultural and Historical Tour Explore Jamaica's ecological treasures - from limestone cave labyrinths on the north coast and gushing waterfalls to mineral springs with curative powers. An historical stroll around Jamaica’s former capital, Spanish Town will reveal stately homes and grand monuments Go for a Hike Follow one of many hiking and climbing trails up the Blue Mountains to heights above 7,000ft. The mountains are home to more than 200 bird species and 800 species of plants. There are hundreds of paths connecting villages around the mountains. As an alternative to walking try cycling. You can also go here for more information on your research for your Blog. Hope this helps.http://top10travel.webs.com or http://www.facebook.com/pages/Top-10-Travels-Destination/248489458896?ref=ts
