Spotlight on Beijing Hawaii's Volcanoes Gourmet's Mediterranean



As the host city of the 2008 Olympic Games, the attention of the world will be focused on Beijing next year. China's capital city, and home to 15 million people is a fascinating blend of ancient civilizations and modern advancement, fueled by China's booming economy.

Beijing has seen it all in its long history: Mongolian warlords, dynasties, rebellions, colonialism and modernization. All of these events have left their mark and made Beijing one of the most fascinating cities in the world to visit. Some of the city's must-see attractions include the Forbidden City, a walled palace that was home to emperors that ruled the country for over 500 years. Another impressive sight is Tiananmen Square. Built during the Ming Dynasty, it was used in grand ceremonies to declare who became the emperor and empress. It also houses the Monument to the People's Heroes, Great Hall of the People and the Mao Zedong Memorial Hall. For entertainment, a performance by the Beijing Opera is a must, even if it's just to see the extravagant costumes and make-up. You can view a performance in one of Beijing's famous tea houses and theatres.

The island of Hawaii is home to five volcanoes: Mauna Loa & Kilauea (still active), Hualalai & Mauna Kea (dormant) and Kohala (extinct). At the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park you can learn about these volcanoes and how they shaped the island's landscape.

The Hawaii Volcanoes National Park houses records and displays of over thousands of years of volcanic activity in Hawaii. Most of these events are documented in the Jaggar Museum, along with seismographs and other equipment used by scientists to monitor volcanoes. One of the highlights of a visit to the park is the summit of Kilauea volcano via Crater Rim Drive, a journey that passes through desert and tropical rainforest and has spectacular scenic overlooks along the way. As the Hawaiian islands are the most geographically isolated group of islands on Earth, they are home to unique ecosystems and you can explore some of these in more depth in the park's many nature trails and walks.

There must be something in the water because the areas touched by the Mediterranean are blessed with an abundance of fresh ingredients and flavorsome herbs which have created some of the most tantalizing cuisine you will ever taste.

Southern European countries such as Italy, Spain and Portugal use pasta and rice, combined with seafood, poultry, vegetables, fresh herbs, olive oil and wine to create simple dishes that are absolutely bursting with flavor. Eastern Mediterranean countries such as Greece and Turkey also use plenty of seafood and vegetables but add grounded nuts, mint, yogurt and cheeses such as feta and halumi. These can be eaten with freshly baked bread or thrown into salads but are just as delicious eaten on their own. In North Africa, in countries such as Morocco and Egypt, the cuisine takes a different turn with a bold use of spices such as cumin, saffron and chillies to make tagines and sauces which are used to accompany rice, couscous and meat.
