			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Beautiful-Spot-in-London.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-936" src="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Beautiful-Spot-in-London-300x225.jpg" alt="eautiful Spot in London" width="228" height="171" /></a>Whether you are visiting London on holiday, or a business trip, we all have an inherent desire to make the most of this beautiful city that is steeped in historical grandeur and breath-taking architecture. It&#8217;s a myriad of ancient beauty merged with modern technology and cutting edge designs, exuding a cosmopolitan, multi-cultural spirit. The city accommodates a variety of visitors and although we can&#8217;t literally get to each and every beautiful spot, a panoramic view gives a distinct feeling that you&#8217;ve embraced the city&#8217;s beauty as a whole.</p>
<p>Ideally, the best places to see the panorama of the city is from an elevated spot, without any restrictions or anything to hinder your view. This means you&#8217;ll need to find access to a tall building or structure that supports these kinds of 360˚ vistas. Imagine being atop a building that affords you a view of all that this dynamic city has to offer! In the evening, when the sun fades and the lights of the city begin to sparkle, there is something very special about London for every visitor to appreciate.</p>
<p><strong>A View from the Top</strong></p>
<p>It really is no surprise that views from the tallest buildings in London is some of the most spectacular. What&#8217;s more, even though some of these sky scrapers house offices, many of them also enjoy sharing the beautiful views their spaces are afforded and boast bars or restaurants. Here, you could enjoy a cold glass of bubbly accompanied by canapés as you cast your eye over the city landscape.</p>
<p>Tower Bridge, one of London&#8217;s greatest attractions can be seen illuminated in the evening &#8211; a reminder of the old architecture now with a modern twist. If you&#8217;re lucky enough to have time to explore the Tower Bridge &#8211; be sure to go on the Exhibition Tour where you&#8217;ll be able to gaze down 42 meters to the flowing Thames below. Take a stroll along the walkways and educate yourself about the inner works of one of the most famous bridges in the world by visiting the Victorian Engine Rooms.</p>
<p>From one of the tallest buildings vantage points, following your eye across the skyline to the south bank of the Thames from Tower Bridge, you won&#8217;t help but notice the striking round glass building, the Greater London Authority. This environmentally friendly, distinctive glass globe acts as the City Hall and features a purpose-built assembly chamber and offices for the GLA. This spherical building, illuminated at night, provides a stunning addition to the London panoramic cityscape.</p>
<p>Another building that cannot be missed when observing the city from an elevated perspective is Guy&#8217;s Hospital, and on its right, the London Bridge, which goes over the river Thames. Illuminated at dusk, the bridge is truly magnificent sight. With champagne in hand and colleagues, family or lover by your side, you&#8217;ll find the twinkling light of the city mesmerizing as you gaze down from your skyscraper bar. Keep an eye out also for the distinctive large oblong building, the Tate Modern Art Gallery, which houses a collection of international modern art from 1900 to the present day.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/A-path-in-the-Jurassic-Coast-England.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-880" src="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/A-path-in-the-Jurassic-Coast-England-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="257" height="168" /></a>The Jurassic Coast, southern England, is a landscape of cliffs along the Southwest Coast Path, which is considered as a natural World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Faced with the Channel, to over 153 kilometers, the cliffs are a sign of landforms in geology; both from the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous are the ideal place for field studies of scientific research.</p>
<p>It is also considered as a wonder of nature in the UK, ancient rocks, landslides and erosion, the beaches and bays, bare landscape of great scientific value, but also a particular natural beauty. Although the Jurassic Coast is often dangerous for navigation by waves and storms, the place is from the ground a relaxing stroll. From the city of West Bay is easily accessible to the Jurassic Coast, as well as from Abbotsbury, Bridport, Budleigh Salterton, Exmouth, Seaton and others. The Jurassic Coast includes such scenic spots as the Old Harry Rocks, famous for its chalk-white color.</p>
<p>To make the ride more recommended, the South West Coast Path can be explored on foot, though of course this is not a short trip: the trail in total is about 1,000 kilometers, and is the longest for walking in the UK. To make matters worse, the path in a hilly area also has a physical difficulty. All runs along the Devon and Dorset coast, subsumed under the term Jurassic Coast. Geological value and natural beauty in the English style make no doubt, a highly recommended combination.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-317" title="Blackpool Holiday Location" src="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Blackpool-Holiday-Location.jpg" alt="" width="201" height="151" />Blackpool is the most famous holiday location in the UK. For decades families have packed their suitcases and headed off to stay in a hotel, visit the Pleasure Beach, play by the sand and experience a view along the coastline from up high in the Blackpool Tower. A major focal point of the city is the active tram network that is used today as much as it has been in years past.</p>
<p>Blackpool hotels can be found all the way along the coast, from peer to peer. Such is the popularity of Blackpool as a tourist attraction, it is fair to say there are more guest houses and apartments for tourists than there are for residents near the coast where all the attractions can be found. Many of the Blackpool guest houses look out over the illuminations which are another famous feature of the resort. This is an integrated light display including over 40,000 light bulbs which helps the tourists and locals understand they are in a truly magical place. This starts in August most years.</p>
<p>Choosing where to stay in Blackpool is no easy task, especially with so much on offer. Another issue can be that if you choose to stay in Blackpool during a busier time of year, you may have problems finding a place that is available unless you choose to plan it well in advance. That is also a great option if you wish to take advantage of many offers and discounts that become available if you are prepared.</p>
<p>When you are deciding where to stay in Blackpool an important thing to consider is what you intend to get out of your stay. Should you be looking to experience the true essence of Blackpool then you will most likely be looking to stay along the coastline where you will be within easy walking distance of the major attractions. A downside of that is that you may end up finding it slightly too busy and long for some calm instead.</p>
<p>If you are looking to stay in the Blackpool apartments, or hotels in Blackpool that are slightly out of the city then you will also have to consider the long walking distance that you may have to embark on to get you where you want to be. Despite this, you may enjoy the tram ride that is available with good regularity.</p>
<p>The Blackpool guest houses that are among the most popular also have entertainment and cabaret on in the evening, whilst others even have swimming pools and fitness centers inside. Whether you would like to stay in a hotel like this may depend on many factors, not least your budget and your preferences. The prices can fluctuate quite considerably, especially depending on the time of year, the location of the hotel and the facilities that are available inside it. In order to get to grips with the likely costs of a Blackpool holiday it is recommended that you go online and search for prices there, however don&#8217;t forget to have enough money left over to have a great time when you are away</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-190" title="travel destination city" src="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/travel-destination-city.jpg" alt="travel destination city" width="291" height="301" />Businesses that take place in a city can become a source of cash income, especially tourists. A high level of <a href="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/category/travel-business">business</a> attracts entrepreneurs, and by default, filled with <a href="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/category/hotels-and-lodging">hotels</a>, restaurants, and promotes the development of the city. Something they know very well the most important cities on the planet. To measure the power of a city, there is an index that has been released recently. Mori Memorial Foundation of Japan hits a Powerful Cities World Index, and as expected, there are not many surprises. New York is the most valued of doing business, besides being a consolidated center of innovation. New York, is the foremost reference city worldwide in the artistic, research, and of course to visit. Next in order of importance, London, Paris, Tokyo and Singapore.</p>
<p>However, other cities than in areas more specific. For example, London is the city&#8217;s leading cultural events, while Tokyo is among the powerful cities, the most sustainable in its environmental policies.</p>
<p>The study was conducted based on 35 major cities worldwide, categorized according to a criterion that attempts to measure the &#8220;power&#8221; of the city according to categories ranging from economy, innovation, cultural activity, sustainability, liveability and accessibility. To arrive at a valuation with some precision, we evaluate the infrastructure and services, and evaluative consultations take place among persons of eminence from different countries. Of course, after much study, the final result is not too many surprises.</p>
