One of London’s top attractions and most recognized buildings, Buckingham Palace is a symbol of the British Monarchy and its important place in history. A visit to Buckingham Palace offers a glimpse inside one of the few remaining working royal palaces. While home to an outstanding and historically significant collection of art, the Palace is not a museum. Instead, it is the working headquarters of the British Monarchy, where Queen Elizabeth II carries out her official and ceremonial responsibilities as the Head of State of the United Kingdom and the Head of the Commonwealth. The Palace has been the official London residence of Britian’s sovereigns since 1837, and Her Majesty The Queen is regularly in residence during the working week.


From the outside it’s hard to imagine the immense scale of the Palace’s interior, which has 775 rooms, including 19 State rooms, 52 Royal and guest bedrooms, 188 staff bedrooms, 92 offices and 78 bathrooms. What’s so unique about Buckingham Palace is that it’s a working palace, housing the offices of the workers (about 450!) who support the daily duties of The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh and their family. Despite the royal functions, Buckingham Palace is open to visitors every year who have the chance to see the important State Rooms. This is a rare chance to walk through and see the very same rooms that are still used extensively by The Queen and Royal Family for entertaining and receiving important guests on special occasions.

Vagator Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in north Goa. It is located in Bardez taluk of Goa about 21 km northwest of Panaji. Located away from the other touristy places in Goa, Vagator is clean and quiet. Vagator is split into two as it is separated by a headland. When you stand on the headland facing the sea, the beach on your right is the Big Vagator Beach or North Vagator Beach and the beach on the left is Ozran Beach which is popularly known as Little Vagator Beach. The beach is a good place to spend some time in peace and helps recover from the glitz and crowds of Anjuna.


Swimming is an option but do it if you are confident and at your own risk as there are no lifeguards on the beach. The beach is also an excellent place to have a picnic without disturbance while you enjoy the sunset. Tourist season that starts in December and ends in January makes the stalls and everything in Goa a bit pricey but there are many clubs that are still worth a visit for a nice time dancing to trance and psychedelic music played by digital jockeys who come from all around the world mainly for the very popular Sunburn Festival.

The northern lights, or the aurora borealis, are beautiful dancing waves of light that have captivated people for millennia. But for all its beauty, this spectacular light show is a rather violent event. Energized particles from the sun slam into Earth's upper atmosphere at speeds of up to 45 million mph (72 million kph), but our planet's magnetic field protects us from the onslaught. 


As Earth's magnetic field redirects the particles toward the poles — there are southern lights, too, which you can read about below — the dramatic process transforms into a cinematic atmospheric phenomenon that dazzles and fascinates scientists and skywatchers alike.Though it was Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei who coined the name "aurora borealis" in 1619 — after the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek god of the north wind, Boreas — the earliest suspected record of the northern lights is in a 30,000-year-old cave painting in France.


Since that time, civilizations around the world have marveled at the celestial phenomenon, ascribing all sorts of origin myths to the dancing lights. One North American Inuit legend suggests that the northern lights are spirits playing ball with a walrus head, while the Vikings thought the phenomenon was light reflecting off the armor of the Valkyrie, the supernatural maidens who brought warriors into the afterlife.

Macau happens to be a place that was under Portuguese colonial rule for 300 years and the culture that is followed here is a manifestation of the hybridity.

Be it pasteis de nata (Portuguese egg tarts), Chinese dim sum or anything else, it is all there and this blend and the mysteries makes Macau a beautiful yet complex place to unravel and the happening Macau tourist spots adds to it all.

Ironically, many countries that are vulnerable to climate change are considered tourism hotspots. During COP25, Patricia Espinosa (UNFCCC Executive Secretary) said that climate change is happening in destinations that are dependent on tourism, leading to losses of jobs, homes, lives, and hope. Areas that are close to the ocean as well as mountainous areas and polar regions are especially affected by the impacts of climate change in the form of floods, droughts, heatwaves or hurricanes. While the tourism industry in the Arctic may benefit from the global warming induced reductions in sea ice, tourism destinations in the tropics are projected to experience a decrease in visitor numbers due to more extreme temperatures and increases in the frequency and intensity of storms. In Europe, summer tourism will be redistributed away from Southern Europe to higher latitudes, and warmer regions will note a temporal tourism shift from high to shoulder seasons. Because of its strong links to other sectors, the tourism industry will be among the first to suffer when disasters occur; venues will become shelters and tourism will come to a standstill in the case of an emergency. Despite that, the travel and tourism industry remains one of the most polluting industries regarding carbon emissions, hence perpetuating global warming and natural disasters.


Let’s break it down. The tourism sector contributes to around 8% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions as a result of: aviation (40%), transportation (30%) and the consumption of goods and services (30%) including food and accommodation (Lenzen et al., 2018). Espinosa (UNFCCC) claimed that 8% is huge and not sustainable. 8% makes the sector a bigger polluter than the construction sector. Tourism-related transport CO2 emissions are predicted to increase to almost 2 million tonnes by 2030, a 25% rise from 2016 to 2030, while during the same period international and domestic arrivals are projected to increase from 20 billion to 37 billion (UNWTO).
