Alice Springs Hotels and Accommodations
Alice Springs: excellent stay. excellent stay. by Openseas
The Lasseters Casino is located in the Casino and within walking distance to town (approx 10 – 15mins). It’s also backs onto the MacDonnell Ranges and the Golf Course. Other hotels are a few minutes away like the Crowne Plaza and the Desert Palm Hotel. We had previously stayed at the Crowne Plaza and loved our room but decided to try something different this trip, the Casino Hotel was our next choice. Our room 3202 was a suite which I had...

Sanaa Nightlife
Sanaa: CLIMB THE ROOF ! CLIMB THE ROOF ! by DAO
They have a rooftop coffee shop, but they also have a roof top you can literally climb onto where they have the water tanks mounted. I am sure they do not want you to do this, but who’s looking?

The World's Top 10 Ugliest Buildings

The great thing about travel may be seeing the world through a different lens, but that doesn't mean the view is always pretty. With this in mind, the travel experts at VirtualTourist.com have come up with a list of "The World's Top 10 Ugliest Buildings and Monuments." General manager, Giampiero Ambrosi talks about the selections: "Some of these picks have all the charm of a bag of nails while others are just jaw-dropping in their complexity. Love them or hate them, the list is certainly entertaining."



We LOVE hearing from VirtualTourist members and visitors alike. We frequently get notes just letting us know that you're out there and you're enjoying VT. Very often we'll forward the mail around to the rest of the team, to share the love. Drop us a note, we'd love to hear from you.
