Palmerstone, The Last Island In The World

The sea and the island will be among the most attractive travel destinations for thousands of travel thirsty people around the world. Keeping in mind their travel needs, many countries of the world are constantly making profits by improving their seas and nearby islands. These places full of extraordinary beauty can win the hearts of everyone. Palmerstone is such an extraordinary island. However, Palmerstone is thought to be different from the other ten islands because it is called the last island in the world.
About one hundred fifty years ago, in 1863, an English gentleman named William Masters discovered the island after overcoming many adversities. He married Akakaingoro, the daughter of the Cook Island chief, and moved to the island. Although William began settling many years ago today, Palmerstone is still almost isolated from the civilized world. Only 62 people live on the whole island.
There are very few people living in this place all over the world where the population is growing in time and they are all descendants of William. Only twice a year a ship sails to the island with the necessary supplies. At this time any tourist can come if he wants. However, if the tourist cannot catch the ship on his return, he will have to spend the rest of the year on the island. Because there is no mobile network or internet facility.
Many believe that the owner of Palmerstone Island is William Masters. But in fact it is not. The first owner of the island was a British businessman named John Brander. William looked after the island on behalf of this merchant. As soon as he started living permanently on the island, he started planting numerous palm trees around the island.

At first, the British trader used to come to Palmerstone every six months to collect coconut oil. But gradually the rate of coming to the island began to decrease. Fishing is the occupation of most of the people of the island. They also have a small office of their own. There are also schools for the education of the island's children. The people of the island visit once a year. However, this tour is limited to any of the surrounding islands.

How to go Palmerstone

It is only possible to reach the island by navigating the Pacific Ocean for nine days and crossing stormy storms. Since there are thousands of obstacles on the way to the island, usually no one wants to come to the island. The island of this extraordinary beauty is still a huge surprise to many in this modern age. But if someone is in dire need or has a desire to enjoy. Then you have to reach Tahti by air from London via Los Angeles. Then you have to go to the island by boat from Tahti. That boat also took five days to reach here again. But once you cross a hundred obstacles and reach the island, you will see a group of people ready to greet you by boat.

Cambodia Tour

Cambodia Tour Although Colombia and Cambodia are located on two continents, many people confuse the two countries. Cambodia is a small country in Asia. Between Vietnam and Thailand, the country is famous for a number of prehistoric sites. However, despite being an Asian country, the number of western tourists is a bit higher than that of Asians. Those who are planning to travel to Thailand or Singapore can visit this country with an extra day or two in hand. There will be no problem with visa here. Visas can be easily obtained at the Cambodian Embassy in Thailand or Singapore for a fee of BDT 4,200. Since there is no Cambodian embassy in Bangladesh, there is no way to get a visa in advance. However, the government of the country has recently provided on-arrival visa facility for Bangladeshi citizens, so Bangladeshi passport-holders will be able to get visa even if they go there. A 45-minute flight from Bangkok or a one-and-a-half hour flight from Singapore will cost 11,000-16,000 rupee...

Burj Al Arab - A global icon of Arabian luxury

Burj Al Arab - A global icon of Arabian luxury The Burj Al Arab's graceful silhouette – meant to evoke the sail of a dhow (a traditional wooden cargo vessel) – is to Dubai what the Eiffel Tower is to Paris. Completed in 1999, this iconic landmark hotel sits on an artificial island and comes with its own helipad and a fleet of chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce limousines. Beyond the striking lobby, with its gold-leaf opulence and attention-grabbing fountain, lie 202 suites with more trimmings than a Christmas turkey. The Burj Al Arab is worth visiting if only to gawk at an interior that’s every bit as garish as the exterior is gorgeous. The mood is set in the 590ft-high lobby, which is decorated in a red, blue and green color scheme and accented with pillars draped in gold leaf. The lobby atrium is tall enough to fit the Statue of Liberty within it. If you’re not checking into the Burj Al Arab, you need to make a reservation for cocktails, afternoon tea or a meal to get past lobby securi...
