You can reach the desert of Dubai in about an hour drive from the city centre. When I arrived in the desert, I headed to the place where camels were while enjoying a powerful dune drive with a 4WD car. Every camel was quiet and very cute.

The most famous place in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, is the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, which is very large and is lined with glittering chandeliers and Persian carpets. This is my recommended spot in Dubai, which was also the location for the movie Sex and the city2.

Speaking of Cappadocia, hot air balloons that spread all over the sky from the early morning are famous. The big sky, the wide earth, and the moment the sun rises are so impressive that you cannot express it in words. There are many balloon companies, so I'm lost, but I recommend choosing a company having good reviews even if it is expensive ♪

The ruins of Petra in Jordan, which was the setting for the movie Indiana Jones. I explored an archaeological site that is 8 kilometers long. It is far from the capital city of Amman, so it is recommended to take a tour or hire a taxi.
Wadiram is located south of the Petra archaeological site in Jordan. The endless red desert, rocks, and blue sky seemed to get lost in a different star. I could see a superb starry sky at night. When you come to Jordan, let's go to Petra Ruins, Wadiram, Dead Sea! ︎
Efes is a World Heritage Site, also known as Pompeii in Turkey. The ruins such as the meeting place, hall, and library are beautifully left, and you can feel the people living at that time. There was already such a big library in the 2nd century (first photo). I was surprised.

Pamukkale is located in the southwestern part of Turkey. It is a lime lake with natural hot springs all year round. To protect nature, take off your shoes and climb barefoot. The scenery and the blue hot springs that you can see while walking on the white ground are truly spectacular. The ancient ruins of Hierapolis and the archaeological pool are also nearby.

It is a luxury resort in Turkey that is often visited by various celebrities as a vacation. It is a spacious harbor town with pastel colored buildings. Many hotels also face the sea, and you can hear the sound of the waves from your room. Midier Dormas with pilaf sandwiched between mussels is delicious.

It has never been repaired since the palace was built in the 15th century, and it is a tile with beautiful colors and patterns. Harem is also included at an extra charge. It's very large and it's hard to go around by ourselves. So I recommend you to have a guide.

I visited Ihara vally on a green tour of Cappadocia. The magnificent nature was very pleasant, and I felt the hiking course of about 2 km in a blink of an eye.
Dubai has a famous beach called JBR Beach. The sea here is very transparent and the beach is very beautiful with smooth sand! There is a mural on the road by the sea. The highlight is this mural, which looks like a real giraffe.
