			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-386 alignleft" src="http://www.vacationpackageadvisor.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Dubai-Great-Vacation-Destination-8-300x226.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="226" />Individuals who are interested in <strong>planning a vacation</strong> sometime in the upcoming months and are not sure where they would like to go should consider <strong>Dubai, a major city</strong> and cultural hot spot in the <strong>United Arab Emirates (UAE)</strong>, as an ideal destination. Not only are there dozens of fantastic sites to see and explore in the metropolis year-round, there are also some very exciting events and festivals hitting the city this autumn and early winter.</p>
<p><strong>CNN</strong> recently wrote a piece on Dubai for its Destination Adventure series, in which writers for the media outlet travel around the world and report back on their favorite <strong>vacation locations</strong>. Dubai has become increasingly popular over the past two decades due to its rich culture and history, growing importance in the world of business, and reputation for being a mecca for the rich and glamorous.</p>
<p><strong>Indian travelers in Dubai</strong> may not know where to begin their exploration of the city, as it is truly filled with exciting sights, sounds and must-sees. CNN correspondent <strong>Caroline Faraj</strong> suggests that visitors to the metropolis begin with the <strong>&#8220;real&#8221; part of Dubai, or Deira,</strong> a small suburb that is known for its old Arab market, <strong>Souq Nayef.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Souq Nayef</strong> is considered a must-see due to its authentic feel and cultural history.<strong> According to CNN</strong>, individuals can purchase the most delicious bread in the entire UAE right here in this market, and should be able to follow its delectable smell down the narrow alleyways of the district until they come to the bakery which sells it. This bread is also only two cents per loaf, or less than one rupee, a price that simply cannot be beat no matter what country you are in.</p>
<p>There are additional markets in <strong>Dubai besides Souq Nayef </strong>that travelers may be interested in visiting. <strong>Gold Souq</strong> is sure to be an fascinating place to explore for Indian tourists, as it has been described as having the feel of a neighborhood on the subcontinent. Before the <strong>UAE</strong> became independent in <strong>1971</strong>, this district was controlled by Indian citizens for more than three generations. As such, many of the foods and wares you will encounter in this market may be reminiscent of home. Regardless, this is a fun place to check out, if only to see how Indian culture is represented in other countries.</p>
<p>While in <strong>Dubai</strong>, travelers are sure to get hungry, even if they did stock up on the delicious bread from the Souq Nayef market. There are many dining options to choose from in this city, depending on what cuisine you wish to sample and the price-range you are willing to spend. According to Lonely Planet, <strong>Almaz by Momo</strong>, a Moroccan restaurant conveniently located in the Mall of the Emirates, is one of the best eateries in the area. While there is no alcohol served on the premises, the restaurant does serve nonalcoholic champagne that is reportedly very good. Additionally, the Moroccan pastries are to die for and worth stopping by the eatery for a taste alone.</p>
<p>Another great dining option for those who wish to <strong>imbibe is Vu&#8217;s,</strong> a fusion restaurant in the <strong>Jumeirah Emirates Towers</strong>. This is an upscale eatery complete with white tablecloths, multiple sets of silverware and an extensive wine list. Patrons are encouraged to order the slow-roasted pork belly paired with pan-friend scallops, according to the travel guide.</p>
<p>For individuals visiting the city this fall, there are several upcoming festivals and events that may be of interest, including the <strong>Dubai International Film Festival, GITEX Shopper Expo and UIM Class 1 World Powerboat Championship.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-383 alignleft" src="http://www.vacationpackageadvisor.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/travel-responsibly-.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" />In March of 2011, Japan suffered a massive earthquake. <strong>According to National Geographic</strong>, this magnitude 9 event caused a major tsunami that resulted in the destruction of much of the northeastern coast of the country. A combination of this natural disaster and the fiasco at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant have caused tourism in Japan to take a major hit. In response, the Japanese government as well as many travel companies and corporations involved in the tourism industry have launched promotional campaigns to lure visitors back to the Land of the Rising Sun. However, despite the many good deals and discounts being offered, many individuals are unsure if taking a vacation to <strong>Japan</strong> is a safe option and worth the money at this time.</p>
<p><strong>The New York</strong> Times reports that while every corner of the Japanese market has been hurt by the dual disasters of six months ago, the tourism industry has taken the hardest hit. The number of foreign individuals who have vacationed in the country since the <strong>tsunami and nuclear disaster</strong> is at a record low for the season, with just half of the typical amount of visitors having planned trips. According to the <strong>Japan National Tourism Organization</strong>, this is having a negative affect on other aspects of the economy.</p>
<p>As a result,<strong> many hotels, airlines and tour companies</strong> are offering specials. Individuals who are interested in traveling to Japan may be excited by the deals that are currently running, such as the discounted rooms at the beautiful Four Seasons <strong>Hotel Tokyo at Marunouchi</strong>. Due to the <strong>50 percent </strong>reduction in booking that the hotel has experienced since March, visitors to the country&#8217;s capital can now stay in these gorgeous accommodations for less than they would have paid a year ago. The general manager of the Four Seasons property told the news source that he believes that this low-booking trend will continue until early next year.</p>
<p>&#8220;We’ve had two aftershocks in the last couple of weeks, and I get e-mails from clients almost immediately asking if it’s safe to visit,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We don’t really think the high-end leisure traveler will come back until <strong>Chinese New Year 2012</strong> because there’s still too much negative news in the media about <strong>Japan&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p>Regardless of the media coverage that has painted Japan in a less-than-flattering light, most experts state that travel to Japan is perfectly safe at this time, reports <strong>Travel Pulse</strong>, a website dedicated to international tourism. According to the site, much of the negative press related to Japan has been overblown or simply does not apply to the destinations that tourists often flock to. For instance, individuals who are interested in vacationing in the capital city should keep in mind that Tokyo is much too far away from the <strong>Fukushima Daiichi</strong> nuclear plant to have been affected by the resulting radiation. Similarly, while the northeastern coast of Japan was destroyed by the tsunami, other parts of the country were left relatively untouched. Additionally, reconstruction and rebuilding has been taking place in the affected regions for several months.</p>
<p>According to the <strong>Straits Times</strong>, now is the best time to plan a trip to Japan. Although tourism took a hard hit over the past few months, it is slowly recovering and soon, the travel deals currently running will be replaced with more expensive options. Individuals who are interested in visiting the Land of the Rising Sun should do their research and decide on their own whether a trip to this <strong>fantastic and recovering country</strong> is worth the money.</p>
