In 2007, the theme year of the Three Kingdoms Tour will be peace and break.

Although in the past, one or two words such as culture year and art year popped up in front of our eyes every year, this year, for the first time, various themes met so densely.

2007, Malaysia Tourism Year. Malaysia has selected 50 celebration items from more than 200 large-scale activities, and sincerely invites China tourists.

In 2007, China-Sri Lanka Friendship Year.

With a long history of friendship more than two thousand years ago, let's turn our curious eyes to this "gem country" with a cadence name.

Similarly, 2007 was also the "Spanish Year" in China. Although the European tour is mainly concentrated in these countries in western Europe, Spain, which dances enthusiastically in flamenco, keeps up with our pace.

For tourists, these countries are like "familiar strangers". Although familiar, but only concerned, the lack of amazing performance. Therefore, in this issue, we will tell you that the most detailed and intimate activity guides of these three countries in the theme year will certainly not be lacking, and the original travel recommendations of local tourism experts will not be lacking.

Because of the theme year, we will see rare activities on weekdays, hear songs and laughter, face the friendly smiles of local people towards China tourists, and get new convenience and preferential treatment.

Now, the tourism of these three countries, together with the theme year, is like a magnetic field, which attracts our attention tightly. It brings excitement, but it is not just the boring journey of tourists that is broken.

Old love becomes new love Malaysia

Travel, like love, is always unforgettable for the first time, such as Southeast Asia and Malaysia. In 2007, Malaysia made its debut again because of the Malaysia Tourism Year. Throughout the year, Malaysia is linked by festivals, full of excitement and celebration, and welcomes guests from all over the world with a smile.

The annual scenic spot is immersed in the joy of the festival.

Now there are all kinds of lively activities everywhere in Malaysia, and festivals are saturated with the joy of the tourism year.

At the same time, it also keeps our hands and feet busy and our eyes colorful.

Festivals never stop: In May, Kuala Lumpur's colorful Malaysia was grandly staged. In June, Penang, the city with the largest number of Malay Chinese, will hold the international dragon boat race with the most China flavor. In July, the World Rainforest Music Festival opened in Sarawak. In August, in Pucheng, bright fireworks will shine in the night sky here; In genting highlands, the World Lion Dance Championship will be held. In September, well-trained troops from all over the world lined up in Kuala Lumpur to participate in the international body painting performance.

Malaysia is sunny, the island is beautiful, and all kinds of beautiful scenery gather here. If you go deep into Malaysia, it is best to travel by yourself, and you will find new discoveries and surprises.

Enjoy life at the pristine seaside.

From the map, the Malay Peninsula is like a big leaf floating between the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean, surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the southwest coast is the Straits of Malacca. This is a famous shipping line in expressway.

So I recommend you to go to the east coast of Malaysia, where the water is very clear. You can choose the famous heat wave island, where wet nurse tea is located in summer, and Tioman Island. There are all kinds of resorts here, the water is clear and the sand is young, the coconut wind is blue and the sea and the sky are the same. You can enjoy the comfortable life on the island.

Another particularly enjoyable way to play is to drive along the coastal expressway on the east coast. Not only can you see the simple pastoral scenery and poetic scenery of Malay villages, but there are also beaches stretching for more than 700 kilometers, and many times there is no one. Lying on a beach for a long time suddenly felt that this was the way to enjoy life.

Wei Yuan climbed mountains in the virgin rainforest.

You don't know that the rainforest in Malaysia is as old as the rainforest in Brazil. For example, in the Great Hanshan National Park, there is the oldest rainforest in the world, about 65.438+0.3 billion years. In the rainforest, endless activities are waiting for you to participate. Have you ever tried walking on the top of a tree? Between Gualatahan and Guala Island, there is such a suspension bridge plank road overlooking the world's oldest rainforest scenery.

Or go to a hidden observation point in the forest for one night, where there is a bathroom and a place to sleep. You can see countless green eyes looking at you at night.

If you still have time, you can also go to Lushan Mountain in Na Ba, which is the highest peak in Sabah and the whole Southeast Asia, also known as the sacred mountain. The most unforgettable experience is the summit. You will experience the changes of four seasons and see the highest sunshine in Southeast Asia. The tourist season here is April, July, August, 65438+February.

Market route

The traditional Malaysian route is still a patchwork route between Singapore and Malaysia, and the price is around 4,000 yuan. Usually, the focus of Malaysia's tour is Kuala Lumpur, Malacca, Genting, Langkawi and other places in West Malaysia. In addition, in East Malaysia, where China tourists travel less, many routes have also been launched in the market, such as a five-day tour in Sabah, East Malaysia, at a price of around 6,000 yuan.

Malaysia also has many island products. For example, Lelang Island is free to travel on the 6th, and the price is around 5,400 yuan. In fact, you can choose to travel freely to Malaysia. One third of the local population is Chinese, and the language barrier is not great. For example, you can customize it through China Travel Network or travel agency, or buy a ticket of Malaysia Airlines and go directly.

Don't pass through Sri Lanka this time.

To tell the truth, for Sri Lanka, in the eyes of many people, it is just a passer-by. The reason is that this is a famous transit point to Maldives.

However, when you pass by in a hurry, this country, known as "a tear on the cheek of Buddha", has more tourism resources than you think.

Europe's new favorite Spain

Before 2006, Spain was not the focus of China people's travel in Europe.

But in 2007, all this will change. With the deepening of the Year of Spanish Culture in 2007, Spain warmly welcomes China tourists with an unprecedented gesture-in 2007, Spain will become the new favorite of China tourists in Europe.

The most important thing in a year is the special flavor of festivals.

"People in no country attach more importance to festivals than the Spanish." Therefore, going to Spain in the year of Spanish culture and catching up with one or two important local festivals are the most important things encountered during the trip.

April Expo-Location: Seville. The Los Remidios district of Seville is a place where millions of revelers drink. From night to dawn, Seville's delightful iconic flamenco music Seville resounded through the sky.

Pentecost-Location: El rossio, Andalusia. This is a pilgrimage that will be attended by more than half a million people. Pilgrims came here to touch the wooden statue of the Virgin Mary in El Roccio.

In July, the month of San Fermins in Pamplona-this is a crazy city, and the reputation of the famous bull-running festival has spread all over the world.

Mayol Festival from August to October-this is a typical feature of Spanish life. Mayores festivals held in La Alberca, Vejer de la Frontera, Toro, Ondarroa, Logrono, Soria and many other towns and villages swept across Spain with joy.

Original juice recommends Valencia new highlights

Spain also has a large number of world cultural heritages. The focus is on Valencia, which was seldom visited by tourists from China. Valencia, the third largest city in Spain, is close to the Mediterranean Sea. It is the hometown of paella, a Spanish national dish. Fa Ya Festival on March 19 is also world-famous, and the city also has world cultural heritage. In 2007, the final of America's Cup will be held in Valencia, and China will also participate.

Market route

The current market is mainly the connection between Spain and Portugal. However, this link between Spain and Portugal has also been upgraded this year. The previous route, the whole connection time was about eight or nine days, and the time was short, mainly for the capital tour.

In this year, the contact between Spain and Portugal was mostly 1 1 day, and the travel was deeper. You can visit the Alhambra Palace in Granada, find the original footprints of the matador in Ronda, and visit the world cultural heritage city of Tuo Lei in Spain. These trips were rarely involved before, but they represented the essence of Spanish culture.

At present, the quotation for the line 1 1 between Spain and Portugal is about 15000 yuan.
