Editor's Pick on Travel Stories

RealTravel is an ever growing community of free travel blogs, trip planner and overall a rich resource of travel information for anyone working on their travel plans. The official travel blog, also know as Editor’s Picks, features some of the best pieces written by travel bloggers.

Take a look for example at today’s choices: a nice piece on Antarctica Cruise Trips, featuring breath-taking photography, and another piece on Pontivy, France. They both explore possibilities in the selected regions and are doing a great job at delivering useful tips to travel readers.

What I think this collective travel blog would need to actually make it stand out better would be a better organization of categories. Right now they mix regions, continents, countries and type of holidays in the same and extremely long list of categories. I think a little tidying up would help users a lot in finding what they are looking for.

Secrets Trapped in the Tower of London

London is one of the most important places to go for those seeking cultural, historical and artistic attractions. And to make the entire group of visitors happy, the UK capital city also has its share of attractions for sport lovers, party people and those just wanting to walk around aimlessly.

But the one place I would first go to see there is the Tower of London, with is jewels, tales and prison past, everything going back for about a millennium. William the Conqueror started by building a great fortress here. It then was turned into a palace, a prison, and nowadays into a museum. What is really my main point of attraction here? The crown jewels. I would like to see the Imperial State Crown, the Imperial Crown of India, Mary Modena’s crowns, the orb and the scepters and everything else royalty indulged themselves with when taking part in official ceremonies.

London can be visited regardless of the season; there are always things to do. And don’t worry about rain, it can happen any day! Hotels in London or other London accommodation options are always available. And if you are looking to expand you trip and see other cities, cheap hotels are available anywhere.

Asia-dedicated Travel Blog
Blogasian is a quite new travel blog, rich with a wide range of information from Asia hotel news to tourist trips and funny and informative tops. It hasn't even turned three months, yet it's regularly updated and has a pretty good Alexa rank.

All posts are tourism oriented, describing cities, attraction and destinations from countries such as China, Australia, India, Thailand and many more. Once you start reading, you only want to get to know more. Blogasian introduces you to the fantastic, the popular and the weird traits of all these countries. Mixing the destinations with the appropriate Asia hotel news is a nice touch, given that it makes it easier for a reader to be convinced to plan a vacation after reading an interesting post.

My personal reading recommendations include a post on what to do after having the bad luck of being trapped on an island, the introduction to strange cultural habits from China, and of course the guide through Taj Mahal. The photo accompanying this last recommended post is simply beautiful! Take a look and decide for yourselves if the blog is worth reading.
