The effervescence of the desert state continues to enthrall tourists well into what was once considered "not the right time to be in Rajasthan," and thereby making it a round-the-year, 365-day destination for domestic as well as foreign tourists.If the inbound tourist figures to the state are any indication, then Ajmer has a clear edge over Jaipur as the hottest destination with the domestic travellers. As per the figures of the last four years, compiled by the department of tourism, the pilgrim city, Ajmer has been the favoured destination for domestic tourists. Pushkar follows on the quick trot followed by the Pink City, ranking third on the tourists itinerary.And if you thought that the state thrives mostly on foreign tourists, then the figures prove otherwise.

| | Saints, Colts Potential Destinations for Thomas | | 2008-02-16 19:34:00 | | Looks like Zach won't be out of work for long, as his agent predicted. Both the Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints have already contacted him and he is planning to visit both teams sometime around the NFL Combine.I'd like to see him head to Dallas myself. Aside from their inexplicable collapse at the end of the season, they are the most talented squad in the NFC. If they can get around to playing well come playoff time, he would have a pretty good shot at winning that ring.If not, then Indianapolis would be a decent destination. I don't think the Tampa 2 is necessarily the best scheme for Zach, but I'm sure Tony Dungy would find a way to squeeze him in. And I'm certain Peyton Manning will take relief in knowing Thomas will be on his side for once. | | By: State of Miami | | |
| | Exotic golfing destinations | | 2008-02-05 00:00:22 | | I often think about taking a golfing holiday in an exotic location. I have played on a few courses you might term exotic, but that may just have been because of the rare and endangered weed growing on the green. The mind wanders to places like Fiji, Hawaii, Caribbean, South Africa, New Zealand (and the US for me) as well as many other great golfing destinations. Some of the courses in these locations have simply spectacular scenery and wildlife and there are always plenty of other things to do besides golf. However, even places like Hong Kong have some great golf courses and with flights to Hong Kong becoming so affordable these days an exotic golfing adventure is not that far out of reach.

"They want to take more expensive belongings with them, pursue whatever sports and activities they like and travel for as long as they wish, wherever in the world they choose, without having to worry. In insurance terms, they expect better quality cover, fewer exclusions and the support of travel and security experts they can trust."

| | Halkidiki: One of Greece's northern destinations | | 2007-07-11 00:14:00 | | Contrary to heavily visited areas in Greece, Halkidiki is a calm, dreamy peninsula in northern Greece where art and nature become one. It is very close to Thessalonica. Mountain villages, fishing towns and religious centers bear the traces of the country’s culture more than say Santorini, Mytilene and Athens. One of Halkidiki’s three finger peninsulas projecting into the sea is a religious center; the next is a natural wealth and the third a popular entertainment center with golf courses, nightclubs and casinos. The mountains’ green and the sea’s blue are enchanting. Karolina Tagaris who is interning at the Turkish Daily News within the framework of Forum of European Journalists Students (FEJS) exchange program wrote about Halkidiki, which she visited last year.
