I. Maldives: The Epitome of Paradise on Earth

When I first set foot on the Maldivian land, wow, I was instantly conquered by the beautiful scenery before me. The sea water here is astonishingly clear, like a huge blue crystal, allowing you to see the colorful coral reefs and happily swimming fish at the bottom at a glance.

Colorful tropical fish swam around me, and it felt like I could reach out and touch the variously shaped corals, truly amazing!

The beaches in the Maldives are also exceptional, as fine as flour. Walking on them barefoot feels so soft and warm, incredibly comfortable.

I found a lounge chair, lay down comfortably, sipping coconut juice while admiring this intoxicating scenery. At that moment, I felt like the happiest person in the world.

Hey everyone, when traveling to the Maldives, it’s best to choose between November and April of the following year. This period is the dry season, with clear weather and abundant sunshine, making it particularly suitable for sea outings and diving. When choosing an island, you should base your decision on your budget and preferences. The Maldives has many different grades of resort islands, each with its own unique style and facilities. If you have a sufficient budget, you can choose some luxury islands to enjoy top-level services and facilities; if you’re looking for better value for money, there are also many affordable islands to choose from. Additionally, when diving in the Maldives, you must pay attention to safety, follow the instructor’s guidance, and not go to dangerous areas alone.

II. Bali: The Charm of the Island of the Gods

Folks, Bali is the renowned “Island of the Gods,” full of mysterious and charming appeal. The first time I went to Bali, I was immediately captivated by the rich religious atmosphere as soon as I got off the plane. The island is filled with temples, each with unique architectural styles and exquisite carvings. When I entered an ancient temple, I was instantly enveloped by its solemn and dignified atmosphere. The priests in the temple, dressed in traditional attire, were performing mysterious rituals, filling me with a deep reverence for the local culture.

Besides its religious culture, Bali’s natural scenery is also intoxicatingly beautiful. The Uluwatu Cliff is one of Bali’s iconic landmarks. Standing at the edge of the cliff and looking into the distance, the vast Indian Ocean unfolds before your eyes. The waves continuously crash against the cliff, producing deafening sounds in a magnificent display. When I stood there, I felt both nervous and excited, as if I were standing at the edge of the world. Then there are Bali’s rice terraces, layered and lush green, complementing the distant mountains, blue sky, and white clouds, forming a beautiful pastoral picture. I strolled along the small paths of the terraces, breathing in the fresh air and appreciating the beauty of nature, and all my fatigue disappeared.

Friends, when traveling to Bali, you must respect local religious beliefs and customs. When entering temples, dress appropriately and avoid wearing revealing clothing. In Bali, transportation is not very developed, so it’s best to hire a car or rent a vehicle for getting around. If you choose to rent a car, pay attention to local traffic rules, as Bali’s traffic habits are quite different from those in China. Additionally, Bali’s cuisine is quite distinctive, with dishes like dirty duck dinner and suckling pig that you must try. However, be mindful of food hygiene to avoid stomach problems.

I was in the helicopter, my eyes fixed on the scene, constantly pressing the camera shutter, wanting to capture this beautiful scenery forever.

Everyone, when traveling to Tahiti, it’s best to arrange your visa in advance, as Tahiti does not have a visa-free policy for Chinese tourists. The cost of living in Tahiti is relatively high, so when booking hotels and planning your itinerary, it’s important to budget in advance. In Tahiti, water activities are abundant, such as diving, surfing, and sea fishing – you must experience them. However, pay attention to safety, choose legitimate water activity centers, and follow the instructors’ guidance.
