Best place for a weekend away?

Share your travel experiences and tips with our other readers!
The best weekend trip I’ve ever taken was to New York City. It’s so culturally diverse! I’d
recommend staying in one of the smaller hotels. The bigger and better-known five-star
hotels are expensive and sometimes overrated. One tip: don’t take a taxi from the
airport. Take the airport bus or a van – they’re much cheaper. –Sam (Henning, U.S.A.)
_________________________________________________________________________
Istanbul is the most fascinating city I’ve ever visited for a weekend. The architecture is a
really interesting mixture of Eastern and European styles. You can buy wonderful
jewelry and silk carpets in the Grand Bazaar. Don’t forget to bargain for better prices.
–Alicia (Madrid, Spain)
_________________________________________________________________________
Our weekend in Hong Kong was a huge adventure. Although it’s one of the most
densely populated cities in the world, there’s wonderful green countryside nearby. We
took a train north and visited old villages and amazing forests. We also liked the street
markets in the city. We ate some of the most exotic food we’ve ever tasted! –Brett
(Sydney, Australia)
_________________________________________________________________________
Paris is the place to go if you love museum-hopping. This city is not only home to the
Louvre (one of the biggest art museums in Europe and home to the world-famous Mona
Lisa), but it also has the Pompidou Center and the Orsay Museum with its amazing
collection of paintings. One tip: it’s cheaper to get around by Metro if you buy a pack of
ten tickets. –Jill (New York, U.S.A.)
