Nugget & The Tree Tunnels

Is there anything more magical than walking through a perfect canopy of the most beautiful flowers? It doesn't matter if they were formed through the grace of nature or sculpted by the hands of inspired gardeners. They are nothing short of being both beautiful and enchanting.

GYENOGHWA STATION, JINHAE
For me, Japan is synonymous with sakuras, commonly known as cherry blossoms and to experience a tunnels of them would be amazing. The Gyeonghwa Station in South Korea is one of the top spots to take photos of this pale pink ocean in Jinhae.

WISTERIA FLOWER TUNNEL, KITAKYUSHU
The Wisteria Flower Tunnel in the Kawachi Fuji Garden seems to be a scene taken from a fairytale. This enchanting canopy is home to over 150 Wisteria flowering plants. Walking under these multi-coloured tunnel will truly be a magical experience.

TUNNEL OF LOVE, KLEVAN
The Tunnel of Love is found on the outskirts of a little town in Ukraine, Klevan where a private railway track became overgrown by green arches. It is a very popular spot for couples to take photographs mainly due to its name and an interesting legend. It is believed that any wish of someone in love, made while walking through the tunnel will come true. I need to take a walk there, I have some wishes that I need to come true.

BONN, GERMANY
Every spring,  streets in Bonn, Germany becomes tunnelled with flowers, exploding with a beautiful shade of pink as cherry blossoms bloom. Imagine strolling through Germany with such beauty overhead.

GINKGO TREE TUNNEL, TOKYO
I think I can do an entire article on tunnels in Japan, they have so many amazing ones! These dazzling sea of yellow trees were strategically placed to create a beautiful awning in Tokyo, Japan.

JACARANDAS WALK, JOHANNESBURG
A purple paradise comes to life each Spring as thousands of jacaranda trees bloom above suburban streets of Johannesburg, South Africa. Over one hundred years ago, these trees were imported from South America and planted along the sidewalks of developing areas to become the beautiful forest it is today.

LABURNUM TUNNEL, WALES
The most popular feature of the Bodnant Garden of Wales is the artificial tunnel of beautiful laburnum flowers. When in bloom, it entirely covers the arch and forms a beautiful canopy, similar to that of the wisteria tunnel.

Nugget & The Beaches

If I asked you to picture the perfect beach , most of you might paint a scenery of a strip of white soft sand dotted with lush palm trees, crystal clear blue waters with gently rolling waves, all framed by a beautiful landscape. These bucket list beaches offer something a little bit different. PINK SAND BEACH, HARBOUR ISLAND No soft white strip of sand here, but Pink Sand Beach of Harbour Island, Bahamas , is the place to go to for natural beauty of pink sands and calm blue waters which extends for 3 miles . The waters are ideal for swimming and relaxing as the harsh waves are blocked by the surrounding coral reefs . The sand itself consists of broken corals, shells, rocks and calcium carbonate but it's pink colour comes from shell colour of microscopic shelled animals . Although it isn't the only pink beach in the world, it is definitely one of the most beautiful , perfect location for a vacation. Click here for info on more pink beaches .

Nugget & The Caves

I never thought that I'd be interested in going into caves. I think batman scarred me growing up and made me think caves are just dark holes, infested with bats but I was so wrong. Here are some of the most amazing caves around the world, each carrying unique features. ICE CAVE, KAMCHATKA Does the pictures of this ice cave below remind anyone else of cotton candy or the passage to a fairytale world ? Yes, I'm sure it does. This magical cave is located in  Kamchatsky, Russia  where the entire landscape is constantly changing due to active  volcanoes  and  glaciers . The location is described as being alive and having  a beating heart .  This  ice jewel  was carved by a volcano-fed river which is sourced from a hot spring from the  Mutnovsky volcano  which flows through the glacier. Its cotton candy  colours  are a result of the  refraction of sunlight t streaming through the ice walls. Photo credit:...

Nugget & The Blue Holes

Looking for an underwater adventure? Blue holes are usually found in shallow coastal areas and the darker the shade of blue, the deeper it goes. The Travel Nugget won't venture into these depths for 2 reasons. Firstly, diving in these places has a prerequisite of logging over 25 dives so an extreme amateur, like the Travel Nugget, can't. Secondly, the mystery of the creatures that lurk in dark, deep waters scare me. GREAT BLUE HOLE, BELIZE The Great Blue Hole of Belize is the most popular blue hole and I have no idea what its appearance reminds me of. It measures over 300 meters across and 124 meters deep. The blue hole rests in the middle of Lighthouse Reef where an island of corals encircles the shallow area, giving it a beautiful turquoise colour. Many visit by boat and aerial tours while the more adventurous opt for skydiving into the waters. I imagine myself screaming at the top of my voice until I touch the water if I ever attempt that one but maybe, just maybe, ...

Nugget & The Mountains

As a child,  when you were taught to draw a mountain, it was always some form of an inverted triangle with a rounded top. Drawing a flat-top mountain or multiple pillars would definitely be considered incorrect in art class. However, these mountains prove otherwise. CAPPADOCIA, ANCIENT REGION OF ANATOLIA Cappadocia is a historical region which lies in the plateau of central Anatolia, Turkey. It's most amazing feature is the unique chimney fairy rocks which were formed by volcanic eruptions and erosion which shaped the pillars. Humans burrowed into these chimneys and made it their own, building underground cities which I’d like to venture into, just for curiosity's sake. Although I’m fascinated by these structures, I don’t want to see them from standing on the ground. I’ve never been hot air ballooning and the thought of floating in the air always seems scary, but with the amazing view of the Cappadocia landscape, I’ll be willing too.   UNESCO World Heritage Site ...
