Travel Rewards Credit Cards
Traditionally, travellers would use either cold cash (converted to local currency) or traveller’s checks. These were sound ways to conduct business although each had their own pros and cons. The problem with carrying cash is that you will always be concerned about your wallet you may miss out on enjoying your vacation. With traveller’s checks, on the other hand, not all establishments honour these. The problem for both is that, when you run out of cash or traveller’s checks, you’re vacation is doomed. Nowadays, travellers no longer need to contend with bulky wallets or dwindling traveller’s checks because they have credit cards.
Credit cards are virtual necessities for the tourist of today. Not only do cards give the holder the power to make purchases anywhere and anytime (as most are accepted by establishments the world over), they are also very handy (does not take up too much space in any purse or wallet) and quite safe to use.

Beautiful Lijiang

Firstly, it is one of the very few city which is over a mile high above sea level. Smacked in the middle of the Lijiangba Dam, surrounded by snowcapped mountains and a river that runs through an oriental forest with small streams meandering into the town. Some tourists even called the town "Heaven On Earth".
Lijiang experienced an earth shattering 7 on the Richter scale earthquake on February 1996 which killed more than 5,000 people mainly the Naxi community being the major community in Lijiang. Since then, Lijiang caught the attention of the world and tourism growth was unprecedented. As such, Lijiang is now one of the most favoured tourist travel destination in China.
Millions of tourists travel to Lijiang each year to enjoy Lijiang's primitive simplicity, tranquility and elegant culture.The folks at Lijiang enjoy music too. You can hear the beautiful music from the dwelling houses in Dayanzhen Town. The musicians carry their often home made musical instruments to take part in household parties all over the town.
The Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in Lijiang is perhaps one the most beautiful mountain range in the world, famous for its perilous, beautiful and breathtaking landscapes. The mountain is a world class tourist scenic spot. The peak of the Jade Dragon Mountain is some 5596 meters (about 17,000 ft) above sea level.

The Grand Canyon, Arizona
1. If you have a lot of time to research and sort out your trip to the
2. How are you getting there? Some like to take a road trip to the
3. Make sure you have the clothes you need with you. Some people pack the wrong clothes for a trip. Remember where you are going and consider clothes that would be good for hiking, as well as something in case it rains. Also keep in mind the temperatures can drop substantially at night in this area, so you should pack something to keep warm.
4. In addition to clothes there are a lot of other items you need to remember to pack when heading out on this kind of adventure. If you are going hiking make sure to have things such as water bottles, a compass, map, and some supplies incase you happen to get lost. Also remember first aid items and sunscreen to avoid getting a sunburn. Don’t forget to pack any of the toiletries you would use at home. This includes toothbrush and toothpaste, sanitary supplies, and other items you may use with your daily shower.
5. If the kids are going with you, it is important to check ahead with the resort or hotel you are going to stay at to see if there are options of things for the kids to do, or babysitting services if they get tired and the adults would still like to go out.
6. Many people take their pets on vacation these days. While it’s great to have these furry members of your family with you, make sure to check ahead with your lodging destination to see if pets are allowed, and if they have accommodations for the animals when you visit attractions that don’t allow them.
7. Don’t set yourself up to be a victim. When you travel, you should try to not have a lot of cash on you at any point in time. Someone might see it and consider you an easy target. The best form of money for a trip is traveler’s checks that can be quickly cancelled if they are stolen. Also don’t carry all of your credit cards at once. That way, were the worst to happen, you would still have access to some money to take care of your family.
