Asia's seventh best ski resort


The Gulmarg health resort in Jammu and Kashmir has been rated by CNN International as Asia's seventh best ski destination.

Appi Kogen in Japan's Honshu island tops the list as the best ski resort in Asia, followed by Niseko in Hokkaido, also in Japan.

CNN International says that in the 19th Century, Gulmarg was a hill station for British colonials to escape the summer heat."These days, it is a world class ski resort blanketed with fresh light powder from the Himalayas, attracting ski bums tired of Alpine lift queues and fondues," CNN said.

The report also saysthat the resort's claim to fame is the Gulmarg Gandola, the highest ski lift in the world at a dizzying height of 3,979 metres. At the top station, skiers can take on challenging runs with Nanga Parbat, the world's ninth highest peak, in the backdrop. Around 400,000 intrepid skiers took the gondola ride last year.

"The government will soon install all modern facilities required to supplement tourism-related activities in the state," Kashmir Tourism Minister Nawang Rigzin Jora told reporters Friday.

"It is heartening to know that Gulmarg has won international recognition for being one of the best ski resorts. We would like to promote it as well as other equally beautiful places in all the three regions of the state.

"Gulmarg has the potential to come up as an international convention centre also. We will soon devise a permanent winter calendar to attract domestic as well as overseas visitors to the resort

Empire State Building

ankit bhardwaj
Easily one of the most famous buildings in the world (if only by name), the Empire State Building literally soars above all other sky scrapers of the super-city of New York and a trip to the top of the Empire State is one of the ‘must do’ things in Manhattan.

The building became famous not only for the rate at which it was constructed, but also when completed, it was the tallest man made structure in the world (overtaking previous record holders including New York’s own Chrysler building, the Eiffel Tower in Paris). The fact that it resides in one of the most famous cities in the world also adds to the buildings mystique while movies such as King Kong have also immortalized the structure.

Even though you are surrounded by so many other tall, tall buildings in Manhattan, there are quite a few places in the city where you can clearly see the distinctive top of the the Empire State building above the others and during the evenings the top of the building is even easier to see as it is often lit in different colours.

The views from the 86th floor observation deck (1,050 feet or 320 meters above the street) are easily the best in the city and are simply breath-taking. The building is open until late int he evening so you can take the elevator to the top day or night and when the weather is clear you can see the whole island of Manhattan and the other Burroughs of New York as well as Central Park, New Jersey, the Statue of Liberty and so much more.
