Staying at Vista Walkerhill Seoul was a dream! The panoramic views of the Han River from my room were absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. The interior design was sleek and modern, with a luxurious yet cozy feel. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep. I loved the rooftop bar, where I enjoyed cocktails with breathtaking scenery. The staff were attentive and went above and beyond to accommodate any request. The only minor downside was that it's a little outside the city center, but the peaceful atmosphere made up for it. The spa and fitness facilities were excellent, adding to the relaxation factor. Highly recommend this place for a romantic getaway or a peaceful retreat!

#beachtime If you want me to pick the most UNIQUE beach in Varkala, it would be the BLACK SAND BEACH! 🖤🖤 Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India is a mesmerizing destination. Just like its name, the beach stands out for obvious reasons- the black sands you can find nowhere else on the planet! 🖤 As you stroll along the black sand beach, you will see the contrast of the black sand against the blue waters and this creates a breathtaking view! This beach is perfect for sunbathing, yoga, and enjoying the soothing sound of waves. The best part? This beach is large and quiet in some areas! The beach is a good place for yoga and ayurvedic retreat. Along the beach, there are a few local cafes, making it a great spot to relax and refuel. 🌅 This beach is truly a hidden but magical place. Go during sunset, when the sky is painted in hues of orange and pink. A must-visit gem! ✨ #india #blacksand

My visit to Trivandrum (Thiruvananthapuram) was an enriching experience filled with culture, history, and natural beauty. The city’s serene vibe perfectly complemented its vibrant attractions. I started with the iconic Padmanabhaswamy Temple, an architectural marvel steeped in spirituality. Kovalam Beach, with its golden sands and stunning sunsets, was the perfect spot to unwind. I also explored the lush greenery of Napier Museum and Zoo, and the nearby Ponmudi Hills offered breathtaking views and a refreshing escape into nature. The food in Trivandrum was a treat—authentic Kerala cuisine like appam and fish curry was a must-try. The people were friendly and welcoming, making my trip even more memorable. Trivandrum is a perfect blend of cultural heritage and modern charm, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kerala! #ExploreTrivandrum #KeralaTourism #GodsOwnCountry #PadmanabhaswamyTemple #KovalamBeach #NatureEscape #CulturalHeritage #SouthIndiaVibes

#Overseas travel #India travel #Trivandrum 🇮🇳 Trivandrum, India 💚 Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple I am traveling to Trivandrum, the capital of Kerala, southern India. In Trivandrum, there is the Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple, nicknamed "the richest Hindu temple in the world." It is a Hindu temple that is deeply rooted in the lives of Indians in India, where various religions coexist, and it is said that a hidden treasure is hidden in this temple. Unfortunately, foreigners cannot visit the temple, but the temple grounds are so large that it was fun to look around the outside of the temple. It was also nice to look at the Hindu temple from the pond where the temple looks the prettiest. If you are traveling to Trivandrum, southern India, I recommend visiting the Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple 💚

#Overseas travel #India travel #India #Trivandrum 🇮🇳 Trivandrum, India 💚 Old Coffee House Trivandrum is the capital of Kerala, a state in South India bordering the sea. Trivandrum has many famous beaches, and I visited Shankumugham Beach. I also had lunch at Old Coffee House, an ocean view restaurant in Trivandrum where you can enjoy delicious seafood while looking out over Shankumugham Beach. I visited around 2pm, so there weren't many people, and I was able to sit and eat while looking out over the Arabian Sea in South India. Trivandrum is famous for its seafood, so I ordered seafood sizzler and mango lassi, which cost 840 rupees. It's quite expensive for Indian prices, but the staff's service was very attentive. The squid in the Seafood Sizzler was soft and delicious, and the seasoning tasted familiar, so it felt like eating Korean food, so it suited my taste very well. I was just happy to eat fresh seafood while looking at the cool sea. I highly recommend Old Coffee House.

#Overseas travel #India travel #South India #Trivandrum 🇮🇳 Trivandrum, India 🍲 O café Introducing O café, a famous restaurant in Trivandrum, the capital of the state of Kerala in South India. O café is a restaurant on the 3rd floor of the O by Tamara hotel. During dinner time, you can enjoy a dinner buffet or order a la carte menu. I had fish curry at this restaurant last year on the recommendation of the staff and I remember it being so delicious, so this time I came to eat butter chicken, my favorite Indian food. At first, there was a communication error and instead of butter chicken, pad thai chicken was served, but they brought it back and I was able to eat butter chicken. It was soft and flavorful, and the chicken was soft and went well with salty garlic naan. I also got to taste appam, a staple food of South Indians. It was chewy and crispy, so delicious that I ate two pieces. Also, O Cafe Mango Lassi is creamy and I really like it!!! If you are traveling to Trivandrum in South India, I highly recommend O Cafe.

#Emotional Accommodation #India #SouthIndia #Trivandrum 🇮🇳 Trivandrum, India 💚 O by Tamara Trivandrum I visited Trivandrum, the capital of Kerala, the southernmost state of India. I stayed at O ​​by Tamara Trivandrum, where I could really feel the South Indian sensibility. I stayed in the newly opened new building of O by Tamara, and I liked the spacious, comfortable, and clean rooms. I also got a room with a pool view, which was great. There is an infinity pool and O café, a famous restaurant in Trivandrum, on the 3rd floor of O by Tamara, and a comfortable gym, jacuzzi, and sauna on the 2nd floor! The staff was really friendly, so I felt good the whole time I was there. The location was also great, with the largest Lulu shopping mall in India around the property, and easy access to anywhere by tuk-tuk. If you're traveling to Trivandrum in South India, I highly recommend this hotel 💚
