Dubai Frame - An Incredible Architectural Marvel

 Dubai -Dubai is known for its grand architecture, and the Dubai Frame is one of its most magnificent landmarks.   The weather today was very hot and as I approached the attraction, I could see the gigantic frame in the distance, and my excitement grew. The atmosphere around the Dubai Frame was lively and bustling with people from all walks of life, eager to experience this incredible attraction.

As I entered the frame, I was greeted with a state-of-the-art gallery showcasing the history of Dubai's development. The gallery was informative and provided an insight into how Dubai transformed from a small fishing village into a bustling metropolis. It was fascinating to see how Dubai's vision for the future has been realized through sheer determination and innovation


Dubai Frame is a towering structure located in Zabeel Park, Dubai. It stands at a height of 150 meters and is shaped like a massive picture frame. The frame has two towers that are connected by a 100-meter long bridge at the top. We took an elevator to the top of the frame and enjoy panoramic views of Dubai's skyline from the transparent glass floor.

One of the unique features of the Dubai Frame is the see-through glass at the top, which provides a 360-degree view of the city. The glass is thick and strong, but the sensation of standing on it is an adrenaline rush that cannot be described in words. It feels as if you are floating in the air, suspended above the city, and the experience is simply exhilarating.

Albert and Lesley Albert and I Intramuros is the oldest district and historic core of Manila.  The walled part of Manila was called intramuros, which is Latin for "within the walls"; districts beyond the walls are known as extramuros meaning outside the walls.  Construction of the defensive walls was started by the Spaniards in the late 16th century to protect the city from foreign invasions.   Guarding the old city is Fortaiago wich is located at the mouth of the river.

Cheong Guk Jang - fermented bean soup

Seoul - Lunch with Youngjin was at a traditional soup restaurant and it was crowded.   Youngjin asked me many times Cheonggukjang "ok", I said ok not knowing what to expect.  I have tried many weird and smelly good in Seoul, so I was very prepared.   My first time tasting Cheonggukjang and I like it. CheongGukJang 청국장 is fermented soybean soup aka Stinky soup.  Actually, I like fermented food and the smell does not put me off.   I like fermented food because of the many health benefits and also we have them here in Singapore - tempe, belachan, fermented bean curd (which I love with my porridge), chincaluk, etc.. very hot Cheonggukjang  I always buy danjang paste and bring home to make soup.  I understand that they are the same but the difference is Cheonggukjang beans are uncrushed and are fermented for a longer period of time.
