Started on April 30 of 1993, this week long event has become a yearly ritual. It was first held at the Bacolod Lagoon but had to be moved to a venue made just for the Panaad since there has been a greater amount of participants. The Panaad stadium and swimming complex in Mansilingan, Bacolod City w…

I guess the best way to describe Bourbon Street in New Orleans is to say “Party!”. This several block long street is home to more bars, pubs, souvenir shops, sex clubs and eateries and is most famous for being the party capital of New Orleans. As the evening gets going the bands start playing …

It can be said that you haven't been to Yogyakarta if you havent't been to Jalan Malioboro or Malioboro Street. The street was very crowded when I visited it because it was on school holidays. But, I'm sure it won't be different at other time.
You can find many souvenirs, batik cloths and bags, T…

Yes, it is a cheesy tourist trap, but the kids will love it! Much bigger than it seems from outside, something for everyone. ENORMOUS gift shop, all the typical touristy stuff, plus dinosaur fossils, even a giant mechanical T-Rex that comes to life every 15 minutes or so! Plus, the food is terrific.…

We really like this. We knew it would consist of walking and could get
expensive. After all it is a market. We do much better on our own,
finding and exploring the antics of where we go. However, the vendors
that we talked to were very nice and helpful. They instructed us on the
best tours …

In Tallin, the best selection of Estonian gifts is in the Historic Old Town. There are numerous souvenir and handcraft shops, but the small table or tent vendors are usually cheaper. High-end artisans such as glassblowers and painters are also aplenty in Old Town, but I'm a budget shopper and like…

Outside of Honolulu Walmart, Kmart, and Borders are the best places to get the tourist stuff. These Big Box stores beat prices and have more stock to chose from.
Have no shame in going to these places.

You will see a lot of souvenir shops at Wawasan Plaza,
Centre Point, Wisma Merdeka, etc.
But, if you want to be able to bargain, go to the Filipino market.
They sell handicrafts, t-shirts, key chains, sarongs, carved wood, and many more.

First off, I'm not a big shopper. That said, Old Town Scottsdale is nothing but shopping, with a few restaurants thrown in. I went there because I thought it **was** the old part of town. Turns out, most of the buildings, with their covered walkways and faux adobe exteriors, are not much older then …
