Flowers are beautiful and indigenous to certain environments due to their specific climates. If you’ve seen blue poppies before in a field as you were driving by, then they might have been Himalayan blue poppies.

These special flowers originate in the Himalayas and are considered the national flower of Bhutan. Bhutan is a generally peaceful country in Asia and this flower represents their culture well. The blue in the Himalayan Blue Poppy flowers comes from a natural pigment called delphinidin and it creates a blue color due to its acidic conditions inside the plant.

For more fun facts about this blue flower, read on.

Can you Grow Them?

Blue poppies need to thrive in a nutrient-dense soil with slight shading. It won’t thrive in direct sunlight ad you can simply grow one by digging a hole of about 18 by 18 inches mixing various soils and fine bark mulch.

Cool as Blue

This flower thrives in the Himalayas because the climate is generally cool and breezy even during the summer. This flower needs the right conditions to grow and when it spurts, it blossoms into a waterfall of blue hues.

Iceland is famous for many things: their lush landscapes, majestic mountains, star-filled skies, and the list goes on and on. One of the activities that are sometimes overlooked is visiting the geothermal pools in Iceland.

This country is extremely cold during the winter – but nothing seems as relaxing as a warm bath in the middle of the freezing snow. Reykjavík, the capital of Iceland, has about 17 swimming pools scattered around the area so you can choose which one suits you best.

Not Your Ordinary Pool

Iceland’s pools are on the unconventional side because you wouldn’t think to take a dip in warm water in the middle of a freezing climate. Nonetheless, local geothermal pools are imbedded in Iceland’s culture. If you visit Iceland, you’ll see that many people visit these pools including the elderly. Many people say that the water is soothing and the steam helps to calm the senses.

How Warm Are They?

The standard temperature of the geothermal pools is around 27°-30° celsius. Which makes this the ideal temperature to swim in, in this atmosphere. Not too cold and not too warm – its’s just right.

Post Swimming

After having your first (or maybe your second) geothermal pool experience, try out the food stands that are around the rea. It’s good to fill up your body with food after sitting in the pool to replenish itself.

If you’re into a challenging adventure that’s definitely worth the views, then here’s why it’s a must-visit destination.

Where Is It?

The Mua Caves are located in the Khe Dau Ha village in the Ninh Binh province. It’s an ecological complex that’s home to many animals and wildlife. You’ll come across the 486 stone steps to reach the beautiful Mua mountain and even though that sounds like a lot of steps – it’ll definitely be worth the trek.

Summer Time

Summer is the best time to visit since during the winter it can get quite rainy. Arrive during the summer to catch the unclouded views of the tops of the mountains. You’ll also catch a glimpse of the cascading rice fields that glow in the morning sun. Make sure to book a place with a traveling agency or talk to a local tour guide to get the most out of your hike.

The school is located in a jungle so that the people who visit it can see how humans and nature are intertwined. They also promote an appreciation for sustainable architecture and encourage their students and visitors to take a moment and appreciate nature’s design.

Sustainable Classrooms

At the center of the old city of Jaipur in India, lies the “Pink City.” This is a famous landmark founded in 1970. It’s surrounded by mini gardens and a courtyard.

3.1 million people reside in this city and it’s also a buzzing place for tourists because of its lively marketplace where you can find handwoven carpets and other indigenous crafts.

The Amber Palace

The Amber Port or Palace is a magnificent palace located 11 kilometers from Jaipur. This small town is situated on top of a hill and draws people in for its 16th-century ornate decorations.

Step Back In Time

This place feels like you’re backing back centuries ago. An additional tip is to hire a tour guide to explain the rich history behind the fort. It still stands as beautiful as ever and at night, it lights up like a glowing cake.

Patterns Everywhere

When you step inside this colorful fort, you’ll feel like you’re in a psychedelic paradise. The view from the inside and outside are equally stunning – it sure seems like the Indian Kings had a great eye for detail.

Lake Biwa is located in the Japanese Prefecture (district) of Shiga. It’s an excellent place for fishing aficionados that want to spend a whole day’s worth of fishing.

Besides this leisurely activity, people can also witness historic sites around the area, including the 17th-century castle and a few Buddhist temples. If you’re looking to catch some fish and see stunning views, then this is the place for you.

Go Fishing

You’ll be surprised by the size of the lake – it’s anything but small. You can rent a tour boat or even rest your own boat if you want a private fishing experience. If you want to stay a bit longer, try camping out by the shore with your family and friends for a night under the stars.

Shades of Blue

People who visited Lake Biwa have attested to seeing about 3-4 shades of blue in the crystal clear water. In the wee hours of the morning, the water sparkles with the light from the sun. With the abundant activities present – you’ll certainly never have a dull moment.

Bike Around

If you’re looking to take a break from the water, why not try cycling on the boardwalk? It’s a great place to catch the view of the waters without having to be in it.

At the center of the old city of Jaipur in India, lies the “Pink City.” This is a famous landmark founded in 1970. It’s surrounded by mini gardens and a courtyard.

3.1 million people reside in this city and it’s also a buzzing place for tourists because of its lively marketplace where you can find handwoven carpets and other indigenous crafts.

The Amber Palace

The Amber Port or Palace is a magnificent palace located 11 kilometers from Jaipur. This small town is situated on top of a hill and draws people in for its 16th-century ornate decorations.

Step Back In Time

This place feels like you’re backing back centuries ago. An additional tip is to hire a tour guide to explain the rich history behind the fort. It still stands as beautiful as ever and at night, it lights up like a glowing cake.

Patterns Everywhere

When you step inside this colorful fort, you’ll feel like you’re in a psychedelic paradise. The view from the inside and outside are equally stunning – it sure seems like the Indian Kings had a great eye for detail.

Lake Biwa is located in the Japanese Prefecture (district) of Shiga. It’s an excellent place for fishing aficionados that want to spend a whole day’s worth of fishing.

Besides this leisurely activity, people can also witness historic sites around the area, including the 17th-century castle and a few Buddhist temples. If you’re looking to catch some fish and see stunning views, then this is the place for you.

Go Fishing

You’ll be surprised by the size of the lake – it’s anything but small. You can rent a tour boat or even rest your own boat if you want a private fishing experience. If you want to stay a bit longer, try camping out by the shore with your family and friends for a night under the stars.

Shades of Blue

People who visited Lake Biwa have attested to seeing about 3-4 shades of blue in the crystal clear water. In the wee hours of the morning, the water sparkles with the light from the sun. With the abundant activities present – you’ll certainly never have a dull moment.

Bike Around

If you’re looking to take a break from the water, why not try cycling on the boardwalk? It’s a great place to catch the view of the waters without having to be in it.
