<p>How about to stay here when you go to South Africa next time? <strong>Makanyane safari lodge</strong> is a<strong> luxury south african safari lodge</strong> in the<strong> madikwe game reserve.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/10/16/makanyane-safari-lodge-a-luxury-south-african-safari-lodge/makanyane-safari-lodge6/" rel="attachment wp-att-6121"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-6121" title="Makanyane Safari Lodge6" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Makanyane-Safari-Lodge6.jpg" alt="Makanyane Safari Lodge6" width="500" height="327" /></a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/10/16/makanyane-safari-lodge-a-luxury-south-african-safari-lodge/makanyane-safari-lodge/" rel="attachment wp-att-6126"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-6126" title="makanyane-safari-lodge" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/makanyane-safari-lodge.jpg" alt="makanyane-safari-lodge" width="500" height="390" /></a></p>
<p>To experience the vibrant bush life around you, allow yourself to be led through <strong>Madikwe&#8217;s 75,000 hectare</strong> environment, either on foot or in an open vehicle.</p>

<p>Watch the wildlife, oblivious to your presence, from one of our bush hides overlooking a waterhole or facing plains that stretch to the horizon.</p>

<p>You could even sleep out under the stars while nocturnal life continues around your secure, elevated deck.</p>

<p>Travel to unseen and weird places on earth via Google Earth. You can also travel to these places by your own. These weird places are all around us, some of them are unseen but some of them are exposed. Earth is full of mysterious places and alien structers. Google Earth can see it but our naked eyes cant.</p>
<p><span>Massive animal-shaped mounds in Peru dating back 5,000 years have been revealed by Google Earth.</span></p>
<h2>1. Southern Peru</h2>
<p><span>The country is already famous for the weird Nazca lines, which include a series of giant animal outlines drawn on the ground.</span></p>
<p><span>Now the South American country can add mounds in the shapes of birds, including a giant condor, an orca, a duck, and a caiman/puma monster to its list of wonders best-seen from the air.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/06/04/travel-to-unseen-and-strange-places/strange-places/" rel="attachment wp-att-4536"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-4536" title="strange places" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/strange-places.jpg" alt="strange places" width="500" height="350" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Orcas hunted off the Peruvian coast 500 metres away until recently when industrial fishing removed their prey. This orca-shaped mound dated to approximately 5000 years ago</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="more-4535"></span><br />
<a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/06/04/travel-to-unseen-and-strange-places/duck-shape/" rel="attachment wp-att-4537"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-4537" title="duck shape formation" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/duck-shape.jpg" alt="duck shape formation" width="500" height="350" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> A natural formation was altered by adding a head to create a duck-shaped mound. A nearby circular mound may represent an egg. These are 3,500 years old</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/06/04/travel-to-unseen-and-strange-places/old-caiman-puma-mound/" rel="attachment wp-att-4538"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-4538" title="old caiman puma mound" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/old-caiman-puma-mound.jpg" alt="old caiman puma mound" width="500" height="350" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The 4,000-year-old caiman/puma mound is from the preceramic site of El Paraíso, in the Chilca Valley. The other, a condor, is partly visible in the upper left. The arrow shows the mound&#8217;s alignment to the Milky Way</p>
<h2>2. Saudi Arabia</h2>
<p>These strange alien structures are known to the local Bedouin tribes as being created by &#8220;the old men&#8221;, and are about 2,000 years old.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/06/04/travel-to-unseen-and-strange-places/alien-structure/" rel="attachment wp-att-4539"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-4539" title="alien structure " src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/alien-structure.jpg" alt="alien structure " width="500" height="360" /></a></h3>
<p>Similar structures, all resembling kites and wheels, have been discovered while travel to Jordan and Yemen—some dating back as far as 9,000 years—and, while scientists aren&#8217;t certain just what the hell these ruins were for, some conjecture that at least the kite-like ones could have been traps for game animals.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/06/04/travel-to-unseen-and-strange-places/alien-structure2/" rel="attachment wp-att-4540"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-4540" title="strange alien structure places2" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/alien-structure2.jpg" alt="strange alien structure places2" width="500" height="360" /></a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/06/04/travel-to-unseen-and-strange-places/alien-structure5/" rel="attachment wp-att-4543"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-4543" title="alien structure5" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/alien-structure5.jpg" alt="alien structure5" width="500" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>What the rest were for? Who knows. One of the few known civilizations that committed the energy to creating such geoglyphs was the weird Nazca culture, and their Nazca Lines are the most famous of all.</p>
<p>Archaeologists still argue to this day as to the purpose of these designs, some resembling monkeys and others men, some believing that they were creating out of worship for their gods. And sure. Others like Swiss crackpot Erich von Dänikenbelieve they&#8217;re runways for alien vessels.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s unlikely that these ruins are the work of extra-terrestrials—but then again, who really knows right?—but it&#8217;ll likely be unclear for years to come. So how about to travel to unseen and weird places like these? Dont forget to make a visit to check out these places while travelling to Saudi Arabia and Peru.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<hr />
<p>Sun, sea and fun are guaranteed and not a goal for a crazy holiday in Fuerteventura, in the Canary Islands,  in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Africa.  The Spanish island is a favorite of young people for vacations because there they find entertainment, sports and a lot of fun.</p>
<p>Fuerteventura is the second largest of the Canary Islands, after<strong> Tenerife</strong>. It was declared a biosphere reserve by UNESCO on May 26, 2009. It is graced by a sunny and warm climate most of the year, temperatures rarely fall below 20 degrees, making it the perfect destination for warm winter vacations.</p>
<iframe class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="450" height="400" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/jGn80YL-xuo" frameborder="0"></iframe>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>After an evening spent in pubs and clubs, there is nothing better than basking in the sunlight on the white sand beaches of the island that seem like they are out of a movie. Fuerteventura is the southernmost of the Canary Islands situated in the Atlantic Ocean and has some of the most beautiful sandy coasts of Europe.<span id="more-3082"></span></p>
<p>It is equipped with surfing gear shops for those seeking the constant winds and large waves. It would be ideal to rent a car to visit a different beach every day, so to discover the special beauty of each part of the island.</p>
<div><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/04/06/trip-to-the-island-where-sun-shines-all-year-long-fuerteventura/beach1/" rel="attachment wp-att-3083"><img title="beach1" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/beach1-400x238.jpg" alt="beach" width="450" height="400" /></a></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Along the north coast are the most beautiful beaches near Corralejo, Playa Bajo Negro in particular, Plaja Alzada, los Matos and playa del Moro. Depart from the country on the small ferries to Isla de Lobos (Island of Wolves), where the beautiful beaches of Playa de la Arena and the Sobrado can be found.</p>
<p><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/04/06/trip-to-the-island-where-sun-shines-all-year-long-fuerteventura/the-beach-of-fuerteventura/" rel="attachment wp-att-3086"><img title="The-beach-of-Fuerteventura" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/The-beach-of-Fuerteventura-400x300.jpg" alt="The-beach-of-Fuerteventura" width="450" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>The northern coast is one of the most frequented by tourists, in particular Butihondo Playa is the largest beach of the island and in summer it is overrun by tourists. Nearby is Playa de Sotavento, considered the best in Fuerteventura. It has a unique feature. Not far from the coast, in fact there is a sandy bar at low tide which turns into an “extension” of the island.</p>
<div><a href="http://nipunscorp.com/2012/04/06/trip-to-the-island-where-sun-shines-all-year-long-fuerteventura/playalaarena/" rel="attachment wp-att-3085"><img title="PlayalaArena" src="http://nipunscorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/PlayalaArena-400x300.jpg" alt="PlayalaArena" width="450" height="400" /></a></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Surfers and windsurfers however, prefer the east coast where a strong steady wind makes it possible to do acrobatics on giant waves. The beach Barlovento is certainly the best among those.</p>

<p>The <strong>Great Pyramid of Giza </strong>also known as  <strong>Pyramid of Khufu</strong> and the <strong>Pyramid of Cheops</strong> is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids in the Giza. It is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact.</p>

<p>The Great Pyramid of Giza is the only pyramid in Egypt known to contain both ascending and descending passages. Egyptologists believe that the pyramid was built as a tomb for fourth dynasty Egyptian Pharaoh Khufu (Cheops in Greek) over an approximately 20 year period concluding around 2560 BC. Initially at 146.5 metres (480.6 ft), the Great Pyramid was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years. There are three known chambers inside the Great Pyramid. The lowest chamber is cut into the bedrock upon which the pyramid was built and was unfinished. The so-called <strong>Queen&#8217;s Chamber</strong> and <strong>King&#8217;s Chamber</strong> are higher up within the pyramid structure. There have been varying scientific and alternative theories about the Great Pyramid&#8217;s construction techniques.</p>

Originally, the Great Pyramid was covered by casing stones that formed a smooth outer surface, what is seen today is the underlying core structure. Some of the casing stones that once covered the structure can still be seen around the base. Most accepted construction hypotheses are based on the idea that it was built by moving huge stones from a quarry and dragging and lifting them into place.</p>

<p>The main part of the Giza complex is a setting of buildings that included two mortuary temples in honor of Khufu (one close to the pyramid and one near the Nile), three smaller pyramids for Khufu&#8217;s wives, an even smaller &#8220;satellite&#8221; pyramid, a raised causeway connecting the two temples, and small mastaba tombs surrounding the pyramid for nobles.</p>
