Places I Want To Visit Before I Die


EGYPT   
                 
               Its been my childhood fasination to visit the land of pharoah's and mummy's . As against many of my friends I used to just love my history clases. The first time when i heard about this
magnificent man made structures I was like "wow", and visitng the life of africa 'THE NILE RIVER'  would be icing on the cake. Another important thing is the most beautiful women to live in this world 'CLEOPATRA' comes from this place part of the world. Hope I would find someone like her there and shout her name on the top of the tallest pyramid!!!!!!!   


Louvre Museum
       
             I first heard about this place in the book 'Da Vinci Code', then googled it and found more information about this beautiful place. No I have no intensions to explore the holy grail or anything related to it. I just want to enjoy some of masterpieces by the masters themselves like Davinci, michelangelo and many more. Its just a coinsidence that it happens to resemble the pyramids. More importantly I like the city Paris, am just bowled over by the cities culture and heritage.


Westminster Abbey

                Its a gothic chruch in london, and one of the oldest in Britain. Its an UNESCO world heritage site. It is where the monarch were crowned, all the victoria's and elizebeth's were crowned here and its the place where many of them were buried. In those days it was an honour to be buried in here, sir Isac Newton, William Shakespeare, William Wordsworth are few of the many legends who have been buried here. Although it has been mentionrd in the 'DaVinci Code' I knew about this place much before I read it.


OLD TRAFFORD

             "The theatre of DREAMS". It may not be on the top of my wish list, but am quiet sure this is the first place i would visit. Its a football stadium(more than just a stadium for red devil!!)  where in the greatest team MANCHESTER UNITED play thier home matches. Its the heart of britain. Its pretty hard to get a ticket to an epl game in England, but i would go to any extent to get one. I have no specific match in mind  but i would surely like to watch manutd vs liverpool, as always liverpool will be reduced to ashes!


Mount EVEREST 

               This destination may sound bit impractical. But anyway I have a dream about being 9000 metres above the sea level. Who doesnt want to be on the top of the world, here its queit literally. Sometimes its nice to have dream which may not be fullfilled, I havnt given it up yet. I will not pursue this dream, if it happens it happens thats it.
