But this doesn’t mean Milan is all about fashion houses and galleries; there is a lot to see in this beautiful city that is masked by its busy external image.

Getting cheap flights to Milan can be quite easy because of its status as the busiest city in Italy. Check for deals on British Airways reservations or Turkish Airways reservations to get cheap flight tickets.

Milan has its share of old and new sights; modern skyscrapers stand besides old monuments and galleries. Historical sites include the Duomo, a massive Gothic Cathedral; the Galleria Vittorio Emanuel, a grand old shopping mall; the La Scala Theater and the Castello Sforzesco. The Basilica of Sant Ambrogio, build by saint Ambroeus, the patron saint of Milan is a lovely ancient building and tells you much about the history of Milan.

Another important attraction here is Leonardo Da Vinci’s painting, The Last Supper; this painting has been preserved, or rather, protected in the monastery of Santa Maria Delle Grazie. The story of how the painting still remains in spite of the dangers it has faced over history is very interesting.

Seoul is the capital and the largest metropolitan area of South Korea. It is situated in the North West part of South Korea. The city is famous as a city of museums. The destination boasts of more than 100 museums. The place is best for the winter season as summers are extremely hot and humid.

This city was not new for me as I had visited last year also during my winter vacations. It was a four days trip, and we all enjoyed it thoroughly. My family and me, we all love to travel to different places of the world. Hence, we are always looking for offbeat destinations. We are keen to explore the new places in this world. This time we chose Seoul as our destination. The trip was an ultimate experience.

Though the place for the trip was decided, but the main task still remained, and that was the reservations and bookings of flights and hotels. To be very frank, booking of flight tickets was the most difficult, and time consuming part of our whole trip. We don’t want some last minute hurry so we decided to book tickets in advance. All information of flight was gathered by us, but we were in need of some cheap tickets. As the budget was set aside by our family, and we had to enjoy this vacation within that limit, we started looking for cheaper options. We inquired about Flights to Seoul like British Airways and found some airlines tickets for a cheap price, but their services were extremely poor.

We came to know through a family friend that few leading airlines ply Cheap Flights to Seoul. As it was the vacation time and flights were full of the crowd, and that was the difficult task still we tried for our booking. By reference of some known person, we were able to buy cheap tickets to Seoul.

After a long and hectic process of booking finally we reached our destination. After reaching there, we had a great feeling of relaxation. First we reached the hotel and, after getting fresh we started our journey. Seoul is popular by the name of “city of Museum”. We found a number of museums there.
