Film buffs will really get a kick out visiting the Yoda Guy Movie Exhibit, which houses a number of pieces of movie memorabilia. Some pieces are works created or co-created by the artist and owner Nick Maley, who has worked on films like "Star Wars", "Superman", "Men in Black", "The Terminator", "Alien" and "Highlander".

The best-known and tallest building in the city, the Palace of Culture and Science, was a gift (as well as a display of strength) from the Soviet people to the Poles. Visible from almost any place in Warsaw, the palace is to Warsaw what the Eiffel Tower is to Paris — the perfect landmark. Take the lift up to the 30th floor to see the city panorama from a height of 114 metres. The palace also houses theatres, a cinema, museums, and trendy bistros, as well as the city’s main tourist information point.

A beloved landmark in the Cheshire countryside south of Manchester, the Jodrell Bank Centre for Engagement is a reminder of just how important the city is to the world of science. The University of Manchester's impressive radio telescope centre is a key part of the UK's astronomy research, scanning the skies to improve our knowledge of the Universe. The Jodrell Bank Centre for Engagement allows visitors to discover the Universe beside the world-famous Lovell Radio Telescope and explore the planet Earth in the beautiful 35-acre tree-filled gardens.

Uyun Al-Jiwa — literally "the valley’s ponds" — is often referred to as the oasis celebrated by Arab poets for its significance in several poetry collections known as the Suspended Odes (Mu’allaqat). The area is known for the ancient Banu Abs communities that lived here since prehistoric times. Depicting the lifestyle of ancient people, several Thamudic rock paintings can be found in the Al-Jiwa region — particularly in Al Hanadir, 15 km outside the city. Be sure to visit the mud-and-adobe Al Margab Watchtower. Take a walk through the Old Uyun — a collection of houses built of clay and mud. Get souvenirs from the vibrant Old Souq and take a photo of the Antarah Rock. Also known as the Lovers' Rock, this precariously perched boulder is rumoured to be the place where the celebrated poet Antarah bin Shaddad met with his sweetheart Ablah.
