Designed inside and out by the internationally acclaimed Charles Rennie Mackintosh, the House for an Art Lover is an arts centre in Southside's spectacular Bellahouston Park. The venue is also a popular choice for private celebrations, and houses a café that well lives up to its environment, making for a sublime location for afternoon tea.

Escape the crowds and discover another side of Mykonos by heading to the tranquil little village of Ano Mera, 8 km away from the capital. Its main attraction is the 16th-century Panagia Tourliani Monastery, which houses holy icons and paintings as well as a beautiful marble fountain and a bell tower. Here, you'll also find numerous hotels, cafés, and tavernas.

There are two waterfalls in the vicinity of Nha Trang, both of which make for excellent excursions into nature. Ba Ho Falls, at a distance of roughly 30km north of central Nha Trang, are the falls that attract most visitors. You will need a ride to reach the entrance to the natural area (get a taxi or Grab). Bring swimwear, sturdy shoes (not flip-flops), and your own water. Note that water volumes may vary dramatically depending on whether you visit during or outside the dry season (January through August). Another option is Fairy Spring Waterfalls (Suối Tiên), mostly favoured by local youth. These are much smaller compared to Ba Ho, but there is still an opening fit for swimming. There is a small admission fee to visit both falls.
