Another iconic monument of Dhaka, the Tara Mosque, or Star Mosque, has fascinated visitors and locals alike for years with its beautifully detailed mosaics. Interestingly, some tiles feature illustrations of Mt Fuji, since a renovation was done some 50 years ago using Japanese and English porcelain tiles.

Perched atop a hill overlooking the Vltava River, Prague Castle is a magnificent testament to over a millennium of architectural evolution and historical significance. As the largest ancient castle complex in the world, it sprawls across 70,000 square metres and includes stunning Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, and Romanesque buildings. Visitors can explore the iconic St Vitus Cathedral, the Old Royal Palace, and the charming Golden Lane, all within its storied walls. Once the seat of Bohemian kings and Holy Roman emperors, today it serves as the official residence of the Czech president, making it not only a breathtaking landmark but also a vibrant centre of Czech political life.

Yanagibashi Central Market is home to over 400 shops and fish stalls, dating back to the Edo era (1603–1868) and second in size only to Tokyo’s giant Tsukiji Fish Market. Giant tuna, octopus, shrimp and many other varieties of fish are on sale here from early morning (around 6 am is best).

Located between the old town and Poniente beach this small cove beach is 120m long and is accessed from the port or the steps of the castle. From the nearby port you can take a boat trip to Benidorm Island and admire the stunning sea life.
