Puntarenas Carnival

Published by admin under Tourist Attraction

The queen of Costa Rican carnivals, Puntarenas Carnival rocks the coastal town with wild pachanga music and other Latino beats every February.

The run-up to the large-scale carnival procession is filled with the continuous parading of comparsas (organized groups of carnival dancers) and vivid mascaradas (giant smiling painted heads) on the Paseo de los Turistas in the town centre, with cultural activities such as art exhibitions and fishing tournaments sprouting up throughout the week

The paramount choosing and crowning of the carnival queen takes place in the Plaza Pacífico on the first day of events, followed by the coronation dance and an explosion of fireworks in the evening. The real party, however, gets going with the carnival procession on the Saturday of the final weekend, starting in the Balneario Municipal and filing up the Paseo de los Turistas. A colourful stream of bopping heads and jigging bodies swerves to the music, making this an unmissable Costa Rica Pura Vida experience.

 This Carnival is held in Feb 2009 at Puntarenas in Costa Rica.

The King Birthday

Published by admin under Tourist Attraction

In Cambodia, the king’s birthday is a national holiday that features a fireworks display on the banks of the Tonle Sap River in front of Royal Palace - a stunning building of curving roofs with the exquisite Silver Pagoda just next door.

In Siem Reap, the base town for exploring the ruins of Angkor, locals have their photo taken in front of a freshly-decorated picture of the king. Fireworks also feature in the celebrations here and, if the king is in town, there will be traditional dance in Angkor Wat. For security reasons, however, it’s impossible to know in advance if this will take place.

Throughout Cambodia, village halls host graceful performances of classical Khmer dance, children play traditional games and the whole country takes a day off to honour the king - or HM Preah Bat Samdech Preah Norodom Sihanouk Varman, as he is officially known.

This event is held in Oct 2009 at The Royal Palace in Cambodia.
