Places on Earth Where Gravity DOESN'T WORK RIGHT!
Newton's law of Universal Gravitation states that every particle attracts every other particle with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.
Although this law applies to every particle, there are some places on this planet that seem to completely ignore it.
Here are 5 Places on Earth Where Gravity, DOESN'T WORK RIGHT!
1. Mount Aragats, Armenia
Thousands of tourists travel here to experience the odd phenomena that happens at "The Gravity Hill". If you stop your car and put it in neutral and then release the brake your car begins to travel uphill. Pedestrians find it surprisingly easy to climb the hill and there are also various rivers in the area that flow upwards!
2. The Mystery Spot, Santa Cruz, California
Electrician George Prather discovered this location in 1939, while he was out walking, he suddenly felt dizzy and noticed that things didn't quite feel right in this area. Intrigued, he bought 3 acres of the land and proceeded to build a house on it. To help demonstrate the oddities of the area, George built the house at a 20-degree angle thus exaggerating the antigravity effect of the area.
3. The Oregon Vortex, Oregon
According to local legend, this site was referred to by Native Americans as the "forbidden" ground. An assay office built by Old Grey Mining company in 1904 slid off its foundations and ended up at an odd angle, accentuating the gravitational oddities of the area. People seem to grow or shrink, balls roll uphill, things seem to hang at odd angles, and visitor's bodies lean towards Magnetic North.
4. The Golden Boulder, Myanmar
This gigantic boulder had a pagoda built on it and was painted gold by the locals and has been defying gravity for 2500 years! Perched impossibly on a rock, 50 foot up, Legend has it that it is held there by Buddha's hair and can only be moved by a woman, hence no women are allowed to touch it.
5. Magnetic Hill, Black Rock, Australia
On the Black Rock Road is a place called Magnetic hill, a place where the power of magnetism seems to overpower that of gravity. When you get there you'll find a signpost telling you to turn your Ignition off, select neutral, and let go of the brakes. if your vehicle is steel you'll roll uphill, if it's aluminium or plastic you'll roll down.
6. Backwards Waterfall
When it comes to antigravitational phenomena, perhaps none are quite as spectacular as this waterfall where the water doesn't fall! some locals believe that this happens because gravity has less effect on the area around the falls, but scientists claim that it is due to strong air currents blowing the water up.

5-tourist-traps-to-avoid-in-l-a
Get more Tips here! http://www.destinationtips.com
Sometimes we are so eager to visit another city that we forget not everything is so worthy to see. Let's see 5 tourist traps to avoid in L.A.
1) Star tours
You hire these van tours hoping to see some famous people in their houses or at least something special. The truth is that they are so hidden that you will only see the door of their houses and not too much more. Save your money and rent a car instead.
2) Rodeo Drive
We imagine ourselves there like Pretty Woman in the movie. But unless you are rich o don't mind to spend an insane amount of money there. That's not your place.
3) Hollywood Walk of Fame
This is just a sidewalk full of dirty stars and surrounded by souvenir shops. Not really an amazing attraction to see, right?
4) Santa Monica Pier
This pier loses all its charm because it's full of tourists form all the world and the shops and resturants around it are ver expensive, so don't loose your time there.
5) Venice Boardwalk
You come here looking for the beach, but you'll also find too much souvenir shops, a lot of people offering you discounts and... well... you'll find almost anything you weren't looking for.
Did you already know all of these traps in L.A.?

MOST
most-stunning-destinations-you-ll-want
Europe is the second smallest continent and the third largest in population. Rich in culture, history, art, and architecture, it's no surprise that out of the top ten tourist destinations in the world, Europe has 5.
In addition to iconic landmarks like The Colosseo, The Eiffel Tower, Buckingham Palace, or The Alhambra, Europe has tremendous Natural beauty and diversity.
From Snowy Mountains, down Cliffside waterfalls to dramatic coastlines, here are the 10 Most Stunning Destinations You'll Want To Visit in Europe.
1. Meteora, Greece.
The Magnificent Meteora valley was originally home to 24 monasteries built on immense natural rock pillars and only accessible via ladders or rope baskets as a defense mechanism against attackers. Nowadays only 6 Monasteries remain, Access has been made easier with staircases carved into the stone, rope bridges, and paved walkways but it's best not to try to visit them all in one day as you'll end up missing more than you'll see.
2. Hallstatt, Austria.
This Fairytale town is rumored to have been the inspiration for Arendelle in the Frozen films. Situated by a crystal clear lake and overlooked by majestic mountains its beauty stems from how it sits in perfect harmony with its surroundings, and it's only made more beautiful when it snows....
3. Bay of Kotor, Montenegro.
In the Adriatic sea, a narrow inlet gives you access to the splendor of Kotor Bay. Medieval Towns nestled at the foot of rocky green mountains, curvy mountain roads wind from one wonder to the next, Old Citadels, Venetian fortifications, and boat trips to Island monasteries.
4. Dolomites, Italy.
A Majestic mountain range in northern Italy, The Dolomite's jagged rocky mountains contrast beautifully with its undulating alpine meadows. The Dolomites are beautiful all year round making it an ideal destination for both Hikers and Skiers.
5. Faroe Islands, Denmark
18 Volcanic islands off the North coast of Scotland. The Faroe Islands are an almost untouched collection of Remote villages, lush valleys, and spectacular cliffs and waterfalls. Visit from November to February to see its windswept, crisp arctic beauty crowned by the Northern Lights.
6. Transfagarasan Highway, Romania.
Set in the Carpathian Mountains, this winding road meanders through high mountain passes and river valleys. The Incredible scenery, sharp descents, and tight bends attract cyclists and drivers from all over the globe, and many claim that it is the most spectacular road in the world!
7. Madeira, Portugal.
Also known as "The Garden Island", Madeira seems to have it all. Beautiful beaches, Stunning mountain trails leading down to Coastal cliffs. you can surf, sail or scuba dive or just sit down at a Quaint cafe and enjoy Madeira wine and local seafood whilst you overlook the ocean.

15-things-not-to-do-in-singapore
Singapore is considered a contemporary, commercial, cosmopolitan city-state
However, in this former British colony there are a few rules, taboos and quirks you should be aware of so as not to offend anyone
Here are 15 things NOT to do in Singapore
1. Don't Chew Gum – Unless you Have Prescription
You can be fined $500 if you chew and drop gum, but an exception is made for “therapeutic purposes” with a prescription.
2. Remember to Flush
“An*l” culture? If you do your doody in a public washroom without flushing the evidence, you can be fined $150!
3. No N*kedness, Even in Private
Parading around in your birthday suit, even in your own home, is akin to p*rnography. It can result in a fine up to $2000.
4. Don’t Litter
Littering can result in a $1000 fine. You might think that's rubbish, but don’t trash the place and you won’t have to worry.
5. Don’t Show Feet
Many Asians think of feet as dirty. It's considered offensive to point with toes or show the bottoms of your feet.
6. Don’t Discuss Religion
Discuss topics like religion, and you could be considered offensive. It's best to avoid hot button discussions unless you keep your cool.
7. Don’t Take Taxis
Why take a taxi when the public transportation system in Singapore is one of the best in the world? The MRT (mass rapid transit) system is fast and comfortable.
8. Don’t Snack on the MRT
Singapore’s MRT has been a “no eating or drinking” zone since 1987. Fines can be up to $500 for daring to bite!
9. Unsecured WiFi
Check the “auto-discovery” setting is turned off in Singapore. Tapping into an unsecured WiFi network is a crime almost akin to hacking.
10. Don’t Tip
In Singapore, tipping is not a standard practice, so no need to leave some extra coins for your waiter.
11. Don’t Give Gifts Without Research
Don’t wrap a gift in white, as that symbolizes mourning, or present a gift with your left hand. Furthermore, it’s common to refuse a gift not once, twice, but three times before accepting it!
12. Don’t Smoke in Public
Public smoking is prohibited. There are some designated places where you are permitted to puff, but there’s a $200 fine if you mess up.
13. No Graffiti
Spray painting on a wall, or carving a name in a bench could result in a public caning. This city occasionally sentences offenders to punishment for acts of v*ndalism.
14. No Dr*gs – Even Before You Arrive
You can get into trouble for having dr*gs in your system when arriving in Singapore, even if you ingested them before you stepped foot in the country.
15. Don’t Finger Point
In Singapore, pointing an index finger at someone is perceived as rude, so keep your digits to yourself and you won’t make waves!
Heard of any others?

ARMEN

Get more Tips here! www.destinationtips.com
Armenia... The often overlooked nation has tons of activities to keep even the most discerning traveler happy through the duration of your stay. That said, it’s also possible to get into a little bit of trouble so here are some Armenian Street Smarts to keep you safe!
1. Don’t Be Afraid of the Locals
In general, Armenians are always very friendly when talking to visitors. They’re a warm-hearted people who will bend over backwards to help out a stranger. If you’re lost or you just have questions, consider asking a resident.
2. Don’t Take the Midday Buses
When in a big city like Armenia’s capital of Yerevan, the buses in the middle of the day are always super crowded to the point that finding a seat is basically impossible. Instead, take the city’s underground transit. It’s just as inexpensive and much quicker.
3. Don’t Stay in the Cities All the Time
Armenian cities are great, but if you skip the nation’s gorgeous countryside, you’re not getting the most of your trip. Consider taking a vacation to some of the world’s oldest wineries.
4. Don’t Go to Bed Early
Especially when you’re spending some time in a big city, be sure to take a little late night trip to one of the inner city’s thriving cafes. They’re a perfect opportunity for a little bit of people watching.
5. Don’t Skip the Vernissage
These open air markets are scattered throughout Armenia. They’re a great place to find some homegrown crafts like jewelry, woodwork, paintings, and a whole lot more. These artisan-crafted treasures are perfect souvenirs for pretty much any traveler.
Where do you want to know what not to do in next?

GUN L
gun-laws-around-the-world
# Gun Control In Other Countries
It seems like every day, there’s someone on the news or the internet that’s dead set on voicing their opinions about America’s guns. The second amendment in the Constitution has become a hot button issue over the last several years as the media focuses more and more on the spree of mass shootings that have become commonplace in our modern society.
Of course, that’s America; the rest of the world has tackled the gun issue in a different manner. And since it’s sometimes helpful to view our own countries through the lens of others’ experiences, here, for your consideration, are a few of the ways our international brethren have handled guns in their country.
1. Canada Is Close, But Stricter
Canada Is probably closest to America in terms of gun laws. You have to be 18, pass a background check, and take a public safety course. However, Canadians don’t tend to use their guns on each other like in the U.S. Canada’s firearm-related homicide rate is around seven times lower than America's.
2. Israel Gets by With Its Unique Culture
In Israel, military service is compulsory. So because pretty much everyone is a soldier, guns of all types are a daily reality in the country.
3. Japan Leans Strict Regulation
Japan is the country with the lowest instance of gun crime in the world. Only one in every ten million of its citizens are victims of gun crime. Some experts link this phenomenon to Japan’s incredibly strict gun laws.
4. Germany Has Seen Good Results From Psychiatric Tests
Germany has an incredibly high ownership of guns. However, the gun homicide rate in the country is one of the lowest in the entire world. It probably has something to do with the strict psychiatric tests for anyone under the age of 25 applying for a gun license.
5. How Afghanistan Operates in the Aftermath of War
About one in 25 people own a gun there, and except for a background check, it’s reasonably easy to own a private weapon and even carry it openly in the streets.
6. South Africa Takes a While
The process of getting a firearm in the country can take up to two years from the date of your first application and citizens are even required to submit to a home review.
7. The United Kingdom Offers Odd Statistics
Since the 80's, the U.K. has implemented increasingly stringent firearms laws. However, according to analysts, gun crimes in the UK didn’t actually peak until 2004, leading them to believe that in some cases, legislation doesn’t curb gun crime.
8. South Korea Wins Most Restrictive
Surprisingly South Korea has the most restrictive gun laws in the entire developed world. No one is allowed to keep a private firearm in their home. Even hunting weapons and air rifles are kept at local police stations!
9. Guns South of the
