Most tourists visiting Paris make a beeline for the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe, but if you want to feel like a local, there are countless other places to go. Here are a three of my favorite spots. Best VPN：click here Canal Saint-Martin You may have strolled along the Seine River, but have you explored the Canal Saint Martin? Here, you’ll find people sitting along the banks of the canal strumming guitars, drinking wine, and picnicking. There are also plenty of shops and restaurants to check out right off of the canal. La Coulée Verte (La Promenade Plantée) This is a former railroad line that has been transformed into a peaceful greenway. This 2.8 mile/4.5 km pedestrian route starts at the Opéra Bastille (Bastille opera house) and ends at the Bois de Vincennes, Paris’s largest park. You’ll walk on footbridges, traverse tunnels, and pass under arcades covered in greenery. Bois de Boulogne The Bois de Boulogne is a large public park in western Paris that once served as a h...

Yosemite is one of America’s great national parks. And one of the park’s best features is its waterfalls. On my last trip to Yosemite, I hiked up the Mist Trail to see Vernal and Nevada Falls. On this trip, I decided to do the Four-Mile Trail for views of Yosemite Falls. Best VPN：click here The Four-Mile Trail’s name is a little deceptive, as it’s about 4.8 miles one-way. After soaking in vistas of Yosemite Falls and El Capitan, you end up at Glacier Point, where you can finally see Half Dome. Glacier Point can be crowded, as many visitors drive here instead of hiking.  If you have energy after your ascent, you can return to your starting point for a 9.6-mile hike. Or, if you’re tired, you can take the free park shuttle back to the Valley (open seasonally). I loved this hike and seeing the waterfall from this vantage point. Next time, I’ll try the Yosemite Falls Trail for even closer waterfall views. Best VPN：click here

I’ve lived in San Francisco for nine years, and I lived in NYC for four years before that. While I enjoy my new home, here are some things I miss about the Big Apple. Best VPN：click here 1. The energy.   The second I arrive in New York, I’m energized by the size of the buildings, the number of people (~10x more than in San Francisco), and the seemingly unlimited number of things to do. New York truly is a city that never sleeps. Whether you’re up at 6 am or out until 4 am, you can find something exciting to do. 2.  The summers.   San Francisco weather is mild and pleasant most of the year, but I really miss warm summer days (and nights). While it rarely reaches 80 degrees Fahrenheit (26 degrees Celsius) in San Francisco, New York summers are sweltering. Since New Yorkers know their warm weather isn’t going to last, people also make the most of the season with outdoor movie screenings, alfresco dining, rooftop get-togethers, and more. 3. The public trans...

When people think about Hong Kong, they often picture a megalopolis with endless skyscrapers. When I think of Hong Kong, I picture something totally different—nature!  Best VPN：click here On a recent trip to the island, I learned that the Hong Kong is a true hiker’s paradise, with four major hiking trails and many other ones, too. The four major trails are The Hong Kong Trail (31 mi/50 km, 8 sections), the Maclehose Trail (62 mi/100 km, 10 sections), the Lantau Trail (43 mi/70 km, 12 sections), and the Wilson Trail (48 mi/78 km, 10 sections). After hiking over 70 miles/110 km on these trails, my favorite hike of all was section 3 of the Lantau Trail. On this hike, you climb Hong Kong’s second highest peak, Lantau Peak (3,065 feet/934 meters). You then descend into the village of Ngong Ping, where you can see the Tian Tian giant Buddha (34 meters or 111 feet tall) and visit the Po Lin Monastery. For people wanting to hike a little closer to the city center, Victoria Peak is ...

I had always wanted to go to Greece, and when I finally went, it was better than I could have imagined. The first part of my trip was to Santorini, and the island’s beauty was breathtaking. If you’re lucky enough to find yourself on this small dot in the Aegean Sea, here are some fun activities to make your trip memorable: Best VPN：click here 1. Visit a volcano.  Take a quick boat cruise to Nea Kameni, an uninhabited island just off the coast of Santorini. You can climb about 425 feet (130 meters) to view a crater and walk around its rim. 2. Swim in hot springs.  Just next to Nea Kameni is Palea Kameni, another island where you can experience natural hot springs. But don’t worry, the water isn’t scalding—it feels just like a bath! 3. Rent a scooter or quad bike.  If you have an adventurous side, rent an alternative form of transportation and feel the wind whip through your hair as you explore the island. 4. Visit black and red beaches.  Most of Santorini’s be...

White House communications director Hope Hicks, one of the President Donald Trump's most trusted and longest-serving aides, abruptly announced her resignation Wednesday, leaving a void around a president who values loyalty and affirmation.

It leaves Trump increasingly without support of the familiar aides who surrounded him during his campaign, and marks the latest in a string of high-level departures in the administration's second year. Hicks, 29, had a seemingly untouchable role in the West Wing, often viewed more as a surro...

Best VPN：click here "Some countries have a very, very tough penalty, the ultimate penalty," Trump said at a White House opioid summit.

WASHINGTON, March 4 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to levy tariffs on steel and aluminum imports has received worldwide criticism and retaliatory intentions from some of its closest allies. On Thursday, Trump announced his plan to impose penalties of 25 percent on imported steel and 10 percent on imported aluminum, which will come into effect next week. Trump's planned tariffs have sparked anger from Canada and the European Union (EU). Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Trump's plan will have "significant and serious" economic ramifications on the two nations. "The United States has a two-billion Canadian dollar surplus on steel with us, so we regard the imposition of any new tariffs or any tariffs on steel or aluminum between our two countries as absolutely unacceptable," Trudeau told a news conference on Friday. "Should restrictions be imposed on Canadian steel and aluminum products, Canada will take respons...

BRUSSELS, March 6 (Xinhua) -- The European Union (EU) on Monday threatened to take retaliatory action by charging duty on American products if U.S. President Donald Trump imposed tariffs on European steel and aluminum. EU Commissioner for Trade Cecilia Malmstrom said U.S. Levi's jeans and bourbon could be hit with a 25-percent import tax.

Gov. Jerry Brown was named in a lawsuit that seeks to block three California laws that may hinder the federal immigration agenda.CreditJim Wilson/The New York Times By Katie Benner and Jennifer Medina Best VPN：click here March 6, 2018 WASHINGTON — The Trump administration escalated what had been a war of words over California’s immigration agenda, filing a lawsuit late Tuesday that amounted to a pre-emptive strike against the liberal state’s so-called sanctuary laws.

Jerry Brown; and the state’s attorney general, Xavier Becerra, over three state laws passed in recent months, saying they made it impossible for federal immigration officials to do their jobs and deport criminals who were born outside the United States. The Justice Department called the laws unconstitutional and asked a judge to block them. The lawsuit was the department’s boldest attack yet against California, one of the strongest opponents of the Trump administra...
