Edam cheese is famous the world over for its red hued rind and signature round shape. Many people won’t realize however that Edam is actually not just the name of the cheese but also the place it comes from which is the pretty town of Edam. The town is located on the water and dates back to the 12th century and has an array of cheese related sites to enjoy. Don’t be surprised if Edam cheese looks a little different here, as it is actually sold with a yellow rind rather than a red one. Some of the signature attractions for cheese lovers here include a large cheese market and a famous cheese-weighing hall. #hoteldeals#summertrip#gourmetsummer#exhibition2021

錫蘭的微笑特別迷人，發自內心且富有感染力，尤以孩子們的為最，美好到足以凈化昔日四百餘年的殖民之苦。 相較印度而言，這裡的人們對西方殖民者的敵意沒有那麼深，因為他們習慣了被動接受，習慣了他人在這塊不大的島嶼上競相插上異國的旗幟——任誰都行——但並不代表斯里蘭卡人有多麼軟弱、畏懼鬥爭或無法學會超然地面對生死。 自知以己之力根本不足以從由宗教、殖民、民族運動以及全球化交織而成的歷史洪流中抽身，不如就微笑著由它裹挾去吧。佛教讓斯里蘭卡人保持著平和與滿足，在這一程序中，沒有什麼比享受印度洋的季風與蔚藍色的海水更重要的事了，蘭卡微笑名不虛傳。 無論是我在佛牙寺還是在康提皇家植物園，遇到的所有蘭卡人，尤其是小孩子，都會對我露出最淳樸的微笑。
