     A. The world acclaims its wines from the vineyards of the rolling hills and valleys of the Hunter region. The Hunter Valley is the oldest commercial wine producing district with 7,000 acres under vine. Travelers can enjoy visiting historic Wollombi and the Old Tovern and the lower Hunter Valley, trying local cheeses and complimenting fine wines.

     B. Sydney, which lies on the eastern coast of Australia, is a beautiful city with its holiday villages, white sandy beach and the sparkling ocean.

     C. Las Vegas is really a fascinated city, where you will be attracted by many things. Among them, the most attractive thing is gambling. Maybe you will become a millionaire or lose all your money overnight.

     D. Few cities leave the visitors with such vivid impressions, the whole city is something of a work of art, the quiet River Seine, the Eiffel Tower, Palais du Louvre and so on are really feast to your eyes. And annual film festival is held with a refreshing emphasis in art. Few cities can compete with the thousands of cafes, bars and restaurants that line every Parisian street.

     E. Kitzbuhel is a paradise for all the skiers. With fine weather and breath-taking scenery, it is a world-class ski resort. Every winter, thousands of people come from all parts of the world to challenge themselves. If you can't ski, don't worry. The town offers many shops, cafe and a variety of entertainment.

     F. Jerusalem is regarded as a holy place by Jews, Muslims and Christians. For Jews, it is where their ancestors built the first and second temples. Muslims knew it as the place where the Prophet (先知) Mohammed passed up to heaven. For Christians the city was the scene of Jesus' life. However, since the war broke out, people there have suffered a lot, the situation has been tense, and peace is just a dream.
