The ITC Grand Central has a palatial feel, modelled on the architectural styles of the British Raj in India. Marble floors, plush carpets and gold touches throughout provide an elegant vibe, while nods to the city’s heritage are evident in its architectural features and artworks. Spot a replica of the Rajabai Clock Tower in the courtyard between the main hotel and the restaurant, and note the old photographs and drawings of Colaba in the lobby and hallways.
Welcome to Almaden Quicksilver County Park, spectacular in natural diversity and a landmark of California history. The park is the site of over 135 years of mining activities and former home to more than 1,800 miners and their families. The park encompasses 4,163 acres, occupying a majority of Capitancillos Ridge. During early spring, the park offers one of the most spectacular wildflower displays in the region. Remnants of the mining era also offer an exciting look into the mining operations of the latter part of the 19th century.What’s your favourite thing about winter? Hot Milo every night? Cosy nights in front of the fire while it storms outside? Skipping the gym for a snuggly sleep-in? For us, the best part about winter is the fashion. Or more specifically, the coats, boots, hats and scarves. We’re guessing that most of you are with us! By the time winter comes around, we are more than ready to send our denim shorts to the back of the wardrobe, and reintroduce ourselves to the winter fashion and accessories we once had on high rotation.
