[🇵🇹] Vamos falar de COMIDA na CHINA? 🌶️🍲🥢
O que se come é um grande tema para quem vai viajar, mas ainda há algum tabu com a comida da China, que é tão diferente da que encontramos nos restaurantes chineses em Portugal e também da ideia errónea de que só comem cães e baratas!

Este Julho, ao longo da nossa viagem pela Rota da Seda, tivemos a oportunidade de nos perdermos pelos sabores autênticos deste país incrível. A comida é um festival de frescura, preparada na hora e com respeito. Cada prato é uma explosão de sabores, cores e tradições. Das bancas de rua aos mercados locais, a variedade e a riqueza dos ingredientes refletem a diversidade regional da China.

Comer na China é uma autêntica celebração da cultura e da vida!

[🇬🇧] Let's talk about FOOD in CHINA? 🌶️🍲🥢

What you eat is a big topic for anyone travelling, but there's still some taboo about Chinese food, which is so different from what you find in Chinese restaurants in Portugal and also the misconception that they only eat dogs and cockroaches!

This July, as we travelled along the Silk Road, we had the opportunity to lose ourselves in the authentic flavours of this incredible country. The food is a festival of freshness, freshly prepared with respect. Each dish is an explosion of flavours, colours and traditions. From street stalls to local markets, the variety and richness of ingredients reflect China's regional diversity.

Eating in China is a true celebration of culture and life!

TRANSIBERIAN RAILWAY
📆 6 - 25 June 2025
A Railway Adventure crossing Russia, Mongolia and China 🚂

Picture this: you're kicking back, jotting down thoughts in your journal while the scenery shifts outside the train window, and savouring a delicious meal in the restaurante car. It's like time freezes, and all that matters is the world rolling past through the window. With no Wi-Fi to distract, it's pure focus, total presence. It's our go-to meditation spot, no question 😊

We get why some people might hesitate about venturing into Russian territories right now, but there's way more to a country than its politics. It's totally safe for foreigners to explore, and with the new electronic visa for tourists, getting a visa is now easier (and cheaper!) than ever. This multi-country railway adventure is a melting pot of culture, steeped in history, surrounded by breathtaking nature, with friendly locals and delicious tradicional cuisines to taste.

These are some of Tânia Neves' favourite memories from her travels on the Transiberian Railway! Ready to jump aboard for the journey of a lifetime?

The Transiberian journey is back on track, and you can already book your spot for our 2025 tour over at https://unusualvoyages.com/tour/transiberian-06-2025/

Andreia Ventura wrote a little about her experience travelling to Nepal with :

"Nepal has been a dream of mine since childhood. From the moment I caught wind of this country I looked at photographs of Kathmandu and its surroundings over and over again and never seemed to get tired of them.

But it wasn’t until I finally set foot on Nepalese soil that I understood the depth of my longing. It felt surreal, like stepping into a living postcard! From the mountains to the city, from the food to the landscapes, everything was just as I imagined, but what truly set Nepal apart was its people: warm, resilient and deeply rooted in tradition"

The Eagle Festival in Altai, Mongolia, is an annual gathering that celebrates the nomadic Kazakh traditions of hunting with golden eagles.

Every year, dozens of participants compete in a variety of categories, focusing on the speed, precision and control of their eagles. There are also horse racing demonstrations, archery competitions and other traditional Kazakh games, with lots of music and food mixed in.

The Eagle Festival is an opportunity for the nomads of this region to come together, share stories and keep their ancestral traditions alive. It is also an incredible opportunity for travelers to immerse themselves in the rich Mongolian culture, experiencing first-hand their local music, dances, cuisine and crafts.

This unique event offers a fascinating insight into life on the vast steppes of Mongolia and highlights the extraordinary connection between the Mongolian people and the magnificent golden eagles, which have played a vital role in the region’s livelihood and culture over the centuries.

All photos are from our Eagle Hunters tour last year, taken by Travelling with Tania with Fujifilmxpt XT-3 and X-Pro3 cameras
