GREAT ESCAPE
GREAT ESCAPE Central Thailand
You don’t have to head far from the capital to get the best out of Thailand: start with a foodie tour of Bangkok’s markets, before retracing WWII heritage in Kanchanaburi, and feeling the peace among the temples of Ayuthaya. Now it’s island-hopping time, so make for the beach heaven of Ko Kut and the jungle interior of Ko Chang
CITIES SPECIAL
NEW YORK CITY ON THE LEVEL
North, south, east and west, begone. To take a true reading of New York City, look not left and right, but up and down – from an underground music club sunk below the concrete foundations to a wraparound rooftop observation deck, 70 storeys above the teeming sidewalks

Secrets of Santiago
A nation that spans frozen fjords and dusty deserts, Chile claims the top spot in our Best in Travel list this year, making it the number-one country to visit in 2018. In the midst of these epic landscapes is the capital, Santiago – its skyscrapers rising tall against a backdrop of snowy sierras. Long bypassed by visitors to Chile, this city is currently undergoing a renaissance, with a lively arts scene, revived urban spaces and an evolving food culture. Here are eight stops to make on your own pilgrimage
Cities in Bloom
Every spring in Japan, sakura (cherry blossom) forecasts are played on the radio and TV, just like the weather. The arrival of the blossoms heralds a nationwide festival to celebrate the passage of the seasons, the start of spring, and the fleeting beauty of the flowers. Hanami is the main format for celebrations, involving picnics and parties beneath the cherry trees. In popular spots, people book time off work and camp out to stake claim to the sought-after sakura. It’s a land grab! Other areas are quieter, though. The festival attracts people of different ages, professions and sensibilities: there’s a collective interest in the blossoms, and it’s a national spectacle. I love nature, so I found it interesting and profound to see a mass of people paying such respect to the seasonal cycle in the urban environments of Tokyo and Kyoto, which I visited for this project. Joining in this centuries-old tradition made me feel a part of something precious. I especially liked the notion of wabi-sabi that underpins the festival: it is the philosophy of appreciating something in all its forms, and seeing beauty in imperfection
