The Secret Buddha Garden was built in 1976 by a fruit farmer called Nim Thongsuk and took around fifteen years to finish. This peaceful place can be found in the hills of Samui Island inside the verdant jungle. The garden is decorated with sculptures portraying both humans and deities in various poses. Getting there quite difficult so booking a tour in advance is highly recommended.

These fabulous mountains of West MacDonnell Ranges stretch for 644 kilometres east and west of Alice, with numerous water holes, beautiful gorges, historic sites and Aboriginal rock art as well as plenty of walking trails, wildlife and good bush camping. Some places are within a reach of 10-20 kilometres from town, so head here and enjoy its rich atmosphere.

The 223-kilometre Larapinta Trail stretches through the park and offers extended and overnight bushwalks.

The Dales is one of the Island's iconic sites and one of the few places with permanent flowing water and stunning wet areas, providing significant habitat for endemic blue crabs and impressive stands of Tahitian chestnut trees. The drive through the Dales leads through rainforest to a scenic and tranquil area, which has two walking trails starting from the Dales 4WD car park. The first trail is mostly a boardwalk, leading to Hugh's Dale Waterfall, about 1 kilometre each way from the car park. Signage along the trail offers information on the island's plants and animals. For the adventurous, the second trail leads on from Hugh's Dale for about 800 metres to Anderson's Dale, a small gorge with a stream that flows to the sea.

Freedom is woven into every brick of its architectural façade, and history resonates in every room and corridor. As the birthplace of American independence, Independence Hall witnessed the signing of both the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. Generations of visitors have stepped back in time to explore the Assembly Room, the Courtroom of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, the Long Gallery, the Governor’s Council Chamber, and the Committee of the Assembly Chamber. Many historical figures, including Benjamin Franklin and Abraham Lincoln, have walked these halls, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire.
