Shubra Palace is a notable attraction in the city both for its architectural beauty and its cultural significance. This historic building exemplifies traditional Ta'if architecture and houses the Ta'if Regional Museum. The museum's exhibits offer insights into Saudi royal history—King Abdul-Aziz and later King Faisal resided in the palace.

A small village called La Chole, located only 25 minutes away from Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo, houses a fascinating archaeological site. Since the 1930's many artifacts have been found here, such as jewelry linked to many cultures, including the Tarascan, Aztec, Toltec and Olmec. You can also visit an onsite museum with many of these astonishing findings.

Örebro Konsthall displays contemporary art by Swedish and international artists through permanent and temporary exhibitions. More than 200 artworks are located outside the gallery and scattered around the city, an initiative culminating in the biennial Örebro Open Art Festival.

On the world map of fishing locations, Christmas Island may only rate a small dot, however fish being caught here are making a big mark amongst the international fishing fraternity. The secret is out! Anglers around the world are starting to find out that Christmas Island is the hottest new spot for big fish in South East Asia. Within a few hundred metres of the boat launching facilities, it is possible to fish in thousands of metres of water for Sailfish, Tuna, Wahoo and all the other exciting species that you usually find in tropical locations. The difference is that on Christmas Island the fish are BIG, very BIG. When the ocean currents bring the tuna in, it is possible to see fish in excess of 100 kilograms feeding on the surface. While the Yellowfin Tuna roam and pass the island quite regularly, Dogtooth Tuna live permanently on the steep drop-offs that surround Christmas Island. Some of them grow to be over 80 kilograms. If you prefer the high flying aerial displays of a sailfish, during the pre-monsoon months some of the biggest Sailfish in the world are to be found around Christmas Island. Even trolling within a few hundred metres of the shoreline you will find the razor gang. Wahoo are the fastest fish in the world and Christmas Island is their favourite racetrack.
