Good news for culture lovers. Three more of London's big museums will have free admission from the end of this year. The Victoria and Albert will abolish entry fees from November 22, followed by the Natural History and Science Museums on December 1. The savings on entry to all three museums will total #22 (about HK$240). Admission to a number of the capital's major galleries is already free, including the British Museum, Tate Modern, Tate Britain, the National Gallery and the National Portrait Gallery. Getting around London has also been made cheaper, and a one-day bus pass for the famous red buses has been introduced.

The 28-room hotel, Ladies First, is located in Zurich, and only female guests - and staff - are accepted. Many women executives dine in their rooms at hotels because they find it can be intimidating sitting alone in restaurants. Guests say they can relax more in the environment at Ladies First. Romania, home to vampire legends, plans to solve its tourism teething problems by building a Dracula theme park. To add a touch of historic flavour, Dracula Land will be built in the medieval Transylvanian city of Sighisoara, about 300km from the capital, Bucharest. Sighisoara, which is also known as Schaessburg, was home to Vlad the Impaler, a 15th-century prince who inspired Bram Stoker to write Dracula. The prince amused himself by impaling his enemies on stakes. His birthplace in the city is now a restaurant. The park will be completed in around two years, at a cost of US$15 million (about HK$117 million). Shangri-La's Golden Sands Resort, on Penang's popular Batu Feringgi beach, peninsular Malaysia, has refurbished all 395 rooms and suites at a cost of about US$6 million. The hotel opened in 1979.
