I love this navigation

I have found this wesbite while searching for websites which have flash introduction.
This website is for children, and it has successful in its new way of teaching, children learn by images and sound. All the navigation are flash, I guess all the child love it when moving the mouse to diffrent point and find out what it appears.

From this point, I think tourist are kind of person who like to discover things, they like to find something new, something they have never seen or touched. Therefore, a navigation that order in different way like the website given above is really nice.

May be this kind of navigation some people will not like, they think it takes so long to find out what the buttons are for. But for a tourism website, this is reasonable

Beautiful travel website

As the project leader, I more concern in the project scope and architecture.
I think the scope for travel website is users be able to know where they are and how they can or should go to.
This is very important because if tourism do not have any information from our website, they would never visit our website again.

I have found this travel website, which has won the best website in 2006

This website contains lots of high quality pictures, it makes me feel that wow I wish iI could be there and stay for a night. This has made it success in advertising its hotels and resorts.
For the directions, it has maps and specific distances to different places. This is nice, users can have the feeling that this webiste does care about customers and it would do anything to give the best service. However, because this website is about hotels and resorts places around 1 area; therefore, the map does not give us much information. We does not really know how to get there and how far is it.

From this point, I want to do something the same, but in more effective way. We should make a more fuctional webiste, more information about how and where to go in graphic design
