Hawaii is the rainbow capital of the world. Here’s what that means

February 10, 202598 Views

Hawaii’s regular sunshine, short rain showers and clean air come together to create some of the planet’s best conditions for viewing rainbows. They’re such a frequent sight that a University of Hawaii professor calls the state the “rainbow capital of the world.” Right now it’s the winter rainy season in the islands, which means the odds of seeing a rainbow are even higher than usual. Rainbows emerge so often in Hawaii they’ve become popular symbols of island life. Pictures of them adorn buildings, the sides of public buses and appear on standard vehicle license plates. University of Hawaii sports teams are even named after rainbows. A rainbow appears in the sky on Oct. 28, 2024, in Honolulu.

Anantara Hotels & Resorts, the experiential luxury brand of Minor Hotels, unveils its first property in India—Anantara Jewel Bagh Jaipur. Serving as a peaceful gateway to the Pink City's many cultural attractions, the luxurious retreat is a sanctuary of verdant grounds and palatial architecture.

Avant-garde Taiwanese art and authentic Burmese biryani in Taipei

Taipei has held a special place in my heart since I first visited in 1994, the summer before I went to university in Britain to study Chinese, a language I was drawn to because of my interest in Taiwan and its unusual international situation. After periods studying and working in Taipei over the years, I returned full-time in 2019 as the Reuters Taiwan bureau chief. I have covered everything from elections and semiconductors to the thriving pop music scene, a blast from the past given the hours I spent as a young man perfecting my Chinese skills at all-night karaoke sessions. Taiwan is so much more than microchips and geopolitical tensions. Here is how to spend time in the capital and its environs, the local way: An exhibit at the National Palace Museum.

Lodge manager and chef, George Newling-Ward, has once again transformed the food and beverage offering at a popular southern Thai ecolodge — Anurak Community Lodge beside Khao Sok national park in southern Thailand. His aim is to make food and drink at Anurak Lodge a reason to visit as much as hiking, biking, kayaking and planting trees in one of the most visually spectacular nature settings in southeast Asia. After a previous stint as manager at the ecolodge between 2018 and 2022, Newling-Ward, an acclaimed chef from the British Virgin Islands, returned to Anurak Community Lodge in October 2024.
