Summer is almost here... and with it comes that unapologetic, sun-drenched energy we secretly (or not so secretly) live for. Think golden hour selfies, breezy brunches, beachy escapes, and skin that looks like it’s been kissed by the sun… not punished by it. Because let’s be honest, while we love the sun, we don’t want the sun damage. This season, TheGlitz says... it’s all about playing.

Bollywood stars Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal recently chose Amora Beach Resort Phuket to celebrate their second wedding anniversary. Their choice reflects a broader travel trend that is reshaping luxury tourism across Southeast Asia. Increasingly, Indian travellers are seeking destinations that blend exclusivity with authenticity, offering experiences that feel intimate rather than extravagant.

At TheGlitz, we've always believed that the best journeys happen when you move beyond guidebooks and glossy postcards. They happen when you discover the places that capture a city's rhythm, its quirks, its history, and its everyday magic. The places where locals laugh, dream, celebrate, and simply live. From Tokyo's soaring skyline and Hong Kong's iconic harbour to the artistic corners of Paris and the riverside charm of London, these are the places that don't just show you a city... they introduce you to its soul.
