Boryeong Mud Festival in South Korea is the location of the annual Mud Festival and it is one of the more unusual weekends I have spent travelling, yet one I recommend. Daecheon beach area in Boryeong in South Korea is the location for this event and the mud in thsi area is said to have a healing effect.
This festival has been going on since 1998 and now it is an annual event which attracts as many foreigners a
s it does Koreans. Many of the foreigners you will see are normally Western teachers and people who decide to join in can enjoy a bit of mud wrestling, shopping for mud products (including mnud soap), mud massages, walking in the shallow sea waters or eating in one of the local restaurants.
This is a fairly small event on a world wide schedule but one worth popping down to visitif you are already in South Korea on business, workign or travelling in. Photos of the Boryeong Mud Festival can be seen online. You can also learn more about Festivals in South Korea here.

Combining a love of chocolate and travel can be a great way to spend a holiday or vacation and so our 5th travel idea from 1000 is to attend a Chocolate Tour trip. Many people love to visit NYC and the NYC Chocolate Tour group are one such tour who organise a trip around some of the finest chocolate shops in Manhatten, in addition to chocolate tasting and making locations.
There are also a number of chocolate making workshops and many excellent ones, especially in countries 
including Switzerland, Belgium and in the UK. Sites such as Chocolate Cioccolata list a number of Chocolate tours and trip syou might want to consider.
Some of the most popular Chocolate holidays tend in fact to be to Chocoate factories and these include Hersheys in the USA and Cadburys in England.
