Did you know this fact?

In Brazil, the Amazon Rainforest is so vast that it spans over 9 countries, with the majority (about 60%) of it located in Brazil alone. This immense forest is home to an estimated 10% of the world’s known biodiversity, including countless species of plants, animals, and insects. It plays a crucial role in stabilizing the Earth’s climate and is often referred to as the “lungs of the planet” due to its role in producing oxygen and absorbing carbon dioxide.

About Brazil

Other South Americans regard Brazilians as a race apart and language has a lot to do with it – Brazilians understand Spanish, just about, but Spanish-speakers won’t understand Portuguese.

Brazilians also look different. In the extreme south German and Eastern European immigration hast left distinctive traces; São Paulo has the world’s largest Japanese Community outside Japan; slavery lies behind a large Afro-Brazilian population concentrated in Rio, Salvador and São Luis; while the Indian influence is still very visible in the Amazon. Italian and Portuguese immigration has been so great that its influence is felt across the entire country.
By far the largest country in South America, Brazil coves nearly half the continent and is only slightly smaller than the US, with an area of just over 8,5 million square kilometres. It shares frontier with every South America country except Chile and Ecuador. Brazil has around 200 million inhabitants, making it the fifth most populous country in the world.

Despite the immense expanses of the interior, roughly two-thirds of Brazil’s population live on or near the coast and well over half lives in cities – even in the Amazon. In Rio and São Paulo, Brazil has two of the world’s great metropolises, and ten other cities have over a million inhabitants.

It’s fair to say that nowhere in the world do people enjoy themselves more – most famously in the annual orgiastic celebrations of Carnival , but reflected, too, in the lively year-round nightlife that you’ll find in any decent-sized town. This national hedonism also manifests itself in Brazil’s highly developed beach culture, superb music and dancing and rich regionals cuisines.

Did you know this fact?

Did you know that Bolivia has its own navy, despite being a landlocked country? Established in the 1960s to patrol Lake Titicaca, the Bolivian Navy is the only navy in the world without a coastline. Although it primarily operates on the lake, it symbolizes Bolivia’s historical claim to access the Pacific Ocean, which it lost during the War of the Pacific in the late 19th century.

About Bolivia

Bolivia’s local cuisine is plentiful and varied, with each region having a local specialty. For example, in La Paz it has the ‘Chairo’, a soup made with lamb, beef and charque (dried and salted meat), all served in a terracotta bowl.

Bolivia has evolved in the last years to become today a sustainable tourist destination in which respect for nature is always present, where the connection between the local people and the visitor represents a genuine exchange and a great cultural wealth. Guarding the riches of their ecosystem has allowed Bolivia to position itself as a destination of large wild areas where the fauna and flora are preserved and observed like nowhere else.
At 1,098,581 km², Bolivia is eight times the size of England! The country has 11.6 million inhabitants, and their official language is Spanish.

The climate of Bolivia varies drastically from one eco-region to the other, from the tropics in the eastern llanos to a polar climate in the western Andes. The summers are warm and humid in the east and dry in the west, with rains that often modify temperatures, humidity, winds, and atmospheric pressure, yielding very different climates in different areas.

In Bolivia, people are culturally, racially, and socially diverse, a clear reflection of the over 36 native indigenous groups that have inhabited the country’s various regions for thousands of years, and a result of the historical assimilation of other races over time. Aymara and Quechua (2 million), Chiquitano (180,000) and Guaraní (125,000) are the four largest of Bolivia’s indigenous ethnic groups. Bolivia also has a small Afro Bolivian segment in the Yungas region.

Uyuni Salt Flat

The world’s largest salt flat with an area of nearly 11,000 km², near the crest of the Andes at an elevation of 3,656 m above sea level. Every November, the Salar de Uyuni is the breeding ground for three South American species of flamingo that feed on local brine shrimps: the Chilean, Andean, and rare James’s flamingos. During the rainy season (From November to March) the water accumulates on the Salar and creates a giant mirror that perfectly reflects the sky and clouds and allows visitors to play with the optical illusions caused by a lack of horizon.

The Lipez Region

Probably the most impressive area in terms of landscapes, the Lipez Region is not only home to the wonderful ‘Salar de Uyuni’; a huge salt desert trapped amongst the highest of the Andean volcanoes, but also The Eduardo Avaroa natural reserve. Located in South Lipez the reserve sits at 4,000 m above sea level and plays host to tremendous, coloured lagoons in the middle of a lunar landscape. In this region, visitors can discover magnificent White, Green and Red Lagoons, the incredible ‘Siloli Desert’ which is populated with strange and natural sculptures, as well as the ‘Geysers Sol de Mañana’, the famous ‘Rock Tree’, and many other highlights.

Lake Titicaca (Sun & Moon Islands)

The mythical cradle of the Tahuantinsuyo Empire, Lake Titicaca, is the highest navigable lake in the world at 3,809m above sea level. According to the legend, the first Inca, Manco Cápac and his wife Mama Ocllo, emerged from Lake Titicaca sent by their father, the Sun God, to find their Empire. The 214 cubic miles (893 km) of sacred waters are divided almost equally between Bolivia and Peru. On a cruise here, visitors will discover ‘Isla del Sol’ (Sun Island), one of the most sacred places of the Inca empire and home to the Pilkokaina (place where the bird rests), an impressive archaeological site on the shore of the island.

La Paz City

Lost among the highest Andean summits, La Paz will surprise you with its geography, culture, and atypical pace of life. It provides a particular atmosphere, like being out of time, where both modernity and indigenous authenticity show one of the most impressive backgrounds of syncretism. Discover the Plaza Murillo, La Paz’s main square for governmental and legislative functions or visit the Mercado de las Brujas (Witches Market) where you will be taken through the many streets of the market where ceremonial artifacts for rituals are sold, among many artisan objects and figures.

Valle de la Luna

The Valle de la Luna or ‘Valley of the Moon’ is an incredible geological formation located about 10 km away from the urban centre of La Paz. En route to the southern region of la Paz, as you head towards the Valle de la Luna, the road exiting the central part offers visitors the reality of a city in the mountains by exhibiting rural and seemingly uninhabited landscapes. It is said that Neil Armstrong himself named this enigmatic place as the ‘Valley of the Moon’ when visiting in 1969 because of its great resemblance to the craters that he saw on his trip to the moon.

Tiwanaku

Recognised as one of the 754 World Heritage Sites and considered the Stonehenge of the Americas, the ruin city Tiwanaku is one of the most important precursors to the Inca Empire. It remains an enigma for specialists regarding the appearance or disappearance of these ruins. Here, one can discover The Akapana pyramid, the largest building in Tiwanaku, which is considered to be a temple dedicated to the Sun God. Another attraction here is Pumapunku, a terraced earthen mound that is paved with blocks, best known for its massive stones and for the extraordinary precision of their cutting and placement. The most important monument in Tiwanaku however, is the Puerta del Sol (Gate of the Sun).

Amazon Region

One of the must-sees whilst travelling in South America is the Amazon Basin and fortunately this is one of Bolivia’s largest and most breath-taking regions. Packed full of incredible wildlife, flora, and fauna, spending at least a few days here roaming the jungle is an experience of a lifetime for those visiting Bolivia. Top of the list for visitors is the fascinating Parque Nacional Madidi; a National Park with an area of nearly 19,000 square kilometres. This is one the most biologically diverse parks in the world, with an abundance of mountains, forests, and river habitats, as well as more than 1000 species of neotropical birds, over 5000 superior plants, 44% of all new world species of mammals, and an estimated 38% of neotropical amphibians.

Sucre

Nicknamed ‘The White City’ Sucre is a city in the southern highlands of Bolivia, it is the capital of Bolivia, the capital of the Chuquisaca Department and the 6th most populated city in Bolivia. Top of the highlights list for Sucre is the whitewashed Casa de la Libertad, where Bolivia’s Declaration of Independence was signed, it houses galleries related to the city’s past as the national capital. The region is also a cultural crossroad for the indigenous communities who maintain a strong identity, many still using the Quechua language (an indigenous language spoken by the Quechua peoples). The architectural heritage and the millenarian history of the Charcas region has led to Sucre’s designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Jesuit Mission in Santa Cruz

The plains of Chiquitos are among the most revered places in the department of Santa Cruz for its cultural and natural value, it offers a beautiful evergreen landscape. Here one can find the Jesuit Missions of Chiquitos, designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990. The churches that have been rebuilt here are a stunning architectural Jesuit representation of the Mestizo Baroque style. Together, they are home to an impressive collective of more than 500 baroque music scores: a precious legacy of their colonial history.

Potosi

Also called the Imperial City of Charles V, Potosi is a colonial city with an extremely rich history. It is the second highest city in Bolivia, after El Alto (4150m), and the first Bolivian city to be declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Potosi offers visitors a different perspective on colonial history and legacy. A highlight for many visitors is the ‘Real Casa de Moneda’ (Mint of Potosí). Build between 1753 and 1773, this institution was instrumental in the development and sustainability of the Spanish Crown. Today, visitors can enjoy a museum that has different galleries dedicated to paint, art, history, and machinery used to fabricate coins.

About Turkey

Turkey – just the name itself conjures up visions of oriental splendour, mystery, and intrigue. This was the meeting point of the world’s three great civilizations; Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman.

Did you know this fact?

Scotland is home to the world’s first ever documented “monster hunt”. In the year 565 AD, the Irish missionary Saint Columba reportedly encountered the Loch Ness Monster, known affectionately as “Nessie”. While the legend of Nessie continues to captivate the imaginations of people worldwide, it was in Scotland that the myth first took root, adding to the country’s rich tapestry of folklore and mystery.

About Scotland

Culturally too Scotland punches above its weight, from the poetry of Robert Burns to the modern crime fiction of Ian Rankin or even the songs of Emeli Sandé, Scotland’s cultural exports to the world are many and appreciated as much as the famous whisky, tweed and tartan. You certainly can’t beat reading Burns’ poems in the village where he was born or enjoying an Inspector Rebus novel in Rankin’s own Edinburgh pubs, or catching the latest Scottish bands at a music festival. Museums like Dundee’s Discovery Point and V&A, Glasgow’s Kelvingrove and Aberdeen’s Maritime Museum celebrate the enormous influence of Scottish engineers, inventors, artists, explorers and writers and in shaping the modern world. Discover why, as one historian put it, this is the country that invented the modern world.
Scotland, land of Celtic myth, history and breath-taking beauty, has countless treasures crammed into its relatively compact territory – from big skies to ancient architecture, from spectacular wildlife to superb seafood and to top it all incredibly friendly, hospitable and down-to-earth people.

Outside the ancient and beautiful UNESCO World heritage capital city, Edinburgh, and other urban centres like Glasgow, once home to the largest shipping industry in the world but now a lively city of art, culture, great dining and bars, the visitor is entranced by mountains glistening with the silver threads of icy rivers and waterfalls tumbling from highlands to lowlands.

Scotland has some of the last significant wilderness areas left in Western Europe. Here you can see golden eagles soar above the lochs and mountains of the northern Highlands, watch minke whales off the coast of Mull and spot otters tumbling in the kelp along the shores of the Outer Hebrides. It is also an adventure playground: you can tramp the sub-arctic tundra plateau of the Cairngorms, sea kayak among the seal-haunted mystic isles of the Outer Hebrides, mountain bike on world-class trails near Scotland’s highest mountain, trek along the valley or mountain trails and balance along tightrope narrow ridges between the peaks of the great Cuillins on Skye.

Edinburgh

The capital of Scotland which holds two UNESCO designations for its medieval Old Town and its well-planned Georgian New Town. There are so many things to do and see, like a visit to the iconic castle, the world’s largest monument to a writer, Scotland’s crown jewels, world-class art, a walk through the underground to explore the city’s medieval past, climbing an extinct volcano known as Arthur’s Seat, and many more. Don’t miss having one of the world-famous whiskys while in town.

Loch Lomond & The Trossachs

The beautiful shores of Loch Lomond have become legend in Scotland. Britain’s largest lake, just a short drive northwest of Glasgow, enchants with myths, dreamlike landscape, and fabulous hiking trails. One will find here the Loch Lomond Shores, home to a shopping mall with local crafts, restaurants, bike and boat rentals, as well as a farmers market. It is also home to the Loch Lomond SEA LIFE Aquarium.

Glasgow

Scotland’s largest city impresses with many historical sites, green parks and spaces, a large number of Charles Rennie Mackintosh buildings, amazing street art, and a thriving live music scene. Next to the famous George Square and the city chambers, the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum is particularly worth seeing. Opened in 1901 already, it is the UK’s most visited museum outside of London. The slogan, “People Make Glasgow”, really does fit the place, as Glasgow was rates as the friendliest city in 2014.

Loch Ness and Caledonian Canal

Famous for its mythical monster “Nessie”, Loch Ness is part of a waterway connecting the east and west coasts of Scotland. The area with the canal and three other lochs is surrounded by the beautiful Highlands scenery, but there is nothing more scenic than Loch Ness itself, with the ancient ruins of Urquhart Castle on its hillside. One can easily drive here from Inverness.

Cairngorm National Park

Located in the Scottish Highlands, this is the UK’s largest National Park. The region got his name from the Scottish Gaelic phrase “Cairn na Gorms”, which means “blue mountains”. Rivers, deep blue mountain lakes, the Grampian Mountains, mystical moors, and dense forests have shaped this breathtaking natural backdrop. The ideal place for ramble walks or extensive hikes, watersports, snowsports, and wildlife watching.

Isle of Skye and the Inner Hebrides

The largest of Scotland’s inner islands, the Isle of Skye, is a paradise for nature lovers and ramblers. Remarkable is the diversity of the landscape, that reaches from green valleys, sandy beaches, rushing waterfalls, caves, to lonely glens. But also the other islands are in no way inferior – Iona, for example, is considered Scotland’s “Cradle of Christianity” and houses Scotland’s oldest Christian cemetery, with graves of more than 60 Scottish kings, including Macbeth.

St. Andrews Golf Club

As some may not know, the game of golf is an invention from Scotland. It is therefore not surprising that the country houses some iconic golf courses, such as the much revered Royal and Ancient Golf Club located in historic St. Andrews. This place was founded in 1750 already and still hosts regularly the famous British Open. You may be lucky and win one of the demanded tea times as some spaces are kept available by lottery two days in advance. Worth seeing are the majestic Clubhouse as well as the British Golf Museum.

Fort William & Ben Nevis

Britain’s tallest mountain, Ben Nevis, is best to explore from the picturesque town of Fort William. It is well worth taking the 2.5 hours hike to the top where one can enjoy spectacular views over the Scottish Highlands and as far as Ireland. The coastal town of Fort William is also starting point of famous The Jacobite steam train which follows the West Highland Line over the spectacular Glenfinnan Viaduct and made itself a name by the Harry Potter movies.

The Northern Highlands

You can’t visit Scotland without having been to the Highlands. A mystic landscape with a long history, at once violent and romantic. Spread over this outstanding natural beauty are tiny little villages and towns, such as the pretty coastal village of Dornoch or John o’Groats where a world-famous sign proclaims the northernmost point of Britain. One can explore this northern tip of Scotland by following the scenic route of North Coast 500 (or NC500).

Robbie Burns Heritage Trail

The country’s most famous son, the poet Robbie Burns, can be traced along the Burns Heritage Trail which crosses some of Scotland’s most beautiful parts. One can visit the Robert Burn Birthplace Museum in Alloway, where there is also the perfectly preserved thatched house in which he was born and spent much of his childhood. The tour heads south to Dumfries, home of the Robert Burns House where he spent the last four years of his life, and the St. Michael’s Churchyard with his final resting place.
