- Machu Picchu is one of those destinations on virtually everyone’s bucket list – and for good reason. This iconic, archaeological UNESCO World Heritage site was built by the Incan people in the fifteenth century, either as a royal estate or a sacred worship site. The precision of the stone construction, which sprawls over five miles, employed a style and technology otherwise unknown to the area. Its existence is so unusual, many feel that there is no way this could have been constructed by humans alone. Weather is warm and humid during the day and cool during the night. Temperatures range between 11 and 27 degrees Celsius (52 and 81 degrees Fahrenheit). This zone is normally rainy (1955 mm), especially between November and March.
- Bavaria with the dramatic Alps as a backdrop is a story-book forest of castles perched high atop scenic mountains. In fact, Schloss Neuschwanstein was the model for Disney’s Sleeping Beauty Castle.

Other major cities in Bavaria include: Nuremberg (Nürnberg), Augsburg, Würzburg, Regensburg, Ingolstadt, Fürth and Erlangen. The two major rivers that flow through Bavaria are the Danube (Donau) and the Main.

Somebody likes architecture, other parks and museums, cafes or restaurants. So, just walk and take pictures at any time of the year.
- When you think of Edinburgh, what is it that comes to mind? Kilts? Or, maybe it’s the incomparable Whisky? This compact hilly capital of Scotland is charmingly divided into two sections, the medieval Old Town which has preserved much of its medieval street plan and Reformation-era buildings – and then the elegant, Georgian New Town, an area richly adorned with gardens and neoclassical buildings. Perched high above the city are the bold stone turrets of Edinburgh Castle, home to Scotland’s Crown Jewels and the fabled Stone of Destiny used in the coronation of Scottish rulers.
