Travel Free Ranking and URL submission at siteranking.com Italy is home to such a staggering amount of monumentally significant culture and history, it's a little difficult to get your head around it. More maps... In two and a half thousand years, three great cultural waves - the Roman Empire, the Catholic Church and the Renaissance - have swept out of Italy to reform the outlook of European peoples. So fair to assume that even half a lifetime of travel and exploration on this Mediterranean peninsula, would scarcely be enough to uncover all the country has to offer. Like Greece , the Aegean coast of Turkey and the Dalmatian coast of Croatia , Italy is something of a vast open-air museum with thousands of ruins from classical antiquity. But essentially, that's only an early historical sideshow to later architectural and civic triumphs: Byzantine temples, mediaeval castles, gothic churches... the foundation of the Republics of Venice, Florence, Genoa... Rennaisance art and architecture... and the scientific and cultural legacies of Galileo, da Vinci, Botticelli, Michelangelo, Dante, Macchiavelli, Verde, Puccini and a seemingly endless list of other Italian illuminaries.

The ancient Romans called it Pitecusae Aenaria Inarime Arime Iscla . Today, the island of Ischia is renowned for its unparallelled natural beauty, for its mild climate all year round and its thermal waters. More books... Approaching the island across the sea from the mainland, Ischia rises from the water like a vision - as though it were a large vessel adorned for a feast, where the sides, decks, portholes, shrouds, masts and other accoutrements are all decorated in green. Even the peaks of the smallest rocks along the coastline are covered in rich vegetation. Ischia's verdure can even be found in the stones - for example, the famous green tufa found in the Forio area, whose stones make up the beautiful and unique parracine (dry stone walls) which punctuate the vineyards' thick green expanses. The greenery does not hide the natural beauty of the lay of the land. Ischia has a very varied landscape, including mountains, isolated hills, majestic promontories, slopes, plains, and brows of hills, all of which can easily be seen from the magnificent terrace of the soccorso in Forio from which the incredible beauty of [ article continues... ] Sandro & Raffaele Buono, represent Ischia's Hotel Europa , providing hospitality and organised trips to the island's vineyards, wine cellars and marine surroundings.

Despite the impending financial crisis, Gerry Schwartz found Buenos Aires a city with great architecture, wide boulevards, and a love of food at all hours. Springtime in Patagonia: "Muy Bonita" Bariloche was a relaxing break from the stress of Buenos Aires and it remided Gerry Schwartz of a Swiss alpine town. Mendoza: Vino and the High Andes Do Mix Gerry Schwartz found a little slice of Italy in northwestern Argentina. On the Buses Long distance buses ar a great way to cover the vast distances of Argentina. It also gave Gerry Schwartz a great opportunity to chat with the locals.

A war with Chile claimed Bolivia's coastline 125 years ago, but that doesn't mean the people have forgotten their love of the sea - or hatred of Chile. Rediscovering a Lost World Rob Hawke makes the ultimate pilgrimage of nature, a journey to the heart of isolation, in Noel Kempff National Park, Bolivia.

El Choro: Trekking in Bolivia The lush vegetation, ancient undisturbed architecture, countless waterfalls and extreme physical challenge made El Choro stick in Chris Douglas's mind as the most rewarding hiking experience he has ever had. Los Pistoleros Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid are Justin Pushman's favorite Bolivia guides, now if only they had told him to bring a jacket. Where's My Dealer? Probably on the same boat as the other gringos, but Justin Pushman would be just as happy to find a fish restaurant. On the Bolivian Trail of "Che" Juan Larranaga visited two small Bolivian towns that were significant in the life and death of Ernesto 'Che' Guevara. DEA & Macaws Jack Simpson Jr. traveled to Bolivia to see the Llanos de Mojos - the unfenced grasslands of cattle and cattlemen and vaqueros, and, sometimes, drug lords.

Surely you must be joking, Mr Niemeyer Despite its wide deserted streets, its science fiction inspired architecture and its strange compartmentalised layout, Philip Blazdell couldn't help but bond with Brasilia - Brazil's capital. Non Stop Erotic Bingo Philip Blazdell visited Sao Paulo and was visually overcome by the sheer size of the locally named 'third greatest city in the world'. Rio de Janeiro After a year in Brazil and constant advice from his colleagues in the North East not to go to Rio, Philip Blazdell decided it was time. Axé Rio! (Party Rio!) Allen Rainey's head has cleared up enough for him to write about Rio's Carnaval - and to wonder when he's going back. Aboard the Floating Asylum Dreams of a relaxing cruise down the Amazon, from Manaus to Belem, turned out to be more of a nightmare. Tough Place; Tough Men Jack Simpson's journey to Brazil to look at property was made memorable more for the people he met than the countryside he saw. Brass Conflict at the Beach A brass band whipping up a hip-grinding samba? Well in Rio, yes. For as the local dictum goes, everything ends in samba. Suffer the Children If torture and murder be games, then the only people who play with Rio's street kids are the death squads, observes Craig Guillot. The Ghosts of Rio Rio's 'ghosts' aren't actually people who are dead. But they are invisible, even when they do die. Gringa in Sampa As Brazil's commercial capital, Sao Paulo can't compare to Rio for sights. However, there are plenty of alternative sightseeing opportunities if you know where to look. Manaus, a Jungle Within a Jungle Although surrounded by the Amazon jungle, Manaus is a bustling city, not some sleepy tropical village.
