Its landscape is particularly varied for its size, ranging from the agricultural fields around Miðvágur and Sandavágur to the rugged western coast near Bøur and Gásadalur.
Liepāja is a coastal city in western Latvia, positioned between the Baltic Sea and Lake Liepāja. Its identity has long been shaped by the sea, port activity, industry, and music, while the city center contains a notable collection of wooden and Art Nouveau buildings. A broad sandy beach stretches along the coast, separated from the urban area by the large Seaside Park.
The capital of eastern Morocco, Oujda stands on the border with Algeria. Its privileged geographic position makes it a center for Maghreb tourism and a meeting point of routes between Morocco and other North African countries. Many streams run from the northern slopes to irrigate the well-kept gardens and orchards. Crossing these imposing mountains affords a magnificent panoramic view of Oujda.

Bordeaux is ready for its close-up! After years of improvements, modern public transportation is in place and the city is gleaming after a wave of restorations. When visiting this lovely destination, be sure to walk across the Garonne River-spanning Stone Bridge (17 arches in all!) and see Place des Quinconces, France's grandest public square. Gothic Cathédrale Saint-André, and famous art museums like Musée des Beaux-Arts de Bordeaux are must-sees as well. The city is the perfect launch point, too, for going tasting in this lovely wine-producing region.
