Chilean Patagonia is a vast southern region extending from the fjords and forests of Aysén to the mountains, steppes, and channels of Magallanes. Rather than a single destination, it encompasses remote towns, national parks, glaciers, islands, and long stretches of sparsely settled landscape. The Carretera Austral provides one of its main overland routes, linking places such as Coyhaique, Puerto Río Tranquilo, and Villa O’Higgins through forests, rivers, mountains, and fjords.
King Island was discovered in 1798, and was a preferred breeding area for sea elephants and seals. Around the island are many shipwrecks, caused by the rough seas of the Bass Strait.
Isla del Sol, or Island of the Sun, is one of the best-known islands in Lake Titicaca, Bolivia, located in the lake’s southern section near Copacabana. The island is shaped by steep hills, stone terraces, small farming communities, and broad views across the high-altitude lake toward the Andes. At about 3,810 meters above sea level, Lake Titicaca creates a distinctive setting where cultivated slopes meet deep blue water and distant mountain peaks.
Delhi is a sprawling metropolis in North India that contains the country's capital, New Delhi. Life is abuzz and hectic here, with traffic going every which way. A huge population shuffles through Delhi's streets, alleys and food and spice-selling bazaars, and it's quite memorable to be a part of it all.
No airport, a single unnamed village, clear waters and white-sand beaches make Mayreau a quiet, rustic getaway. About 200 people live on this 1.5 mile (2.5km) long island just west of the Tobago Cays. Most visitors arrive via small cruise ships that dock at Saline Bay on the southwestern shore - making the island's other beaches best for seclusion. Salt Whistle Bay, at the northern end of the island, is protected from rough Atlantic breakers by a long narrow arm. This gorgeous bay has clear waters, beautiful white sands, calm swimming conditions and a protected anchorage for visiting yachts. The 20 minute walk from the village (near the middle of the western coast) to Salt Whistle Bay follows a path lined by cacti and scored by birdsong. There's a good view from the hilltop stone church at the northern side of the village.
Take a time machine to another century. One road, one pick up truck and more farm animals than citizens. Hunt for sea shells, sunbathe and surrender to the peace and quiet that make this a most serene island.
