Denpasar is the capital of Bali and the island's largest urban community, often lending a drab, overcast ambiance to an otherwise delightful and interesting trip. Tour the Kumbasari Market for exotic Asian fruits while transvestites dance for handouts from local merchants. Visit the temples of Pura Jagatnata and the Museum Bali, for a taste of Balinese art from prehistoric to modern times. Check with the tourist center for a list of upcoming festivals on the island. And don't forget the Denpasar
The capital of Saint Maarten, the Dutch side of this two nation island, Philipsburg is located on the isthmus between Groot Baai (Great Bay) and the Salt Pond. Founded in 1733 as a free port, the city is now the home to outstanding shopping, casinos, and a variety of hotels and resorts, including nearby Mullet Bay Resort and Golf Club.
Gosier, the largest tourist area, has the works - casino, resort hotels, scalloped sandy coves and an original village center which has managed to retain its local character.
Boulder, a beautiful 2,500 foot high oasis of green lawns and clean trees-shaded streets where the sun shines over 320 days a year, overlooks the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. Recognized as truly a family oriented and community minded city, one only has to visit for a short time to confirm this reputation.
St. Moritz, located in Switzerland’s Engadin Valley, has been attracting visitors for over 150 years, long before the term "alpine resort" became common. It was here in 1864 that winter tourism was born, when a hotelier made a wager with British guests that they would enjoy the snow just as much as the summer sun. They returned, and the rest is history. The town has since hosted the Winter Olympics twice (in 1928 and 1948) and remains a favorite for skiing, snowboarding, and ice sports.
