A very clean and European city south of Sao Paulo, it was the center for Polish, German, Italian and Russian immigration in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Located about twenty-five miles southwest of Rapid City, South Dakota, lies Mount Rushmore. Following Highway 244 from the west leads to the orientation center. There exhibits tell how sculptor Gutzon Borglum carved away twice the rock needed to construct Egypt's Great Sphinx (which isn't even as tall as Washington's nose).
Antipaxos is a small Ionian island southeast of Paxos, separated from its larger neighbor by a short boat journey from Gaios. Covering roughly 4.5 square kilometers, it has a gently rolling landscape of vineyards, olive groves, pine trees, and low Mediterranean vegetation. The island has no large settlement and is known mainly for its beaches, particularly Voutoumi and Vrika, where white sand or pale pebbles meet clear blue-green water.
The Faroe Islands, a hidden gem in the North Atlantic, offers visitors a breathtaking blend of dramatic cliffs, quaint villages, and untouched landscapes. This autonomous territory of Denmark, located between Iceland and Norway, is a dream for nature lovers and adventurers alike. The islands boast rugged coastlines, with towering cliffs like those at Vestmanna, where you can take boat tours to witness seabirds nesting on the rock faces.
