The Mayan ruins of Xlapak. Many people will tell you to skip Xlapak all together. I must tell you now. Do not miss this ruin site, the reason is this. Xlapak is endangered of falling to ruin, no pun intended. The Mexican government is doing everything it can to save this site. If they fail in the en...

If you should drop down Tripoli for just a day this is the place to go. Not that you will be that likely to actually just drop by with the current visa situation - but if you are in oil or something and will be in Tripoli on business and got just a day to spare go to Leptis Magna. The ancient Roma...

The Maya ruins in Uxmal is the most wonderful place to explore the Maya ruins in mexico. The tourism industry will want to guide you to the ruins of Chichen Itza, but dont make Chichen Itza your first destination. Chichen Itza was just named one of the eight wonders of the world. If you talk to any ...

The Rock of Cashel rests on one of the very few hills in this part of Ireland. Only about two hundred feet high, this small hill became a gathering spot for early kings. Later a church and finally a cathedral were built on this high ground in the 13th century.
Today, except for the 90 foot tall...

Coba was really amazing! The site is huge, for starters (around 26 sq. miles). It´s overgrown with jungle, so although there are wide, clear paths to walk, there´s a lot of shade and plenty of wildlife. I saw many lizards, a few butterflies, lots of caterpillars and one really enormous toad. (Seri...

The ruins of Tintagel castle, perched dramatically on the sea-cliffs along the west coast of Cornwall, is a truly amazing place. Enormous sea-caves formed by the pounding ocean undercut the cliffline, and the sites importance as a fortress and an ancient international trading site is still being une...

The majority of the ancient ruins around Siem Reap (commonly known as Angkor Wat, although that name actually refers to just one specific temple - the largest one) are impressive mostly because of their massive size and the sheer volume of temples within the complex. The temple of Banteay Srei has ...

Arriving from dreary Prishtina (the capital of Kosovo), Prizren seemed like a godsend. While the sights pale in comparison to those of most western European cities, the recent history and the friendliness of the people made my stay in Prizren one of the highlights of my life. Located an 1.5 to 2 hrs...

The Kabah Ruins is 23 miles from Uxmal. When I entered the site it was incredible. The best thing about it was that i was the only person on the premises, except for the Mayan gentleman selling his wood carvings. The site is not as big as Uxmal of course, but it has its own charm like all the ruin s...
