    BUENOS AIRES - Argentina

    The capital city of Argentina is Buenos Aires and is at the centre of the country in all ways except its geographical location. On the Rio del Plata, is in the East of the country; it is actually the city that is closest to the Old Continent, and probably the most European city in South America. Buenos Aires is the most European city of Latin America, and still has its own culture, favour and atmosphere. Some areas will remind you of London, some of Paris, others of Rome. This is probably due to the fact that all of the population consists of immigrants from Europe.

    Buenos Aires is quite a stylish city with beautiful parks, gardens and colonial architecture. At the same time it the best hotels of the country, nightlife and restaurants

    A first-time visitor to Buenos Aires should begin with an escorted city tour making sure it includes the main neighbourhoods and public buildings several museums and its extraordinary cemetery.

    CAPE TOWN – South Africa

    Cape Town has the most beautiful of settings, on the coast with the flat top Table Mountain behind the city, a World Heritage Site. Established as a European settlement in the 17th century, Cape Town has a rich history. The city is a sparkling mixture of old and new, high culture and popular entertainment, civilization and wilderness. A range of jagged mountains thrusting into the splendid desolation of the southern Atlantic, the Cape Peninsula is one of the world’s most beautiful places.

    NEW YORK - United States

    Whether your vacation in New York City includes tourist activities or not, every visitor must see The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. These two locations are important pieces of American History and immigration. Also while in the city, stop and see the Empire State Building, one of New York’s tallest buildings. You can shop down the street from there at Bloomingdale’s, a world-famous department store, or take a visit to the United Nations building, the site of world-wide facilitating of positive relations politically, socially, and for humanity.

    While you are in New York, you should take a visit to the upstate areas. To get from New York City upstate you just need to take I87 aka. the Thruway North. As you travel north you will reach the capital of New York around exits 23 and 24. To take a look at the New York capital, state buildings, state university, and state museum you just need to get off of exit 23. This picture is just one of the many common areas where you can enjoy your day at the University at Albany. Albany is not only the capital of the state, but a wealthy resource of fun activities for you to enjoy while you are in New York.

    RIO DE JANEIRO - Brazil

    Rio de Janeiro is one of the most spectacular locations. A natural harbour surrounded by high green mountains and good beaches nearby. The best way to appreciate the setting is by going up Sugar Loaf Mountain. You get a spectacular 360-degree view of Rio and Guanabara Bay. Continue up to Corcovado Mountain to get an even higher perspective. This is where the famous statue of Christ the Redeemer is to be found. You can either drive or take a funicular up to the statue—the best view is on the right-hand side. From up here you can see that Rio is divided by a mountain range into two areas: the Zona Norte (North Zone) and the Zona Sul (South zone). The Zona Sul holds most of the city’s sights.

    By the way, one of Rio’s most precious resources is often overlooked. Its people. Brazil is a melting pot of races, colors and creeds. No one race, no one color and no one religion dominates in Brazil. There is room for all, and that includes the many visitors who come to Brazil each year from every corner of the planet. Rio deserves about two days to explore and about four nights. Cariocas are fun loving animals. If it is getting too hot you can escape to Petropolis.
