Okaukuejo is a settlement and rest camp in the southern part of Etosha National Park, serving as an important administrative and tourism center for the protected area. It lies near the park’s southern entrance and is surrounded by the open plains, salt pans, and dry savanna that define central Etosha. The area is particularly known for its permanent waterhole, where wildlife gathers when water is scarce.
The Canyon valleys of the Waimea River and its tributary were once heavily populated, and the town was an early center of native government. It was here that Captain James Cook, English Navigator-Explorer, made his first landing in the Hawaiian Islands on January 20, 1778. Waimea developed as a provisioning port for whalers and sandalwood traders. A ruined Russian fort, built (1815) in a futile attempt to seize the isle, occupies a coastal bluff aboe the Waimea River.

Texas is a state where size meets story from high plains to coastal shores, every region brings something distinct to the table.

A visit to Como is like looking through a manual on the history of architecture. Its ancient walls, the Duomo with its rich Gothic-Renaissance façade, the Broletto, the Castel Baradello, the Romanesque basilicas of Sant'Abbondio and S. Fedele, the myriad of monuments created by the Comacini Masters, and the modern architectural lines, all represent foundations of the urban and tourist fabric, interwoven with unforgettable splendor.
High in the Atlas Mountains, the village of Aroumd sits on a rocky slope above the Ait Mizane Valley. Reached by a walk or mule path from nearby Imlil, the journey itself sets the tone as one that's quiet, scenic, and far removed from city life. At nearly 1,900 meters above sea level, the air feels crisp, and the views stretch across terraced hills and distant peaks. The absence of large roads keeps the village peaceful, allowing visitors to experience daily life at a slower pace.
