[edit] Where I have traveled
I am an American who has been to 18 foreign countries. These are some of the more memorable places that I have seen. I highly recommend these to everyone.
Innsbruck settles nicely along the mountains. |
Salzburg, as shown from the heights overlooking the city. I never got to go up this high there! |
Mont Royal is a park in the center of the city on a small mountain. It has the best views of the city! |
A complete view of Québec City from the heights. Québec at its very best! |
The Chateau Frontenac in Québec City is so beautiful and yet so expensive! |
|
The Saint Lawrence river is best along the central part of Québec and north of Québec City. |
Fort Chambly, located on the Richelieu river, is a fort which is well preserved and provides a great place to picnic and things. |
Niagara Falls, Ontario is a thriving city which borders a great natural wonder. |

The Hagia Sophia in Istanbul is the most amazing form of Byzantine architecture on a massive scale. |
Suleymaniye Mosque is huge and yet beautiful, complete with blue tile from Iznik (Nicaea). |
Topkapi Palace has so many different distinct features, including a weapons museum. Read about its history BEFORE you go. |
Chora Church in Istanbul (today called the Kariye Museum). It contains some of the most beautiful frescoes I have ever seen. |
Pamukkale (Hierapolis) is a wonderful example of natural beauty. |
Marmaris is perhaps the most perfect beach in all of Turkey. |
Uludağ is a great skiing area, and the hotels are first rate. |
