Recently visited sites

Late February, I travelled around Ghana for 8 days. I was able to see and do quite a lot of things in this short period. Ghana does not have a lot of major sights, but it is a friendly place with its own distinct living culture. Both WHS (Ashanti Buildings near Kumasi and the Forts & Castles along the coast) are well worth a visit. This is also true for Kakum National Park with its Canopy Walkway, a tentative WHS.

Rice Terraces of the Philippine Cordilleras
'Visited Batad and Bangaan rice terraces last February 2010. Such an amazing experience! Stayed in Batad Homestay c/o Mang Ramon who can offer the "rice terrace" experience - like preparing rice, bonfire activity, rice wine ceremony at night, staying in one of the native huts.'
 Talamanca Range-La Amistad Reserves
'In February, I was in Panama City for a meeting and decided to make it to Amistad.'
 
Struve Geodetic Arc
'At some stage this interest in World Heritage Sites turned from an awareness of major tourist sites into a full blown obsession.'
 Vilnius
'A big thumbs up from me for Vilnius. Whilst the main sights are nice they are not astounding however the city has a great atmosphere and wandering aimlessly around the old town’s cobbled streets was an exceptionally rewarding way to spend a weekend.'
 
Kernavë Archeological Site
'I spent a pretty bleak morning at Kernave in February 2010. The site itself was fairly interesting and larger than I thought it would be.'
 Lima
'There are alot of mixed feelings about Lima. I take it for what its worth. I had a great time here.'
