Argentinian Mesopotamia

Articles
In December 2022 we travel through the Northeast of Argentina, exploring not only the national parks El Palmar and Esteros del Ibera – with lots of wildlife, especially birds -, but also the hypermodern Yacyreta hydroelectric complex and the 18th Century Jesuit ruins of San Ignacio Mini.

Ashura: rouwen om de Imam in Iran

Articles
Met ferme stappen komen de in het zwart geklede mannen op me af. Alle drie hebben ze in iedere hand een ketting, of eigenlijk een bos kettingen, aan een houten handvat. Van die dingen waar je lekker mee kunt zwiepen. “Oh, oh”, denk ik, “there comes trouble”. Ik kijk om me heen, wat te doen? [...]

Longsheng

Articles
A rather Spartan hotel, wooden minority villages and spectacular rice terraces in the area around Longsheng. After our last comfortable night in Guilin, and a decent meal in the local top restaurant, we were ready for the rest of our trip, no doubt a lot rougher, through the remote territory to Guiyang. Next day we [...]

Guilin

Articles, Locations
One of China’s premier tourist spots, on account of the beautiful karst landscape along the Li River.

04. Lijiang and surroundings

Articles
Lijang, too, is entirely focused on tourists, and so are many of the surrounding villages, where Chinese minorities form the majority.
