I will never forget, nearly 40 years ago, laying eyes for the first time on my first ancient archaeological site. About an hour’s drive north of Mexico City, this UNESCO World Heritage complex of temples absolutely electrified my imagination and became a driving force in my fascination with not just archaeology but travel and world cultures in general. Teotihuacán has that kind of impact.
Even after decades of study, archaeologists still aren’t quite sure who (Toltecs? Otomi? M

If you can’t decide between these two options, take a look at these things you should consider before travelling anywhere.

So you’re in the capital of merry olde England for the winter holidays, enjoying the festive lights and good cheer, and suddenly you realize that your British friends are off on the day after Christmas for something called Boxing Day. Setting aside any jealousy over a work-free day many of us don’t share, you wonder what this “boxing” thing could possibly be. Are there matches scheduled around London? Where are the rings, and how do you get tickets?
Well, Boxing Day has not

One of the things I most love about Portugal‘s capital this time of year is its festive lighting – those enormous decorations for Nadal (Christmas) enlivening the streets – along of course with its spectacular public Christmas trees. I recall wandering the historic Baixa (Lower Town), passing through the monumental Rua Augusta Arch, and emerging onto the enormous and usually empty Praça do Comercio to be dazzled by a towering evergreen packed full of holiday ch

A mere one percent of Chinese profess Christianity, but as in Japan and indeed various other countries of non-Christian Asia, the festive trappings of Yuletide have been widely embraced in China, though for the time being mostly still in Shanghai, Beijing, Xi’an, Guangdong, of course Hong Kong and Macau, with their longtime tenures under Great Britain and Portugal, as well as other large cities. This time of year is the time of Sheng Dan Jie.

At the turn of the 20th century, William Gillette was a renowned American actor and playwright. In 1914 he purchased a scenic 184-acre plot of land that overlooked the majestic Connecticut River in East Haddam, Connecticut.
On a ridge at the site, Gillette constructed a magnificent hand-tooled stone castle where he hoped to enjoy his retirement in the solitude of his estate. Through the years, the strange-looking edifice on the high bluff became known as Gillette's Castle. Today the castle is a

In a recent post, I explained that it’s possible to build links inside the mind that will provide automatic calming when flying. To do that, you need to find the memory of a moment linked to a key individual in your life – family member, friend, whoever it might be – when you sensed that person was safe not just physically, but emotionally. You will need to recall a moment when he or she was not critical, was not competitive, and was not being judgmental in any way. When you recall
Italy's business and fashion capital is often overlooked in favor of flashier Italian cities like Florence, Venice and Rome - however, it shouldn't be! Thanks to the clever combination of a solid United States buck and a weaker-than-usual euro, now is a good time especially for Americans to visit Italy - and Milan is a stunning, dynamic city with its own covert secrets. TPG Contributor Lori Zaino discovers what's brand-new and promising in Milan and offers her best hotel and travel pointers. (
The concept of taking a road trip sounds carefree and largely based on serendipity. But after rearranging your schedule and marking time on your calendar, the realization sets in that you need a planned itinerary and well equipped vehicle to get you to the most scenic routes and can't-miss sights.
It helps to have comfort and navigational assistance like you get in Chevy's 2019 Equinox. I recently tried it out on a coastal road trip to Portland, Maine and found that sitting in the driver's seat p
Costa Rica has cannily and famously leveraged its ecotourism riches into bank-account riches over the past several decades, but it wouldn’t have become Central America’s most successful destination without its plentiful playas – most of which line its 1,016 kilometres (630 miles) of Pacific coastline in the provinces of Guanacaste and Puntarenas. Following are the main top choices, from castaway stretches to strands buzzing with families or surfers, from north to south.

One of the most beautiful cities in the world, Rotorua on New Zealand's North Island is surrounded by as many as 16 lakes. What it is renowned for, however, are the mud pools, geysers and the smoke snaking out of its ground. The city is based on top of an active volcanic zone and is enveloped in a weak sulphur smell. Nicknamed the Sulphur City, Rotorua is a heaven for vacationer – possessing just about every type of activity a tourist could ask for. Yet for the people who wish to pull this off
Some leasing companies may track their vehicles, but they must ensure that renters are properly informed before accepting the lease. Road haulers, of course, want to protect their car from theft and damage, and GPS detectors can help protect their cars.
It should be noted that some executive car-rental companies can track the car via the Global Positioning System (GPS), but most car rental companies do not have GPS installed on their vehicles. This is a common misconception, but if you think abou
Being home to the Himalayan Mountains, a great number of scenic destinations in India experience snowfall. In addition to making the spot look like a winter wonderland, these snow-covered slopes also offer many exciting adventure activities.

Large parts of north and northeast India are covered in snow during the winter months. Most of these destinations are popula

If there’s one thing that abounds on a commercial jetliner, it’s wheels; the large airliners of Iberia and other carriers can have up to 12 of them in the main landing gear.
