El paisaje es de quién sabe disfrutarlo. 12 imágenes difíciles de olvidar 12 imágenes difíciles de olvidar Vía Láctea sobre la cordillera del Himalaya Anton Jankovoy Las montañas cubren el 53% de Asia, un 58% de América, el 25% de Europa, el 17% de Australia y un 3% de África.

Bali Hotels - Discount Rates for all Hotels in Bali-Indonesia Bali is a world away from the rest of Indonesia, and it's a longstanding favorite with independent travelers. Itinerant surfers started coming as early as the 1930s, but it wasn't until the 1960s that surfing holidays in Bali became fashionable. Today, the island legacy continues, and Bali sees as many bohemian surfers as it does affluent resort tourists. With miles of luxurious coastline and a range of accommodation in Bali, this small island has room enough for everyone. Indonesia may have the world's largest Muslim population, but Bali fosters its own distinct culture. Hinduism has flourished here for nearly 2,000 years. Kuta is the busiest resort district in Bali, with a few of the top luxury hotels in Bali. Legian is another must-see. Further south is Denpasar's Ngurah Rai Airport, one of Indonesia's busiest travel hubs.

The hotel and restaurants within have been carved out of the limestone rocks along the shores and according to the hotel website, "For well over 250 years the cavern has been at the heart of the region’s festivities and still today remains a unique and romantic location for your celebrations and events." Within the hotel and tucked into the Italian cliffs is The Summer Cave restaurant, which provides an exclusive dining experience for those who aren't incredibly afraid of heights.

Dim lighting, hardwood floors, and a simple decor add to the elegant ambiance of this unique and cave-like experience. Grotta Palasezze Hotel via [Inhabitat]

Glass Beach – The Dump You’ll Want to Visit Before you say anything about the content of this article, I hate people who litter. I’ll judge you if I think you’re too lazy to recycle. I hate pollution and the death of our fragile ecosystems and all the rest. But- with that disclaimer out of the way- Glass Beach in Fort Bragg, California is the incredible result of human wastefulness and the resilience of nature. It’s like a little Inuksuk… I’ve been trolling around for lesser known landscapes to road trip to and explore, and stumbled across this chunk of multicoloured west coast paradise. These days, Glass Beach is a protected part of MacKerricher State Park, but in 1949, it was the site of an unrestricted dump. Eventually, California realized that dumping automobiles, appliances, toxic substances and razor sharp shards of glass into the water was probably a bad idea, and looked elsewhere for a dumping site. The beaches under the cliffs lay polluted, cluttered and ruined, and were basically treated as a forgotten ‘mistake.’

How to do Ibiza on a budget | Travel Ibiza Town Arriving at the airport, head straight for the bus stop outside – taxis are pricey and you can queue for an hour in peak season. Bus No 10 makes the 10km route every 15 minutes in summer (ibizabus.com for winter schedules) and drops you right in the port (don't get off at the bus station, as it's quite far from the centre). Ibiza Town offers plenty of budget accommodation, but there are a few absolute standouts. Hostal Parque (+34 971 301358, hostalparque.com, doubles from €65) occupies a prime position in a leafy square right below the Old Town walls. Rooms are modern, with air conditioning and Wi-Fi and three rooftop aticos have private decked terraces. Across the square is the quirky Casa Huéspedes Vara de Rey (+34 971 301376, hibiza.com, doubles from €53), a sprawling guesthouse with a boho vibe. Start with a walk up into topsy-turvy Dalt Vila (literally "high town") – the Unesco world heritage site is a maze of cobbles and whitewashed walls. Ibiza Town's Dalt Vila.
