As I have discuss in earlier articles, green canyon is one of seven wonders in the world, included as the most exotic places on Earth. Today I’d like to be more specific onto it. A gap that is quite very high and steep cliffs, carved by the Colorado River, in northern Arizona. Grand Canyon is 3.5 hours (193 kilometers) from the famous gambling city of Las Vegas to Canyon County.

The process of forming a steep cliff in Grand Canyon through various periods of climate change, arising sinking continents, forming mountains, etc. Indirectly this allows us to examine what is happening on earth for 1.7 billion years ago, judging from the layers of the cliffs. So Green canyon does give us big contribution for history as well.

Aloha, that word is quite familiar in your ear when you got yourself in small island of paradise, Hawaii. Thanks to publication and advertising from television and newspaper, not to mention many great movies taking place in here, Hawaii have became one of the most exotic places on earth.

Honolulu, might be the busiest departure during summer seasons, most of the tourists are coming from Japan, from teenager into older (you could see that they dominating the tourists other than other countries). While from domestic, North American also became one of the major tourist contribution, most of them are elder or veteran who wants to nostalgia their times when serving as soldier during world war II.

Ecuador in South America is home to a bewildering array of wildlife. Fifteen percent of the world’s bird species are endemic to Ecuador. There are also 138 species of amphibian and 106 species of reptile.

From Lions to spider monkeys to endangered species like the Giant Armadillo, the wildlife in Ecuador is in fact so diverse that the World Conservation Monitoring Center lists it as one of seventeen Megadiverse countries in the world where the majority of Earth’s wildlife is to be found.

As a South America volunteer on an Ecuador wildlife protection program you have the opportunity to get up close and personal with this extreme biodiversity.

Much like Kashmir or Iran, the Golan Heights have the dubious honor of appearing more often on newspapers’ front pages than in their travel sections. Since Israel captured the Golan during the Six Day War in 1967, this region, which stretches from the Sea of Galilee in the south to Mount Hermon in the north, has been one of the world’s most contested pieces of political real estate.

It’s also one of the Earth’s hidden gems. The Golan’s 1,200 square kilometers harbor a treasure trove of lush farmland and sky-scraping volcanic terrain, the fate of which forms the crux of one of the world’s most notorious geopolitical disputes.
