Overview
Take a trip to Uyuni on your Bolivia Vacation
Uyuni is a small town in the southwest corner of Bolivia lying at an altitude of 3700 metres/12,150 feet on the Andean Altiplano. It attracts visitors on a Bolivia vacation due to its being on the edge of the world’s largest salt flats formed by prehistoric lakes. Other attractions are a “Train Cemetery” where many locomotives were abandoned when the local mining industry faded out and the local wildlife which includes major breeding grounds for flamingos. The town also has a lively street market.

The Festes Majors are summer festivals held in the villages of Andorra. Each festival is unique to the village, with its own distinct style.
The Pyrenean Mountain scenery and tax-free shopping are two of my favourite things about travelling to Andorra.
I love learning about Nicaragua's culture and experiencing its Spanish influence in some cities. I was only there for five days, but I'll never forget how delicious the food was and how welcoming and extremely polite the people were.
Nicaragua is well known for its dramatic volcanic landscapes, lakes, rainforests, and colonial cities. I love how friendly the people are and how delicious the food is! There is always something fun to do in Nicaragua!
Festival de Los Farolitos is an annual nighttime festival held every September in the town of Ataco, where the streets, houses, and plazas are illuminated with thousands of handmade lanterns (farolitos). Families craft them using colored paper, wood, calabash gourds, or jars, each with a candle inside. Although it's tied to the eve of the Virgin Mary’s birthday, it has evolved into a cultural celebration of community, light, creativity, and town pride.
