<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Chichen - Itza was a large pre-Columbian city built by the Maya people of the Terminal Classic period. The archaeological site is located in Tinúm Municipality, Yucatán State, Mexico.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Chichen Itza was a major focal point in the Northern Maya Lowlands from the Late Classic (c. AD 600–900) through theTerminal Classic (c. AD 800–900) and into the early portion of the Postclassic period (c. AD 900–1200). The site exhibits a multitude of architectural styles, reminiscent of styles seen in central Mexico and of the Puuc and Chenes styles of the Northern Maya lowlands. The presence of central Mexican styles was once thought to have been representative of direct migration or even conquest from central Mexico, but most contemporary interpretations view the presence of these non-Maya styles more as the result of cultural diffusion</span>.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Uxmal - an ancient Maya city of the classical period in present-day Mexico. It is considered one of the most important archaeological sites of Maya culture, along with Palenque, Chichén, and Calakmul in Mexico, Caracol and Xunantunich in Belize, and Tikal in Guatemala. It is located in the Puuc region and is considered one of the Maya cities most representative of the region's dominant architectural style.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Museo del Mar - Vigo</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Has one of the most comprehensive permanent exhibitions in Vigo, which it combines with temporary exhibitions, always related to the world of the sea and fishing. This is the perfect place to learn about Vigo’s maritime history: fishing, seafood, aquaculture and conservation, from the primitive salting to the modern freezing methods, as well as technical advances regarding boats and marine biology.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Playa de Rodas</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rodas Beach was chosen the best beach in the world by the British newspaper The Guardian, and you’ll know why as soon as you step on it. This impressive beach, more than half a mile long and 200 feet wide, is ideal to spend a family day and right next to the dock, so you’ll hardly have to walk.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The beach joins the islands of Monteagudo and Faro. It has fine, white sand and crystal clear, emerald waters. Next to it you’ll find natural dune areas.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Puerta del Sol</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">El Sireno is Vigo’s monument par excellence. Located in the Porta do Sol, this sculpture by Galician artist Francisco Leiro is one of the symbols of modern Vigo; its style and the very high pedestal on which it stands make it an impressive work of art. The sculpture was installed in 1991 and represents an imaginary character, a hybrid of fish and man. Since then, it has become one of Vigo’s most representative monuments due to its striking modernity and how it reflects the city, which it monitors from its elevated location.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The town center features two rectangular squares either side of the 16th-century palace of the Marquesses de Ayerbe or palace of the Marquesses of Urriez (declared a historical monument in 1931), and in general it is the collection of domestic architecture and other architecturally distinguished buildings that make Ayerbe particularly worth visiting.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The hill directly behind the town is the location of a now renovated chapel at one end and a Moorish castle (in ruins) at the other.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #4a4a4a; line-height: 19px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Loarre is one of the most famous and well-preserved medieval fortresses in Spain. Most of its structures were built in 11-12th centuries. The fortress itself makes an impressive picture and also offers fascinating panoramas of the valley beneath. The fortresses is easily accessible from a vast parking above and via a visitors center (souvenir shop and a cafeteria included). Walking to the fortress and climbing its several levels takes some effort. Views from the top of two highest towers are great. The place is very popular and gets really crowded during weekends. The complex can be observed in about an hour, some people take walks along its extensive walls and beyond.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #4a4a4a; line-height: 19px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">High up on a pinacle of rock on the edge of the Pyrenees and overlooking a vast swathe of Aragon sits the fabulous Castle of Loarre. At one time this was the front line defence of the Christian world against the Muslim Moors. Used in films such as the Kingdom of Heaven it is one of the finest castles I have ever seen. Beautifully preserved with the fascinating St Peter's chapel it is off the beaten path but well worth the effort.</span></span></div>
