501 Must-Take Journeys features a variety of facinating and inspirational journeys-some of which take only an hour or two to complete while others could last up to six months.There are trips through mountains and valleys,jungles and pine forest,rivers and seas,from the snowy wastes of the Arctic Cricle to the mind-numbing heat of the Sahara Desert.Included are journeys taken for the extraordinary beauty of the landscape,to reach ancient monuments,to meet people living in remote regions and to see wildlife of all descriptions. Happily much of the time it\\\’s not question of either the destination or the journey-you can have both!In many cases you have the opportunity to visit your chosen destination and have and exciting and interesting trip to reach it as well.The beautiful city of Luang Prabang in Laos,for example,is truly a joy to behold,but if you are able to arrive there after having gently travelled down the Mekong River from Huay Xai,then your whole experence of the visit will be much enchanced.
