Thanks to WangXiaoxuan From China sent 20/09/2022

    Xidi is another charming ancient village of Yixian County of Anhui Province, which is only 20 kilometers apart from its cousin Hongcun Ancient village and 40 kilometers away from Yellow Mountain (Mt. Huangshan). On November 30th of 2000 when the UNESCO (United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization) held its meeting in Australia, both Xidi Ancient Village and Hongcun Ancient Village were approved to be put on the List of World Cultural Heritage.

JERICOACOARA

 Many Thanks to my friend Carolina 

    The village of Jericoacoara is a Brazilian jewel on the Pacific coast. A place for vacation and contemplation as well as sports and nautical activities, such as kite surfing, it is the perfect mix (Brazilian specialty!) of tradition and modernity. A stopover as much as a destination to be checked off on your travel diary in terra nordeste!
