This book is an invaluable resource, and is a must-have if you have an interest in this part of history or are traveling to the area. In this book you will get detailed accounts of the buildings and landmarks where history was written.
Having never been there, and hoping to travel soon, this book outlines most of the most interesting and significant destinations worth visiting. With precise coordinates and estimated travel times, this work will help you plan and budget your time to ensure you schedule accordingly. The book suggests the most efficient tours, gives tips on when to visit, what to look out for, even when to get in line for certain excursions and where to stand or sit to get the best views.
Each destination has along with its coordinates pictures and background stories to help put in perspective what you are looking at and the significance behind it. Whether you are a well-versed historian or a novice, you will find something new.
