Sure, many of people mainly visit Spain to visit the big cites of Barcelona and Madrid, but I can personally assure you that there is so much more to explore. Running bulls, flamenco dancers, museums, Ibiza, Sagrada Familia, and Alhambra. The list goes on and on about the different places that an individual can experience whilst out there exploring the world. Let’s not forget the mouth-watering food too, one of which is by far the most popular dish that comes from Spain, and many fan-favorites, paella (a rice dish prepared with seafood). To further drive you to Spain, I’d like to address this. According to an article, “Why Take the Time to Visit the Alhambra in Spain?” it boldly states, “The ancient buildings, aqueducts, and other leftovers from hundreds of years ago offer amazing opportunities for tourists who take the time to visit them.” This is self-explanatory, if you would only take the time to really push and learn about the background of Spain, you will have the most amazing experience
The Big House, the largest prehistoric native American structure in North America, is a four-story building constructed by ancient Sonoran Desert people, the Hohokam. The Hohokam were native American tribes that vanished in the 1400’s leaving behind archaeological evidence of a sophisticated culture revealing advanced canal systems, and the “Casa Grande,” a big house in the Sonoran Desert valley. Missionary, explorer and mapmaker Eusibio Francisco Kino, was the first European to discover the site in 1694 and named it “Casa Grande”. After the railroad came through in 1879, travelers would scratch their names into the walls, some took artifacts, even pieces of the wall were taken as souvenirs. In 1889, Congress voted to take action to protect the site from vandalism and looting. It has been protected since 1892 by the General Land Office and then it was transferred to the National Park Service in 1918. This

As it was in the beginning, so it has remained for thousands of years; the natural beauty of Cabo San Lucas is still the magnetic pull that intrigues and invites many to experience what this majestic, modern, sophisticated resort town has to offer. Located at the southern end of the 1,000-mile Baja California Peninsula in the Mexican state of Baja California Sur, Cabo San Lucas is said to have been discovered by Francisco de Ulloa in 1537.

La Mer was composed during a tumultuous period in Debussy’s life. Not only were his personal affairs public knowledge, but his bohemian lifestyle kept Debussy on the fringes of a modern day, “starving artist.” A year prior to its commencement, Pelleas and Melisande (1902 pr.) had garnered Debussy’s first real success; placing the composer in the hall of French notoriety. The success of Pelleas set up his standing in the artistic community and became the precursor to Debussy’s attribution to genius and ranked La Mer as “the best symphony ever written by a Frenchmen.” Work on La Mer commenced in 1903, where Debussy spent the better part of two years completing (1905). The three-movement work makes use of Debussy’s asymmetrical movement construction

Till date around 3,500 ciliates species have been described globally. Ciliates need extra attention as their extant species number is estimated to be around 30,000, making it one of the most diverse groups. They range in size from 10 µm - 4 mm in length and inhabit wide variety of ecological niches; free living forms to parasitic and symbiotic forms. Free living forms are found in both aquatic and terrestrial habitats. Aquatic ciliates are reported from oceans, rivers, lakes, glaciers, ponds and even from hot springs suggesting their ability to survive in diversified environments.
