17_PCExotic_FOB.indd 18

4/20/17 4:00 PM

MOMENTS THAT MATTER SERVICE

On your Princess ship, gracious and attentive crew members are there to serve you and make your entire vacation memorable.

YOU FIRST NOTICED IT on the lapel of the officer who welcomed you aboard as you crossed thegangway: a blue-and-gold pin that read “Cruise.” Then you saw it again worn by the concierge, and your stateroom steward, and...What are these pins, and what does CRUISE stand for? CRUISE began as a program to help keep the guest experience top-of-mind for all Princess staff and crew, and that is still one of its important goals. But CRUISE is also how we recognize and reward employees for great performance. CRUISE is how we educate our employees for career and personal growth. CRUISE is how we support our employees’ health and welfare so they can perform their jobs with excellence every day. CRUISE is the vehicle through which Princess delivers our core values — we serve, we respect our team, we innovate,

we are consistent, we are accountable and we do it right. We recognize crewmembers who exceed the expectations of our guests with the Moments that Matter award. What does CRUISE mean to you? It’s the recognition that small gestures often make a big difference. You’ll see it in the bartender who remembers your favorite drink or the stateroom steward who always wears a smile. It means everyone on board is working together to make your vacation a relaxed rejuvenating retreat at sea. It means all of us know that your vacation memories are infinitely precious — and we want you to remember not only our spectacular ships sailing to fantastic destinations, but also how valued you felt while you were on board.

DINING

FRESHLY PREPARED

delicious dilemma Your ship is a floating destination of culinary delights, with options to match every taste and mood. ONE OF THE MOST ENTICING THINGS about your spectacular Princess® ship is the wide variety of tempting onboard options to delight your palate. From specialty restaurants and gracious dining rooms, a warm, freshly cooked meal is never far away. You can have a burger grilled to order out on deck, or grab a slice of handmade pizza to eat by the pool. Or maybe all you need is some soft-serve ice cream to fend off the heat. From breakfast to dinner to late-night snacks, Princess raises the bar on dining at sea.

WE UNDERSTAND

how important dining is to the vacation experience, which is why we put such an emphasis on the quality and range of our dining options. We’ve designed the menus for our Traditional and Anytime Dining SM rooms to truly make sure the food is the star. From our signature pastas to our lighter selections, you’ll savor freshly prepared cuisine, utilizing ingredients with regional influences.

FOR VARIETY, you can choose a specialty restaurant like SHARE by award-winning chef Curtis Stone; Sabatini’s Italian Trattoria,SM with fresh authentic pasta made daily; the elegant Crown Grill SM or Sterling Steakhouse SM for an aged prime steak; or the Bayou Café & Steakhouse for a more Southern ambience. Ask about the Chef’s Table, yet another unique offering — you’ll be invited into the galley for champagne and hors d’oeuvres, and you'll later enjoy an exclusive multi-course dinner with a menu created by the Executive Chef on board. Or if you happen to have a balcony stateroom, you can stay in one evening and we’ll bring the experience to you — with Ultimate Balcony Dining.

WE INVITE YOU to indulge in all this and more during your cruise.

Note: Please reference your Princess Patter or log on to Princess@Sea for information about the restaurants and dining venues onboard.

do it all or nothing at all FREE TIME — something each of us has precious little of

these days. Of course, that’s why you take a vacation. And on your Princess ship, you’ll find you have plenty of time to enjoy the fabulous options your ship offers.

WHAT’S YOUR TYPE? Are you a fitness fanatic? Do you like arts & crafts? Do you wish you simply had more hours in the day after work and family commitments to just sit down and read a book? On a Princess voyage, we offer opportunities for every interest to be engaged, which is one of the reasons people often unexpectedly find that it is their time on the ship they remember most fondly. So now that you’re here, we encourage you to follow your mood to whatever activities and entertainment most interest you. You’ll find a full schedule of what’s offered each day in your Princess Patter or Princess@Sea.* This is your time to do as much as or as little as you like. *Princess@Sea available on select ships.

Cambodia Built in 1964 on the Gulf of Thailand, Sihanoukville is a little-known resort that is much adored for its pristine beaches, breathtaking scuba diving and superb seafood cuisine. It leads to Angkor Wat, one of Southeast Asia’s most important archaeological sites. Angkor Archaeological Park displays remains of the Khmer Empire, which lasted from the ninth to the 15th centuries. China Immense and complex, China reaches out to visitors with reverence for its ancient traditions yet with an increasingly modern sensibility. Beijing is the heart of it all; the sprawling city is home to 11 million people and as been the center of Chinese culture and government for millennia. Here you will find treasured sites: the Forbidden City, an immense 250-acre complex of palaces, pavilions and courtyards; the Great Wall, dating to 453 B.C.; Tiananmen Square; the Summer Palace; and many more historical touchstones. Beijing is reached via Tianjin, China’s largest man-made port. Hong Kong has been a semi-autonomous region of China since 1997, with a transfer that ended 156 years of British colonial rule. The city has lost none of its exotic charm, even as modern skyscrapers and luxury hotels populate the island city. Narrow streets are crammed with noodle vendors, fortunetellers and bonesetters, along with what seems to be an endless array of shops offering everything from hand-tailored suits and ancient porcelain to the latest consumer electronics. See it all from the 1,805-foot Victoria Peak, from the ground at Stanley Market or from afar on Lantau Island. With a population topping 20 million, a past steeped in colonialism and a future embodied in its spectacular skyline, Shanghai is a true showcase of East meets West. It has been a cradle of both Chinese communism and Western capitalism — elegant riverfront mansions and mercantile houses can still be viewed along the Bund — with ancient temples to nurture the soul. The magnificent Yu Gardens and Shanghai Museum are among the attractions not to be missed.

A place of wonder and exhilarating extremes, Asia offers thousands of years of history, ancient religious shrines and temples, opulent palaces, war memorials, beaches and dense forests surrounded by modern metropolises of glittering skyscrapers. This part of the world has an energy and excitement equally matched by the genuine warmth and welcoming smiles of its people. Asia is exotic, but its heart will make you feel at home.

Indonesia Besides breathtaking beaches and lush forests, visitors to Bali can see elaborate stone carvings dating to the eighth century at the Goa Gajah (“Elephant Caves”) or visit Bedugul Botanical Garden and its more than 300 orchid varieties. Both Bali and its neighbor, Lombok Island, are renowned for their traditional craft villages. Artisans produce an exquisite brocaded cloth called songket, as well as elegant woodcarvings and superb pottery made from local hillside clays. Indonesia’s capital is the bustling city of Jakarta, home to 9 million people. The Bay of Jakarta offers numerous spots popular for swimming and snorkeling, while nearby volcanoes Mount Gede and Mount Pangrango inspire awe and wonder. The original “fire-breathing dragons” — as Dutch sailors described them when they first encountered them a century ago — come from Komodo Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Just offshore, discover 1,000 species of fish, 260 species of reef-building coral, manta rays, sharks, dolphins, whales and sea turtles. Lush landscapes and beautiful beaches lure the visitor to Probolinggo, on the northern shore of East Java, and its centuries-old traditions will tempt you to stay. From Mount Bromo’s towering presence (7,641 feet) to cultural insights at museums, mosques and local batik workshops, Probolinggo is endlessly fascinating.

Japan Two of Japan’s most remarkable cities have found beauty in reconciliation and acceptance. Hiroshima and Nagasaki, tragically known as the first targets of the atomic bomb in World War II, now serve as memorials to that terrible time. Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial, at the center of the city, details the events leading up to and following the dropping of the bomb. Its other sights include Shukkeiken Gardens, a collection of serene ponds, streams and vegetation that was commissioned by a feudal lord in 1620. Nagasaki has its own Peace Park and Atomic Bomb Museum — and its own story apart from the war. With verdant hills overlooking a deep-water bay, Nagasaki is often described as the San Francisco of Japan. The city is also proud to be the setting for Puccini’s classic opera, Madama Butterfly. Osaka was bombed nearly flat during the war, but it’s since been rebuilt into a marvel of concrete, with the Osaka Aquarium one of the highlights of new construction since the 1950s. However, the city maintains ties to its long history with the 400-year-old Osaka Castle and surrounding gardens, as well as the Dotonbori theater and entertainment district, which traces its origins to 1621. Another city that has had its fortunes rise and fall, albeit far less dramatically, Otaru was once an important port city that slid into economic decline. However, it’s on the upswing now, attracting visitors with winter sports, fine sushi and historic architecture. A fascinating survivor of its original prosperity is Nishin Goten (“Herring Mansion”), built in the 19th century by a prosperous herring merchant. About two hours away by train is Aomori, a World Heritage Site with many natural and historic attractions. The nearby Shirakami Mountains contain the world’s largest virgin forest of beech trees, and the area’s ancient sites include the Sannai-Maruyama Ruins dating from 4000 B.C. CLOCKWISE FROM TOP: The Forbidden City, Beijing; Itsukushima Shinto Shrine in Miyajima, an island off Hiroshima; Tian Tan Buddha, Hong Kong.

On the western coast of Japan lies Kagoshima, where shrines, temples and gardens bid a gracious welcome. Among the shrines is Kagoshima-jingu, which is believed to have been built by Japan’s first emperor, Jimmu. To the south, subtropical islands make up “the other Japan.” Here you will find Okinawa Island, a place of cherry blossoms and gardens, white-sand beaches and swaying palm trees. To the north in Hokkaido, Sapporo has become one of the most popular tourist spots in Japan. Sapporo celebrates its status as the birthplace of miso ramen, the famed noodle soup. Visitors can try numerous versions of it along Ganso Sapporo Ramen Yokocho, an alley dedicated to ramen restaurants. There’s even Sapporo Ramen Republic, a ramen theme park. Far from the bustle of Japan’s busiest cities, serenity awaits on the island of Kyushu, where Beppu is renowned for its healing geothermal waters and spas. Overlooking Beppu Bay to its east and protected from the west by dramatic mountain peaks, this exotic locale is blanketed with misty turquoise waters and elegant Japanese foliage. Ancient shrines, superb formal gardens and fascinating museums are part of the allure of Hakata. Once the sister city to Kukuoka, with which it merged in 1889, it was the launch site for Kublai Khan’s two invasions of Japan in the 13th century. Two anchor stones from the great Mongol fleet still on display at Hakata’s 8th-century Kushida Shrine.

p r in c e s s s h a r e s m o r e o f the wonders of Japan Japan is steeped in tradition and lore, with ancient sites, hallowed temples and natural wonders throughout the island chain. A cruise is the perfect way to fit it all in, and with voyages operating from two top-rated Japan ports — Tokyo and Kobe — Princess makes sure you see it all. Princess is offering a number of cruises to Japan in 2017-18, from short getaways to grand tours of multiple cities. As on all cruise vacations, you get to relax while being transported to multiple destinations. There’s no language barrier on Princess ships, but you can immerse yourself in Japanese culture while onboard. You can sample a traditional Japanese breakfast, explore an à la carte sushi bar and sip sake or tea at special tastings. Laugh at Rakugo comedy shows and experience Japanese music and cultural ceremonies, including a traditional Kagamiwari welcome ceremony by the ship’s captain. Even the spa has added Japanese amenities. Specially designed enrichment programs offer added insights into Japan’s art, culture and history. Shore excursions, conducted in both Japanese and English, explore the full breadth of Japanese history and culture. Ancient castles and shrines, majestic mountains, stunning gardens, fascinating museums — discover experiences of a lifetime on the cruise of your lifetime.

k yoto: ancient attrac tion Japan’s fifth-largest city, Kobe, holds many modern attractions. You can learn about the national spirit at a sake brewery museum. Or explore the Kitano-ocho district, a neighborhood of cafes, shops and museums in converted mansions where foreign merchants once lived. Many visitors flock to an ancient attraction nearby: Kyoto, the imperial capital of Japan and still its cultural and spiritual center. Not only does Kyoto have an astounding 2,000 religious structures — 1,600 Buddhist temples and 400 Shinto shrines — but they are remarkably well preserved, affording as authentic a view as possible in modern times. Because of its cultural value, it was spared much of the devastation that hit other Japanese cities during World War II; Kyoto was supposed to be it was one of the original targets of the atomic bomb, but was replaced by Nagasaki. Everywhere you turn here seems to have a shrine or temple of significance. One of the most popular is Kinkaku-Ji Temple, also known as the Golden Pavilion. This breathtaking site was built in 1397 as a shogun’s retirement villa and was converted to a Zen temple upon his death. The grounds include a magnificent garden with a wooden pavilion extending over a reflecting pond. Look up to learn where it gets its nickname: The two top stories are gilded with gold leaf. Several Princess port tours are available to see the best of these sites — see your onboard excursion specialist for information.

tokyo: frenetic and serene The moder n a nd t he a ncient coe x is t remarkably well in Tokyo, capital of Japan and one of the world’s largest cities. As a major technology center, the city seems obsessed with new ideas, products and technology — while remaining reverent of the ancient ways that helped to bring it here. On the Ginza, the city ’s famed international shopping destination, the pace of life is fast and upbeat. Not far away are the serene grounds of the Imperial Palace. Don’t worry; you’ll soon learn to reconcile the two moods. Tokyo’s ancient roots are evident in the many shrines and historical sites temples that can be found here. The Imperial Palace occupies the original site of Edo Castle, seat of power for the Tokugawa Shoguns during the Edo Period (1603 - 1867). Meiji Shrine honors the emperor who led the opening of Japan to the outside world in the late 1800s. Meiji Shrine is only a fast train away from the Shinjuku district, home to luxury shops and glittering skyscrapers. Outside the city, Mt. Fuji and Sankeien Gardens offer a special sense of peace. Or you can take it all in from atop Tokyo Tower, taller than the Eiffel Tower in Paris, with an observation deck 492 feet high.

South Korea More than 600 years as the hub of Korean business, art and politics have made Seoul the center of culture and home to the nation’s most stunning palaces, including the centuries-old Gyeongbokgung Palace. In the south, Busan attracts hundreds of thousands with its beaches, temples, shrines, hot springs and excellent shopping. It’s not hard to see why Jeju is one of South Korea’s top honeymoon destinations. Known as “the island of the gods,” it offers breathtaking views of waterfalls and volcanic peaks. Sunrise and sunset are especially lovely here, as is a day of horseback riding or just lying on the beach. Taiwan Bordering Taipei, Keelung City is a bustling port with plenty to see, including markets, historic forts and gorgeous seaside views. Despite being part of the largest metropolitan area in Taiwan, the downtown area is easy for visitors to cover on foot. Along the coast, the Waimu Shan seashore offers swimming and scuba diving, as well as spectacular cliffs. Serenity is part of the allure in Hualien, where a half-day visit to the Pine Garden is a must. History and nature combine on the former site of a Japanese military outpost, which was acquired by the Chinese government after World War II. It is now a center for the arts.

Malaysia Cut in two by the South China Sea, Malaysia is like two different countries. On the peninsula is Kuala Lumpur, reached via the port of Kelang. This is Malaysia’s hub of international commerce, boasting the tallest skyscrapers in Southeast Asia. On the border of Thailand, Penang, known for historic churches, temples and sandy beaches, is the high-tech sector of the country. Langkawi Island, on the other hand, stands apart as a center for nature conservation where visitors can explore the rainforest and catch sight of sea otters, monitor lizards and macaque monkeys.

Thailand Opulent palaces, ancient temples, irresistible bargains and sunny beaches draw people to Thailand, but it is the friendly Thai people who make visitors want to return. Many are drawn to the serene temples of Bangkok — more than 500 of them, including the dazzling Wat Phra Kaew, which houses the sacred Emerald Buddha, and Wat Pho, home to the 151-foot-long golden reclining Buddha. Lush green rainforests and miles of white-sand beaches caressed by azure waters make Phuket the place for those who love water sports, seafood and quiet places to relax. In contrast, Ko Samui, an island off the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand, teems with exciting nightlife and excellent shopping areas. United Arab Emirates Dubai, on the southeast coast of the Persian Gulf, is the UAE’s most populous city and its second-largest emirate in terms of geographical size, after Abu Dhabi. These desert oases are home to extreme sports, shopping and entertainment. In this business center of the Middle East, remote villages, sloping dunes and ancient souks contrast with modern shopping malls, lush golf greens and gleaming skyscrapers. Vietnam Previously called Saigon, the bustling French colonial Ho Chi Minh City has not forgotten its link to war, as recalled in the War Remnants Museum and the Reunification Palace. You will also find quiet beaches, wonderful food and shopping at Ben Thanh Market and Dong Khoi Street. To the north are the beaches of tourist-friendly Da Nang and Nha Trang, where visitors can enjoy diving, mud baths, mountain views and historic sites.

s in g a p o r e : t im e l e s s t r e a s u r e Situated at the end of the Malay Peninsula, the diamond-shaped island of Singapore is an exotic, exciting and eclectic blend of commerce, cultures and cuisine. But beneath the shiny, squeaky-clean veneer lie timeless treasures. Charming colonial buildings, quaint shops, a profusion of parks, nature reserves and cultural traditions have survived wars, political turmoil and centuries of change. The Colonial District, a cluster of 19th-century buildings recalling the days of British Colonial rule, is the best place to begin discovering Singapore. Those elegant days come alive with a visit to the Raffles Hotel. Built in 1887, it’s famed for its royal guests, for the legendary writers who hung out at its bar, and for its invention of the Singapore Sling cocktail. Singapore’s diversity is evident in three distinct ethnic neighborhoods. In Chinatown, trades such as clog-making and calligraphy are still practiced. The Arab Quarter offers historic mosques, cafés and shops displaying exotic antiques, jewelry, textiles and spices. And the Little India section serves a mélange of color, sounds and scents as vibrant as in downtown Bombay. Old and new, nostalgic and modern, native Asian and transplanted European — Singapore blends many moods and influences into one compelling culture.

Just south is Saguenay, known for its beautiful nature parks and fjords. Québec also features some truly breathtaking places, including the Gaspé Peninsula, which cuts into the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and Saguenay Fjord, a waterway that flows past rugged cliffs and charming villages. Gaspé is historic as well as beautiful; the explorer Jacques Cartier landed there in 1534 and claimed the region for France.

A favorite stop is the Canadian Museum of Immigration, which reveals Halifax’s past as a major immigration entry point. To the north, the story of Sydney is told with statues and plaques along the Oceanfront Esplanade. Many have fallen in love with the nearby town of Baddeck — including American inventor and entrepreneur Alexander Graham Bell, whose summer home, Beinn Bhreagh, is now a museum. You’re likely to hear stirring bagpipe music during your visit to both ports, a nod to their heritage as part of the province whose name means “New Scotland.”

Croatia The famed city of Dubrovnik, on the Adriatic Sea above the Mediterranean, is best known for its Old Town, which dates from the seventh century. Encircled by walls built between the 13th and 16th centuries, Old Town’s cobblestoned streets lead past well-preserved Renaissance and Baroque cathedrals, monasteries and museums. Such charms have earned the city the designation of UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dubrovnik is almost as renowned for its beautiful beaches, which are considered to be some of Europe’s best. France Cosmopolitan and chic, yet still relaxed and warm, the French Riviera is one of those places whose name says it all. Perhaps the ultimate in pleasure resorts, it surprises with quaint charms garnishing sun-drenched beaches and elegant promenades. Cannes hosts the famous international film festival each May. In the tiny principality of Monaco, there’s much more than the Monte Carlo casino for which it is best known. The Prince’s Palace, home of the royal Grimaldi family, is open to visitors, and fans of the late Princess Grace still pay their respects at Saint Nicholas Cathedral. If you have the time, take a stroll through charming St. Paul de Vence or stop by the Fragonard perfumery in Eze. Nestled between these two lovely resorts is elegant Nice, where many visitors begin their day at the open-air market and finish with a stroll through lovely Vieux Nice, the old city.

Greece Who but the goddess of wisdom could lend her name to the birthplace of civilization? Athena’s namesake, Athens, presents its ancient pedigree in remnants of monuments, statuary and sacred sites such as the grand Acropolis and the Temple of Zeus. The entry point for Athens is the port of Piraeus. Olympia, reached from the port of Katakalon, is where the mythical gods battled in sport every four years and where human athletes first began competing in the Olympic Games of the ancient era. The storied Greek Isles offer many attractions. Khios draws visitors to its medieval villages and the 11th-century monastery Nea Moni, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. More archaeological wonders await on the island of Crete, the largest and most populous of the Greek isles.

The city has been ruled by many powers over the millennia, from the Saracens in the 9th century to the Byzantine Empire, the Crusaders and finally the Venetians, whose influence can be seen in sites such as the Loggia, the Venetian Walls and the Fountain of Morosini. The ancient world also comes alive in Rhodes, with an astonishing profusion of palaces, forts, ramparts, Byzantine churches, mosques, public buildings and urban dwellings. Here, the immense Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, once stood watch from the harbor. On the other side of the country, the island of Corfu is blessed with natural beauty. Steep slopes rise from the eastern coast, sheltering turquoise coves.

How could they not be, with the French Riviera to the east and Tuscany to the west? At the center is Genoa, the birthplace of explorer Christopher Columbus, which sparkles with impressive art and architecture. Charming locales include the Italian Riviera resorts Santa Margherita and Rapallo and the five coastal villages known as Cinque Terra (“five lands”). Top heritage sites are the San Lorenzo Cathedral, the Ducal Palace on the Via Garibaldi and Chiesa del Gesu, a 16th-century church that includes several paintings by Peter Paul Rubens.

Many a traveler falls in love with Tuscany, from the rustic grace of its countryside to the artistic masterpieces of its cities — chief among them Florence, birthplace of the Renaissance and repository of some of the world’s greatest art and architecture. Visitors also have access to Florence’s neighbor, the lovely city of Pisa, where the famed Leaning Tower is just the beginning of a memorable afternoon. Both cities are reached from the port of Livorno. It’s hard to know where to begin in this city that brought us such giants as Dante, Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Brunelleschi and more. Many begin at the Piazza Duomo, an architectural masterpiece that inspired St. Peter’s in Rome and St. Paul’s in London. Other notable buildings include the Basilica di Santa Croce, which holds a shrine to the poet Dante and houses the tomb of Michelangelo. At the Piazza Della Signoria you can experience legendary art such as Michelangelo’s statue David — they’re just copies, of course, but the experience will feel almost authentic. Don’t forget to cross the Ponte Vecchio bridge. Pisa was one of Italy’s great seaports in its day but also has its share of creative accomplishments. The Piazza dei Miracoli, (“Square of Miracles”) is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The astronomer Galileo hailed from here, and may have used the Leaning Tower and the Cathedral to study gravity and other principles.

Aeral view of Capri, beautiful island in italy.

The Campania region, gateway to southern Italy, romances visitors with breathtaking views and rugged charm. The region offers many beautiful spots, few more beautiful than the Amalfi Coast — and along the coast, few places more interesting and intriguing than Naples. Once the domain of kings and wealthy noblemen, modern Naples is a lively, working port city. It has a strong cultural heritage and a tradition of appreciating the finer things. Many know that pizza was born here, but perhaps not that the romantic guitar and the mandolin also are Neopolitan inventions. Naples has the largest historic center in Europe, a 4,200-acre district that is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Within this area are hundreds of historic structures and gathering places, and beautiful villas and gardens dot the outskirts of the city. Across the blue waters of the Bay of Naples lies the isle of Capri, where fragrant lemon groves and beautiful scenery have drawn visitors since the days of ancient Rome. The towns of Anacapri and Capri Town offer an inspiring visit to the Villa San Michele, a stunning estate built on the same site once occupied by the villa of Rome’s Emperor Tiberiius. A bit south is the enticing town of Sorrento, high on the cliffs above the Bay of Naples. Take it all in over a glass of limoncello at one of Sorrento’s many seaside cafés; the liqueur was first created here with fruit from local lemon groves. Excellent hiking trails lie outside the city, or you can just walk the steep streets of the port. Across the bay can be seen Mount Vesuvius, which erupted in A.D. 79 and buried the then-prosperous city of Pompeii in lava. Excavations later unearthed sumptuous private homes featuring colonnaded central courtyards with lavish fountains and interior murals painted in vivid colors. Now dormant, Vesuvius is a national park with many walking trails and a visitors center at the summit.

The ancients called Rome the Eternal City because they believed it would live on forever, no matter what might befall others. The Roman Empire has fallen, but Rome does indeed live on. From the powerful images evoked at the Colosseum to the inspiration of the Sistine Chapel, the glory that is Rome hasn’t faded. The timeless city is yours to explore after you arrive in the port of Civitavecchia. At its height, Rome was the heart of the largest and most powerful empire in the world. The city would later become the center of Christianity. Both eras offer stirring evidence of their times: The Colosseum remains a captivating monument to the days when thousands watched Roman gladiators do battle, and pilgrims now travel by the thousands to Vatican City to worship at St. Peter’s Basilica or be transfixed by Michelangelo’s powerful painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Much of Rome is grand and magnificent, but there is room for romance and whimsy as well. The Spanish Steps are a favorite meeting place, especially for artists, photographers and the beautiful women hoping to model for them. The Trevi Fountain is said to grant the wish of anyone who tosses a coin into it. Be sure to stand with your back to the fountain and throw the coin over your left shoulder with your right hand. If your wish was to return to Rome someday, it’s sure to come true.

The city of Messina, portal to the island of Sicily, has been greatly rebuilt or refurbished only in the last 100 years, due to a devastating 1908 earthquake and then to bombings during World War II. Students of the great artist Caravaggio are drawn to the Regional Museum of Messina. Malta Crystal-clear waters, striking walled cities, picturesque fishing villages and arcane Neolithic temples older than Stonehenge all draw travelers to Malta. Valletta, the capital, was ruled for centuries by the knightly Order of St. John, and is lined with Baroque architecture. Other historical attractions include the Grand Master’s Palace, former residence of the Grand Master of the Knights of St. John; Mdina, the medieval capital, which can still be visited atop its hilltop perch; and beautifully preserved Vittoriosa.

Park Guell in Barcelona, Spain.

Spain The artistic and intellectual capital of Spain, Barcelona is best known for the art of Pablo Picasso and the architecture of Antoni Gaudí. The fanciful Parc Güell is a favorite place to take in Gaudí’s fanciful designs. Beautiful medieval buildings make up the Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter), while Las Ramblas, a neighborhood of wide, tree-lined boulevards in the Old City, features fabulous art and architecture. Browse the vibrant Boqueria Market or relax at a café and watch it all go by. The island of Mallorca’s principal city, Palma de Mallorca, has many identities. This modern tourist center features an arcing string of upscale hotels and restaurants and has become one of Europe’s most popular yachting harbors. Its Old Town, with a warren of winding streets and medieval and Renaissance buildings, holds great appeal for the curious traveler. The southern coast includes the famed Costa del Sol, a once-quiet seaside town that became a celebrity-fueled glamour spot in the mid-20th century. In Málaga, jasmine and bougainvillea gardens enhance the ancient streets and lovely old villas. It’s worth making time to visit Granada’s Alhambra, the world’s most outstanding Moorish castle, about an hour away. The Basque region, on the border with France, is one of Spain’s oldest regions, but it has more than kept up with modern times. Bilbao, on the Bay of Biscay, is the center of Basque culture and economic development. It is home to two of the country’s finest art galleries, the Bilbao Guggenheim Museum and the Fine Arts Museum, housing works by great masters such as El Greco, Goya and Gauguin. Vigo, in the Galicia region next to Portugal, boasts one of Spain’s finest fishing ports. The city’s maritime heritage is best seen by strolling on the winding cobbled streets, where sailors patronize tiny shops and cafés. The medieval-flavored Old Quarter offers plazas and fine dining where visitors can enjoy excellent regional cuisine.

England The legacy of the monarchy can be seen everywhere in London, from the mesmerizing Crown Jewels in the Tower of London to the venerated souls of the poets laid to rest in Westminster Abbey. It’s likely that Big Ben, Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery are on your sightseeing list, but be sure to also make time for the less blue-blooded attractions, including the restored Victorian market at Covent Garden, modern shopping at the famed Harrods department store and the theater district of the West End. London is merely the first of England’s history lessons. Thanks to the Norman Conquest of 1066, the realm includes the Channel Islands off the coast of France. Colorful flowers, fishing boats and whitewashed cottages may make Guernsey the prettiest of them. Stroll among the cafés, pubs and boutiques of St. Peter Port, the capital, or hop a ferry to visit the other Channels. Farther from the Channel, Liverpool is well known as the birthplace of the Beatles, but the Fab Four were just one of many bands that prompted Guinness World Records to christen this city the World Capital of Pop. Liverpool’s other claims to fame include pioneering various acclaimed styles of architecture, hosting diverse ethnic communities and, tragically, being the port of registry for the doomed ocean liner Titanic.

The picturesque city of Cork, reached via the port of Cobh, is filled with an enchanting network of quays and bridges. Nearby lies Blarney Castle, where the Blarney Stone is said to confer eloquence upon anyone who kisses it.

Northern Ireland Long an important center of shipbuilding, today Belfast has an active arts movement and wonderful shopping and sightseeing. Its four main neighborhoods are known as the Quarters: the Titanic, named for the most famous of the many ocean liners built here; the Cathedral, dominated by St. Anne’s Cathedral; Queen’s, where Queen’s University inspires vivacious entertainment and culture; and Gaeltacht, where the original village of Belfast first took root and which celebrates Celtic culture, including the original Gaelic language. Scotland Stunning architecture and first-rate museums are found in Glasgow, which also offers students of history an irresistible collection of ancient castles. Among the remarkable strongholds: Inverary, an 18th-century structure which serves as the seat of the Dukedom of Argyll; and Culzean Castle, which includes a top-floor apartment given to General Dwight Eisenhower in 1945 as a reward for his leadership in World War II. The historic seaport Inverness is also steeped in Scottish history. Visitors to Urquhart Castle can learn about the fortress’ role as a critical stronghold for Scottish forces. And local lore claims Inverness’ most famous resident, the “sea monster” Nessie, lives in a cave beneath the castle’s ruins. Whether you want to run into Nessie or just relax, a cruise on Loch Ness is highly recommended. From the beaches of Kirkwall in the Orkney Islands, just off the northeastern tip of Scotland, you may catch a glimpse of seals, porpoises, whales, orcas or dolphins. Go a bit more northeast and you’ll find the Shetland Islands, where Viking settlements are still in evidence and whose many other archaeological sites include the ruins of the 3,000-year-old Clickimin Broch, which sits in the center of Lerwick. Wales The busy port of Holyhead, on the island of Anglesey, is more than just a place to get a ferry to Dublin. A lively town center offers excellent dining and shopping, while fishing and sailing enthusiasts often take to the waters surrounding the island. History lovers are drawn to such attractions as Caernarfon Castle, on which construction began in 1283; and the medieval castle Llys Rhosyr. Holyhead’s maritime museum tells the port’s seagoing story, and the South Stack Lighthouse offers a dramatic view of the waters beyond.

e d in b u r g h: castles and crowns The ancient and the modern come together in Edinburgh, the political and cultural capital of Scotland. Its many historic buildings and reverent preservation of the past have earned it the designation of UNESCO World Heritage Site. The cosmopolitan city is near the rugged Highlands region, making its imposing skyline all the more dramatic. You can condense several sights into one with a visit to the Royal Mile, a neighborhood in the historic Old Town section. The Parliament Building is located here. The area has a number of shops and pubs you’ll want to make time to visit. Queen Elizabeth II herself calls Edinburgh home; when not at one of the royal residences in and around London, she may be found at Holyrood Palace. It’s a somewhat more modern mansion than Edinburgh Castle, the great medieval fortress that watches over the city from its perch on an eroded volcanic crag. Tours of the castle include the Crown Room in the 14thcentury Old Royal Palace, where Scotland’s Crown Jewels are kept. History students will want to visit some of the other castles near the city. Glamis Castle was the model for the setting of Shakespeare’s Macbeth. Stirling Castle and Bannockburn figured into Scotland’s early fight for independence. If you’re a serious golfer, there’s one place you won’t want to miss: the Royal & Ancient Golf Club in the medieval town of St. Andrews.

Canary Islands Active volcanoes and an otherworldly landscape make the island of Lanzarote one of the world’s most remarkable locales. Nearby Gran Canaria is a busy, happening place, and its beaches are heavenly, while Tenerife, largest of the Canary Islands, is blanketed with banana plantations, almond groves, pine forests, poinsettias, and one of Europe’s tallest peaks — 12,198-foot-high Mount Teide. France Artists, writers, historians and, of course, lovers have been drawn to Paris for centuries by the beauty of the Seine River, the inspiration of the Louvre’s art collection, the majesty of the Eiffel Tower, the gastronomic genius of the restaurants and the serenity of the Champs-Élysées. Visitors reach the City of Lights via Le Havre. Paris is the gateway to Normandy, from which the Allied invasion in 1944 began the liberation of Europe. Those terrible yet hopeful days are remembered at museums and memorials such as the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial and the Allies’ landing area in Omaha Beach.

Canal boats are just one of several ways to get around the city, which has more than 50 museums with collections ranging from the lighthearted (coffee, tulips, Russian vodka) to the sobering (Anne Frank House) and uplifting (works by Van Gogh and Rembrandt). More than just Amsterdam’s neighbor, Rotterdam proudly calls itself the Architectural Capital of the Netherlands, and the sleek designs through-out the city back up the boast. Ballet, opera, classical music and theater are among the oth-er cultural offerings, and shopping mavens will be glad to know that spacious malls are among Rotterdam’s attractions.

Portugal The capital and largest city, Lisbon, celebrates great Portuguese explorers — Vasco da Gama, Ferdinand Magellan and others — with the Monument to the Discoveries overlooking the harbor. Modernday voyagers who wish to linger in this sophisticated city have plenty of reason: It’s a walker’s paradise, with charms around every corner. Specialties here are seafood, honey bread and fado, Portugal’s hauntingly beautiful form of musical ballad. Pristine landscape, amazing volcanic formations and lovely beaches keep visitors coming back to Ponta Delgada, capital of São Miguel. The island is one of nine that make up the Azores, an archipelago about 900 miles off the coast of Portugal in the Atlantic Ocean. The city had to fortify itself against pirate attacks when it became the capital in 1546. Today the island’s most coveted treasure is the pineapples that are exported around the world and have even graced the table of the British Royal Family at Buckingham Palace. The island of Madeira — Pearl of the Atlantic — is scented with the aroma of mimosa, pine and eucalyptus. Its location in the midst of an Atlantic archipelago lends a luxurious subtropical exoticism, and its rich volcanic soil and mild year-round climate nourish an abundance of tropical flowers and plants. Madeira’s most prized fruit is the grape that creates the fortified wine named after the island of its production.

b e r lin: from cold war to t he cool

The stark days of the Cold War are long over, but Berlin still remembers the decades in which it was split in two between East and West. A visit here is about art and culture too, as well as delightful side trips to resorts and other attractions in the beautiful German countryside. Recent history is highlighted at several memorials from the years before and after World War II, but there is so much more to Berlin than those sad and tragic years. Gendarmenmarket, a 17th-century square, includes the magnificent Schauspielhaus Concert Hall. The tree-lined thoroughfare Under Linden is home to the State Library and Humboldt University. And if you do focus on the conflict that consumed the city, be sure to end with a visit to Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, a monument to peace and reconciliation. If you prefer to keep things modern, you have plenty of ways. Kurfurstendamm offers wonderful shopping at luxury department stores and designer boutiques, as well as delightful refreshment at restaurants and cafés. Make time for a visit to Mecklenburg, a summer retreat for 18th-century nobility. Get there in style, on a vintage steam train that will carry your spirit to a simpler time.

Visiting them may sometimes feel like going back in time, but it’s a simple matter to switch to fast-forward.

Estonia A jumble of alleys, towers and turrets give Tallinn the look of something imagined by the Brothers Grimm. It is one of the most picturesque and best-preserved medieval cities of Europe; its Old Town section, built from the 13th to 16th centuries, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that has retained its original structures remarkably well. Within Old Town’s meandering walls, you’ll find cafés, boutiques and art galleries that invite strolling, shopping and celebrating. The Kadriorg district offers more views of Tallinn’s history, from the days of Estonia’s rule by Russian czars through Soviet-era domination. Finland Occupying a spectacular seat on the Baltic Sea, Helsinki is a clean, stylish city noted for classical music, innovative designers and contemporary architecture. The commercial center, Aleksanterinkatu, has been compared to New York City’s Times Square for all the shops, cafés and restaurants along the street, and its convenient distance to key attractions such as Senate Square, the University of Helsinki, the Ritarihuone, the Helsinki Cathedral and the Nordea Bank.

Icelanders’ love of the outdoors is evident as well — this is the officially designated winter sports center of Iceland. Skiing, skating and ice fishing are top sports, but visitors also can watch whales or just relax in one of many geothermal pools. Reykjavík also boasts an active cultural tradition. Its symphony orchestra and opera company are at home in the Harpa-Reykjavík Concert Hall and Conference Centre. Beyond the city lie Iceland’s stunning natural wonders, ranging from ice fields to boiling thermal pools that enable many Icelanders to enjoy open-air swimming even in frigid weather. Far north of all of them is the quaint fishing town of Ísafjörður. First settled in the ninth century, Ísafjörður hosts several annual events, including music festivals and ski marathons.

Klaipeda is a leading light in architecture and design, and attracts a youthful-minded crowd. Jazz clubs, museums and galleries help Klaipeda keep its cool at night; daytime offers pretty parks and gardens.

Among the magnificent architecture is Drottningholm Palace, one of the residences of the Swedish royal family. The Royal Palace in Gamla Stan, Stockholm’s historic old town, offers another noble perspective; displays include the silver throne from Queen Kristina’s 1650 coronation, while the daily changing of the guard is one of Stockholm’s most popular events. The district remains a vital part of today’s Stockholm; shoppers and others fill the central square, Stortorget, and the main shopping street, Västerlånggatan.

Norway Deep-water fjords ringed by high-peaked mountains are among Norway’s most treasured elements, and so are the towns that grew up along them. The small village of Geiranger is at the head of Geirangerfjord, the crown jewel of these glacier-carved waterways. In Stavanger, hikers take in awe-inspiring views from above Lysefjord. In the city itself are Stavanger Cathedral, founded around 1125, and the Canning Museum, honoring the fishing industry with which Stavanger first prospered. Even Norway’s capital city, Oslo, sits on a fjord: Oslofjord, which, together with the forested mountains in the background, provides a majestic view as your ship approaches the harbor. Students of history should stop at the Viking Ship Museum for a glimpse of the nation’s origins. Other features take center stage in some ports. Alesund claims one of Europe’s most distinctive collections of Art Nouveau buildings, erected in 1907 — just three years after a devastating fire destroyed much of the city. Bergen takes its name from the Norse phrase “meadow among the mountains,” and does indeed offer a tranquil and picturesque slice of historic and contemporary Norway. In Honningsvaag, travelers may encounter numerous species of birds and herds of reindeer roaming freely. Flamm sends its visitors elsewhere: on a scenic trip on the Flåm Railway, which climbs 2,850 feet up a steep mountain gorge to Myrdal. The town of Trondheim is filled with classic 19th-century wooden townhouses, and with historical sites and museums including Nidaros Cathedral, a Gothic-style structure that was built over the grave of St. Olav. And the Paris of the North, Tromsoe, has grown up quite a bit since its early days as a whaling capital. Once a starting point for North Pole explorers and polar-bear hunters, today it is one of the more sophisticated destinations in Norway.

With its sheer walls and plunging waterfalls, Norway’s Geirangerfjord is one of the most beautiful and serene destinations on earth. Gazing at the fjord’s snow-covered mountain peaks, deep-blue water and lush vegetation is like experiencing a fantastic dream. It’s the crown jewel of Norway’s magnificent series of fjords, the long, narrow sea inlets that help define the nation’s rugged, rocky coast. Fjords were naturally created thousands of years ago when glaciers slid from the mountains down to the sea, carving deep inlets that filled with seawater. Norway’s fjords cut across cliffs, mountain lakes and waterfalls, intensifying the inlets’ beauty.

Those seeking Russia at its grandest go to St. Petersburg, celebrated for its architecture and the arts. It should also be celebrated for its survival skills: It has come through war and revolution and is still one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Much of the credit belongs to the city’s founder, Peter the Great, the visionary czar who defied convention and modernized Russian cities with European-style layouts. The many magnificent examples of St. Petersburg’s past include Peterhof Palace, which has been likened to France’s Versailles; the Hermitage Museum, which contains one of the world’s greatest art collections (more than three million pieces); Catherine Palace, home of another great Russian ruler, Catherine I; and Smolny Cathedral, a blue-and-white Baroque structure that Peter had constructed for his daughter and future czarina, Elizabeth. You can also thank Peter for one of the prettiest excursions in the city: a river cruise down the Neva. The czar conceived the river as a thoroughfare that was used for transport of people and merchandise, and today it is a relaxing, picturesque way to explore the city. St. Petersburg is known as the City of White Nights for its extended summertime daylight, which can last more than 22 hours in June and July. The city takes the opportunity to party in the sunlight, with the annual White Nights Festival in May and June.

Crown Jewel Geirangerfjord is such a perfect example of a fjord, it’s been listed since 2005 as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO (the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization). Situated in southwestern Norway, Geirangerfjord is surrounded by steep, alpine mountainsides stretching from sea level to far above the clouds. The fjord’s natural beauty comes from narrow, steep-sided, crystalline rock walls that rise from the sea and extend miles below. Entrancing Visitors for Over a Century The first foreign tourist ship to Geirangerfjord arrived in 1869, soon followed by booming a tourism economy. Horseback riding, hotels, catering, guided mountain hikes and boats tours began providing income for people who had previously earned marginal livings from farming. For generations since, the fjord’s commanding beauty has continued to attract visitors who are amazed at the thrilling mountain passes and breathtaking, seemingly endless scenery. Today’s visitors can explore Geirangerfjord by ship, bus or ferry. Ferry trips offer superb sightseeing between the small towns of Geiranger and Hellesylt, with plenty of time to experience the constantly changing vistas. For those who wish a more intense experience, kayaking trips let you dive into the dream.

Yet each country has its own special appeal, standing proudly apart from its neighbors with unique historical sites, natural wonders, culinary offerings and musical style.

Argentina The small city of Puerto Madryn leads to remote wildlife preserves and paleontology sites, as well as the world’s southernmost city, Ushuaia, capital of Argentina’s Tierra del Fuego Province. Ushuaia boasts sea, mountains, forests and an extensive tax-free shopping zone. Two of the island’s principal icons are the Museo del Presidio, a 1902 jail that housed dangerous prisoners and political exiles until it closed in 1947, and the elegant, antique Ferrocarril Austral Fueguino, aka the Train at the End of the World, which transports visitors through dense Tierra del Fuego National Park.

and the hub of the Amazon region, is the product of the 19th-century rubber boom. The city’s signature sight is the opulent Teatro Amazonas, completed in 1896. Santarém attracted industrialist Henry Ford, who spent $80 million to establish a rubber plantation for the production of automobile tires. Today, Santarém is home to the Town Hall Museum, which offers such exhibits as the pottery of the local Tupai Indians; the Municipal Market; and the Casa da Farinha factory, which demonstrates extraction of latex from rubber trees. Brazil’s fourth-largest city, Recife, offers a snapshot of the past, with a collection of charming squares, impressive churches, interesting museums and modern skyscrapers. Salvador, Brazil’s former capital, traces its African influence to the 17th century, when slaves were brought there to work in the sugar-cane fields — a heritage still evident in music, dance, cuisine and the Candomblé religion. Chile There are so many attractions in Chile to entice visitors. Coquimbo, the nation’s second-oldest city, is renowned for its beaches and local culture. Its neat, palm-lined streets are made for strolling, especially for those who enjoy viewing stunning examples of colonial architecture. A bounty of natural wonders awaits visitors to Puerto Montt, which is surrounded by national parks, lakes and mountains, where they’ll encounter a stunning landscape of lush alpine valleys, snow-covered volcanoes and sparkling, azure lakes formed by the retreating glaciers that once blanketed the region. Founded in 1848, Punta Arenas was originally a military garrison and penal settlement, later becoming a convenient stopover for vessels en route to California during the gold rush. Today, the city center boasts impressive mansions dating from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as well as a fine cathedral and an attractive central square. The port of Valparaíso has plenty of similarities to San Francisco. Cable cars toddle up and down steep hills lined with Victorian mansions and facing a scenic bay. Visitors stop here on their way to the wine country of Maipo Valley. The natives call their home Rapa Nui, but Dutch explorers began calling it Easter Island after arriving there on Easter Sunday 1722. It’s best known for the mysterious giant statues, some dating to 700 A.D., which were erected by the settlers who landed on the island during a great wave of Polynesian migration. Tours of Rapa Nui take visitors to archaeological sites while also sharing the island’s considerable natural beauty. Ecuador Just how historic is Quito, the capital of Ecuador? The entire city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site — not just individual attractions and venues, but the entire city. Designated as such in 1978, Quito is one of the best-preserved cities in South America, with impressive 16thand 17th-centur y Baroque architecture. Notable sites include the presidential palace (1570), the Church of San Fransisco (1604) and the Church of La Compañía de Jesus (1605). Quito is reached via the port of Manta.

Falkland Islands Hundreds of species find a natural haven in the Falklands Islands, one of the world’s last unspoiled refuges for bird and marine wildlife. In Stanley, the Falkland Islands Museum occupies two buildings and offers an overview of the area’s heritage. Much of its heritage is tied to the whaling industry, which it served as a way station for ships sailing to or from Cape Horn. Much of the Falklands heritage is tied to the whaling industry, which it served as a way station for ships sailing to or from Cape Horn. Christ Church Cathedral, with its whalebone arch, is a much-beloved symbol of Stanley’s past. The port also commemorates the 1982 Falklands War between the United Kingdom and Argentina, which established UK posession of the islands. Remembrances are found at the Historic Dockyard Museum and at numerous battlefield sites. Llamas graze above Machu Picchu, Falkland the ancient Islands Incan city near War Lima, Monument Peru.

b u e n o s a ir e s : ‘paris of the south’ Stretching along the Rio de la Plata, cosmopolitan Buenos Aires is famous for its passionate tango, tasty cuisine and dazzling kaleidoscope of neighborhoods. It is Argentina’s capital and most populous city, which is no wonder given its many cultural attractions — including one of the world’s greatest opera houses, the elegant and historic Colon Theatre. The “Paris of the South” offers endless variety in style and mood. In the fashionable El Centro neighborhood, modern skyscrapers tower over 19th-century mansions. Appealing diversions can be found in its cafés, bookstores and, most unforgettably, its tango bars. The tango may be Argentina’s greatest export, and Buenos Aires is among its most devoted practitioners. The seductive dance was born in the city’s poor neighborhoods, or barrios, and now is performed in elegant cafés and grand ballrooms; many locales offer lessons to visitors. Tango can easily be enjoyed in the open air in the San Telmo neighborhood, the city’s oldest section. Here, historic buildings and cobblestone streets take the visitor back to another time. Buenos Aires’ European flavor is evident in La Boca, an historic neighborhood at the mouth of the Riachuelo river. Here you will be charmed by the multi-colored houses, a vibrant street art scene and — of course — a number of atmospheric tango cafes. Argentina is nearly as famous for the gauchos (cowboys) who built the cattle boom that created Buenos Aires in the 1860s. Cow culture lives on at the estancias (ranches) where visitors can enjoy authentic barbecue and performances of the gauchos’ famed horsemanship skills.

Peru Originally dismissed as inhospitable — it’s near a desert, after all — Lima was the center of Spain’s imperial power until independence came in 1821. Its change of fortune gives today’s visitors a wealth of attractions to explore, from the magnificent Cathedral of Lima to the Gold Museum displaying 20,000 different items of Incan gold. The Historic Centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, awes visitors with its monuments and structures, including hundreds of charming balconies from the viceroyalty era that city officials are working hard to preserve. From Lima you can visit the ancient “lost city” of Machu Picchu, where the Inca Empire created many incredible scientific and architectural wonders. Nearby is Cuzco, a cosmopolitan city that also is known as “the archaeological capital of the Americas” for all the important sites found there.

photographed climbing its hilly streets. Think you’re in San Francisco? No — try Santiago, the capital of Chile and one of its most intriguing cities. Home to more than 5 million people, Santiago sprawls at the feet of the snow-capped Andes. The Maipo Valley, Chile’s internationally renowned wine district, is a short drive to the south. But don’t leave without exploring the many exciting things to do within the city: art galleries, design shops and handicraft markets for day visitors; in the evening, a number of good restaurants, bars and cafes. If you’re out even later, try the lively nightlife in the hip Bellavista section. Downtown has many fine museums, and the famous Central Market is a gourmet’s delight. Excellent shopping can be found in the stylish Alonso de Córdoba neighborhood. Plaza de Armas has been a focal point of the city since Spanish conquerors first built the city ion the 16th century; today it is a lovely place to enjoy a walk in the gardens and listen to music. For a more stirring experience, visit Constitution Square in front of Moneda Palace, formerly the official residence of Chile’s president.
