A. Great historical battlegrounds are often marked on maps so people can visit them and learn about the sacrifices others made for a cause. In Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, USA, is the site of the Battle of Gettysburg, which was a turning point in the American Civil War. The area is now preserved as a national landmark in memory of an important time in American history.
B. Some very famous people have had their birthplaces turned into museums. This is true of Elvis, the ‘king’ of rock and roll, who was born in Memphis, Tennessee. Visitors can enter his home and see where he slept, ate, and spent his free time. In England, one of the many examples of this is in Portsmouth, where people can visit the birthplace of Charles Dickens, which is also a museum.
C. Visiting a famous tower or high-rise building has the added bonus that not only can you view the building, but you can go to the top and view an entire city. Take the Eiffel Tower or the Empire State Building, for example. Both are located in famous cities, both are majestic to see from the ground, and both allow visitors to climb to the top and see for kilometres in every direction.
D. High in the Peruvian Andes lies Machu Picchu, an Inca settlement founded hundreds of years ago. People from all over the world flock to this site because it is one of the most peculiar settlements of any ancient civilisation. Situated almost 2,500 metres above sea level, it was a difficult place to reach all those many years ago, and the views of the settlement are breath-taking.
E. Located in northern Greece are a number of bridges that have fascinated architects for years. People in the field often travel to study these bridges, which are a marvel to look at, to imagine how they were built hundreds of years ago. The techniques used to build them are still applicable today, and aside from their marvellous construction, they are located in rugged terrain that is equally stunning to view.
F. Cities in the world that have existed for thousands of years — think Athens, Rome, Cairo and Damascus — have areas today that are considered 'old towns', which have a great deal of character and are magnificent to wander around. While the old towns haven’t existed as long as the cities have been inhabited, they were built hundreds of years ago and give those who visit them a taste of a different era.
G. Many of the world’s greatest cities have massive structures built to commemorate a turning point in a country’s history. Paris’s Arc de Triomphe honours victory in the French wars and Napoleonic wars that occurred at the turn of the 19th century. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate was built as a symbol of peace in 18th-century Prussia. Aside from honouring history, they are attractive monuments and give an air of grandeur to their cities.
