Journey
to History's Lost Cities 2007 Private Jet Package
Some of mankind's finest achievements are also the hardest to
reach, tucked away in the world's remote corners. We lay them
at your feet: Libya's jaw-dropping ancient Roman theaters, Petra's
rock-carved treasurey, the massive temple complex of Angkor,
Lhasa's sprawling Potala Palace.
The centuries have done little to tarnish the vibrant detail
of Xi'an's life-sized clay warriors — each distinct from
the thousands of others in the "terracotta army" —
or the exquisite blue-tiled mosques of Samarqand, the rich frescoes
and glass mosaics of Udaipur's City Palace and Vientiane's golden
stupas.
Your Lost Cities journey touches many different worlds, from
the soaring heights of the Himalayas in Tibet to the underground
tombs of Xi'an, from the Mediterranean coast of North Africa
to the green expanses of Southeast Asia, from the sheer desert
canyons of Jordan to the scenic lakes of India's Rajasthani
capital.
The
people of history's lost cities are very much alive in the faces
of their contemporary successors. Rub elbows with Angkor's Buddhist
pilgrims, Rajasthani royalty, desert nomads, members of Hmong
and Mien hill tribes, Uzbek merchants and Tibetan monks.
