City Guide

Aromáticos pinares, volcanes impresionantes, paisajes lunares, calas arenosas, kilómetros de dunas como las del Sáhara, centros vacacionales de playa: las bellas y singulares islas Canarias tienen muchas caras, y todas son igual de tentadoras.Los amantes de las Canarias conocen un cálido secreto: estas remotas y relucientes islas ofrecen mucho más de lo que muchos esperan. Es un rincón fascinante y maravillosamente variado que dibuja una sonrisa en el viajero en cuanto aterriza en las costas volcánicas de Lanzarote, camina por la mágica laurisilva de La Gomera o se escapa a las piscinas naturales de la distante El Hierro.

El espectacular vacío del paisaje arábigo aporta un lienzo en blanco sobre el que se proyecta un cúmulo de maravillas culturales, religiosas, intelectuales y comerciales. Arabia evoca a la reina de Saba y las caravanas de camellos que portaban incienso desde Dhofar, en Omán; los dhows cargados de perlas en Dilmun; las ruinas del imperio de Madain Saleh, en Arabia Saudí. Hoy caravanas y dhows realizan diferentes actividades, pero el léxico de Las mil y una noches que introdujo el vulnerable y exótico mundo de Sherezade en Occidente aún ayuda a definir la península. Ya sea visitando un fuerte, regateando en un zoco o adentrándose en laberínticos callejones, no se tarda en descubrir la magia eterna de Arabia.
