Anyway, the city has only 63.600 inhabitants, but it has much more to do than one would expect. It's one of the major tourist cities in Argentina and you can go hiking in the Tierra del Fuego National Park, take a catamaran tour in the Beagle Channel (and see penguins in the summer), go skiing in the winter and so on.
It is also the capital of Tierra del Fuego, Antártida y Islas del Atlántico Sur (which, by the Argetinian definition, includes also the Falklands, you can see the Falklands in all Argentinian made maps), which is an oil-producing area in the country and it also g... <a href="https://www.liveinternet.ru/users/alex_zbruew/post184414796/">Читать далее...</a>

It is also the capital of Tierra del Fuego, Antártida y Islas del Atlántico Sur (which, by the Argetinian definition, includes also the Falklands, you can see the Falklands in all Argentinian made maps), which is an oil-producing area in the country and it also gets revenue from it. Ushuaia has also some factories and they're the actual reason for the city having so many inhabitants. Nowadays the industrial park is being transferred to Río Grande, in the nothern part of the island, while Ushuaia is intended to become primarily a tourist city.
Anyway, I don't wanna bore you guys with so much talking, so let's take a look at the pics:

First we begin with Punta Arenas, the capital of Chile's XII Region, the southernmost one. It has around 120.000 inhabitants and lies on the Strait of Magellan. The city had a huge Croatian influx and still has some links with Croatia. The city center is very neat with beautiful constructions and beautiful open spaces. There's also a beautiful avenue that runs North-South in the city along the Strait of Magellan with nice views from it.

Anyway, here you are the pics.

[more]
A lot of port and industrial facilities along the waterfront. There are some parks, but not many. Hope there'll be more in this part of town in the future.
The waterfront areas shown here are more touristy. They've done a decent job making the area friendly to locals and visitors alike. Kaohsiung isn't a big skyscraper city, but its urban cityscape is quite dense with a lot of buildings packed block after block.
Simcity!

There were far less motorbikes and mopeds on the streets than my previous visit to Taiwan in 2003.
Although I said there weren't as many of these as before, they continue to be parked right on the sidewalk, and sometimes drivers weave their way through pedestrian traffic to get to the stree... <a href="https://www.liveinternet.ru/users/alex_zbruew/post183719854/">Читать далее...</a>

This is the main train station, although the high speed trains from Taipei don't reach this far. They drop you off about half an hour north of here.
The old railway station sits next door.
A quick stroll along the side streets reveals how gritty this place is.
Here's a pedestrian arcade ...
Traditional Chinese foods ... anyone interested?
