                <description><![CDATA[On our visit to Buenos Aires we stayed at the Casa Bolivar and it was excellent. The apartments are nicely presented with a kitchenette and are very clean. Breakfast and internet access are available in the main area. <br><br>The apartments are located in San Telmo, a 5 - 10 minute walk from the main area of San Telmo (Avenida Defensa) and a 15 - 20 minute walk from La Boca.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[The Secret Garden is a wonderful place to stay. The rooms are comfortable, very clean and set within a beautiful tropical garden. The Inn is located a five-minute walk away from the main centre of Puerto Iguazu and a two-minute walk to the end of the road to get the public bus to the Argentinian side of the Iguazu Falls, Foz do Iguacu (Brazil) and Ciudad del Este (Paraguay).<br><br>The proprietor of the Secret Garden is John Fernandes, an incredible chap who makes you feel welcome and is extremely interesting to talk to. Every night John hosts a 'Sundowner' with scrumptious caipirinhas and bruschettas, a fitting end to each day after seeing the beautiful Iguazu Falls. Its also a pleasant way to meet other people and pick up good tips on seeing the falls. <br><br>John will also sort out any transport that you need and has some very good recommendations of local places to eat and drink. He arranged for us and another couple to visit the Brazilian side of the falls, a brilliant  wildlife park and Ciudad del Este!<br><br>There is no better way to stay and see the falls!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Every evening around 7 o'clock there is an incredible Hindu ceremony to the gods through the five elements, which is performed by sadhus. The ceremony takes place on the main ghats along the River Ganges in the centre of Varanasi. <br><br>The walk to the main ghats through the markets is a great experience too. The main ghats are around the Dasaswamedh ghat, which is one of the oldest and holiest ghats. Here you can take a rowing boat on to the Ganges to catch the ceremony from the river. It's incredible to watch the ceremony and it was a really memorable experience of India. <br><br>It's a great way of getting in touch with the spiritual side of India in the oldest and one of the holiest cities in this amazing country.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A bit on the expensive side but well worth waiting for this treat. The restaurant serves Konkan food, which is cuisine from the west coast of India. They do really good fish and spicy creamy curries. <br><br>We had fish wrapped in banana leaf and prawn curry. The dosas are great too. We backpacked around the whole of India and spent our last night here. Fantastic!]]></description>
