2. What places/attractions/monuments or places to visit in Germany that are considered historical and cultural?

It's true that your question is too broad, because there are so many attractions in this area. But I'm rather traditional and I always like to check the official homepage of a place, then go and explore the forums that give visitors impressions. This combination gives you both perspectives of the place and you can easily fit in your interests in the picture you get from the information collected. http://www.nuernberg.de/internet/portal_e/index.html

6. What Type of Seasonal Attractions Are There Around and In The Great Lakes?

The obvious attraction to the Great Lakes is the amazing sailing and boating destinations. If you don't spend a lot of time on a boat, there are still plenty of exciting events and attractions surrounding the Great Lakes especially during the summer months. The Lake Michigan coast is one of the world's most beautiful shorelines, encompassing some of the top beaches on the Great Lakes. In addition, there are plenty of opportunities for adventure with sand dunes to climb, big cities to visit, pristine waters to sail, swim and explore, postcard-perfect sunsets to enjoy and fabulous fishing. Without a doubt, all of the Great Lakes are swim-able. In your case - Lake Michigan - may not be warm enough until August, but that all depends on where you will be. The city of Chicago has over 23 miles of beach on the Lake Michigan shoreline where residents and tourists go to beat the heat during the summer months. Obviously a city like Chicago will always have events going on to entertain but if you're relocating to Michigan you may want to investigate the many festivals that take place in communities right on the lake. You're quite likely to find many food and music festivals. Just visit the state of Michigan's tourism website. They list everything taking place throughout the entire state. If Michigan is your destination, you'll also be able to enjoy Lake Huron and Lake Superior. Michigan has the longest freshwater shoreline in the world and has more shoreline than any other state except Alaska.

17. What is the difference between points of interest and tourist attractions?

A point of interest would be a place that might interest you when you travel somewhere. It can be something as simple as scenic overlook on a mountain road. They weren't necessarily put where they are on purpose. They're just sort of there. A tourist attraction is a place that has been specifically built for the purpose of drawing tourists. A good example would be an amusement park.

18. What are the main tourist attractions of Guatemala?

1.- The Ruins of Tikal is a beautiful tourist places with its ruins that are incredible, the pyramids are unbelievable. One wonders how were the Indians able to build them when they had no heavy equipment. Tikal is in a department called Peten. Guatemala has 22 departments. (similar to States in the USA) 2.- La Antigua is another beautiful place to visit. Guatemala City used be in Antigua, but it was destroyed by an earthquake. (I believe it was in 1917) I am not too sure abut the date. most of the streets are stoned instead of pavement. It has many convents and beautiful churches, it is a very religious town. 3.- Lake Atitlan is another enchanted tourist place, the description given by the other people is correct, with the volcanoes and the 12 towns around the lake. The towns have the name of the 12 apostles. I hope this helps for your project.

20. What are some good ethnic restaurants in Midtown Manhattan and best attractions?

NYC has an awesome array of ethnic cuisines - with its great Chinatown and Little Italy downtown. If you go to Chinatown - definitely hit up Joe's Shanghai, they've won countless awards for their soup dumplings (FYI - they don't accept credit cards, so come prepared with cash!). They have a few locations around NYC, but their Chinatown location is the BEST (9 Pell St), but they do have a midtown location. And if in Chinatown, hit up the Chinatown ice cream factory - they make all of their ice cream on site, and in crazy flavors like almond, taro, green tea, red bean, lychee, etc. My favorite is the lychee. Chinatown is also great for bargain shopping (umm... a little shady, but you can get knock off designer bags there!). In the midtown area - there's an unofficial Little Korea (otherwise known as Koreantown) - near 8th Avenue and 32nd Street - where several blocks are filled with great Korean restaurants. My favorite is Kun Jip (9 W. 32nd St), where you can BBQ your own meat right at the table - they're known for their thick cut pork belly, and it's AWESOME. There are also fun karaoke places around that you can hit up late night. For must see attractions - definitely have to go to Central Park (I love the Children's zoo, which is fun to go to in the summer - it's not the best zoo, but definitely the cutest, I love the Polar Bear exhibit!). Take a walk down 5th avenue, and stop by the pricey stores, and also the Apple store (767 Fifth Ave) - which is just fun to look at. Gray's Papaya is also a must visit (539 Eighth Avenue at 37th Street), they serve great hot dogs and juices on the cheap (and was also featured in You've Got Mail, and a ton of other movies - it has a cult following in NY!). Have afternoon tea at the Plaza Hotel (although, that's a bit pricey at $60/pp, but definitely something to write home about). Or just walk around the Plaza. Good times. Go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art (although that's an entire day in doing just that), or MOMA (Museum of Modern Art). If given the choice, I'd go to MOMA to look at Van Gogh's Starry Night. Hit up the TKTS booth in Times Square (right across from MTV studios), and score cheap same day Broadway tickets. There are literally a million and a half things to do in NYC, the above mentioned are my favorites. I really hope you enjoy yourself! (And please don't go to the chain restaurants like the Cheesecake factory that you can go to anywhere else in this country)!
