"In a region spanning over 7 million square miles, the best places to go in Central and South America simply depend on what you're looking for. We're talking about two continents touching two oceans, crisscrossed by surging rivers as mighty as the Amazon and the Paraná, whose lush landscapes and dramatic moonlike deserts are carved by volcanoes, jagged mountain ranges, turquoise lakes, and jaw-dropping waterfalls."
"What moved us this year were tales of transformation-how one Colombian city continues to evolve as a hub for farm-to-table dining and community-focused urban design; or, how the overlooked capital of Paraguay has begun to draw travelers who previously flew over it en route to neighboring countries, thanks to new restaurants, parks, and boutique hotels. There are also wild landscapes in Northern Patagonia and the Southern Andes, tamed only by new lodges that act as plush launchpads for remote hiking and wildlife spotting."
