Located in southeastern Alaska, USA, near the entrance to Rangel St. Elias National Park, McCarthy is an isolated historic town that sprang up in the early 1900s as a result of the mining of the nearby Kennecott Copper Mine, which housed thousands of miners, but today the abandoned mines and log cabins still bear the marks of its pioneering past. The town is not accessible by road, and visitors need to walk or take a ferry to get there, a unique mode of transportation that adds to its primitive charm. Surrounded by glaciers, snow-capped mountains and pristine forests, McCarthy is ideal for hiking, bear watching, glacier viewing and aurora borealis, attracting travelers with a passion for outdoor adventure. Though sparsely populated, the area retains a strong sense of community, with cafes, lodges and museums telling the story of the wilderness, making it an excellent gateway to experience the beauty of Alaska's wilderness.
The capital and largest city of the Principality of Andorra, Escrivá is located in the valley of the Pyrénées mountain range in southwestern Europe, at an altitude of about 1,023 meters above sea level. As the political, economic and cultural center of Andorra, the city is known for its unique tax-free shopping, ski resorts and medieval architecture.
Surrounded by mountains, Escrivár has cold, snowy winters and cool summers, with an average annual temperature of around 9°C. The Valira River runs through the city, and the old town, which retains the 12th-century church of St. Estefan and its stone buildings, stands in stark contrast to the modern business district.

The city also hosts cultural events such as the International Jazz Festival.
