Vale, a small town in the Samegrelo-Verkhnyaya Svaneti region of western Georgia, is situated in the southern foothills of the Caucasus Mountains near the Black Sea coast and attracts explorers with its untouched natural beauty and rich history. The traditional Georgian way of life has been preserved here, and visitors can stroll through the old stone streets and admire the ancient frescoes of medieval churches, or hike the surrounding valleys and experience the breathtaking beauty of the snow-capped mountains intertwined with the meadows. The vineyards around Valle are one of the most important sources of Georgian wine culture, with the locals continuing an 8,000 year old tradition of winemaking and making unique red wines in clay pots (qvevri). As the gateway between the Caucasus and the Black Sea, Valais is a small place that encapsulates the essence of Georgia's nature, history and people, making it an ideal destination for an in-depth experience of Transcaucasia's charms.
Mapulaca is a small, quiet town in the Valle department of western Honduras, about 120 kilometers southwest of the capital city of Tegucigalpa, in the transition zone between the volcanic belt of Central America and the lowlands of the Pacific coast. Surrounded by fertile arable land, this small, agriculturally based town is home to residents who grow corn, beans, and sugarcane, where the traditional farming culture lives on. Despite its small size, Maplaca is becoming a hidden destination for backpackers looking to explore the Honduran countryside, thanks to its simple people and untouched, untouched landscape. The surrounding savanna and scattered hilly landscapes provide natural delights for bird watching and hiking, and are one of the windows to experience Honduras' native culture.
