Hodeidah

Overview Introduction Hodeidah (pop 130,000) is a Red Sea port city. The surrounding area looks very African, complete with straw and mud huts, scrub bush and sand.

Hoi An

Overview Introduction The colorful market town of Hoi An, on the banks of Vietnam's Thu Bon River about 400 mi/640 km southeast of Hanoi, is worth a two-day visit—longer if you're a shopper. It was a major port in centuries past, with ships arriving from all over the world for cargoes of silk and...


Holetown

Originally known as Jamestown and located in St. James Parish, Holetown, Barbados, is a modern, busy place. The heart of the west coast, it has restaurants, shopping, supermarkets and nightlife.

Holland

Located 165 mi/265 km west of Detroit, on the shores of Lake Michigan, Holland—as you might expect from its name—makes much of its Dutch heritage: It was founded by immigrants from the Netherlands in 1847, and it continues many of the traditions of the mother country.

Homs

Although it's Syria's third-largest city and only 100 mi/160 km north of Damascus, few visitors bother to stop in Homs. The main sites include the Great Mosque al-Nuri, the Um al-Zunnar Church and the Church of St. Elian, where some very old frescoes were discovered in 1970. Homs is well-situated ...


Honduras

Honduras offers an array of different vacation experiences—perhaps more than any other country in Central America. It can be a resort-oriented getaway for divers and snorkelers (in the Bay Islands), a showplace of Mayan archaeological treasures (at Copan) or an eco- and adventure-travel playground (...


Hong Kong

Hong Kong is a place of contrasts—geographically, socially and economically. Although many Asian cities claim to be where East meets West, the former British Crown colony is probably the closest the world comes to the genuine article. Travel to Hong Kong and scratch the cosmopolitan, tech-heavy ...


Honningsvag

Overview Introduction Honningsvag, Norway, is, in some ways, the most northern point of Europe. It is also the largest cruise port in Northern Norway, with about 100 cruise ships every summer season. Location Cruise ships dock at one of five piers in the port, all of which are less than a fiv...

Hoorn

Hoorn makes an attractive day trip from Amsterdam because of its colorful history and charming village atmosphere.

Hoover Dam/Lake Mead

A fast-developing but still ultralow-key beach area on the coast between Dangriga and Placencia, 80 mi/130 km by road south of Belize City, Hopkins maintains the feel of a friendly Garifuna village.

Hornafjordur

Hofn is a small fishing town in the southeast of Iceland. It's a good place to stock up on supplies.

Hofn's small airport serves domestic f...


Hortobagy

Hortobagy is the name of both a region and a town in the Great Plain of eastern Hungary. Locally, they call the area puszta , which means "deserted, flat and barren land." (Mirages are somewhat common on hot summer days.) It's worth spending a day just absorbing the lifestyle—the old, rural Hungari...


Hot Springs

The first thing to know about Hot Springs, Arkansas, is that its name is appropriate: The springs that bubble to the surface there are renowned for their purified water and have been an attraction for centuries. Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto is thought to have visited them in the 1500s. The supp...


Hot Springs

Houma

Houma, a small town at the intersection of seven bayous 45 mi/70 km southwest of New Orleans, has 52 utilitarian-looking bridges spanning the waterways. It's also sometimes known as the "Venice of Louisiana" because so many people use boats and bayous to get around. Nowadays, it's a gateway to the w...


Houston

When Houston, Texas, dubbed itself Space City, it was referring to its connection to the stars (via nearby NASA's Johnson Space Center, built in 1961). But the nickname could just as well refer to the enormous amount of earthbound space the town occupies within the city limits, much less the metro ...


Hsipaw

Overview Introduction Hsipaw (pronounced see-paw ), Myanmar, was once a Shan royal city, at least until its last prince, Sao Kya Seng, was kidnapped in 1962.

Hua Hin

The once-sleepy beachfront resort town of Hua Hin, 125 mi/200 km south of Bangkok on the west coast of Thailand, has begun to attract well-deserved attention. As the location of the summer palace of the king of Thailand, Hua Hin found favor with wealthy Bangkok Thais long before it was discovered by...


Huahine

Our favorite of the Society Islands, Huahine is a great choice for anyone who wants to see something aside from the main tourist islands (Tahiti, Moorea and Bora Bora). Located 110 mi/180 km northwest of Papeete, on Tahiti, it's uncrowded enough to fit most people's expectations of a sleepy Polynes...

Huang Shan Mountain

The attractive Huang Shan Mountain resort region, 80 mi/125 km south of Nanjing, is about a day's drive from both Hangzhou and Shanghai in Anhui province.

Huaraz

Huaraz, about 180 mi/290 km north of Lima, is Peru's most important center for treks and mountain climbing in the Cordillera Blanca and Cordillera Huayhuash. Huaraz has a glorious setting beneath the glaciated peaks of the Cordillera Blanca—from your hotel window you can see Huascaran (Peru's highes...


Huatulco

Don't let Huatulco's Mexican colonial-style architecture fool you—most of it is just a few decades old. The brainchild of Fonatur, Mexico's tourism development agency, this is one of the country's newest Pacific-coast resorts, and it represents a carefully balanced attempt at mixing high-end touris...


Hudson River Valley

The lovely Hudson River Valley area, which begins about 45 mi/70 km north of New York City, can be visited while traveling between New York City and Albany.

The sanctuary was designated by the U.S. Congress in 1992...


Hungary

Hungary might not be what you expect from an eastern European country. Because it opened its borders to the West before many of its neighbors, it also had a head start on hospitality, welcoming visitors with its rich and varied cuisine, gorgeous wine regions and steamy thermal spas. From the strikin...


Hunter Valley

The Hunter Valley, which covers about 9,650 sq mi/15,530 sq km, has more than 120 wineries that produce mostly high-quality vintages, especially Semillon (white) and Shiraz (red).

Huntington

Huntington Beach

A quintessential beach town, Huntington Beach, California, is a surfer's paradise located in Orange County, less than 10 mi/16 km up the coast from Newport Beach and about 35 mi/56 km south of Los Angeles.

Hurghada

A well-known resort on the Red Sea 240 mi/385 km southeast of Cairo, Hurghada, Egypt, has a beautiful crescent-shaped bay, rugged mountains and good beaches, but the main attraction is a nearby coral reef—one of the finest in the world.

Hvar

The name Hvar refers to both the island and the principal town on the island. If you arrive on the island by ferry, you may land at Stari Grad, which lies northeast of Hvar. We found the road from Stari Grad to the town of Hvar, creeping along a narrow precipice overlooking the sea, to be beautiful...

Hveragerdi, Iceland, offers walking trails, health spas and an opportunity to see vegetables and fruit growing in greenhouses heated by geothermal water. It's a nice place to relax.

Hyannis

Regular fishing and scenic excursions leave from Hyannis, Massachusetts, which serves as a port for ferries from Cape Cod to Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket islands. (You also can catch ferries to the two islands from other towns.) The Old Jail built in the early 1700s is supposedly Cape Cod's most ...


Hyderabad

Hyderabad is the only southern Indian city where Islamic influences in architecture, history and culture predominate. It was under Muslim rule for centuries, and about 40% of the city's population is Muslim. Hyderabad is architecturally distinct from other Mughal-founded cities, and its unique atmos...


Hydra

If you must pick one island near Athens to visit, our vote is for Hydra, 50 mi/80 km south of Athens. It has style—gracious centuries-old stone houses climb the hills surrounding a lovely boat-filled harbor. And it offers peace and quiet—it is easily accessible by ferry, and neither cars nor the ob...
