The Coolest Place to Visit in Latin America...and Why?

Your Assignment (worth 5 points; due by 11:59pm on 1/9/15):
1) Think about Latin America and all the cool spots you would like to visit there.
2) In the comment section of this post, put your coolest spot (be specific!) in Latin America you would like to visit and explain why you think it is/would be so cool to visit . . . describe it a little in a short paragraph of a sentence or two so others will understand its coolness...it could be a city, state, country, monument, physical geography feature, etc.!
3) Make sure your choice is unique . . . no two people may choose the same location . . . if someone else already chose your location, go to your choice #2 (or #3).
4) When you comment, put your first name, last initial (only!), and your class period.
5) If you are having trouble remembering where "Latin America" is, see the map below!
Good luck!

I think the coolest place to visit in Latin America is the Panama Canal in Panama. I think it is an engineering wonder and overall a really cool experience.

Argentina because it has always seemed like a cool place to visit because it's almost on the opposite side of the world. Argentina is one of the places were I can go and almost be in Antarctica without being in Antarctica.

I would go and visit the statue called Christ the Redeemer in Rio. It seems like a really cool place to visit and the statue is 98ft tall! Plus One Direction visited the statue when they were touring in South America so I need to take a selfie there too!

I would like to go to Puerto Rico because I would like to visit El Yunque, a national park that happens to be the national park for Puerto Rico in the America the Beautiful National Park Quarter Series. Another reason that I chose Puerto Rico is because I would like to see what American culture is like out of the states.
