# Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha

Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha is a British overseas territory consisting of the islands of Saint Helena and Ascension, together with the Tristan da Cunha islands group. These are among the world's most isolated islands and separated from each other by many hundreds of miles.

## Regions

* Ascension
* Saint Helena
* Tristan da Cunha (Gough Island)

## Understand

Jamestown :
| Currency | Saint Helena pound (SHP) pound sterling (GBP) |
| Population | 5.6 thousand (2016) |
| Country code | +247, +290, +27 |
| Time zone | UTC±00:00 |
| Emergencies | 999 |
| Driving side | left |
This is not a country but an administrative structure of the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs of the UK. It was created on 1 September 2009, when a new constitution came into force giving the three islands equal status within this territory.
That means that all relevant information is provided and maintained in the equivalent sections of the three individual islands (separated by many hundreds of miles) rather than here.

## Talk

English is the main language used on these islands.

## Get in

(See the appropriate section of the article for the particular island you are interested in.)
Visitors require entry approval from the Administrator's office, requested in advance in writing. They must also have full medical insurance which will cover the expense of medical evacuation, if needed.
No visas are required.

### By plane

* Saint Helena has an airport (HLE) with flights every Saturday from Johannesburg, South Africa. See more in Saint Helena.
* Ascension Island has monthly service from Johannesburg by way of Saint Helena, operated by Airlink. The military charter flight from RAF Brize Norton close to Oxford in the United Kingdom ceased operating in 2017.

### By boat

* The Royal Mail Ship Saint Helena retired from passenger service in February 2018.

## Get around

See the appropriate section of the article for the particular island you are interested in.

## See and do

Consult the appropriate section of the article for the particular island you are interested in.

## Buy

The St Helena pound is at parity with the pound sterling which is accepted everywhere together with the South African rand and Euro. Pounds are subdivided into 100 pence.
The Tristan da Cunha archipelago is more than a couple of thousand kilometres away from St Helena, and St Helena pounds rarely make it that far, so people in Tristan da Cunha tend to use British coins and banknotes instead, when they are not bartering.
Costs are about 30% greater than the UK, except for vices.

## Eat and drink

See the appropriate section of the article for the particular island you are interested in.

## Sleep

See the appropriate section of the article for the particular island you are interested in.

## Stay safe

# Palo Cedro

Palo Cedro is a city in the Shasta Cascades region of California.

## Get in

By car is the main means of transportation to Palo Cedro.

## Get around

You can go through town in any or all of four ways: driving a car, walking, bicycling, or, as this is a very equestrian-friendly town, horseback riding. Driving a car is fast, but you miss most of the scenery. Walking is slow as molasses, but you get a whole lot of scenery. Horseback riding, assuming you have a horse, is a great compromise. If you don't have one, there is bicycling, also a good compromise.

## See

If you came to see farm animals and Old West history, you've come to the right place. However, if you're not interested in that, move right along.

## Do

Horseback riding, again, is very big here. A lot of the time, rodeos take place here. If you came to learn about the history, Palo Cedro is good for that. Other than that, there's nothing much.

## Buy

There are no major shopping areas in Palo Cedro.

# Palopo

Palopo is a city in the province of South Sulawesi, Indonesia. With a view of the sea and the mountains and fresh air, Palopo's motto is "Bersih indah dan nyaman" ("Clean, beautiful and pleasant").

## Understand

Palopo is a city of some 185,000 inhabitants (2010) on the edge of the Gulf of Bone and at the foot of the Wallacea mountain ranges.
The city is also well-known in the area as the birthplace of one the world's longest literary works, La Galigo, the epic creation myth of the Bugis, a traditionally seafaring tribe native to South Sulawesi whose prowess as mariners, pirates, warriors and traders was feared and respected throughout Southeast Asia.

### History

Palopo used to be called Ware, as it was in La Galigo. The name "Palopo" is thought to have been in use since 1604, around the time when the Old Jami Mosque was constructed. The word "Palopo" is taken from two words in the Bugis-Luwu. The first denotes the sticky paste produced when brown sugar and water are mixed. The second means to insert pegs into a pole building. These two words explain the method of construction of the old mosque.

### Culture

The tribes that inhabit the area include the Bugis, Javanese, and Coastal Konjo tribe and much smaller numbers of Minangkabau, Batak, and Malays. Palopo has a Muslim majority. Protestantism, Catholicism, Hinduism, Buddhism and Confucianism are embraced by much smaller communities.

### Climate

Palopo has a tropical rainforest climate (Af) with heavy to very heavy rainfall year-round.

Just beyond the square are beautiful gardens and fountains with an open air theatre. Retaining much of its old charm with local crafts, souvenir shops and picturesque narrow streets, it is not unusual to come across fishermen quietly mending their nets in the shade of the vine-covered courtyards. A regular bus service runs along the coast from Paralimni to Protaras and then on to Ayia Napa.

## Sleep

If you are looking to get away from it all and relax with your family in privacy, than a holiday villa would be the ideal choice for you. By renting a private villa $^{[deadlink]}$ you will have your own kitchen, living/dining room, bedroom and in many cases your own private swimming pool. Renting a villa provides you, not only, with more space and privacy but is also a more economical option rather than staying at a small hotel room. A villa can usually accommodate a minimum of 4 people, and the rental price is charged per week making it more cost-effective than staying at a hotel.

This reserve receives support from The Nature Conservancy, USAID, Parks in Peril and Rumicocha Ecological Foundation. The reserve is high in the Andes - around 13,000 ft (4,000 m) - so it receives quite a bit of rain.
