Disclaimer
Seclusion can be part of the charm of a peaceful place. Likewise, in some locations, the best time to visit is early morning, sunset, or even in the evening, when few other people are around. Please maintain awareness of your surroundings and practice caution at every destination described in this book, just as you would when venturing to any isolated or unfamiliar location. Please also note that prices, hours, public-transportation routes, and other information can change over time—so check online, call ahead, or write for confirmation when making your travel plans. Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information in this book, and its contents are believed to be correct at the time of printing. Nevertheless, the publisher accepts no responsibility for errors or omissions, for information that may change after publication, or for the consequences of relying on such information. Assessments of sites are based on the author’s own experience; therefore, descriptions given in this guide necessarily contain an element of subjective opinion, which may not reflect the publisher’s opinion or dictate a reader’s own experience on another occasion.
