The most popular park in Central New York is Onondaga Lake park, which draws over one million visitors annually. The park features several trails, a skate park, a playground, fishing, a dog park, a marina and boat launch, archery targets and more. Visitors from the end of November to the beginning of January can tour the 'Lights on the Lake,' an annual holiday lighting festival.

Despite its name, this isn’t just a cemetery — it’s a vast neighbourhood where thousands of people live alongside mausoleums and tombs. The 'City of the Dead' refers to the large burial grounds, but it’s very much alive, with families building rooms next to graves that have become permanent homes. Markets, mosques, and everyday streets thread through the area, offering a side of Cairo you won’t find anywhere else.

The so-called Temple of Hercules (AD 162–166) dominates Amman’s Citadel. These days, archaeologists prefer to call it the Great Temple of Amman, since its dedication remains uncertain. Only six Corinthian columns stand reconstructed today. The rest lie as fragmented drums, their dowel holes revealing Roman engineering techniques. A colossal marble statue once graced the site. All that survives is a weathered elbow and fingers, suggesting a figure over 13 metres tall, likely toppled in the 8th-century earthquake. The temple’s platform doubles as Amman’s premier viewpoint, framing the modern city against the 150-metre Jordanian flag. Excavations nearby expose layers of civilisation: Umayyad palaces, Byzantine churches, and Roman baths intertwine with older Bronze Age ruins. Though the Hercules name persists thanks to the sculptural remnant, archaeologists emphasise the temple’s civic importance. Its sheer scale reflects Amman’s status as a regional hub. Guides prove invaluable for deciphering 9,000 years of history compressed into a single hilltop.
