Places that should be visited
« on: Oct 21^st, 2004, 8:32am »

In case you guys are wondering, I am this laid-back 14-year-old guy from Southeast Asia. It is the country where John Vito&Jill were eliminated( also where Ian said that he wore disposable underwear)

Anyone from this region??

There are several countries that TAR should have visited, namely:

Japan (but too expensive)
Senegal
Peru
Venezuela
Panama
The Carribean Islands
Spain

And maybe some cities:
Toronto
Washington DC (can test on american history & presidents)
Berlin
Montreal
Sao Paulo
Perth
Dublin

And maybe more of:
LA
NYC
Honolulu

Sounds gd?

I would love to see them go to Japan, but like you said, It's way too expensive. Grin

But please, no more India, they go there way too much. It's like CBS producers love seeing women groped or something. Shocked

I think the Indian men were sick and disgusting for groping women who have male partners already. Aren't there enough women in their country.

I would also like to suggest China, because there is a lot to do and see.

I agree w/ D.C.

(i live in the area)

good clue/finish points for D.C.:
Washington Monument(great backdrop w/ capital, but may be risky--its on a hill about 100 ft out is open area)
WWII Memorial(fountain is MAGNIFICENT!!!!!! pillars can hide teams/cameras/sound production/mat/clue box)
Lincoln Memorial or Jefferson Memorial(easy to close off for security great finish spot)
subway station(we call it Metro) for clue box (funny to watch teams get confused(which is very easy might i add), can take Metro to another destination)
Places in the area
Tysons Corner Mall(HUGE!!! one of the biggest malls in the world, i think--they used it in the movie FIRST KID)
Mount Vernon(home of George Washington)

well.. i'd love to see them go to...

1. Acropolis in Greece
2. Vatican City or Rome
3. Angkor Wat in Cambodia or Borubodur of Myanmar
4. Ulaanbaataar, Mongolia
5. Denmark or Netherlands
6. Turkey
7. Cebu or Davao in the Philippines
8. Taipei
9. China (Beijing, Shanghai)
10. Jerusalem or Mecca (but I doubt due to security issues)
11. Jamaica, Cuba or Puerto Rico
12. Spain or Portugal

and yeah please no India... also it seems from the first episode, it seems that they don't have any South American countries this season huh.. since they now gone to a European country already....

I read a novel series and its main location is Washington D.C. I think I would love to see it featured in TAR. But I think the city has many people which will make it harder for the teams to Race (since they will be noticed).

And yes, more of South America! Maybe they can do Chile, then straight to Antartica!

portugal, netherlands and beijing have been featured, but they can always be revisited.

Borobudur is in Indonesia. Maybe that should be visited.

JP said about Antarctica. It's probably too cold and people go in tours so they don't damage the environment. Racing around protected places is not ideal. However, 2 thumbs up for Antarctica!! Cool

That would be the 7th continent.

ohh.. ok.. wrong country... I always thought Borubudur is in Myanmar... Undecided

anyways... i doubt they'd go to Antartica, since only special chartered flights go there... and there is not much to see on Antartica except for ice, ice and ice... and you can see these on other northern hemisphere countries...

There are so many places that the amazing race should hit up

How bout this-

1. Boston- Havana, Cuba
2. Havana- Iquitos, Peru
3. Iquitos-Cuzco, Peru
4. Cuzco-Fiji
5. Fiji-Ankor Wat, Cambodia
6. Ankor Wat- Shanghai
7. Shanghai- Ulaanbaatur, Mongolia
8. Ulaanbaatur-Kathmandu, Nepal
9. Kathmandu- Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
10.Addis Ababa-Istanbul, Turkey
11. Istanbul- Bucharest, Romania
12. Bucharest- Lagos, Nigeria
13. Lagos- Boston

haha yeah, juss thinkin... But those are some cool places that have never been visited. Esp. Latin American countries, only three seasons have gone to central and south america. Also a lot of eastern Europe has been ignored, as well as west africa. I agree that Indias getting kinda old, but theres so many cool places in that country. Instead of india theres also Nepal and Bangladesh which are also interesting countries if the viewers are demanding a change.
