This is reflected by the author as he says “No one needs me to tell them about Florence, or Dresden, or Prague, or New York; or, indeed, a hundred other cities in Europe or the Americas. Any Lonely Planet guide will tell you how to get around them and how to make the most of them [sitting in the second-largest square with a good cup of coffee is usually the answer to the last one]. Indeed I shan 't - with an important exception - be much interested in cities at all. I like wilderness and the people who live in it, and I want to convince you that, despite appearances, there are good reasons to visit it.” As it can be seen from the quote, the author is interested in exploring cultures that are hidden, that not get as much exposure. Just like the author, we too should travel to these distant places and explore their heritage because they have the potential to teach us things we have never known
