Products similar to Reno



scenery, weather, fairly small

Lots to do, Great Shopping Facilities, 4 miles of beach Parts of the City are run down and grotty

Unique opportunity to view colourful petrified wood., A chance to wander in strange moon-like landscapes., As interesting as it is beautiful. Remote location means lots of driving.There are only basic services within the park and nearby.Much of the best wood was stolen a long time ago.

Friendly people, picturesque villages, good shopping. Can be less than scenic (industrial), not much nightlife.
