Garden Islands
花园群岛
AZORES // Pico is the second-largest island in the Azores, with a unique topography defined by terraced hillside vineyards. These distinctive stone-walled lots are a Unesco World Heritage Site, rich with volcanic soil and densely planted with white Verdelho wine grapes. Fall marks the start of festival season here--capped in October by the annual food festival, where free-flowing Verdelho is served with local cheeses and charcuterie.
亚速尔群岛(AZORES) //皮科(Pico)是亚速尔群岛第二大岛屿，它拥有独特地形，以梯田状的葡萄园区为主。这些特色鲜明的石垒 是联合国教科文组织世界遗产(Unesco World Heritage Site) ，它们富含火山土，上面密集地种植着酿造华帝露(Verdelho)干白酒所需的葡萄。秋季标志着此地佳节的开始——10月份将举办一年一度的美食节，到时会提供自由畅饮的华帝露酒以及当地的奶酪和猪肉熟食。
ITALY // The Lake Region is best-known as the stomping ground of cinematic royalty. But Lake Como and Maggiore's real stars are the island gardens developed over centuries by the region's actual aristocracy. On Isola Bella, the Borromeo family has created a garden compound so fanciful it appears like a floating wedding cake. The nearby Villa Balbianello, set on a 12-hectare isthmus, pairs protected woods with meticulously tended gardens and elegant architecture.
意大利 // 湖区(Lake Region)作为影片中皇室的落脚点而闻名于世。但科莫湖(Lake Como)和马焦雷湖(Maggiore)真正的明星是几个世纪以来由这一地区真正的贵族打理形成的岛屿花园。在美丽岛(Isola Bella)上，博罗梅奥(Borromeo)家族已建立了一座梦幻的花园群区，它看起来就像一块漂浮的婚礼蛋糕。附近的巴比安内罗别墅(Villa Balbianello)坐落在12英亩（约合4.9公顷）的地峡上，它还坐拥起保护作用的树林、精心打理的花园与雅致的建筑。
SPAIN // It's easy to dismiss the Canary Islands as a package-tourism no man's land. But that would mean missing out on the archipelago's lush tropical landscapes and increasingly upscale waterfront resorts. Enjoy both at the Abama Golf and Resort ( abamahotelresort.com ), set on a cliff above a private slice of sandy shoreline. The 18-hole golf course is enlivened with over 25, 000 palm trees and hundreds of semitropical plants.
西班牙 // 人们容易将加那利群岛(Canary Islands)视为组团旅游项目中的一处无人区而不予考虑。但这意味着将错过这些群岛上繁茂的热带植被景观以及不断增长的高档海滨度假村。在阿巴马高尔夫度假酒店(Abama Golf and Resort, 网址：abamahotelresort.com)享受前述两种景观吧。该酒店坐落在沙滩海岸线私人片区的一处悬崖之上。25,000多颗棕榈树和成千上百种亚热带植物给这片18洞的高尔夫球场增添了生机。
Summer Sun
夏日阳光
TURKEY // The Aegean Riviera continues to rev up its boho bona fides as artists and designers join moguls and media makers along its crystalline coastline. The area's latest gathering spot is the hamlet of Alacati, near Izmir. This season's best beds are found at La Capria, a 20-room hotel with Moroccan-meets-Mediterranean furnishings and its own 25-meter gulet for island hopping in the late-summer sun. lacapriasuitehotel.com
土耳其 // 随着众多艺术家与设计师加入到滑雪行列、媒体制造商来到其水晶般清澈透明的海岸线，爱琴海里维埃拉(Riviera)的波西米亚风潮继续升温。该区最大的聚集地是伊兹密尔(Izmir)附近的小镇阿拉恰特(Alacati)。你能在拉卡普里亚(La Capria)酒店里找到这个季节中的最佳床铺。该酒店拥有20个房间，内配有融合了摩洛哥与地中海风情的家具，它还拥有自己25米高的帆船，这是为夏末阳光中的环岛游配备的。（网址：lacapriasuitehotel.com）
PORTUGAL // For centuries, the beach town of Cascais has lured both surfers and nobility to its sun-kissed shores, barely 45 minutes from Lisbon. Drenched in the stark Atlantic sun, the coastline is dotted with historic forts. Make like a soldier and head to the new 126-room Pousada de Cascais hotel, a converted 16th-century citadel that marries new-build rooms with a historic core--including a handful of guest rooms within the original barracks quarters. pousadas.pt
葡萄牙 // 几个世纪以来，海滨小镇卡斯凯什(Cascais)不断吸引着冲浪者与名流显贵来到其阳光热吻下的海岸，该地离里斯本只需45分钟车程。沐浴在大西洋耀眼的阳光中，这片海岸线遍布着诸多历史悠久的古堡。你要像战士一样前往这座拥有126个崭新房间的卡斯凯什古堡酒店(Pousada de Cascais)——这座16世纪的城堡经过翻修后将新建的房间与历史核心因素融为一体——包括建在原先兵营宿舍内的少数几间客房。（网址：pousadas.pt）
CYPRUS // The azure seas fronting the resort-town of Paphos are a world away from the island's cookie-cutter package hotels. Here, where Aphrodite is fabled to have journeyed and Roman governors later ruled, archaeology is as abundant as the bronze sandy beaches. With summer weather lasting well into fall, book a room at the Modernist Almyra Hotel, where whitewashed villa suites include private rooftop decks. almyra.com
塞浦路斯 // 度假小镇帕福斯(Paphos)前方的碧海是远离该岛上千篇一律酒店的另一个世界。传说爱和美的女神阿芙罗狄(Aphrodite)曾到过这里。后来，该地由罗马官员统治，所以这里的古迹多得就像古铜色的沙滩一样。由于夏季的天气会很好地延续到秋季，你就在现代主义雅尔蜜拉酒店(Modernist Almyra Hotel)预定一间房吧，这里刷得雪白的别墅套房配有私人屋顶甲板。（网址：almyra.com）
