A Partially Divulged Secret

There is one place in the world I've decided not to write about. It's got precious few tourists, and the locals I talked to during my visit seemed to be pretty happy about this fact. Why does this gorgeous sliver of the world get so little attention? It's not far from areas with much bigger streams of tourist traffic. Its propinquity to such areas—and the minor hassle involved in getting there—means that few tourists make the effort.

I've read descriptions of the place that downplay its beauty, making me wonder if this game is a collective endeavor and not merely my own weird little thing.

I visited once. I don't know if I'll ever return.
