  1. On 24 January 1848 James W. Marshall found shiny metal in the tailrace of a lumber mill he was building for the Sacramento pioneer John Sutter. That small find set off the Gold Rush. Today the site is a state historic park. A statue of Marshall stands on a monument on the hill, pointing to the spot where he made his discovery, and the Gold Discovery Museum shows mining equipment, horse-drawn vehicles and household implements from the period.

  2. Four days later, on 28 January 1848, Marshall met privately with Sutter inside the fort's adobe main building and showed him the gold. Tests confirmed it, and Sutter expressed dismay: he wanted the news kept quiet. He was right to worry. His workers left in search of gold, and squatters took over his land and stole his crops and cattle. The two-story adobe is the only original structure in the reconstructed state historic park.

  3. The secret did not hold. In San Francisco the newspaper publisher and merchant Sam Brannan set up a store to sell prospecting supplies, bought pans for 20 cents and resold them for $15. On 11 May 1848 he showed his gold to a crowd at the plaza, and walked through the streets holding aloft a vial and shouting "Gold! Gold! Gold from the American River!" The town of about 1,000 people grew to 25,000 full-time residents by 1850. Portsmouth Square, the old Plaza de Yerba Buena, was its first public square and is a park today.

  4. Miners first called this camp Dry Diggin's, after the way they moved cartloads of dry soil to wash out gold. Later in 1849 it earned the name Hangtown, after numerous hangings. In one case, three wanted men were hanged on an oak tree on Main Street by a mob, without any trial. The town took the name Placerville in 1854, when it was incorporated. Gold Bug Park & Mine is now a museum with tours.

  5. John Walker found gold here on 27 March 1850, in one of the richest finds of the Gold Rush. Over the next years a network of water supply aqueducts, costing over $1 million, was built to support the mining. A boomtown grew, with a population between 2,000 and 5,000 in the 1850s. Today the old town is a state historic park run as an inhabited, working open-air museum, where people in period costume run a candy store and a daguerreotype studio.

The Maya Cities: Palenque to Chichén Itzá

Palenque, Tikal, Copán and Chichén Itzá are four great Maya cities, from the jungle of Chiapas to the plains of Yucatán. Their kings built tombs, pyramids and monuments that archaeologists have read and dug out of the forest. This route follows them in time, from Pakal's tomb in 683 to the capture of Copán's king in 738 and on to the pyramid and Sacred Cenote of Chichén Itzá. Pins at Tikal and Copán mark the whole site.

Admiral Yi Sun-sin: The Imjin War at Sea

Admiral Yi Sun-sin fought Japan's invasion fleets in 1592–1598 along Korea's south coast, from his base at Yeosu to Okpo, Hansan Island, the Myeongnyang Strait and the Noryang Strait, where he died in the last major battle. The route follows five places in order: the headquarters, the first victory, the crane-wing trap, the strait where 13 ships faced a far larger fleet, and the final night. Several pins mark waters or harbours rather than exact battle spots.

The Buddha's Life: Lumbini to Kushinagar

The Buddha's story, as Buddhist tradition tells it, runs from Lumbini in Nepal, where he was born, through Bodh Gaya, Sarnath and Jetavana to Kushinagar, where he died. Each of these places can be visited today. The route follows five stops in life order: birth, enlightenment under the Bodhi Tree, the first teaching at Sarnath, the monastery at Savatthi and the parinirvana. The dates are traditional; the accounts come from Buddhist scriptures and legends.
