The field report.
Reviewed 29 October 2026. 258 of 258 destinations have a locally stored, source-checked photograph. These 258 files have distinct Commons sources and distinct SHA-256 hashes. Perceptual comparison found no duplicate candidates.
What was checked
Each published photograph was viewed and compared with the Commons description, destination identity and country. Photographer credits were checked against file metadata and descriptions rather than assuming the uploader took the photo. Licenses include CC BY, CC BY-SA, CC0, public-domain photographs and an attribution-only free-use grant. Exact license versions, source pages, capture dates where available, and local file checksums are in the credits.
Published files are Commons-generated raster thumbnails downloaded without additional pixel edits. Page layouts may crop the displayed view. Some source images are panoramas or were edited by their original authors; their file pages document those changes. Historical images are not representations of live conditions.
Second photo review
All 258 source file pages, licenses, source image hashes and local files were checked again. A modern-building rights warning led to replacing the Dubai Downtown and Louvre Abu Dhabi entries with Al Fahidi Fort and Qasr Al Hosn, with corresponding guide text and source updates. See the recheck report.
Travel review scope
All 258 English introductions have been checked for destination identity and basic geographic or heritage facts against linked references. Seasonal context was reviewed against 47 country travel references and additional regional references where seasons differ, including Raja Ampat, Koh Samui and Tortuguero.
Suggested months and visit lengths are editorial planning advice. They are not official guarantees. Live opening hours, current ticket availability, permit procedures, weather, entry eligibility and safety conditions require a fresh check before travel. No real-world itinerary or on-location inspection was performed.

Hostinger deployment itself has not been performed. The included files are a plain static website; upload instructions are in README_HOSTINGER.txt. Every listed destination now has its own reviewed local photograph.
