Could you do some research about the climate in one of the countries below and add it to the blog so we can compare the physical geography of different places?
Thanks!

In New York City i found out that Top of the rock is one of the famous building
Greenland: Greenland has a cold climate that usually doesn't go past 10 degrees Celsius. It is very similar to the climate in the Arctic.
Famous Landmark: Qaasuitsup: It is the oldest church(that's still standing) in all of Greenland, for it has been around since 1775.
Mexico: In Mexico, it is unbearably hot around the coast(on both sides of the country) and it is dry in the center. It last snowed almost 49 years ago, on January 12th, 1967. I doubt the snow stayed for very long though.
Landmark: El Tajin is a coast city. It is thought to be built between the 600-900 AD. It is surrounded by a jungle.

Cuba has a subtropical climate with the average tempreture of 25 degrees celcius in the winter and in the summer time the temreture is 31 degrees this means that if you like warm weather it is a lovely place all year round. A famous landmark is Old Havana. it is the second highest population density in the city.
