##  Adirondack Mountains, New York, USA

Some places are just dots on the map, but the town of Saranac Lake, in the Adirondack Mountains of New York, United States, is a destination that conquers in any season. Although its name may be misleading, it is not located in the Saranac Lakes, but in Flower Lake, a broad section of the Saranac River.  
  
For centuries, this region, known as "the capital of the Adirondacks," was utilized by indigenous peoples for hunting and travel. Later, at the end of the nineteenth century, it gained fame as a health center thanks to Dr. Edward Livingston Trudeau, a pioneer in the outdoor treatment of tuberculosis. Today, the priest's huts from that time are still preserved.  
  
Today, Saranac Lake has evolved from a place that cures diseases to one that cures boredom. Visitors can paddle its waters, tour the High Peaks, go skiing or ice fishing, and enjoy a lively cultural scene with galleries, music, and festivals. The Winter Carnival is its greatest attraction, featuring an ice palace that resembles something out of a fairy tale. And, although there are also natural ice palaces in the Pyrenees in Spain, in Saranac Lake, they build one every winter to celebrate the arrival of the cold.
