Lapho nje ‘seyikomkhulu lemithi’ yomhlaba wonke, baletha umbono oqinile wokongiwa komsebenzi wethu.”
I-Bangor, "i-Queen City" yaseMaine, itholakala osebeni olusentshonalanga yoMfula iPenobscot. Ukuba seduze komfula kwenza i-Bangor yaba “inhloko-dolobha yamapulangwe emhlabeni wonke” ingxenye enkulu yekhulu le-19. I-Bangor iyidolobha lesithathu ngobukhulu esifundazweni kanye nesikhungo sokudayisa, samasiko kanye nesesevisi enkabeni, empumalanga, nasenyakatho yeMaine, kanye ne-Atlantic Canada.
I-Bangor inendawo enomlando namasiko ecebile futhi ehlukahlukene - u-Hannibal Hamlin, iPhini Likamongameli lokuqala lika-Abraham Lincoln, wazalelwa futhi wahlala lapho, futhi umbhali odayisa kakhulu, uStephen King, usahlala edolobheni. I-Bangor futhi iyikhaya kwelinye lama-orchestra amadala e-symphony aseMelika kanye nendawo yokudlala yaseMaine kuphela. Njengendlela “Yesango Eliya e-More of Maine,” i-Bangor iyindlela elula yokuya ezifundeni ezine ze-Maine ezinhle kakhulu: I-Aroostook County, i-Down East ne-Acadia, i-Maine Highlands, ne-Mid-Coast yaseMaine. Lezi zifunda zinikeza izivakashi ithuba lokuhlola ezinye zezindawo ezikhangayo ezaziwa kakhulu e-Maine. Kusukela ekubukeni imikhomo kuya ekuzokudoba endizeni, ukugibela izintaba, ukuhamba ngebhayisikili kanye ne-kayaking, imikhosi nemibukiso, uthola okuthi "More of Maine" e-Bangor.
Isifunda sase-Maine Highlands sihlanganisa isifunda sase-Greater Bangor, i-Moosehead Lake, indawo ye-Katahdin, nakho konke okuphakathi. Kuyizwe lezinto ezinhle kakhulu, eziqhayisa ngentaba ephakeme kunazo zonke esifundazweni, umfula omude kunawo wonke, ichibi elikhulu kunawo wonke lamanzi ahlanzekile (empumalanga yeMississippi), "iGrand Canyon yaseMaine," kanye nedolobha lesithathu ngobukhulu. I-Bangor nayo iyimizuzu engama-90 ukusuka esifundeni sezokuvakasha sase-Down East kanye ne-Acadia, ikhaya le-Acadia National Park kanye ne-Bar Harbour. Kulesi sifunda kunezindawo zokukhanyisela izibani ezingu-24 namadolobhana amaningi asogwini anikeza ugu lwaseMaine oluhle kakhulu kanye nohambo lwangaphandle.
“I-Greater Bangor Convention & Visitors Bureau (GBCVB) ijabule kakhulu futhi ibheke ngabomvu ukuba yingxenye yale nhlangano emazingeni aphansi, i-ICTP, ethuthukisa amathuba okuya ‘aluhlaza’ ‘naluhlaza’; I-Bangor kanye nesifunda sase-Maine ziyikhaya lezinye zezindawo ezibaluleke kakhulu zokungcebeleka zomhlaba nolwandle ezweni. Thina, lapha kwa-GBCVB nangaphakathi kwesifunda saseMaine, sizinikele kakhulu ekunikezeni isevisi yamakhasimende esezingeni; umbuso uze usingathe ukuqeqeshwa okuku-inthanethi kwekhwalithi yamahhala, etholakala kunoma ubani kanye nawo wonke umuntu othintana nesivakashi noma wendawo ngokufanayo. Le ndawo inezigigaba ezisimeme ze-eco-tourism esibheke ngabomvu ukuzithuthukisa nge-ICPT.”
