We have discouraged our submitters in general from presenting palindromic phrases in these collections based primarily on geographic place-names. But, we recognize that many wordplay enthusiasts are keen to review geo-palindromes specifically (such as those about various canals). To view our large collection of such intriguing wordplay displayed on maps of the Americas, or the Old World", click HERE to get started, and just follow the links at the bottom of each post.
Since 2016 Giorgio Coniglio, registered pseudonym and editor-in-chief, has been bundling collections of POETRY, WORDPLAY and PHOTOGRAPHY, seasoned with humour and parody, with the sole aim of entertaining YOU with presentations at the rate of 5x per month. The related blog "DAILY ILLUSTRATED NONSENSE" sends out items from these collections one-at-a-time.

OCT 20 (2020), TOURISTS' PALINDROMIC GUIDE: The Americas #3
This post is a continuation of Tourists' Palindromic Guide: The Americas #1, and Tourists' Palindromic Guide: The Americas #2.
SATIRE COMPOSED: Giorgio Coniglio (registered pseudonym) and Dr.G.H., 2018.
WORDPLAY LINK: The panels showing palindromic phrases derived from geography of the Americas were originally displayed on Wordplay posts on this blog during the interval from October 2018 to February 2019. Geographically focused concoctions are among the many palindromic treasures honored and displayed on this site. Check out the list of entries for "The Palindrome Suite" in the slide at the bottom of the first post on this topic.
SONGLINK: Some readers will be delighted (others will continue to groan) at our collection of songs based on palindromic phrases -- click the link to the initial blogpost in this series to make these links available as well.
