Travelogue may refer to:
A travel documentary is a documentary film, television program or online series that describes travel in general or tourist attractions without recommending particular package deals or tour operators. A travelogue film is an early type of travel documentary, serving as an exploratory ethnographic film.
In the past, the genre was represented by television shows, such as Across the Seven Seas, showcasing travelogues produced by third parties, and occasional itinerant presentations of travelogues in theaters and other venues. "Shock" travelogues, such as Mondo cane (1962), also enjoyed a certain following.
The British comedian and actor Michael Palin has made several series in this genre beginning with Michael Palin: Around the World in 80 Days (1989). PBS has several travel shows including those hosted by Rick Steves and Burt Wolf.
Travelogues were used to provide the general public with a means of observing different countries and cultures since the late 19th century. Travelogues are considered to be a form of virtual tourism or travel documentary and were often presented as lectures narrating accompanying films and photos. Travelogues are defined as nonfiction films that use a place as their primary subject. They often display the cinematic apparatus and have an open narration.
Travelogue is the debut album of Danish rock band Kashmir. It was released in 1994.
Pouring up the wine from yesterday
It tastes the same today
Awakes the lynx in me
Songs have often drawn me by their tales
An urge to set the sails
And go beyond the whales
Gathering the best in everything
And all the places where I used to go
Wondering still not wandering
A cowards heart refuses me to know
Swallowing a journey from a glass
Dividing emptiness and wine becomes a gas
All I have is what I need to give
In songs I breathe and live
The source will never leave
Gathering the best in everything....
In this travelogue I went nowhere
But my brain was always in the air....out somewhere
Since the day I heard the dring I never left my chair
I never left my chair... I never left my chair.....
All I ever wanted was to swim and drown my fear of swimming...(and the water)
And on the other side to find the peace of soul and mind and you and I
A tickle in my nose of distant hills, beneath the crows upon the blue, I want to go
