2-3 Hours In Milan?


What can you see in Milan having only 2-3 hours? There are many interesting and less-visited places there. But these ones may become of top priority...
The first one appears to be Castello Forzesco - a castle that somehow resembles the Kremlin of Moscow, and no wonder, the authors of two wonderful constructions are the same.
But remember the situation with parking a car is hard in Milan.

The Place Where the Best Wine Lives!



Montalcino is the native land of wonderful wine - Brunello di Montalcino. The city is beautiful, not even beautiful, but stunning! Valleys of the hills impress indeed, maybe you know that the landscapes of Toskana are in the list of the UNESCO cultural heritage. And they do desrve it, when you look at this you hardly can take your breath and start thinking that a man has created nature, cause everything around is manmade here!
The center is full of collections of vintage wines. You may taste the best wine of various years and purchase some bottle to enjoy it in the best days of your life. Why can you buy much there? 15 dollars for a bottle is not that much! Happy indeed are those people who live here!

Fantastic Subway of Stockholm


Citizens of Stockholm must be happy just entering their subway every day. If you find yourself there it seems you become a character of some fairytale or appear in some museum.

Iceland: The Place Where Virgin Nature Lives


Iceland or the Republic of Iceland is a European island country in the Atlantic ocean. The beauty of virgin nature in these places impresses everybody. Usually the weather here is rather chilly and the cold, strong, icy wind blows around hills, volcanoes and glaciers.
The Vik village is the most southern settlement in Iceland. The waterfall Skogafoss is located near the village. A strong dazzling white storm often rages here on black sands.
The waterfall Seljalandsfoss has a way in it through which one can pass this waterfall. 
The park Lakagigar is an accumulation of volcano craters. This rift was formed because of the eruption of the volcano Laki in 1783, when about 20000 people died.
The waterfall Godofoss.
The cape Latrabjarg has the biggest colony of birds.
The waterfall Dynjandi is probably one of the most beautiful nature creations. Clean streams flow down the slopes playing with all rainbow colors.

Sossusvlei and The Dead Valley: Highest Dunes In the World


Sossusvlei (means "the place fro water collecting") is the salt and clay plateau in the territory of the national park Namib Naukluft, Namibia. Only sometimes, when it rains, here appear the river Tsauchad and lakes that are usually dry.
Shadows of camel'-thorns save from the broiling sun. The temperature here can reach 50 °C.

Little Village In a Big Busy City


Bustle of the night life against hopelessness of days; perfect strict lines against soft and smooth; concrete, glass, striped asphalt highway against old buildings, mansions, green squares and parks; cool ceramic tiling of the west against panel skyscrapers of the east... Yes, Berlin - the city of contrasts. 
Angerdorf (or simply Dorf Marzahn) with its peasant yards, wind mills, a church and a village kindergarten is like an oasis in the desert of panel houses and noisy crossroads... 

Picturesque Painted Hills, USA


Have you ever thought about why virtually all American parks and reserves have roads? No, it's not because of Americans' laziness. This is usually because of their large areas and the fact that everyone (even the disabled) could come here and see all this beauty with his own eyes.
Most of the hills are clay-red but you can also see yellow and green.
The structure of the hills resembles the cracked after a severe drought soil.
Color transitions are quite contrasting and very bright!
Most of the hills are fenced.
All the routes are accompanied by signs!
Yellow hills.
Some of the hills are covered with strange white fragments resembling shell.
The soil is very fertile despite the fact that it seems to be dry.
Looks like a juniper.
Mountains in the distance seem to have the volcanic base.
On the road.
It seems amazing that something grows in such clay.
Curious that the hills do not lose their color even though after each rain water flushes the breed and color away.
Roads among the red hills.
Here it really seems that you're on the Mars.
From the other side of the red hill.
All sorts of beautiful flowers grow in the cracked soil. .
Having gone down to the parking lot and covered a few hundreds of meters you find yourself near these hills.
They are perhaps the most beautiful and picturesque.
Amazingly beautiful.
Somebody admiring them.
Some places seem to be the dried bottom of the sea.
Not far away from the hills one can see wigwams.
And different formations.
Of different colors.
