Samurai Castle Matsue


Samurai Castle 1
 
Today our destination is a real Samurai Castle!
As the main building material of that time was wood such constructions were always in danger of fire. Matsue Castle was built after the Japanese feudal wars so it never was used during battles as a defensive base though it had been built exactly with this purpose.

Tea Making In Sri Lanka


Tea is the trademark of Sri Lanka. About 10% of the world produced tea is made here. More than half a million people work on plantations. Practically all the tea produced here is exported. Plantations of the famous Ceylon tea are also located in Sri Lanka.
Row materials for tea are leaves of tea bushes.Tea growing requires the warm and damp climate. The tea picking  in Sri Lanka is made four times in a year, but the most valuable tea is picked during the first time.

Tales of The Crypt


The creepier a story is the more it impresses kids. You will get added evidence to it if you visit this Celtic feast in The French Disneyland.

Tramway Museum In Porto


There is the tramways museum in Porto and its exhibits are in very good conditions, so you can easily sit on some coaches or even go for a ride in one of tramways.

Paradise Terraces of Bali


There is much interesting to see in Bali, but today we'll show you only the rice terraces, the absolutely must-see thing there. They are especially beautiful on panoramas. Hold your breath and see...
Here is a nice place to live after death, and a bit before it...






The Brain of Berlin


This is not the first cool library we write about. But there is some majic in these awesome buildings breathing with history, clever thoughts, sciences... It's something nearly sacred you always want to touch.

"The Brain of Berlin" — that is how an English architect sir Norman Foster called a new philological library of the Free University of Berlin in 2005. The building resembles a huge glass egg put on one side. It is actually hollow inside, and the storeys are made by four tiers of undulating galleries whose pattern looks like brain convolutions.

Sands of Qalansiya Beach


Qalansiya Beach 1
This awesome Qalansiya Beach is a place in Yemen.
Even if you are not under the sun of Qalansiya, simple looking at the photos of this beach is pacifying.
