View of the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy
The leading tower of Pisa, also known as the Tower of Pisa, is a free standing bell tower next to the Church of the Italian city of Pisa. The Tower is located behind the church and is said to be the third oldest structure in Pisa. The tower was made to stand straight, however immediately after it was constructed, it started leaning towards the south east due to a weekly laid foundation and substrate that allows the foundation to change direction.
The total height of the tower is 186.27 feet from the ground towards the lower side and 186.02 feet on the higher side. Its width from the bottom is measured 13 plus feet and 8 plus feet from the top. The Towers total weight is 14,500 metric tons and has 296/294 steps.
The Tower Of Pisa was made over a period of 177 years in three different sections. The first floor was constructed in the year 1173 and it was in the year 1178 when the tower had the thirds floor, when the tower started to sink. The reason was that a three meter foundation had used unbalanced soil, which actually means that the design was flawed right from the beginning. Then the construction was halted for almost a century as the city was in continuous war and in the mean while, the soil got the time to settle in, else the tower was for sure to topple over. The tower also has a clock that was installed on the third floor.

The landscape was formed by the erosion of the volcanic soil which over the centuries created bizzare conical hills in a range of colours – yellow, violet, red and pink.

People have carved dwellings in the rocks for centuries which, because of their thick walls, are cool in summer and warm in winter.

The artists like Courbet, Degas and Matisse drew it, Victor Hugo loved it, and Guy the Maupassant lived it.
Even today it’s a popular summer resort, but only in winter times it gets to being the beautiful quiet place with the sweeping promenade and the empty beach for the solitary walker.

You can climb a path to the western cliff – the Falaise d’Aval, formed into an arch, from which you can enjoy the magnificent view of the sea and the rock formations including “The needle” – l’aguille, which rises from the water up to a height of 700m (2300ft).
On the eastern cliff – the Falaise d’Amont there is a chapel, a museum and a statue dedicated to the two French aviators who made the first attempt to travel the Atlatic, and were lost off the coast.
During the low tide you can walk through the rock arches from one beach to another.

The two of the world’s most beautiful fjords – Geirangerfjord and Naeroyfjord, located in South-west Norway are often proclaimed as Norway’s natural wonders. They happen to be among the world’s longest and deepest fjords, and were formed about 1 000 000 years ago by glaciers carving their way down the mountains.

They lie approximately 120km (75mi) apart from each other north-east of the city of Bergen.
The Geirangerfjord is about 16km (10mi) long. The water inside being saline prevents freezing during the winter period. There is practically no tide so the water is still and reflecting the sky and 2000m (6600ft) mountain walls on each side of it. While sailing with a cruise ship you can enjoy the astonishing waterfalls and abandoned farms scattered on the mountains.
The Naeroyfjord is said to be the narrowest in the world being less than 250m (820ft) wide at a certain point, but still having huge mountain walls of more than 1500m (4900ft) from each side.
During the winter months, the sun never reaches the bottom of the fjord.

WHAT TO SEE THERE
Take a trip down the fjords, and look out for seals lying on the rocks. Among these two fjords visit the Sogne fjord, the Flam Railway and Stalheimskleiva.

The capital of Malta and a World Heritage site, can easily be described with the term “open-air museum”. It is a living historical architecture monument, donated by its former inhabitants.

It was ruled successively by the Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs and the Order of the Knights of St John. Valletta’s 320 monuments, all within an area of 55 ha, make it one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world.
Throughout the years, Valletta has welcomed emperors, heads of state, artists and poets and is now the permanent seat of the Maltese government.
Dotted with quaint cafés and wine bars, the city is today one of Malta’s main tourist attractions, hosting among others, the majestic St John’s Co- Cathedral, the imposing bastions and a treasure of priceless paintings.

It also provides a stunning snapshot of Malta’s Grand Harbour, often described as the most beautiful one in the Mediterranean. The city’s unique setting nowadays plays host to a series of cultural events, from theatre in English, to concerts by leading opera singers.
A hive of business activity during the day, the city switches to a slower gear for the night. Use it to your advantage to get away from the noise and take a stroll to admire the magic of the fortified capital amplified by the gentle lighting. Admire the bastion walls, the dense clusters of worn limestone buildings, the timber balconies, and imposing Churches.

Huacachina is a small town – oasis, 5km from Ica, in southwestern Peru. The town is built around the small lake and otherwise completely sorrounded by desert.
It is an extraordinary settlement complete with palm groves, neatly clipped lawns, cafes and a population of over 100 people. It serves as a resort for the local Ica’s families and is an everyday increasing attraction for tourists that come sandboarding on the nearby dunes.
The small town has restaurants and cafes, and also places to spend the night. Today you can swim and relax in the same place which over thousands of years saved hundreds of lives of weary travellers staggering in from the heath with their mules.
The local legends says that the oasis was created when the beautiful native princess was surprised at her bath by a young hunter. She fled away from him, leaving the pool to become the lagoon. The folds of her mantle, streaming behind her became the surrounding dunes, and the princess herself is said to live still today in the oasis as a mermaid.
