To me, the Bazylika Mariacka or Basilica of Mary was the highlight of Krakow's old town. This church is placed at one corner of the main square Rynek Glowny, facing the Sukiennice cloth hall.
The outside isn't that much spectacular, constructed of brick stone and with two towers that aren't of th…

In The Netherlands, Selexyz is a chain of 40 bookstores. Normally, the word ‘chain’ means average service, mainstream stock only and uninteresting ‘ten a penny’ stores. None of this is true for Selexyz. Although…, the thought of bookstore chains also brings scenes from the movie ‘You’v…

In my opinion, Westminster Abbey is a must see for a trip to London. It's just so cool! I guess it can depend on how much you are into history but I found it amazing to be where so many famous people throughout history have been before and to be standing at the tombs of some of Englands past Kings a…

To enter St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City, one of the key attractions in Rome, you must wear close-toed shoes. Men must wear long pants and women cannot wear mini-skirts or let their shoulders be showing too much.

Beaver Hollow is an overall amazing place. I came here to attend an executive retreat with my co-workers, and we absolutely had a wonderful time! With all their outdoor activities, like the ropes course, and the rock climbing wall, we definitey built on our team skills and had fun. The cabins/guest …

This church is located in Old Town, just 2 blocks away from Pza. Grande. As most of the churches in town it's from the Colony times and with baroque style.
From the outside it doesn't look that spectacular, besides of the domes which look gorgeous at night.
But once you go inside things are d…

+ Cheking out the arquitecture of the city while walking around
+ Fell down and roll over all the way down Rua da Escadinha (the most inclined …

Cathedral. Books do not indicate any original date of construction for the Igraje de Se except for some traces of history indicating the creation of a solid brick structure sometime in 1622 and some repairs made in 1743. During a major restoration of the Cathedral in 1780, its religious services wer…

Maybe one of the most famous squares in the world. I recommend to arrive there early in order to enjoy it without worrying of many people.
When you are in Rome, you have to take some time to go to Vatican City (which is inside Rome) and visit the famous San Pietro.
What can you do there?

Out of all the places I have been to in the Czech Republic, I would definitely say Český Krumlov is my new found favorite. As you walk through this town, you may remember it from the movie "The Illusionist" or "Hostel". This town hosts the beautiful Český Krumlov Castle, which is literally built…

I like Lvov. It is a mighty cuty. Old and modern, beautiful, magestic. When I am in Lvov I visit St. George's Cathedral (http://www.worldwalk.info/en/catalog/717/). It is a holy place. I feel energy there. I like it very much. My problems anf fears vanish there.

This is a very interesting place to visit - that is, if you don't mind feeling crowded. Despite how big it looks, it feels quite small inside with many passages narrow enough for just one person to pass through at a time. It's also quite dark, but using a flash with your cameras doesn't seem to be a…

Stave churches are medieval wooden buildings that could be seen as beautiful heritage from ancient centuries and reflect a valuable and rare style of architecture.
If you favour this special design you have to travel to Norway because almost all of the surviving stave churches exist there.

The pension is located in a former monastery. The rooms still typically look like monastry rooms with their architecture. It's situated downtown at the backsite of the church on Mendlovo manesti.

The Dominican church is a very beautiful, and rather big one, just a small stroll away from the Rynek Glowny. Seen from the outside it doesn't look very special, although the facade is a bit extraordinary shaped. Yet the inside is very spacious and light, with rather modern paintings, a small dome a…

Anny church isn't very big, but it does have a very nice interior. The walls are painted with light fresco like artwork, that contrasts highly with the dark baroque architecture of the building. The drawings are made so that they create deapts and relief that isn't really there. For me that was a st…

In my opinion, the Holy Cross is one of the nicer churches of Warsaw. Build in the late 17th century, to replace an old and small wooden chapel, this Roman Catholic building is probably most famous because the hearth of Chopin is kept here.
As almost every building in Warsaw this church was blown…

In Visby, there is a large wall that seperates one section of the city

century. But one of the things I really liked doing was finding the
ruins, as there are quite a lot of them inside. It's completely
