Gediminas' Tower

When I think of something to visit in Lithuania, I think of the Gediminas' Tower. It has so much history hidden in and around it. When on top of the tower a beautiful panorama of Vilnius opens up, where you can see the magnificent church towers and the well known Old Town.

Poland

The most beautiful aspect of Poland for me is the nature; the vast difference in geographical locations results in many beautiful sceneries, from the sea down to the mountains. The national parks scattered all over Poland are a wonderful reserve of the natural world that influences our culture so much.

Semana Santa in Málaga, Spain

2024-03-03 11:32:55 UTC

Semana Santa, or Holy Week, in Málaga is one of the most significant and vibrant religious festivals in Spain. It is a deeply rooted tradition that commemorates the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, celebrated in the week leading up to Easter Sunday.

Semana Santa in Málaga features elaborate processions with ornate floats depicting scenes from the Passion, carried by "costaleros." Religious brotherhoods called cofradías organize these processions, enhancing the solemn atmosphere with traditional robes and hoods. The streets buzz with locals and visitors, creating a lively mix of reverence and cultural celebration. Special religious services are held in churches, offering opportunities for reflection. Traditional dishes like torrijas are enjoyed during the festivities. This rich cultural experience blends religious devotion and community celebration, and attracts thousand of visitors and locals every year.

Semana Santa does not only occur in Mañaga, but throughout the whole country. Whoever, if I had to choose Malaga and Seville would definately be in my top tier - especially Malaga, but I may be a bit biased towards that.

It is a really unique experince which I would recommend who anyone visiting Spain!

Nacionalni park Kornati

2024-04-22 15:14:06 UTC

Driven by its exceptional natural beauty, tourism on the Kornati archipelago dates from the 1970s and is the chief economic activity underpinning the life of the small islander communities. As a result, however, of a dearth of dialogue and cooperation with key local stakeholders (property owners, units of local and regional self-government, tourist boards and agencies, manufacturers and purveyors of goods and services, the civil sector etc.), tourism is haphazard and uncoordinated, having on the one side public institutions that manage the Kornati archipelago and, on the other, property owners and users in protected areas whose existence is "threatened" by protection. This gulf between the administration and the local stakeholders is also reflected in the satisfaction of visitors and their perception of this jewel of the Mediterranean!

The Church of St. Donatus is an amazing church from the 9^th century, a sightseeing must and the largest pre-Romanesque structure in Croatia! It's 27 m high and 22 m wide, has a specific cylindrical shape, a double interior and it stands out with its originality. Today, it mostly serves as a remarkable venue for medieval renaissance music. The whole structure is an architectural example of the Carolingian period and it is considered the most significant of its kind in Europe.

Representing a tradition that has been passed on for generations and served typically at weddings was made to wish the newlyweds a prosperous marriage. The importance of having certain foods at your wedding is still passed on in many places.

Today this delicious cake is prepared from the whites and yolks of local eggs which have been carefully separated and mixed separately. Into the beaten yolks are added sugar and honey, the grated peels of a lemon and orange, a spoonful of rum or liqueur of rose or vanilla, and then gradually added to the mixture are finely ground walnuts and almonds.
