Stratford is a city on the Avon River in Perth County in southwestern Ontario, Canada, with a population of 30,886[1] as of 2011.
When the area was first settled by Europeans in 1832, the townsite and the river were named after Stratford-upon-Avon, England. It is the seat of Perth County. Stratford was incorporated as a town in 1859 and as a city in 1886.[4] The first mayor was John Corry Wilson Daly and the current mayor is Dan Mathieson. The swan has become a symbol of the city. Each year twenty-four white swans are released into the Avon River. The town is well known for being the home of the Stratford Shakespeare Festival.

Toruń is one of most attractive and historic towns in Poland.
It is famous for being the birthplace ( in 1474 ) of the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus whose epochal book, De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium is universally regarded as the starting point of modern astronomy.
In 1997 the old medieval quarter of Toruń comprising the Old Town ( 1233 ), the New Town ( 1264 ) and the Teutonic Knights Castle ( mid 13th c. ) was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site for having preserved almost intact its original medieval street layout. Toruń is full of Gothic monuments of architecture, all built of brick, such as the Town Hall, The Leaning Tower, numerous churches and many burgher houses around the central market square and the surrounding streets.
If you ever are in Gdańsk on the coast, I recommend driving down to Toruń - it's only 2hrs away on the motorway - the place has a great artistic atmosphere and a lively cafe scene.
Binghamton is a city in, and the county seat of, Broome County, New York, United States.[5] It lies in the state's Southern Tier region near the Pennsylvania border, in a bowl-shaped valley at the confluence of the Susquehanna and Chenango Rivers. Binghamton is the principal city and cultural center of the Binghamton metropolitan area (also known as Greater Binghamton, or historically the Triple Cities), home to a quarter million people.[2] The population of the city itself, according to the 2010 census, is 47,376.
From the days of the railroad, Binghamton was a transportation crossroads and a manufacturing center, and has been known at different times for the production of cigars, shoes, and computers.[7] IBM was founded nearby, and the flight simulator was invented in the city, leading to a notable concentration of electronics- and defense-oriented firms. This sustained economic prosperity earned Binghamton the moniker of the Valley of Opportunity.[8] However, following cuts made by defense firms after the end of the Cold War, the region has lost a significant portion of its manufacturing industry.

That was my first thought when I saw this area couple of years ago for the first time. ;)
Grafelijkheidsduinen - Noord Holland
The area was used to extract drinking water. When this stopped in 1982, a beautiful area with dune lakes arose. Now the area is managed by Landscape North Holland. In the part that is closed off, Highland cattle and Konik horses are kept. The walking and biking trails in the area are freely accessible.

At the temple grounds at the Shingon Buddhist temple Gokoku-ji in Tokyo. The temple dates back to 1681 and is quite uncommon in Tokyo to have survived up to the present day - through the Meiji restoration, the big Kanto earthquake and the World War II bombings.
It really is a quite lovely place to walk around, well worth a visit.
Un estilo un poco reto para acompañar hoy a la antena, jejeje.

Originally a medieval fortification, built by Magnus Ladulås at the end of the 13th century. It was here the Kalmar Union was formed in 1397. But today's castle took its form during the Renaissance, when it was improved in the 16th century by king Gustav Vasa (Gustav I) and his sons Erik XIV and Johan III and this is today one of the most well preserved Renaissance castles in Sweden (it was restored in the 19th century by Fredrik Wilhelm Scholander and Helgo Zettervall).

Fireworks on Pudong Avenue on the third day of the Chinese New Year festivities 2011.
The Chinese New Year does not last just one day as western New Year - the main festival lasts for three days, and it finally ends after two weeks, on the next full moon following the lunar new year day.

Reposted February 17, 2026 on the occasion of 春节 (Chinese New Year) 2026.
BTW: The flickr location database wrongly states Yangpu Qu instead of Pudong. Off by some kilometres...
