Dubrovnik is one of the most prominent tourist destinations in the Mediterranean Sea, a seaport on the Dalmation coast. In 1979, the city of Dubrovnik joined the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. Although Dubrovnik was demilitarised in the 1970s to protect it in case of war, in 1991, after the breakup of Yugoslavia, it was besieged by the Serb and Montenegrin soldiers gathered in the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) for seven months and suffered significant damage from shelling. After the war all damage was repaired in original style.

Location: Khao Yai National Park, Pak Chong, Korat, Nakorn Ratchasima (อุทยานแห่งชาติเขาใหญ่, ปากช่อง, โคราช, นครราชสีมา)
It’s a long weekend this week so we spent a day in Khao Yai National Park. I met this group of birdwatchers shooting and filming ‘great hornbills’. Khao Yai, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the oldest and one of the country’s largest parks which is located only a few hours drive from Bangkok or Pathum Thani. This park is home to some 300 or more migrants and residents species of birds. It is a large open grassland in the centre which offer great opportunities for observing birds that frequent the forest edge.
I had a chance to talk to one of the birdwatchers. He showed me the stunning photos taken from his massive telephoto lens which is common for wildlife birdwatchers. I think birdwatching is important as they provide huge amount of data to conservation researchers. Also, it provides an intimate connection between people and our natural environment which will lead to better protection of our wildlife.

Valparaíso is a port city on Chile’s Pacific coast. It's known for its steep funiculars and colorful, clifftop homes. La Sebastiana, the quirky former residence of Chilean poet Pablo Neruda, is now a museum with far-reaching Pacific views. During the 19th century, an influx of European immigrants left their mark on the city’s architecture and cultural institutions, many of which congregate around downtown’s Plaza Sotomayor.

Les moulins de Kinderdijk ont été construits pour garder les terres basses de l'Alblasserwaard au sec. Disposés l’un en face de l'autre, ils forment une image emblématique de la Hollande. De plus, vous pourrez voir de nombreux cours d’eau, des digues et des écluses et découvrir comment les hollandais utilisent depuis plus de 1 000 ans toute cette eau à leur avantage.
Wir haben eine spontane Führung gemacht. Absolut empfehlenswert, denn man kommt in Bereiche wo man sonst keinen Zutritt für bekommt. Wir werden zurückkommen um uns den Rest an zu sehen evt. eine Führung für Fotografen zu machen, vielleicht bei Nacht.

The Basílica i Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família English: Basilica and Expiatory Church of the Holy Family is a large Roman Catholic church in Barcelona, Catalonia (Spain), designed by Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926).
Although incomplete, the church is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and in November 2010 Pope Benedict XVI consecrated and proclaimed it a minor basilica, as distinct from a cathedral, which must be the seat of a bishop.
Construction of Sagrada Família had commenced in 1882 and Gaudí became involved in 1883, taking over the project and transforming it with his architectural and engineering style, combining Gothic and curvilinear Art Nouveau forms. Gaudí devoted his last years to the project, and at the time of his death at age 73 in 1926, less than a quarter of the project was complete. Sagrada Família's construction progressed slowly, as it relied on private donations and was interrupted by the Spanish Civil War, only to resume intermittent progress in the 1950s. Construction passed the midpoint in 2010 with some of the project's greatest challenges remaining and an anticipated completion date of 2026, the centenary of Gaudí's death.
As I said previously, I have a few more images of the Copper Coast and all of them show how wonderful this designated UNESCO Geopark Site is. I will be certainly visiting it a lot more in the future and it is not too far to travel.

Hierapolis - Pamukkale
Unesco World Heritage List
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierapolis
Hierapolis (Ancient Greek: Ἱεράπολις, lit. "Holy City") was an ancient city located on hot springs in classical Phrygia in southwestern Anatolia. Its ruins are adjacent to modern Pamukkale in Turkey and currently comprise an archaeological museum designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Les tanneries de Fès se composent de nombreux vases en pierre remplis avec une vaste gamme de teintures et de liquides divers répandus comme une grande palette d’aquarelles. Des dizaines d’hommes, dont beaucoup sont debout jusqu’à la taille dans les colorants, travaillent sous le soleil brûlant. Les tanneries traitent les peaux de vaches, de moutons, de chèvres et de chameaux, les transformant en articles en cuir de haute qualité tels que des sacs, manteaux, chaussures et souliers. Tout cela est réalisé à la main, sans nécessiter l’utilisation de machines modernes, et le processus n’a que très peu changé depuis l’époque médiévale, ce qui rend ces tanneries absolument fascinante à visiter.(by Florian Colas)

Le parc national de Þingvellir est près de la municipalité de Bláskógabyggð, en Islande. Ce parc se situe au sud-ouest de l'Islande, en bordure des Hautes Terres, sur la rive nord de Þingvallavatn, le plus grand lac naturel d'Islande.
L'église Þingvallakirkja a été consacrée au 11e siècle mais reconstruit en 1859 et la Þingvallabaer est une ferme à 5 pignons édifiée dans les années 1930. Ces édifices logent aujourd'hui le centre administratif du parc et la maison d'été du premier Ministre de l'Islande.
L’aire protégée de Þingvellir regroupe plusieurs montagnes, volcans, lacs, cours d'eau et une forêt. Le site, célèbre pour sa beauté naturelle et son histoire, est classé au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO depuis 2004 (WHL-1152).
Þingvellir (islandais), anglicisé comme Thingvellir, était le site en plein air de l'Althing, assemblée plénière représentant l'ensemble de l'Islande, qui s'est tenu à partir de 930 jusqu'en 1798. Durant une session annuelle qui durait une quinzaine de jours, l'assemblée élaborait des lois conçues comme des pactes entre hommes libres et réglait les différends. Pour la population islandaise, l'Althing est un lieu aux profondes résonances historiques et symboliques. Le nom Þingvellir est d’ailleurs dérivé du vieux norrois Þingvǫllr, de þing ("thing, assembée") et vǫllr ("champ"), signifiant champs d'assemblage.
Depuis 1881, le parlement islandais est situé à Alþingishúsið à Reykjavík.
Le parc national de Þingvellir fait partie du Golden Circle, la plus célèbre de toutes les routes panoramiques d'Islande qui combine des monuments époustouflants et des lieux d'importance historique dans une visite touristique circulaire. Le Cercle d'Or est la plus célèbre de toutes les routes panoramiques d'Islande et combine des monuments époustouflants et des lieux d'importance historique dans une visite touristique circulaire.
The Mosque–Cathedral of Córdoba is the cathedral of the Diocese of Córdoba dedicated to the Assumption of Mary and located in the Spanish region of Andalusia. Due to its status as a former mosque, it is also known as the Mezquita.
In 1236 Córdoba was conquered by King Ferdinand III of Castile as part of the Reconquista. Upon the city's conquest the mosque was converted into a Catholic cathedral dedicated to the Virgin Mary (Santa Maria).
