El poble de Les ha mantingut les seves arrels ancestrals a través de la Festa del Haro (tronc d'avet d'entre 10 i 12 metres de llargada), que es composa de la shasclada, la quema i la quilhada.
Al llarg d'un diumenge de primavera, es celebra la festa de la Shasclada, quan l'Haro espera preparat per ser quilhat uns dies més tard, de la quema. La shasclada consisteix en obrir el tronc a cop de pica (shasclà-lo) per clavar-li els cunys que permetran que l'aire l'assequi i sigui de millor cremar. L'Haro s'ha tallat del bosc, s'ha baixat al poble i s'ha preparat amb l'esforç de tota la comunitat.
Cada any, la vigília de Sant Joan, el 23 de juny, es crema (quema) l'Haro a la plaça del poble. Abans, i a causa de la cristianització, era necessària la presència de la imatge de Sant Joan Baptista, que arriba en processó seguit pel capellà que beneirà l'Haro abans de cremar-lo. Un cop feta la benedicció, se li cala foc i mentre les flames arriben al cel, un grup de joves fan cremar "es halhes". "Es halhes" són elements de gran importància a la festa i es confeccionen amb pells d'escorça de cirerer, unes sobre les altres i lligades amb un fil de ferro. Els més joves les fan girar per sobre dels seus caps com projectils de foc simbolitzant el repartiment de l'element purificador per tots els racons del poble. Un cop "es halhes" s'han cremat, el grup folklòric del poble està preparat ja per decorar la plaça de música i color, amb els seus tratjos tradicionals, de vistosos colors i les seves danses alegres com "es Aubades", "eth Tricotèr", "eth Cadrilh" y el "Balh Plan".
Encara amb l'olor de la cendra calenta, el poble de Les es prepara per quilhar el nou Haro. En processó un cop més, però amb la diferència que, aquesta vegada, l'encapçalen les darreres parelles de casats del poble, que coronen el nou Haro amb ofrenes de flors (una corona, un ram i una creu), símbols de fecunditat i fertilitat. El grup de danses i folklore tradicional tornaran, un cop més, a posar-li el punt de gràcia, alegria i plasticitat que caracteritzen aquesta festa de Les. Aquests músics, cantants i dansaires, han recollit la tradició musical del poble, són "Es Corbilhuèrs de Les".

The Danakil Depression is among the hottest places on earth in terms of year-round average temperatures, one of the lowest and most remote places on the planet.
Sulfur springs, brine and acidic liquid, temporary geysers which are forming cones of salt... all form a very unique landscape.

The Lindenhof, Zurich, Switzerland
The Lindenhof, in the old town of Zürich, Switzerland, is the historical site of the Roman castle, and the later Carolingian Kaiserpfalz. It is situated on Lindenhof hill, on the left side of the Limmat at the Schipfe.
In 1747, a second-century Roman tombstone was discovered at the site, bearing the oldest attestation of Turīcum, the Roman-era name of Zürich, as STA[tio] TURIC[ensis], at the time a tax-collection point. The castle remained intact during the early phase of Alemannic immigration in between the fifth and sixth centuries, but was derelict by the ninth century, when it was rebuilt as a residence for Louis the German. It later became dilapidated and used as a source of building stone by the 13th century.
The Lindenhof remained a place of civil assembly into modern times. In 1798, the citizens of Zürich swore the oath to the constitution of the Helvetic Republic on the Lindenhof. In 1851, the Modestia cum Libertate Masonic Lodge (established in 1771) bought the residence Zum Paradies and built a masonic building on the southern side of the square. In the early 21st century, it serves as a recreational space, a green oasis, and automobile-free zone in the old historic city centre. Its elevated position makes it a popular location for tourists to get an overview of the geography of old Zürich.

Na deze stenen brug over de rivier Ton, ten zuidwesten van Ethe, is het baanlichaam afgegraven. Sportvelden en parkeerplaatsen kwamen ervoor in de plaats. De fietsers moeten hier dan ook een ommetje maken om de rit naar Marbehan op het oude spoortracé te kunnen vervolgen. Aan de noordoostzijde is in het oude baanlichaam nog een kleine stenen onderdoorgang aanwezig (Rue des Acacias). De foto is van 7 mei 2007.
