Lio Piccolo è una località della Laguna Veneta, compresa nel comune di Cavallino-Treporti. È talvolta indicata come un'isola, sebbene sia piuttosto un insieme di isolotti separati da stretti canali. L'appellativo Lio è un termine locale, oggi in disuso, che significa lido. L'appellativo latino Litus Minor, servì per distinguerla dalla vicina Litus Maior, l'attuale Lio Maggiore di Jesolo.[senza fonte]

 

Vi si accede da Treporti percorrendo una strada molto panoramica, essendo del tutto circondata da paludi. Si tratta di una località prevalentemente agricola: attorno alla chiesetta dedicata a Santa Maria della Neve sorgono una manciata di edifici, mentre il paesaggio circostante si caratterizza per la presenza di orti - dove si coltivano, tra l'altro, le note castraùre (il primo germoglio del carciofo violetto) e le zizołe (giuggiole) - con qualche casone isolato, intervallati da canali, zone di barena e valli da pesca.

 

Ha subito, nel corso dei secoli, notevoli mutazioni territoriali, a causa di fenomeni quali la subsidenza e l'erosione marina

Cuando emprendas tu viaje a Itaca

pide que el camino sea largo,

lleno de aventuras, lleno de experiencias.

No temas a los lestrigones ni a los cíclopes

ni al colérico Poseidón,

seres tales jamás hallarás en tu camino,

si tu pensar es elevado, si selecta

es la emoción que toca tu espíritu y tu cuerpo.

Ni a los lestrigones ni a los cíclopes

ni al salvaje Poseidón encontrarás,

si no los llevas dentro de tu alma,

si no los yergue tu alma ante ti.

  

Pide que el camino sea largo.

Que muchas sean las mañanas de verano

en que llegues -¡con qué placer y alegría!-

a puertos nunca vistos antes.

Detente en los emporios de Fenicia

y hazte con hermosas mercancías,

nácar y coral, ámbar y ébano

y toda suerte de perfumes sensuales,

cuantos más abundantes perfumes sensuales puedas.

Ve a muchas ciudades egipcias

a aprender, a aprender de sus sabios.

  

Ten siempre a Itaca en tu mente.

Llegar allí es tu destino.

Mas no apresures nunca el viaje.

Mejor que dure muchos años

y atracar, viejo ya, en la isla,

enriquecido de cuanto ganaste en el camino

sin aguantar a que Itaca te enriquezca.

  

Itaca te brindó tan hermoso viaje.

Sin ella no habrías emprendido el camino.

Pero no tiene ya nada que darte.

  

Aunque la halles pobre, Itaca no te ha engañado.

Así, sabio como te has vuelto, con tanta experiencia,

entenderás ya qué significan las Itacas.

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.

La ría de Bilbao (también conocida como ría del Nervión o del Ibaizábal) es la desembocadura que forma el sistema de los ríos Nervión e Ibaizábal, así como sus últimos afluentes, en su llegada al mar Cantábrico, en el golfo de Vizcaya. Atraviesa Bilbao, divididiendo la ciudad en dos: a la derecha, el Casco Viejo (o Siete Calles) y, a la izquierda, el Ensanche.

Although not so dramatic as some of the other river views, this is one of my favorites. Looking East from Tower Bridge.
