Linderhof Palace is located in southwest Bavaria and was built by King Ludwig of Bavaria second. The castle has some impressive rooms and is surrounded by gardens where you can see all kinds of allegorical statues.
Impressed by the Versailles Castle from France, the initial plans were born in 1857. In 1869 he received to use the Linderhof area, where his father, Maximilian II, had the Royal House oh hunting.

Under the guidance of his architect, Georg Dollmann, the work began at the Linderhof Palace, which was known to become not a representative castle for Bavaria, but rather a refuge for the King Louis II himself, whose withdrawn character was always looking for places to give him peace and protection needed to his solitary personality, as well as there were also castles such as Neuschwanstein and Chiemsee.

Linderhof Palace was the only building of this kind, initiated by King Louis II, who was finished until his tragic death, of June 13, 1886, when he drowned in the Starnberg Lake.

Even if this is the smallest castle ever built by Ludwig, Linderhof is the only one that was completed in totality and was the place where he lived most.

The first built castle, which was completed during the reign of Louis II and where the king lived, is Linderhof. It was built in the Rococo style, being considered a larger house. Buildings, ponds and fountains in the yard made it as a castle. The apartments are filled with the image of the two Louis of France, and the Sun symbol is ubiquitous. The Bavarian King wanted two things at the Linderhof Palace: a cave and a waterfall, both artificial. In the cave there is an ark and an artificial lake, where Louis, a withdrawn yarn, used to walk alone, and in the right of the royal bedroom was built the so called “Niagara morning,” an impressive artificial fall of water.

Bali Island is an exotic paradise, a tropical island known for its majestic volcanoes, spectacularly terraced rice crops, especially for its complex culture and traditions preserved for thousands of years. Bali houses many ceremonies and festivals, and from the sightseeings there are remarked the Pura temple, Tanah Lot temple, Tirzah Empul, beach Kuta. Bali Island belongs to Indonesia and is famous for the beauty of tropical beaches and volcanic, with huge palm trees and flowers, its original art making the whole landscape through sculpture, painting, dance and ceremonies dedicated to the gods. Bali combines the image of a tropical island with sun, sand and sea.

The Bali Island is located between Java, Sumatra and Lombok  and became one of the largest tourist attractions in the world.The capital of Bali Island is in Dempasar.

Bali is considered a small island with 140 km length and about 80 kilometers in width. It has a mountainous relief, and here it can be found the Agung volcano which is located to a height of 3142 meters. Because of the relief, the irrigation are naturala and most are in the form of waterfalls which greatly help to the cultivation of cereals, especially rice.
The little Island is surrounded by the Indian Ocean to the South, Java Sea in the north, and by the Bali Straits in the west, which makes the connection between Bali and Java Island.

Because in Indonesia there are spoken more than 300 different languages, the island’s official language is Bahasa Indonesia which is taught even in school, but the older only speak Balinese language, which is completely different to the official one.

The Erechtheion temple’s name comes from one of the first kings of Athens. In the yard of the Erechtheion is growing the olive tree which was thought to be given to the city by the goddess called Athens.

The statue of Athena was so big warrior that the athenians sailors situated far, on the sea, could see the helmet and spear of the goddess shining in the sunlight.

The Propylaea: here is made the entrance into the Acropolis. The way to propylaea was consisted of a steep slope on which they advanced the religious processions heading to the temple.
The Parthenon was the most beautiful building on the Acropolis, it was built by Pericles being a temple dedicated to the Athens Parthenos goddess . The Greek word “Parthenos” means “unmarried” and Parthenon means “house of the unmarried goddess”. It is an imposing building with a length of 99.7 m and a width of 33.5 m. Its construction lasted 15 years, made of Pentel marble, which contains iron and gives a gold glow in the sunlight. Inside, there is another huge statue of the Athens goddess, carved in ivory and gold by Phidias.
The Parthenon was the scene of one of the biggest Athenian festivals:Panathenaea. This festival is being hold every 4 years in honor of the Athens goddess. This was a mixture of religious ceremony and entertainment, athletic competitions were organized and a torches race was being hold at night on the city’s streets. The most important event of the festival was a procession in which young athenians women led the peplos to the Parthenon. Pericles ordered this process to be carved on the frieze that surrounds the Parthenon. These sculptures are called Elgin, and some of them can be admired in the British Museum.

The Colosseum was and it is still being the largest and most famous Roman amphitheater. Its construction was completed during the reign of Domitian. The building was called the Flavian Amphitheater. Modification and restoration of the Colosseum have been made to the beginning of the sixth century. In the following centuries has suffered because of negligence, earthquakes and other problems. However, more than one third of the outer arches can be seen today. Internal skeleton which supports the “Cave” has remained largely intact. Unfortunately, all marble and metal decorations have disappeared.

The Colosseum has an elliptical shape, measuring about 189 m in length and 156 m in width. The exterior has 47 m high, composed of 3 floors consisting of arches and an IVth floor. Each of these three floors had at the beginning 80 of arcade. At the Colosseum’s building were used stone blocks, cement and bricks.

The fourth floor contains the Corinthian style decorations. At first, at each arch were statues, and huge iron shields decorating the fourth floor of the building between the so-called windows. There were also a kind of awnings which sustained the top floor protecting spectators from the sun. According to the studies which were made, the Colosseum could accommodate about 60 thousand people.

The indoor arena which had 85 m long and 53 m wide is just a hollow surrounded by a high wall to protect spectators from the wild animals used in fights. The floor was made of wood and was covered with sand to absorb the blood spilled in battles. Under this were found some mechanisms that sustained it. The floor was covering underground tunnels where once, there were imprisoned the animals and gladiators.
The Colosseum is a marvel of engineering because there are so many stairs and exits, so that the entire arena could be emptied in just 10 minutes.
Surely this is an impressive building which represents of the main attractions of Italy.

Yellowstone is the largest national park in the world. Established in 1872 by an Act of Congress, the park was known as Yellowstone, by the way the tribe of Indians called the water Minnetaree that crosses the land: the river that springs from the yellow rock.   

Located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, the park occupies an area of nearly 5470 square kilometers, along the length and the width whom the roads are arranged. Yellowstone is in the territories of three states: Wyoming, southwestern Montana and southeastern Idaho State. In the park you can get through five entries: Gardiner. West Yellowstone, Jackson, Cooly and Cooke City and is crossed by the parallel of 45 grades north latitude.

The first historical evidence of the human existence in this area dates back 12,000 years, and the problem is put over the traces which were left by the nomadic tribes. After coming of Europeans, Bannocks Indians were those to master these lands.

In the winter of 1806-1807, John Colter left the Americans Lewis and Clark expedition and began to explore one area. Colter spent three years in the wilderness area, returning, finally, to St.Louis and storying about the beauties and wonders seen in Yellowstone. Unfortunately, his stories were considered by his fellow citizens as hallucinations of a madman.

The expedition, which finally laid the important region, organized by the explorers was the Washburn, Langford and Doane, in 1870, when there were discovered the waterfalls of the Yellowstone river, mud volcanoes, Yellowstone Lake and Great Fountain Geyser. After the expedition reports were prepared, and published articles about particular phenomenons occurring in the area. Thus, two years later, the region was declared a national park and one of the expedition’s members, Nathaniel Langford, became the first manager of the park.

In terms of geology, Yellowstone crossed three active volcanoes periods, which began 2.1 million years ago, and which generated a volcanic plateau located at approximately 1.950-2.550 m altitude above sea level. The most important feature of the park is given by the geothermal phenomenon: geysers, hot springs, mud volcanoes and mofettes.

Traveler’s eyes are attracted by four major points of tourist interest: the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone river, Thermal springs of Mamut , geysers and Yellowstone Lake.

Freedom Tower, the building that will replace the World Trade Center towers prostrate in 2001, will be completed in the Tower 2012.

Freedom Tower will lift more than 540 meters (1776 feet, a figure chosen to refer to the year of the Declaration of Independence, the year when it was signed) above Manhattan, will have a cubic base and host more than 240,000 square meters of office space. In 2012, at 11 years from the attacks of September 11, the tower will be opened. On the area where the two towers collapsed is also located a monument to commemorate the 2986 people who lost their lives in the major terrorist attack in the United States.
At the end of February 2008, 9,400 tons of the nearly 50,000 tonnes were known to ease the tower that had already been ordered.

Steel beams that will form the skeleton of the Freedom Tower are made up at the Archs factory, located in the city of Luxembourg Differendange. In October 2008, the construction has already begun to rise from the ground, falling to about 4 feet above the level of refueling. In 2006, the tower project was made public, was intended as Freedom Tower to become the tallest building in the world, but that position was already occupied by the Burj Dubai, with a height of 818 meters.
The process of building the tower meant in the same time the exhumation of remains which weren’t recovered, once with the digging of foundations which weighs 120 tonnes. Around 40% of victims of that terrorist attacks were never identified. Another little known aspect is that the remains of more than 700 people were found after September 11 on the roof of a 40-story buildings, located opposite the twin towers.
