Places to see in ( Bastia - France )
Bastia is a city on the French island of Corsica. Bars and restaurants line the Old Port, with the twin-towered Church of St. Jean-Baptiste rising behind it. Terra Nova, a centuries-old citadel with ramparts, was built by Genoese rulers. Nearby is the Cathedral of Ste. Marie, filled with paintings and marble statues. The Governor’s Palace houses the Bastia Museum, showcasing the city’s history.
Filled with heart, soul and character, the bustling old port of Bastia is a good surprise. Sure, it might not measure up to the sexy style of Ajaccio or the architectural appeal of Bonifacio, but it has an irresistible magnetism. Bastia is an authentic snapshot of modern-day Corsica, a lived-in city that’s resisted the urge to polish up its image just to please the tourists. The historical neighbourhoods of Terra Vecchia and Terra Nova are especially vibrant – allow yourself a day to take in the sights and mosey around atmospheric streets and boutiques.
Bastia is a French commune in the Haute-Corse department of France located in the north-east of the island of Corsica at the base of Cap Corse. It also has the second-highest population of any commune on the island after Ajaccio and is the capital of the Bagnaja region and of the department. Bastia is the principal port of the island and its principal commercial town and is especially famous for its wines. Approximately 10% of the population are immigrants. The unemployment rate in the commune has persistently been one of the highest in France, standing at over 20% in 2004.
Located in the North-East of Corsica at the base of the Cap Corse, between the sea and the mountain, Bastia is the principal port of the island. The city is located 35 km (22 mi) away from the northern tip of the Cap Corse, 50 km (31 mi) west from Elba, an Italian island, and 90 km (56 mi) away from continental Italy which can be seen a few days per year when visibility is excellent.

Frankrijk, Corsica, Bastia
Bastia is a commune in the Haute-Corse department of France located in the northeast of the island of Corsica at the base of Cap Corse. It is also the second-largest city in Corsica after Ajaccio and the capital of the department.
Bastia is the principal port of the island and its principal commercial town, especially famous for its wines. According to the 2006 census, Bastia has 43,577 inhabitants. Approximately 10% of the population are immigrants. The unemployment rate in the commune has persistently been one of the highest in France, standing at over 20% in 2004. Located in the North-East of Corsica at the base of the Cap Corse, between the sea and the mountain, Bastia is the principal port of the island. The city is located 35 km away from the Northern tip of the Cap Corse, 50 km West from Elba, an Italian island, and 90 km away from continental Italy which can be seen a few days per year when visibility is excellent.
The city of Bastia as seen from the Pigno: notice the lack of constructions in the foreground and the city along the coast in the background
In terms of geography, Bastia is defined by its position between the sea and the mountain. The city is located on the Eastern side of the Serra di Pignu, a 960 m high mountain (see photo opposite). This steep mountain and several hills in the city shape a relief typical of the Cap Corse. This pronounced landscape caused the city to develop mostly on a coastal band about 1.5 km wide, which is a very limited part of the 19.38 km² that the commune has.
Above all, Bastia is a port, and the sea has of course a significant role in the spatial organization of the city. Bastia possesses nowadays three different ports. The old port (Vieux Port in French and Porto Vecchio in Corsican), located in a remarkable and narrow cove, offers good natural shelter against the climatic hazards of the Mediterranean Sea. Thus, it was at the core of the initial development of the city. Nowadays, many pleasure and fishing boats are still there, but it is not as economically vital than the other more modern ports, although its touristic and aesthetic charm almost makes the old port the official emblem of the city. In fact, many cafés, bars and restaurants have moved to its docks to which access is granted by the city for pedestrians only during summer evenings.
A bit more to the North is located the commercial and ferry port. As a major economic asset of the city, the port de commerce is the pulse of the city. It is even more so during the summer when ferry arrivals and departures of thousands of passengers and cars can sometimes cause long traffic jams along the North-South axis, the national road RN193. In front of the commercial port, the large Saint-Nicolas square represents the heart of the city. Just North of the commercial port, the Toga marina, named after a city neighborhood, is a harbor for leisure boating activities like sailing and yachting. There are also some bars, restaurants and night clubs on its docks.
Thus, Bastia is logically organized on a relatively narrow North-South axis which can make access to the city center difficult under particular circumstances. Nowadays, the city center is mainly composed of the citadelle, the stronghold, also called Terra-Nova, with the Genoese Governors' Palace, the old port and its popular quarter and the market plaza, and finally the ensemble of buildings along the Boulevard Paoli, the main commercial street of the city, which lies from the Justice Court to the Avenue Maréchal Sebastiani.
Durings the last few decades, Bastia and its region have experienced a strong demographic growth, which has cause somewhat of a suburban crawl in the South of the city, because of the congestion of the city center.

Amsterdam
La rivière Amstel vient se jeter dans l'IJ en formant un grand nombre de canaux au centre la ville. Cette dernière est située à deux mètres au-dessus du niveau de la mer.
Les terres autour de la ville sont plates et formées de grands polders.
Au sud-ouest de la ville se trouve l'Amsterdamse Bos, une forêt plantée par l'homme. Enfin, la ville est reliée à la mer du Nord par le long canal de la Mer du Nord.
Construite au xiiie siècle, Amsterdam était à l'origine un village de pêcheurs.
Elle tient son nom d'un barrage (Dam en néerlandais), qui avait été construit sur décision du comte de Hollande Florent V, se situant sur une partie du cours inférieur de la rivière Amstel (formé par le Damrak et le Rokin).
L'emplacement de ce barrage, qui était couplé à un pont lui-même exempt de péage, a donné naissance à la principale place d'Amsterdam.
A la fin du xixe siècle, la révolution industrielle donna un souffle nouveau à Amsterdam, à la suite de la création de nouvelles liaisons entre les canaux et la mer et au percement d'un nouveau canal jusqu'au Rhin, qui permirent de faciliter les communications au sein de l'Europe, mais également vers le monde entier.
Les canaux patrimoine de l'Unesco
Ceux-ci se développent en une succession de demi-cercles concentriques autour du centre historique de la ville, le quartier de Centrum.
Les quatre premiers canaux sont espacés entre eux par des bandes de terre de 80 à 150 mètres de largeur en moyenne, tandis que la distance entre le quatrième et le cinquième peut aller jusqu'à environ 550 mètres (limite nord du quartier de Jordaan).
Ces canaux sont également reliés entre eux par d'autres qui leur sont perpendiculaires, comme : le Brouwersgracht, le Leidsegracht ou le Reguliersgracht.
Le Singel est le premier canal le plus proche du centre-ville et fit office de douve à la cité médiévale jusqu'en 1585, date à laquelle Amsterdam commença son expansion urbanistique.
Il se jette à l'est dans l'Amstel au niveau du Muntplein et au nord-ouest dans l'IJ.
Le nom de Singel est un vieux mot néerlandais signifiant « cercle », que l'on peut rapprocher du terme allemand : umzingeln voulant dire « entourer ».
La Courbure dans le Herengracht près du Nieuwe Spiegelstraat à Amsterdam (1672) par Gerrit Berckheyde
Le Herengracht traduit par « canal des Patriciens » est le canal en partant du centre-ville qui se trouve le plus à l'intérieur parmi les trois principaux canaux.
Il est prolongé à l'est par le Nieuwe Herengracht et se jette au nord-ouest dans le Brouwersgracht.
Il est très célèbre pour sa « courbure d'or » (Gouden Bocht) entre les ponts de la Leidsestraat et de la Vijzelstraat.
Les principales curiosités de ce canal sont Bijbels Museum (le musée biblique), le Kattenkabinet qui est un musée consacré aux chats, le Musée du Sac, le Museum Willet-Holthuysen, le Jardin botanique d'Amsterdam.
Le Keizersgracht traduit par « canal de l'Empereur » est le troisième canal des quatre principaux en partant du centre-ville.
C'est en l'honneur de l'empereur du Saint Empire Romain Germanique Maximilien Ier qu'il a été nommé ainsi. Il est prolongé à l'est par le Nieuwe Keizersgracht. Il se jette au nord-ouest dans le Brouwersgracht.
Le Prinsengracht traduit par « canal du Prince » a été nommé ainsi en l'honneur de Guillaume Ier d'Orange-Nassau. C'est le plus long des quatre principaux canaux car celui se trouvant le plus à l'extérieur.

Vieux Old Chateauguay Downtown Driving Tour Québec Canada
Châteauguay is an off-island suburb of Montreal, in southwestern Quebec, located both on the Chateauguay River and Lac St-Louis, which is a section of the St. Lawrence River.
The land was first given to Charles Lemoyne by the governor of New France at the time, the Comte de Frontenac with the intention of setting up a seigneurie in the area. Afterwards the seigneurie was assumed by Zacharie Robutel de la Noue in 1706. In 1763 France relinquished its claims in Canada and Châteauguay was now under British mandate. The seigneurie was bought by Marguerite d'Youville, a founder of the Quebec religious society the Grey Nuns in 1765 and 10 years later construction began on the Church of Saint-Joachim.
Châteauguay played an important part in the colonial history of North America. With the United States having declared war on Britain in 1812, Châteauguay was seen as little more than a good vantage point to post troops to defend Montreal against an invasion. This prong of the American advance on Montreal ended with the Battle of the Châteauguay, where on October 26, 1813, Lieutenant Colonel Charles de Salaberry succeeded in halting the American force of 4,000 advancing on Montreal with only some 400 troops, mostly French-Canadian and 170 Kahnawake Mohawk warriors. The second American incursion towards Montreal was defeated shortly after at Crysler's Farm on November 11.
During the Lower Canada Rebellion, Châteauguay was the scene of a notable action involving Les Patriotes. In November 1838, members of the French-Canadian rebel group, including the leaders of the rebels were arrested: François-Maurice Lepailleur, who was later exiled to Australia, and two natives of Châteauguay, Joseph Duquet and Joseph-Narcisse Cardinal, both of whom were later hanged at the prison at Au-pied-du-courant and subsequently interred beneath a monument to les Patriotes at Notre Dame des Neiges cemetery in Montreal.
