Places to see in ( Gorizia - Italy )
Gorizia is a town and comune in northeastern Italy, in the autonomous region of Friuli Venezia Giulia. It is located at the foot of the Julian Alps, bordering Slovenia. It is the capital of the Province of Gorizia and a local center of tourism, industry, and commerce. Since 1947, a twin town of Nova Gorica has developed on the other side of the modern-day Italian–Slovenian border.
The entire region was subject to territorial dispute between Italy and Yugoslavia after World War II: after the new boundaries were established in 1947 and the old town was left to Italy, Nova Gorica was built on the Yugoslav side. Taken together, the two towns constitute a conurbation, which also includes the Slovenian municipality of Šempeter-Vrtojba. Since May 2011, these three towns are joined in a common trans-border metropolitan zone, administered by a joint administration board.
Gorizia is located at the confluence of the Isonzo and Vipava Valleys. It lies on a plain overlooked by the Gorizia Hills. Sheltered from the north by a mountain ridge, Gorizia is protected from the cold bora wind, which affects most of the neighbouring areas. The town thus enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate throughout the year, making it a popular resort. The name of the town comes from the Slovene word gorica 'little hill', which is a very common toponym in Slovene-inhabited areas.
Alot to see in Gorizia such as :
The castle, built within the medieval walls, was once the seat of the administrative and judiciary power of the county. It is divided into the Corte dei Lanzi (with foundings of a high tower demolished in the 16th century), the Palazzetto dei Conti (13th century) and the Palazzetto Veneto. The Lanzi were the armed guards, the term being an Italian form of Landsknecht. The palatine chapel, entitled to Saint Bartholomew houses canvases of the Venetian school of painting and traces of Renaissance frescoes. There is also a Museum of the Goritian Middle Ages.
The Cathedral (originally erected in the 14th century), like many of the city's buildings, was almost entirely destroyed during World War I. It has been rebuilt following the forms of the 1682 edifice, a Baroque church with splendid stucco decoration. A Gothic chapel of San Acatius is annexed to the nave.
The church of Gorizia of St. Ignatius of Loyola, built by the Jesuits in 1680–1725. It has a single nave with precious sculptures at the altars of the side chapels. In the presbytery Christoph Tausch painted a Glory of St. Ignatius in 1721.
The Palazzo Attems Petzenstein (19th century), designed by Nicolò Pacassi.
Saint Roch's Church.
Palazzo Cobenzl, today seat of the archbishops.
The Counts of Lantieri's house, which housed emperors and popes in its history.
The Palazzo Coronini Cronberg, including an art gallery.
Transalpina railway square, divided by an international border.
The Department of International and Diplomatic Sciences of the University of Trieste, hosted in the Seminario Minore, is an academic course in foreign affairs.

Salzburg Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia
The Austrian city of Salzburg is situated on the northern edge of the Alps, close to the border of Germany. Surrounded by lakes and mountains, and straddling the banks of the Salzach River, few cities can match Salzburg’s fairytale setting.
Few places can match its musical heritage either. Salzburg is the hometown of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and provided the settings for one of cinema’s most-adored musicals, The Sound Of Music.
Take the funicular to Hohensalzburg, one of Europe’s best-preserved medieval fortresses. Down below in the Old Town you’ll find Salzburg Cathedral and the Salzburg Museum. Nearby, wander along narrow Getreidegasse, one of the loveliest shopping streets in the world.
Just off the Old Market Square, savor 300 years of coffee-making tradition at Café Tomaselli. For classical Austrian fare served with a side of Opera, take the short walk to Stiftskeller St. Peter. At the Müllner Bräu Brewery, hang out with beer devotees from all over the world.
Salzburg has long been a city where inspiration knows no bounds, especially when it comes to its palaces. Just a short stroll from the Marionette Theater, the grandeur of Mirabell Palace and Gardens awaits. While on Salzburg’s southern outskirts, explore the playful water features at Hellbrunn Palace.
While Salzburg abounds with fountains, some of the city’s most impressive water features are its natural ones, such as Lake Wolfgang and Krimml Waterfall. For a waterfall with a difference, visit the spa town of Bad Gastein, whose falls roar straight through the heart of town. From the town, take the cable car to the summit of Stubnerkogel Mountain and walk Europe’s highest suspension bridge.
The Salzburg region is full of surprises, so before heading back to the city, head underground, into the Hallein Salt Mine. From its salt mines to its symphonies, from its fountains to its waterfalls, Salzburg plays out like a living opera, filled with drama, comedy, intrigue and passion.
Füssen - Travel Germany
Füssen was settled in Roman times, on the Via Claudia Augusta, a road that leads southwards to northern Italy and northwards to Augusta Vindelicum (today's Augsburg), the former regional capital of the Roman province Raetia. The original name of Füssen was Foetes, or Foetibus (inflected), which derives from Latin Fauces, meaning gorge, probably referring to the Lech gorge. In Late Antiquity Füssen was the home of a part of the Legio III Italica, which was stationed there to guard the important trade route over the Alps.

Portland, Maine Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia (4K)
Portland, Saco, Cape Porpoise and Kennebunkport sit on the southern coastline of Maine. Part of Portland’s great charm is its working waterfront.
Amble down Commercial Street and spend a few hours drifting around the many wharves and piers. Then, follow the salty breezes through the streets and lanes of the historic port district.
Tour the ornate rooms of Victoria Mansion, and visit the historic home of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, one of America’s most beloved poets. Head west along Congress Street to the Portland Museum of Art. Many of the artists whose works feature here were inspired by Portland’s coastline, including one of the giants of American Art, Winslow Homer.
Cross the Fore River to South Portland and peer through the gun ports of Historic Fort Preble. Just below the fort is the Spring Point Ledge Light, one of the smaller of Maine’s 57 active lighthouses, while just a few miles south, on Cape Elizabeth, stands one of New England’s most beautiful, Portland Head Light.
Seven miles south of Portland is Scarborough, where families have been returning to sleepy havens like Higgins Beach for generations. From here, let the bend of Saco Bay sweep you further south to Saco, Cape Porpoise and Kennebunkport.
On your way back to Portland, grab a ticket and take a ride at the Seashore Trolley Museum, the largest collection of streetcars in the world.
Welcome to Portland. It’s more than just a city by the sea, it’s a song.
Top Sehenswürdigkeiten in Emilia Romagna: Bologna, Ferrari, Rimini, Modena, San Marino
Ich stelle die Top Sehenswürdigkeiten in Emilia Romagna vor mit Tipps für Bologna, Rimini, Modena und einem Ausflug in die Appenninen sowie nach San Marino.
Kostenloser Reiseführer:
Nicholas ist in der Emilia Romagna geboren und aufgewachsen und zeigt mir die Highlights seiner Heimat.
Die Region Emilia Romagna bietet eine sehr große Vielfalt an Aktivitätet und Sehenswürdigkeiten ein -- von gutem Essen ganz zu schweigen! Hier findest Du meine persönlichen Empfehlungen für Deinen Aufenthalt.
a) Altstadt von Bologna
Das Zentrum Bolognas ist wunderschön -- ein besonderes Markenzeichen sind die vielen Arkaden die selbst bei schlechtem Wetter einen Stadtspaziergang ermöglichen. Nehmt euch die Zeit für einen ausgiebigen Rundgang durch die Innenstadt mit seinen alten, teils mit Fachwerk errichteten, Häusern und macht gerne eine Pause in einem der vielen Cafes -- auch diese sind in großer Vielzahl an den Arkaden vertreten und bieten hervorragenden Espresso.
b) Torre Asinelli -- Bologna von oben
Man munkelt das einst mehr als 180 Türme in Bologna standen -- zum Schutz aber auch als Statussymbol. Davon sind heute nur eine Hand voll übrig geblieben, der Torre Asinelli war einst sogar das höchste Gebäude Europas und ist heute für die Öffentlichkeit zugängig. Genieße von hier den schönsten Ausblick über Bologna, den du dir jedoch zunächst mit Treppensteigen verdienen musst!
Kosten: 3€
c) Schlemmen in der Küche Italiens
Die Emilia Romagna gilt als die Küche Italiens, da viele Spezialitäten von hier stammen: Parmesan, Parma Schinken, Motadella, Balsamico, Tortellini und natürlich Tagliatelle al Ragú (Bolognese) um nur einige Köstlichkeiten zu nennen. Daher ist dieser Punkt auch extra aufgeführt: nimm dir Zeit, suche dir gute Restaurants aus (s.u.) und genieße die leckere Italienische Küche!
d) Ferrari fahren in Modena
Dieser Traum ist zugegebenermaßen nicht ganz billig zu haben (ab 440€), für wahre Ferrari-Fanatiker aber sicherlich eine echte Option: einen Ferrari F430 Challenge auf einer Rennstrecke mal so richtig ausfahren. Das Autodromo di Modena ist zwar nicht lang, jedoch ist die Strecke recht abwechslungsreich und das Erlebnis einen solchen Boliden fahren zu dürfen schlicht unvergesslich!
e) Ferrari Museum Maranello
Für Auto- und Formel 1 Fans wohl eine der Sehenswürdigkeiten in Emilia Romagna schlechthin: Maranello mit all seinen Ferraris -- neben dem Museum, in welchem man einige Boliden bestaunen kann, gibt es hier auch viele Anbieter bei denen man einen Ferrari auf Zeit anmieten kann.
f) Fußball & Tifosi
Zwar sind in dieser Region nicht die ganz großen Clubs zu Hause, die Stimmung ist jedoch selbst auf den Dorfplätzen meist sehr gut. Der FC Bologna und der AC Cesena sind abwechselnd in der 1ten und 2ten Liga zu Hause, Tickets bekommt man daher oftmals einfacher als bei Juve und Co -- wie gesagt, für das Fußballerlebnis muss es nicht immer Champions League sein ;)
g) Wandern im Nationalpark Casentinesi
Raus in die grüne Natur heißt die Devise -- die aktiveren Sehenswürdigkeiten in Emilia Romagna sind im Südosten des Landes zu finden. Der Nationalpark Foreste Casentinesi liegt auf der Grenze zur Toskana und hat einige schöne Wanderstrecken in petto -- u.a. rund um die Klosteranlage von Camaldoli in der Nähe von Bagno di Romagna.
h) Mountainbiking in den Appenninen
Nicht erst seit Marco Pantani steht Radsport hier ganz hoch im Kurs -- jedes Jahr kommen begeisterte Radsportler aus aller Welt in die Emilia Romagna zum Radfahren. Neben 'Giros' auf den hiesigen Straßen kann man sich auch im Mountainbiking versuchen. Ich habe hierbei Acquapartita in der Nähe von Bagno di Romagna als Ausgangspunkt genutzt, ein gutes Ausflugziel ist beispielsweise die Quelle des Tiber.
i) Altstadt von San Marino
San Marino ist die älteste Republik der Welt und hat eine wunderschöne, kleine Altstadt die einen Tagesausflug wert ist. Da die Stadt auf einem Berg liegt hat man von den 3 Türmen eine tolle Aussicht auf das Umland, zudem sollte man den Reisepass nicht vergessen wenn man sich einen Stempel abholen möchte (gg. 5€ Gebühr).
j) Entspannen am Strand von Rimini
In den 70er Jahren war der Strand von Rimini das Ziel für deutsche Urlauber, heute ist das Publikum bunt gemischt. Statt einsamer Buchten findet man einen breiten Sandstrand mit gut ausgebauter touristischer Infrastruktur -- dennoch: für einen Abstecher ans Meer allemal geeignet, zudem hat Rimini auch eine schöne Altstadt!
