Sighisoara - old town (one of last medieval cities inhabited in Europe - pictures)

Open: Sighisoara City









street images from Sighisoara - the old town and the center of the fortress

UNESCO monument of great importance, Sighisoara Fortress has benefited from funds for a quality restoration so that today it offers noted tourist services, especially on the side of accommodation and tourist attractions. The most interesting is to take accommodation in one of the small hotels in the citadel, usually decorated in the traditional Saxon style. Entertainment and culinary attractions are not exactly on the same level, events (on the entertainment side) sometimes have a kitsch air, and good food is hard to find. Many of the restaurants offer bad or ordinary food at unjustified prices, relying more on the location of the place than on the kitchen.

Drama theatre - online broadcast

-
Image
The pandemic has expanded theater audiences through online broadcasts. As live performances or as special recordings or archived videos, many theater performances have become accessible to audiences who have never set foot in theaters. But the fact that they have become accessible does not mean that they have been accessed. The public reacted with great reservations to such initiatives. Theater audiences received them with reservations because "online is not the same thing as the thing itself" (a reaction of this type, not necessarily in these words). The artists, used to seeing the spectators, did not feel well either. The theaters, although they do not stay in the ticket money, tried to market the new product online. Very rarely were the performances made available to the public free of charge. Access charging creates great barriers not only because of the price, which was not high, but also because of the lack of habit in making such purchases and the lack of knowledge of ...

Great ghost cities of the world (top 10)

  video: Largest abandoned cities in the world TOP 10 1. Bodie (United States of America, California) . It is probably the most famous ghost town (it even has a Facebook page). Shortly after it was built, the city reached a population of 10,000 inhabitants, in 1880, and was gradually abandoned due to numerous fires. 2. Hashima Island (Japan) . Between 1887 and 1974, the island represented a coal mine and at the same time the most populated place on earth, hosting over 13,000 people per square kilometer. The decline of the island occurred due to the discovery of another fuel that replaced coal, oil. The mine was closed and, overnight, the inhabitants left it to dry, leaving behind all their goods to rot. It is currently forbidden to approach the island, for safety reasons. 3. Pripyat (Ukraine) . Built in 1970 for employees of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, the city of 50,000 inhabitants was abandoned after the 1986 explosion. 4. Sanzhi Bridge City (Taiwan). Located in northern ...

Sunset Behind... A gallery with contemporary artworks on Saatchi Art

-
Image
  Sunsets have always been an attraction. In the old days, sunrises enjoyed the same popularity, but today, in the morning we either sleep or go to work, and sunrises are no longer the focus of attention. As for sunsets, they continue to fascinate in a special way, and contemporary art, just like the art of a century ago, tries to immortalize them in one way or another. Therefore, many sunsets are for sale in art galleries, for every home and for every group of the public. So, how much does a sunset cost? One that will never pass and remain, regardless of the time, available, accessible and shining?

The main ferry lines in Greece (maps and tips)

-
Image
Greece Ferry Boats You can travel with your own car from continental Europe to many of the Greek islands, starting with Crete and Santorini, which are some of the biggest tourist attractions. You can occasionally drive your own car to Rhodes using ferries from Athens, but this destination is more easily accessible via Turkey. Destinations for which the ferry is recommended: Crete - given the very large size of the island and the large number of tourist attractions spread throughout the island, your own car can provide you with excellent mobility. The main port of arrival on the island is Chania, and from here you can visit the main beaches in the north-west of the island, the archaeological area in the central area, the south with old Orthodox monasteries. Also, in the south you can choose to travel the distance between Agia Roumeli and Loutro by ferry (but you also have a road route as an alternative). Other important destinations with ferry access are the island of Santorini (possibl...

Once upon a time, advertisements could argue with each other

-

 Today there are advertising regulations that prohibit many things that were allowed in the old days. Anyway, there were years when creatives (and car brands) could "argue" with each other through humorous advertisements. Those times were in 2007. The "dispute" took place in the pages of numerous newspapers and magazines, where advertising was bought. BMW, Audi, Subaru and Bentley participated (or got into the conversation themselves). Other interesting things from the history of car brands on BNOF Cars blog on blogspot
