Where better to stay in Rome?

Planning for independent journey in one or another country, in one or another city, inevitably confronted with a multitude of issues. One of them - question of a choice of the hotel during the trip. It is clear, that it is possible to formulate some General principles of (on this topic, by the way, something can be read here), but at the same time, each city has its own peculiarities and characteristic features. This article is devoted to the capital of Italy is Rome. Here examines the key issues associated with the question: where is it better to live or in any area of Rome it's better to stop during the journey?

Rome - a city rather big and the same has far from being the best in the world transport infrastructure. What this means in the context of our discussion, where the best stay in Rome? At least one simple thing - in Rome you feel yourself more comfortable than using less transport. It does not matter which transport: public - often heavily loaded, and on a personal car, you can get into such a drain that will not seem a little. Therefore, when selecting a location (district) for a stay in Rome, we would recommend to focus on the historical center of the city. From this point of view, perhaps, the greatest interest is the area, which can be conditionally called the Old Rome. As a guide you can take Navona square (Piazza Navona - Piazza Navona). As it seems to us, deserve special attention hotels (as well as apartments, apartments, hostels and etc.), located approximately in radius of one kilometer from the Piazza Navona.

Exotic countries, tips

Before you give some advice, there is probably understand what the exotic countries. For ordinary tourists exotic may be all that far, unusual and out of character from what he had seen before. These places are and New Zealand with Australia, and Thailand, Tibet, and China and Vietnam.

In section exotic could also be considered and the countries of the Caribbean to Latin America, which last time are popular with tourists, especially in winter time. All corners of our world, where there is a wild jungle, steaming volcanoes or mysterious peaks can be attributed to the exotic countries, which offer tourists an exciting adventure. Despite the huge number of advantages, in the race for the exotic, you may be faced with a number of rather unpleasant problems.

One of the most common problems of all that are waiting for tourists in the exotic countries, is unusual food. The most obvious advice in this case - do not buy the food on the street and in the suspicious institutions. Try the first days of the trips eat familiar food, and the «traditional» go gradually. Especially should be careful with all sorts of exotic fruit, desserts, dairy products and acute food - these products are most often spoil the trip tourists. And of course, if you know that your stomach «can give up the slack», please be special medicines.

Exotics: multi-colored beaches

Many of us are accustomed to the fact that the sand on the beaches of Golden color. And sometimes imagine that, coming to rest on a coast of the sea or ocean, you will see a black, red or green beach, just seems impossible... But the amazing beauty of the colorful beaches though, and are quite rare in the world, still exists. Most of them are of volcanic origin, and the leader in the number of rare by the color of sand beaches are considered to be of Hawaii.

Black beach
Quite rarely found in nature the black sand can be seen to the South-West coast of the island of Hawaii at popular among travelers beach Punaluu. The origin of wonder by the color of sand is quite simple to explain volcanic activity: lava during the eruption of volcanoes flowed to the ocean, cooled down, and eventually to break up the waters of the ocean, becoming thus in the sand. So as the sand of the beach Punaluu unique, tourists warn - take a handful of sand with them to memory strictly prohibited by law.

5 things you should know going to Egypt

Egypt - one of the most popular destinations chosen by Russian tourists. And no wonder. Due to low labor costs, vacation in Egypt, is relatively cheap. Going to Egypt, remember a few rules that (though we may seem strange) applies to aliens.1) Mandatory gratuities.Let's start with the tip, which is a tradition in Egypt. In Egypt, the tip will be expected of us, almost all the locals involved in tourism - the bartenders, cooks, drivers, servicing the hotel. What they get them, depends on us. However, during the holidays in Egypt, tipping is recommended to give at least to secure the sympathy of the entire hotel. It may also happen that he will ask Egyptian tipping, what should be prepared. How high should the tip be? $ 1-2 (5-10 Egyptian pounds) more than enough. For us it is not enough, but for the Egyptian bartenders are a lot of money. They earn an average of about $ 40 a month.2) Follow the ... photo!In most civilized countries of the world, photography is free. In Egypt, everything is different. If, for example, the owner of the stand will see that you're shooting against the backdrop of his tent, he will approach you and ask for money for the pictures. This also applies to pictures with the camels, or camels. Of course, in such a situation, do not argue, just pull out a dollar.

Things to Do in Copenhagen, Denmark

In the XVIII century, the capital of Denmark has been almost completely destroyed by fire, and in 1807 again set on fire by the British, so there is little in Copenhagen's historic center with narrow streets. And yet, here is something to see: beautiful palaces, numerous museums and galleries, a lively, nicely divided theme park, one of the world's longest shopping streets and cozy quarter with restaurants, bars and cafes open-air terraces.

The Little Mermaid, being just a small-sized sculpture is one of the most frequently photographed women in the world. The work was done by Edward Eriksen commissioned by Carl Jacobsen, founder of the brewery Carlsberg. "The Little Mermaid" - a fairy tale written by the great Hans Christian Andersen, the heroine saved the lives of the Prince, the ship which was wrecked. To be able to marry the prince, she had to sacrifice her beautiful voice and a fish's tail. In 1909, Jacobsen saw the staging of this tale performed by the Royal Danish Ballet, under the strong impression that he decided to give the city a sculpture Little Mermaid, which was established in 1913 and immediately became a symbol of Copenhagen.Erickson has served as a model of the sculptor, his wife, ballerina Ellen Price, at least in her head.

A small tour of Australia

A trip to Australia took place at the junction of years for that would celebrate the New Year in Sydney for their famous fireworks. The flight was made with the airline Cathay Pacific in Hong Kong, docking, docking a very comfortable 3 hours. We are underpaid by $ 100 per person for each flight, for which we have put the emergency exit is almost lying down, but the truth is it was cold. In general, flight-long night passed with flying colors.

The first item on our trip was the city of Melbourne. Settled in the Park Hyatt Melbourne Hotel 5 *. Excellent hotel with very spacious rooms, well located, though breakfast is mediocre, but this is probably Australia's national trait.



 For inspection of Melbourne we had the freedom one day because There is nothing special to watch, rose to the observation deck on the roof of a skyscraper ($ 17.5 per person) looked at the panorama of the city, walked around the city and its parks.



 The next day went to the famous Great Ocean Road. To be honest in her great and did not understand, just the road along the ocean. But the rock "12 Apostles" liked. Even on the road passing through the eucalyptus grove seen a couple peacefully chewing the leaves Koala.


 The next day we moved on a plane to Sydney. Settled in the Hotel Sofitel Sidney Wentworth 5 *. The hotel definitely not 5 *, and at best 4 *. The rooms are small, breakfast is traditionally mediocre. The truth is a good idea of it as equally close to Hyde Park, so on to the aquarium and the Sydney Opera House not more than 10 minutes to each of these points.



 On inspection of Sydney took us two full days and then had difficulty. We took a helicopter tour ($ 700 for the whole car max 3 people), have examined the entire coastline of Sydney's outlying areas and the natural center and all it took about an hour of flight time. All the rest of the time walked, visited the aquarium and there is a small zoo (both on my $ 30 per person). Zoo is nothing special, but the aquarium is excellent. A walk through the parks.


 We strongly recommend you go after 10pm feed Possum in Hyde Park. As a treat we took the grapes - went with a bang. Naturally visited the Sydney Opera House and bridge.



 As I said in our plan was to meet the New Year in Sydney and, accordingly, beholding vaunted fireworks. Since the Sydney heard about the fireworks, not only we, but still about a million tourists from all over the world specially to him who came to Sydney, we had to shell out at a table in the restaurant at the Harbour Bridge, the alternative - a couple of days living in a sleeping bag in the port of another good species will not. Place us at a table at a cost of $ 350 a person, but was included in the price of food and mediocre poilo and even what you guys singing songs.



 In general, if without undue emotion - is the fact that the fireworks would be specifically for him to go, it's really one of the main attractions of Australia. Another interesting feature of Fireworks 2 - the first version of the light at 21:00 for children and the second in 00:00 for the rest. At 1:00 the event ends and the restaurants are closed. I was shooting fireworks on your mobile, but the video will not spread as the internet is full of better movies than the Sydney fireworks my hand made.

After seeing Sydney, we went to look at the famous Blue Mountains. Honestly not impressed, in my opinion in any mountain range there are landscapes. But the road to the Blue Mountains, we stopped at a large zoo with an assortment of presents all the fauna of Australia. Moreover, almost all the animals on open pasture that is they can pet, hug, feed, etc. This zoo has become for us one of the two main attractions of Australia, along with fireworks.


 The next day we devoted to alcohol is went on a trip to the wine provinces of Australia. Tastings are held on the fine, we have held themselves as best they could - toast did not say, do not check, did not sing songs and do not even fought. Wine is generally liked, including sparkling, but it did not fly back home - to drive away.That's all our micro tour of Australia. The overall impression is not bad, but there is a slight disappointment because seemed to arriving at such a distance you see something beyond special, but everything is ordinary. As the prices of all, the country is quite expensive. An interesting feature, although the official rate of the Australian dollar to the U.S. about 1:1 is actually a single American in the exchange offer 0.87 Australian exchangers and all, without exception, apparently they have what the tax is charged or when the exchange rates are taken from the banks for the service . Therefore, in any store you can try to pay in cash U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of 1:1. We are not just rolled in the souvenir shops, and boutiques such as Louis Vuitton. So there is a good opportunity to save money. And you can still get a tax free for about 9%.
