Wilderness Without Bounds: Magnificent Russian Far East

admin — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 20:01:46 +0000

Wilderness without bounds, in a typical Russian style.

There is a place in the world so remote and so wildly beautiful, that very few decide to go there and those who do, carry the enchantment for the rest of their lives. A land of towering volcanoes and magnificent Pacific coastline, as boundless and pristine as the Canadian North, but far less known and definitely less traveled. Life is harsh there, and the ghosts of the communist past are never too far behind.

With the exclusive permission of “Kamtravel” – Kamchatka photography site, we give you some examples of its exhilarating terrain (click to enlarge)

Charming Mont Saint-Michel

admin — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 14:49:17 +0000

If you visit only one castle this year, make it this one.

Mount Saint-Michel is located on a tidal island in Normandy, France. It is home to the unusual Benedictine Abbey and its steepled church (built between the 11th and 16th centuries), daringly placed at the top of the mount.

Many underground crypts and chapels had to be built to compensate for this weight. The tides in the area can vary greatly, at roughly 14 metres between high and low water marks.
