			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/The-City-View-of-Barcelona.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-657" src="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/The-City-View-of-Barcelona.jpg" alt="" width="205" height="155" /></a>Barcelona, the second largest city in Spain, is undoubtedly a city for all tastes. The city filled with parks, museums, buildings and an extensive collection of architectural monuments, one dares to say that the city, with more than two thousand years of culture, is the cultural capital of the country.</p>
<p>Situated on the Mediterranean coast, Barcelona has always had importance as a port. In recent years, its importance has increased since it was proclaimed global city.</p>
<p>One of the most famous of Barcelona is undoubtedly the expiatory temple of the Holy Family. La Sagrada Familia was begun on April 19, 1882, from the idea of Francisco de Paula del Villar, but at the end of 1883 was commissioned Antoni Gaudí who design and construction. Today, 126 years later, the Sagrada Familia is still not finished, yet it is the most recognized symbol of the city, famous for its unique architecture and symbolism present in all the sculptures and building facades.</p>
<p>Another of Gaudi&#8217;s masterpieces was the Park Güell. Built between 1900 and 1914, was opened in 1922. He is known for its architectural elements with religious symbolism and geometric themes. This park is, since 1984, a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.</p>
<p>Mount Tibidabo, the highest point of the city, is a place worth visiting. At 512 meters tall, the mountain offers great views of the city. The first amusement park in Spain, the Tibidabo Amusement Park, built in 1899, also is located there, and makes available to smaller ones like the older ones an opportunity for family fun in an outdoor environment. Outside the park is the funicular and tram, connecting the mountain with the rest of the city.</p>
<p>Mount Montjuic is another tourist place one must visit if you have the chance. Located in the southwest of the city, there is the Palace of Montjuic and the National Museum of Catalan Art. The Poble Espanyol was a microcosm originally created to represent Spain in Catalonia during the International Exposition of 1929, but this fusion of architecture and craftworks of Spain is still a major attraction of the place.</p>
<p>One of the key moments in the history of the city was the 1992 Olympic Games. And it was built the Olympic Village in Poble Nou. Nearby is the Olympic Port Olympic yl&#8217;Anella, sports stadiums that were built or upgraded specifically for the Olympics. For sports fans, not just this part of the city they&#8217;ll be interested, but also one of the most important stages, the Montjuic Olympic Stadium, the site of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Barcelona. The Palau Sant Jordi and the famous Nou Camp is place to visit for those who relish the sport.</p>
<p>For lovers of theater, the Teatre Nacional de Catalunya, opened in 1996, is a magical place. Its two rooms, the great classical amphitheater as to ensure greater visibility and small, mobile galleries to accommodate the different scenarios, like workshops, provide greater interaction with the actors.</p>

This ancient city dating back nearly two millennia ago is a real city with the essence of Gothic Germany.</p>
<p>Even the poet Petrarch in the fourteenth century, thought that this city noted for its breathtaking beauty. Cologne is a city that is famous for its great cathedral, the famous Cologne Cathedral, one of the oldest and most impressive in Europe. The cathedral, with two domes, is one of the major attractions of the city and climb to the top, one will have to climb the 509 steps up to the gallery, which is over 170 meters above the ground, and the structure built by the world&#8217;s tallest man. It took more than 600 years to build the cathedral, or Duomo, begun to be built on Roman ruins after Frederick Barbarossa donate the supposed relics of the Three Kings. This made the city became, before the twelfth century, a major center of pilgrimage in the region. Moreover, even today you can still see the relics, found near the altar of the Cathedral of Cologne.</p>
<p>Beside the famous cathedral is the impressive Germany-Roman Museum, a building that was a hiding place for civilians during the air battles of World War II. During this time discovered perfectly preserved remains of an ancient Roman mosaic still remains and can be viewed at the museum.</p>
<p>Nearby, in the center and the historic city center, two museums are more futuristic and contemporary art, Wallraf-Richartz Museum and the Museum Ludwig. The Wallraf-Richartz Museum we can find a wide and interesting collection of art from the XIV and XX, while in the Ludwig Museum we can find the most exclusive art of the twentieth century, which almost rivals the legendary Guggenheim Museum New York. In both museums you can see exclusive works of the best artists and painters, as well as several permanent and temporary exhibitions of different styles.</p>
<p>One of the best hotels in the city is also located in this magical area of the city center. The Dom Hotel is an architectural monument in itself because it is almost attached to the cathedral. Here one can enjoy a luxurious and comfortable stay, as to the decor reminds us that we are part of the world. We recommend visiting the famous and elegant coffee Atelier am Dom, a café glass walls covered with the best views of the cathedral and the famous Petersglocke, the huge 24 ton bell that marks the hours while you enjoy the views.</p>
<p>The city is famous for its beer, Kölsch, sold in all restaurants and markets in the city. In addition, the city has a broad cultural landscape, which highlights its many museums and concert halls. Cologne is a city also known for its Carnival which starts every November 11 at 11:11 hours.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Yakutsk-the-Coldest-City-in-the-World.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-597" src="http://www.jbfchina2008.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Yakutsk-the-Coldest-City-in-the-World-300x198.jpg" alt="" width="228" height="161" /></a>Yakutsk is a city located in Siberia, Russia, and is considered one of the coldest cities in the world. The small city with 200,000 inhabitants is the capital of the Sakha Republic and the largest city in the region. The city is a mix of cultures, home to both the descendants of Russians from the west, which came to the region to work in the mines of gold and diamonds, and the Yakut, who for years were nomadic. The city can reach -55 º C, although the locals are accustomed to such frigid temperatures.</p>
<p>The city, founded in 1632, initially was a strong Cossack. He later became a prominent city where, in the nineteenth century, were discovered gold and diamond mines. Now here are many companies engaged in mining of these two materials.</p>
<p>The city even today is a mixture of traditional cultures. While many traditions were lost during the years before perestroika, the Evenki and Yakut still form an important part of the population.

Today you can see traditional houses, or yurts, in nearby towns. Several of them preserve the tradition of olonkho, a traditional form of writing and reciting poetry on the life of the people of Sakha. Another trend is important are the ewenki, another nomadic people who lived in cuoluozi, large tents. Even today they are representatives of these peoples, traditionally engaged in raising horses.</p>
<p>In this city you can recognize the descendants of nomadic hunters and reindeer that once roamed the icy region each year. Most people wear fur coats, and there a topic as controversial as the hunting of animals for their fur clothing is not a problematic issue, because wearing fur here is not a luxury but a necessity.</p>
<p>The city is connected with other towns along the road Lena, but getting there should take the ferry along the river in summer or cross the frozen river in winter. Many people visit this region when excursions to Lake Baikal. Therefore, both Yakutsk and the wider region attract many eco-tourists and scientists. It recommends visiting the nearby town of Magan, a traditional village where even today preserves the traditions typical of Yakut, such as reindeer husbandry.</p>
<p>Yakutsk has a few theaters and museums. Highlights include the Museum of the Mammoth and museums devoted to history and culture of the Sakha region. Another famous site is the theater of Sakha, or Sakha, who now has a new building located in one of the most important squares, the Plaza Oyuunsky. It is worth visiting the Spassky Monastery, which dates from 1664.</p>
<p>Another landmark of the city is Kulakovsky Street, one of the main streets. Yakutsk University hosts the Academy of Sciences of Russia, and has one of the major centers of study cosmofísica and permafrost.</p>
<p>For the cold steppes of this part of Siberia can still find ancient towers of the fortresses. There is Several Ostrog dating from 1683. The Lensky Ostrog, or strong Lensky, who later became the city, was founded in 1632.</p>
<p>Yakutsk is without doubt one of the coldest cities on Earth, where the average temperature of -10 º C. slashing During the long winter months, the city reaches -50 degrees C, although during the short summer months the temperature may surprise more than 30 º C.</p>
<p>The Lena River, which runs from the city, attracts many tourists during the summer months. Several cruise ships pass through the city, and tourists can enjoy the beauty of Siberian nature. The best views can be enjoyed near the Lena Pillars. The pillars are a rock formation that taper along the side of the river Lena.</p>
