CAVE HOTEL TURKEY

In the magical landscape of fairy tales of Cappadocia, the ancient village of Urgup – Turkey, there is a unique hotel carved into a cliff, the Hotel Yunak Evleri. The hotel includes six cave houses and 30 rooms, dating from the fifth and sixth centuries. These exceptional cave houses were decorated in their own distinctive style, with respect for local nature. The decor is elegant and personalized with handmade furniture and antiques. Yunak Evleri has created a peaceful balance of comfort / modernity and tradition. Conveniently located in the center of Urgup, Yunak Evleri is a perfect base for daily excursions within Cappadocia.

The Hobbit House of Monatana

The Hobbit House of Monatana, located in a man-made shire built by LOTR enthusiast Steve Michaels and his wife Christine, is a must-see attraction for any self-respecting Tolkien fan.

This isn’t the first time someone builds a real-life hobbit house, but this particular house situated in the hillsides of northwest Montana is actually a tourist guesthouse available for only $245 a night. So if you’ve always wanted to see what it’s like to live as a hobbit, now’s your chance. But unlike the simple homes featured in J.R.R. Tolkien’s novels, the Hobbit House of Montana comes with a modern king-size bedroom, designer kitchen with customized granite counters, HD Blu-Ray television set, XM Radio, three phones and WiFi. The LOTR theme, however, is everywhere, from the little rock handles on the drawers, to the Gandalf stained glass doors, or The One Ring dangling from the loft.

نقطة التقاء نهري نيجرو والأمازون

أحد أجمل الظواهر الطبيعية في مدينة مانوس البرازيلية، أكبر مدن حوض الأمازون، هي
مكان التقاء الماء بالماء وهى مكان اتصال نهر نيجرو بنهر الأمازون، حيث يلتقى مجرى
الماء لكل من النهرين اللذين يبعدان عشرات الأميال عن بعضهما من دون أن يختلطا في
ظاهرة طبيعية ساحرة وعجيبة في ذات الوقت كما ذكرت مجلة «وسع صدرك».

ونهر نيجرو يبدو بلون غامق لوجود أحماض بنسبة عالية ناتجة عن اضمحلال النباتات،
أما النهر على اليمين فهو نهر الأمازون وتبدو مياهه الموحلة بلون فاتح ناتج عن
ترسبات جبال الأنديز.

يختلف كذلك النهران بدرجة الحرارة وسرعة الجريان فمياه نهر نيجرو أدفأ من مياه
نهر الأمازون وفى المقابل سرعة تدفق مياه الأمازون أسرع مما هي عليه في نهر نيجرو،
هذه العوامل مجتمعة تسببت في عدم اختلاط مياه النهرين مع بعضهما واستمرار هذه
الظاهرة الطبيعية المدهشة.

يعتبر مكان التقاء الماء بالماء أحد أكثر الأماكن الذي يتوافد عليها السياح
الذين يركبون القوارب لمشاهدة هذه الظاهرة عن قرب. يمتد مكان الالتقاء لمسافة أربعة
كيلومترات ويبعد عن وسط مدينة مانوس مسافة ست ساعات بالسيارة

Longsheng Rice Terraces In China

Longsheng Rice Terraces. The terraces are about a 2 hour drive from Guilin, Guangxi, China and coil around the mountain to look like dragon scales. They were mostly built during the Ming Dynasty (about 500 years ago), but still hold enormous cultural value. The green shoots are said to be most beautiful in June, but are certainly a worthy sight all summer long.
