Colorado & Arizona

Hello!

As you see, I will be writing about Colorado&Arizona this time. Colorado has a diverse geography - mountains, plains, deserts with big sand dunes and deep canyons. Because of that, the climate in more complex it this state. I think it is a perfect place for nature lovers ;) Sometimes  the earthquake occurs there because of its mountainous terrain.

Colorado Desert

Arizona has an upland terrain and in north part of is a Colorado Plateau the climate in Arizona is dry, tropical and subtropical.. The temperatures are very high. The desert steppes with cactuses  are creating a plant life.

One of the biggest tourist attraction in Arizona is, of course, The Grand Canyon. It's a steep-sided canyon by the Colorado River in Arizona. The Grand Canyon is 446 km long and 29 km wide. This terrain is a Grand Canyon National Park. There are different hypothesis when it comes to the creation of this canyon. The most popular says that it was a very long process who had commenced 17 millions years ago and the canyon was becoming deeper and deeper. There is also a completely different version which says that the canyon was formed in a few days. But the most important is that today we can see an impressive huge canyon in USA!

The Grand Canyon

I think it's the most noteworthy place when it comes to these regions, both very dry and desert. I think it's a great place for those who are passionate about nature.

That all for day. See you next time :)

The most popular inscription in the world

Hi!

Today's next part of California's description. So, let's continue this trip :)

Hollywood

Perfectly visible from the Lee mountain. We can only imagine how 9 white letters can create the most popular place in California where everyone would like to have a photo. In addition, this inscription is visible from almost every place in Beverly Hills. There is also the Avenue of Stars - a pavement with a brass stars with the names of famous and respected people. It's a tourist attraction since 1958.

Death Valley

The hottest place in America.A picturesque desert with the highest temperatures.The climate is very dry. The valley is situated in the south of California with the Panamint mountain range around. There are some rivers like Salt Creek or Furnace Creek and Badwater lake with unusual fauna. The valley became a National Park in 1994.

That's all for today.

See you next time!

Los Angeles

Hello!

It's a triptime! This time it's LA - a city of dreams for many people. This is a place where you can live your American Dream :) The best adjectives to describe this place? Undoubtedly luxurious, popular and hot ☀ In Los Angeles lives many artists, especially actors, singers, directors and, of course, celebrities. This place is perfect for holidays - beautiful, hot beaches, palm trees, ocean - sounds perfect, but also very expensive.

                          
                           Venice Beach

Famous Venice Beach is a must-see in LA. The same concerns a pedestrian zone - Ocean Front Walk - a place which is teeming in life, full of music, artists, in general, there's a mix of languages, cultures, races and religions.
And, of course, there is a lot of surfers in LA. Surfing is very popular right there - it's a real California lifestyle.

                        
                        Ocean Front Walk

The centre of the city is full of skyscrapers - typical business area. However, the traffic jam is unavoidable in Los Angeles.

Beverly Hills

One of the richest quarters in USA.Very clean and perfect place, exotic vegetation, flowers and luxurious cars standing in front of every house - that's Beverly Hills. There's also a Rodeo Dive - the most expensive street in USA where you can meet a lot of celebrities doing their shopping in the best stores in the world.

That's all for today but I will describe the rest of Los Angeles next time.

See you!

Hello again!

Hi!

I'm coming back after holidays. It was a good time for me, I've started working in a new place and I've been to Cyprus - I think one of the most beautiful place in the world. I haven't spent there a long time but it was enough to see the charm of that place. I can recommend Cyprus in 100 %. Accurately, I was in Limassol and the main reason why I went there with my family was my cousin's wedding which took place on a pier. It was an amazing and unforgettable experience. It was something completely different, different climate, different wedding, different place, different world. The dream world. I wish I was there one more time, maybe not exactly in Limassol because there are another places to see as well, just like Larnaca or Nicosia - I've described those places a few months ago so you can find that post and read about Cyprus :)

When it comes to my blog, I'm going to continue California's description and many other noteworthy places in America.

See you!

California

Hello everyone!

As I said last time, I'm going to describe my favourite states in North America. The best place for me is California - sunny and hot place by the ocean is a dream. In general, California is the most populous state in US. There are two the biggest cities - San Francisco and Los Angeles. Today I'll write a little about San Francisco. So, let's start!

Alcatraz

One of the most famous prisons in the world with a strict discipline. Since years it's one of the most popular touristic attractions. The prison was active between 1934 and 1963. Reportedly, it is said that  nobody escaped from there. Officially, it is said that 14 people escaped.

Golden Gate Bridge

It's a suspension bridge, one-mile-wide and one-point-seven-mile-long channel between San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. It's very recognized symbol of San Francisco. It is said that it is "possibly the most beautiful, certainly the most photographed bridge in the world". It's very impressive for me, I would love to see that bridge.

Chinatown

The oldest Chinatown is in North America and the largest outside Asia. It's an enclave that reflect a chinese history and culture. There are two hospitals, parks, squares and many others.

That's all for today, I'll continue soon.

See you!

Different direction

Hello!

Lately I've realised that I'm writing a lot about Europe. I thought - it's time to change it. Of course, not forever, but now it's time to "go" somewhere else :) And I have a new idea - I'll write about America! South and North America are both beautiful and noteworthy. Especially, I would like to see California, but it's not the only one state which I'm going to describe. :) There's a lot of places which I would like to post here, particularly in North America. When it comes to South America, I've already written about Brazil. I think I've described all places in Europe which I like the most,I know that there is many other amazing countries, but I'm not able to describe every charming place. That's because the world is full of beauty, there are always some places to discover and explore. When I'm writing about different countries, it's also a motivation for me to learn more about the world, to find more amazing cities, mountains or bays and many, many others. I'm very happy about that I've chosen writing about travelling because it's a never-ending topic.
I hope it's also interesting for you, just a little bit :)
So, next time we're starting America's tour!

See you!

Croatia - part 3

Hello everyone!

What's up? Hope you're fine. Today I'll finish a Croatia's description. Hope it's interesting for you :) So, let's go!

Pula

We're back to Istria - on the South side. It's the biggest city on this island, a perfect place for mediaval Old Town lovers. in Pula you can see the most spectacular Roman monuments. Formerly, it was one of the most important metropolis by the Adriatic.

The amphitheatre has survived and today it's a third the best extant monument of its type. A huge building made of marble makes an enormous impression on tourists. 

Split

Split is the second biggest city in Croatia. The biggest attraction in Split are ruins of a gigantic imperial palace. The decond noteworthy monument is a characteristic cathedral guerded by sphinx and lions.

Mljet

Mljet is an island situated between Dubrovnik and Korcula. It's one of the most green islands by the Adriatic. This island was announced a National Park.

Paklenica National Park

For most of tourists Croatia - it's just a sea and Dubrovnik. It's also a country with amazing mountains, maybe not very high, but very picturesque. Paklenica with two krast canyons is one of the best places like this which you can see in Croatia.

Velka Paklenica is 14km long and next is a shorter one - Mala Paklenica. 

In this National Park we won't find a crowd of tourists. I think it's an advantage of this place, thanks to that it's more unique and worth to see.

Makarska

In the end, Makarska - situated by the sea. There is no Roman or medieval monuments, there is no Old Town. There is so much more tourists who just want to spend time at the beach and sunbathe.

There is the sea and the mountains (called Biokovo) in one place. A perfect place to sit under palm trees or take a walk and relax.

That's all about Croatia. I hope it will be interesting for you. Now I have to think about another place. 

See you next time!
