  The building of Russian Orthodox Church in Florence was designed by two architects Preobrashenskij and Boccini and looks similar in appearance with the St Basil’s cathedral in Moscow.

  Bari, where I went actually just because of Saint Nicholas, impressed me very much. I did not expect and I had never seen before  such deep and many-sided contrasts of a city……..
  historical spirit of Roman times – and noise of modern city in 15 minutes to walk….
  dazzling white stone walls of old houses, palm-trees and [...]

  I thought this was rather annoying at the time of the picture because it was making the traffic move slowly and it was hot, but now looking back I think it’s rather funny and fair to allow everbody on the road with their own unique form of transportation.

  I like that Indonesia it is emphasized to protect the animals that are part of the same world as us.  It is possibly an aspect of their culture that is influenced by the religion practiced there.

  I would argue that anything that is completely out of the ordinary for someone is probably a representation of an altogether different culture.  You could go thirty miles and see a completely different society or you could go to Indoneisa and have a monkey pinch your nose, hard…either way it’s experiencing a new culture.

  Sky lanterns in Florence sky…
  Very fascinating scene! Whole sky is like strewed with gigantic fireworks! They all move with almost the same speed, and it’s just makes you hypnotic.
  And it is only airborne for as long as the flame stays alight.Â

  In Sousse (Tunisia) you can visit a wonderful old market place- Medina. When you cross its stone walls, you will feel like you have stepped back in time. The Medina is labyrinth of small alley ways lined with stands. It is easy to get lost there. But if you really want to feel the atmosphere [...]
