VANCOUVER

Friday February 3rd, 2017   VANCOUVER   No comments

Vancouver is synonymous with both natural and urban beauty, thanks to its dedication to smart city planning and preserving green space. The city’s West End is the trendy culmination of these efforts—filled with sleek residential towers, bordered by the mid-city wilderness of Stanley Park, and dotted with enough great places to eat and drink to please everyone.

The center of business and transit in Vancouver is undoubtedly its downtown neighborhood, but further along the central peninsula lies West End, in many ways the true center of the modern Vancouver. In contrast to the picturesque harbors and post-industrial grit of downtown or historic Gastown, the West End seems almost futuristic in its picture-perfect version of modern city living. It is characterized by beaches, pristine towers and dense scatterings of shops and restaurants that exude an upscale sort of bohemia that’s difficult to find anywhere else.

DISCOVER ROME

Friday January 6th, 2017   VISIT ROME   No comments

The construction of the largest amphitheater of the Roman Empire was started by Vespasian in 72 AD. This building was planned to change the relationship between power and people from then on: entertainment and distraction offered to the populace for free. It may be two thousand years old but the Colosseum is still the symbol of the eternal city, every year drawing thousands of visitors, meaning long queues and an endless wait.It was used for gladiator fights and hunting simulations involving ferocious and exotic animals. The capacity is estimated around 70.000 people; the shows became occasions to impress and control the people through an unforeseen display of astonishing special effects. Today it is possible to visit and understand how the underground theatrical system worked, with hoists, ramps and trapdoors, in order to present the animals, gladiators and scenery machineries to an overwhelmed crowd. Find out the unbelievable engineering techniques that allowed ancient Romans to complete this massive structure, that has reached us today, in less than 10 years.

DISCOVER PARIS

Thursday January 5th, 2017   VISIT PARIS   No comments

Begin with a coffee on the Champs-Elysées, then take a gentle stroll down to the Eiffel Tower along the avenue Marceau, passing the famous flame of the Pont de l’Alma. From the top of the Tower, you’ll be treated to an unrestricted view over Paris. Then, hop onto one of the river boats moored just below and glide down the Seine as far as Notre-Dame. When you’ve finished your visit of the cathedral, it’ll be time for a lunch break. The Louvre is just half an hour away and awaits you for a made-to-measure tour around the major works of art. As you leave, the day will be drawing to a close over the footbridge des Arts, the Pont Neuf and the Institut de France… Cross over the river and make your way to Odéon metro station which will lead you straight to the Montmartre hill where you can enjoy an exceptional panorama over the city and its monuments, illuminated at nightfall.
