Martin Luther, who was also ordained a priest in the Augustinian Chapel in 1506, remains one of the most famous residents of the town in the German federal state of Thuringia. Erfurt is justifiably proud of Luther and also of other famous residents, such as the organist Johann Pachelbel.
"Do what you really want" is the motto of Austria's southernmost federal state, which is not difficult between the expanses from Heiligenblut to Mokrin and from Bad Kleinkirchheim to the Mölltal glacier. Skiers will certainly not be bored on the 1,031 kilometers of alpine trails.
The theme of the largest world exhibition to date, in which 242 countries and international organizations have already confirmed their participation, is "Better City, Better Life", and the mascot, called Haibao, represents humanity, which plays a major role in the development and observance of the slogan of the exhibition.
The Marais is set in a triangle formed by L'Hôtel de Ville (City Hall), La Place de la Bastille (symbol of the French Revolution) and La Place de la République (headquarters of the French Republican Guard). It spreads over the third and fourth arrondissements of Paris, and over time its meaning has varied considerably.
But just a few decades ago, the story of this city in the south of Sweden was completely different: a port city in which the Kockums company reigned - one of the largest shipyards in the world, golden times in the 1970s and then a sharp fall into recession in the mid-1980s.
The new Slovenian tourist portal visitslovenia.net, which is the result of three years of in-house development, saw the light of day in May 2009.

The city's most famous culinary specialty - the well-known hamburger made famous in America by German emigrants - is not the best advertisement for the excellent culinary offer of this old Hanseatic city. In a city as ethnically mixed as Hamburg, where more than 250,000 foreigners are officially registered, i.e. almost as many as the entire population of Ljubljana, foreigners make up almost 15 percent of the people.
Tel-Aviv means Spring Hill in Hebrew, but despite its name, there is not a single hill in the city, so you can find a cafe almost every 50 meters and you can't go hungry in the city. The conglomerate of Jewish immigrants, practically from all over the globe, brought with them their languages, culture, customs and, of course, recipes...
The city with an impressive history was given its name by the Greeks. The name, which has nothing to do with the banana split dessert, was named after the Aspalatos bush (Cytisus scoparius), a shrub that grows all over Dalmatia and colors the surroundings with its vibrant yellow flowers in June.
Visiting the Acropolis does not mean that we have discovered the Greek capital. In fact, the crowd on the most famous hill above Athens is so unbearable that all of us who want to really get to know the charms of this Mediterranean metropolis, the time we would spend visiting the Acropolis can be better spent in one of the attractive galleries.
Iran's third largest city with more than one and a half million inhabitants is dedicated to refreshing people's perception of beauty, at least that's what Robert Byron, a British writer, thought. In Esfahan, it is rare to find a street without a tree line, fountains or flowers, and at every corner you can meet remnants of the past.
Colonial cities such as the old part of Ponce, the lush greenery of the El Yunque rainforest, endless sandy beaches such as Playa de Luquillo, and attractive towns such as San Juan are clustered in an archipelago consisting of the main island of Puerto Rico and several smaller islands such as Vieques, Culebra and Mona.
