The first mountain is Huaynu Picchu, and the second is Machu Picchu, which is much less frequently visited by tourists. To climb to its top, you need to overcome a height difference of about 500 m. The path is a stone path, which consists of 1700 steps and the usual ascent to it takes 1.5 hours. The view of the city from the top is amazing!

Statue of Christ the Redeemer, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
(click on the link or image below - the panorama will open in a new window)



Rio de Janeiro has its own symbol - a statue of Christ the Redeemer. On the 700-meter mountain of Corcovado stands a gigantic figure of Christ, spreading his arms over the city, as if blessing this land. Every year, almost 2 million tourists and locals climb to the top of the mountain to take pictures in front of the “for good luck” monument. The exact dimensions of the monument to Christ the Redeemer in Rio are: height - 38 meters, including the pedestal - 8 meters; weight - 1145 tons, arm span - 30 meters. It is generally accepted that the idea of ​​its creation arose in 1922, when the 100th anniversary of Brazil's independence was celebrated. However, in fact, the history of the statue goes back to a more distant past...



"Paris is a holiday that is always with you." So said the famous American writer Ernest Hemingway, and probably every person can subscribe to these words - no matter whether he has been there or not. Paris is a symbol of romance and the cradle of European culture.



Dubai traces its history back to the 7th century, but few people associate this largest city of the United Arab Emirates with antiquity. Its most capacious characteristic is the "City of the Future": after all, nowhere on the planet is there so many incredible architectural structures, ultra-modern and even ahead of their time.



The Church of the Intercession on the Nerl (1165) near the village of Bogolyubovo is the greatest monument of Russian architecture. Included in the UNESCO World Heritage Site called "White Stone Monuments of Vladimir and Suzdal". This outstanding landmark of Russia is built on a man-made hill at the confluence of the Nerl and Klyazma rivers. The floods of the river are resisted by the foundation of a special structure, extending five meters deep into the hill. It is surprising that the temple was erected in just a year - in the life of Andrei Bogolyubsky it is indicated: “make this church in one summer and make a monastery for monks with it.” It follows from the chronicle that the temple is associated with the victorious campaign of the Vladimirians against the Bulgars and the death of the son of Prince Andrei - Prince Izyaslav. Until our time, the temple survived miraculously.
