Today I bring you to the beautiful Croatian capital – Zagreb. When we talk about Croatia, we think about the Adriatic coast, Dubrovnik, or Pula, etc. Although as a capital, Zagreb is somehow overlooked by the visitors to this country. It’s true that Zagreb is not any close to the seaside. Still I find it a pity that it has been neglected by the visitors because it actually has a lot to offer, sights, architectures, cafes, restaurants, etc. In my opinion it’s totally comparable to its (sort of)neighbor cities, such as Prague and Budapest.
Brick Lane in LDN City
Today I take you to my favorite area in London city – Brick Lane. It’s a district in East London. It’s among the most vibrant district in London. Because it it is the heart of the city’s Bangladeshi-Sylheti community. Brick Lane is also known as Banglatown. The area is not only famous for its many curry restaurants, but also the vintage markets, galleries, street art and food market. It’s young, cultural, artistic and full of life.
Slovak Medieval Devin Castle
Today I take you to a On a sunny day during my trip in Bratislava, I went on a day trip to Devin Castle. From Bratislava city you can easily catch bus No. 28 or 29 or you can also take a Danube cruise that runs twice a day. The castle itself is in ruins, with mini medieval pop up stands where you can enjoy the stunning views of the remains of the castle and the surrounding landscape. Not a ruin or historical site fan to be honest, but I liked it, especially for the views upon the confluence of Danube and Morava rivers.
Trip to Claude Monet’s Home and Gardens in Giverny
Today I went on a day trip to Claude Monet’s House and Gardens in Giverny. I’ve heard about Monet’s story of Giverny before and I always wanted to visit it one day. Monet noticed Giverny while looking out of a train window. Later he rented a house at the area. In 1890 he gathered enough money to buy the house and created the magnificent gardens he wanted to paint. I’ve seen many of his paintings he painted in the garden before, which made me want to visit Giverny one day. Claude Monet is not only a genius impressionist painter, but also a very talented gardener. His garden in Giverny is all gardeners’ dream. The gardens were filled with beautiful flowers. Some I had never seen before.
