Travel routes to Europe by road – Part II

In total, 830 km, which is passed through places such as Cologne (you have to stop to see, or yes, the Cathedral, the masterpiece of the Gothic style) and Nuremberg (on a quick tour on foot you can enjoy milestones such as the Street of Human Rights, the home of painter Albrecht Dürer and the old town stalls, selling delicious sausages seem to be typical of the city). At a leisurely pace the journey takes just over seven hours, so it is safe evening you can enjoy the Gothic tower of the City of Munich appearing on the horizon.

Travel routes on the road to Europe – Part I

Europe is, by far, the site of the world’s most attractive per square meter. There, a small town any monastery houses a millennium, the most unexpected way leads to a medieval castle, next to the smallest brook stands a Roman aqueduct and behind the most anonymous of the hills lies a five-star Michelin restaurant. And these are things that are not seen from the plane, but at ground level. Europe air travel between cities jumping may be convenient, fast or relaxed, but it makes you lose everything in between, which is a lot.

Travel south of Peru

The discovery of a country with a great variety of climates, landscapes and people, such as Peru, demand more than one trip.

Perhaps the approach to wholesale travel agencies, looking for a proven infrastructure, has boosted the city of New Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh by the lure of the Taj Mahal in Agra, and as much a trip to see the contrasts of the mythical and mystical Varanasi (Benares). But India has much to do and not just the places mentioned above there is also the entire strip of the (más…)

In recent decades, with the rise of computers, the city of Bangalore, the Karnataka state capital, has emerged as one of the major centers of technological innovation worldwide, especially in the field of communication and information. Large multinationals, including Microsoft’s powerful major centers have settled there. One of the reasons for the success of the “Indian Silicon Valley” has been the intellectual and scientific ability of computer scientists and mathematicians of the place. But if at the present time the city Bangalore is leading this area of the Indian subcontinent, in a not too distant past was the cities that stood out and Halebid Mysore (135 km southwest and 200 km west of Bangalore, respectively).
