For some people there is nothing so exciting
as traveling, and I’m not an exception. Surely, travelling
is interesting, attractive .You can see new different places. There are many reasons to love it. The first: You visit other counters and get more useful information about this country, its nation, languages & so on. The second reason you have a lot of opportunities to relax. Sometimes it is necessary to leave your house & just have a rest.

I think, that nothing can be compared with
traveling by air, because it is the most convenient,
and, of course, the quickest way of moving. There is none of the dust and dirt of a railway or car journey, none of the trouble.
Sometimes I travel by the train. With a train you have a comfort and speed combined. From a comfortable corner seat of a railway carriage you have a splendid view of a countryside. And besides I like this transport since my childhood. For me it is rather romantic way of moving.

It is also good to try to leave
the dull, broad highway and explore little winding lanes
where cars can’t go… This is the best way to see the real country, to enjoy fresh air, and to feel the quietness and calm of nature. I managed to try this things many years ago in Abkhazia . My voyage included extreme tours along the mountain river and facing local culture. Most remarkable are serpentine roads and my birthday party on the beach.

I like travelling. When I spend a
holiday in travelling I always take a camera with
me and photograph everything that interests or pleases me: the sights of a city, views of mountains, lakes, valleys; the ruins of ancient buildings. Some years later that will remind me the happy time that I had. As a rule, I make new friends during travelling. In the day-time we play volleyball, and take part in other activities swim in the warm water of the sea and sunbathe. In the evening I like to sit on the beach watching the sea and enjoying the sunset.

When I was a little girl every holiday
that I had seemed to be perfect. In those
far-off days the sun seemed to shine constantly and the water was always warm. All day I played on the sands with my friends. We made sandcastles with huge yellow walls. Sometimes we left the beach and walked in the country. Although I am now an adult, my idea of a good holiday is much the same as it was. I still like the sun and the warm sand and the sound of waves breaking on the beach. And sometimes I even want to build sandcastles any longer but still I like sunbathing and the feeling that sand is running through my fingers.
Слайд 7
And of course when I saw the sea
for the first time it seemed to me really
impressive .
It was the Black Sea, a small town nearby Sochi. It is not surprising because the Black Sea is one of the most wonderful places which attracts holiday-makers all over the world. We rented a furnished house for a couple of weeks there. Sometimes, we just lay under tent on the sea shore enjoying fresh air and the sun all day long.

However, I had much more fan & relax
on the shore of the Red Sea. I visited
Egypt twice in winter and in summer. Even their revolution couldn’t spoil my impression of this rest. The main activity in Hurghada is to lie on the beach all day but for those who want some activity just like me there are a lot of opportunities snorkeling trips, dive trips and water sports.
In the morning I got up early for getting seashells but most of all I enjoyed jumping over the waves . I advice you to take a cruise along the Nile – it’s inexpensive, and amazingly beautiful
Слайд 9
Cultural and historical tourist attractions in Hurghada are
thus few, but there is plenty to do for
the active traveler. But I made a short trip to Luxor. As the site of the Ancient Egyptian city of Thebes, Luxor is frequently characterized as the "world's greatest open air museum"as the ruins of the temple complexes at Karnak and Luxor stand within the modern city. So Egypt sightseeing is the wonderful experience of the glorious antiquity of past time and modern era. Egypt is one among the very few countries in the world that has many cities with so much historic value.
Слайд 10
There is the Valley of the Queens and
the Valley of the Kings, places where several pharaohs
were buried especially the New Kingdom and its value is largely symbolic for the visitor though history buffs will find this an interesting place to explore.
It would be hard to visit Egypt and not pay tribute to Luxor and the Valley of the Kings.Walking into the chambers of the great Pharaohs of Egypt and viewing the combination of artwork and hieroglyphs is truly amazing. I was happy to see all this because I have red a lot of myths about this places.
Слайд 11
My recent holidays I spent in Spain. It
was Salou pretty small town .It is situated on
the seashore of Spain in the Mediterranean sea. I lived in a little hotel nearby the seashore. Every evening in the embankment a lot of small restaurants were opened. It was very pleasant to walk along the shore & breath salt sea air. It was a lovely picturesque place. I liked it very mach. I was really impressed by it.
Слайд 12
I also had a chance to visit the
capital of Catalonia. In my opinion Barcelona, more than
just a single city, is really a collection of multi-faceted and diverse cities. The visitor unfamiliar with its history might be surprised that such a modern and enterprising city preserves its historic Gothic center almost intact, or by the curious contrast between the maze of narrow streets and buildings of the modern urban planning. Barcelona's old city is, without doubt, one of the nicest and most romantic of Europe. Its small streets, shops, the air you breathe, everything invites you to wander around, getting to know every place of this charming area.
Слайд 13
The most notable places are Las Ramblas I
which s a tree-lined pedestrian boulevard packed with living
statues , mimes and architectural monuments. Next door is La Rambla's most colourful market, the Mercat de la Boqueria.. La Rambla terminates at the lofty Monument a Colom (Monument to Columbus) and the harbour. As for the ancient architecture the Barri Gotic contains a concentration of medieval Gothic buildings only a few blocks northeast of La Rambla, and furthermore it is the nucleus of old Barcelona.
Слайд 14
La Sagrada Familia is also truly awe-inspiring -
even if you don't have much time, don't miss
it. The life's work of Antoni Gaudí, the magnificent spires of the unfinished cathedral imprint themselves boldly against the sky with swelling outlines inspired by the holy mountain Montserrat.
Слайд 15
Montjuic, the hill overlooking the city centre from
the southwest, is home to some fine art galleries,
leisure attractions, among them are very beautiful singing fountains.
Moreover Barcelona is certainly among Europe's cities of style. It is a natural magnet for the fashion-conscious and there is no shortage of design outlets for even the most tireless consumer.
Слайд 16
Two years ago I made the acquaintance
of Dresden. This city on the Elbe, once known
as the “Florence of the North,” cultural treasures, lively restaurants and trendy shops coexist with the residue of a dark history.. Today it is very much a sightseer's destination with some fantastic buildings. It has two main sections, the Neustadt (“new town,” which is actually older than the “old town”) on the right bank of the Elbe and the Altstadt (“old town”) on the left bank.
Слайд 17
Frauenkirche | Standing again proudly on Neumarkt square,
Dresden’s Church of Our Lady is an architectural icon.
The Zwinger | This courtyard complex was originally built as the forecourt of a castle. Today it is a pleasant place to wander about and enjoy the architecture that surrounds it. The Zwinger is home to the Semper Art Gallery, the Porcelain Collection, and several other museums.
Слайд 18
Dresden and the name “Semper Oper House” are
inseparable.,Don’t miss guided tours which offer a glimpse inside.
These places are also worth seeing:
The Brühlsche Terrasse above the Elbe River is somewhat called “Europe’s Balcony.” Originally designed as a private garden for the Saxon Count Brühl, this promenade is now the best place to enjoy good views of the Neustadt . Der FürsteThe “Procession of Princes” in Dresden which is a remarkable panorama made up of porcelain tiles which distinguished people walking in the procession.

I really think that travelling is necessary to
us all. It keeps us from growing stale and
old; it stimulates our imagination, it gives us that movement and change which are necessary to our well-being. Some people travel in search of beauty, others to satisfy their curiosity, and many people consider travelling to be a very good form of rest. So do I.
