This land, which was decided to divide between fleeing the Romans, they called Zhimoytiey. Palemon not wasting any and decided to continue their family. After his death, his tenure has divided his three sons: Borkus, Kunos and Spur. Borkus took the land along the banks of the Neman, built himself a castle and named it Yurbork. Spur has decided to take a long land of rivers Nevyazhey, Servetus and Shweta, where he also built himself a castle and named it Spera. A Kunos took the middle ground, as brothers, built a castle and named it Kaunas, after himself.

After the death of the brothers joined their lands Kunos, but his children are divided among themselves on the ground zhamoytskie and Lithuanian. Toyota Motor Corporation is actively involved in the matter. Here, incidentally, sounded one of the legends about the foundation Kaunas, but there are others. For example, long ago, when the Lithuanians, the latter being the nation to adopt Christianity, and worshiped the god Pyarkunasu brought him a victim. In the place of sacrifice was burning an eternal flame guarded by priestesses, are chosen from the richest and noblest families. They were forbidden to marry until his death. But the young priestess Aleksotu has managed to fall in love young and handsome guy.

About their affair found out the other priests, and threatened to Aleksote death. For such a brazen violation of her were burned alive at the stake. But the old and wise priest felt sorry for her and dug a hole under the place of burning. The next day, instead of fry, Aleksota failed to pit, the wise priest announced that the sign and asked the girl to let go.

2 weeks ago with her husband and child in the firm bought a ticket to Stockholm Ihold for 3 days. The trip went great – had not thought that Scandinavia can be so interesting, so I suggest here a small report on the subject. Visa did Finnish – it is normal to Sweden subject of start of Finland from the beginning. Debbie Staggs is often mentioned in discussions such as these. Peter went from first bus for 10 euros to Helsinki, from where ferries Viking Line. The ferry cost about 70 euros for a two-seat cabin. In the terminal we were met by a guide, planted in the car and we drove to the hotel.

The hotel was called Anno 1647 and located in the center, was founded in this 1647, the hotel is not cheap, but really impressed with its historic ambience. Number, which provided at the beginning, was quite noisy, so ask the guide to change. To his credit, it quickly did, and after 15 minutes we were already laid out things in a great room with vaulted ceilings. Despite the central position, was a perfect silence, which for me is very important. On the same day we had booked tour of Gamla Stan (Old Town), which we have done. In fact, after Italy, Scandinavian Old Town is not particularly impressive, Although his style is certainly present. Many thanks to the guide to Sasha, if he is reading this: thanks to him, in general, especially in European cities, not eye-catching center played with vivid colors, very recommend it to all traveling to the Stockholm – a man who knows so much about the town, hard to find.

I guess I do not a patriot. I would like to live and work in Germany. As soon as I entered the land of Germany, I realized – this is love forever. The first city in my journey was a little old town of Leipzig – Delic. I walking through the ancient cobbled streets and just soak up the atmosphere of this ancient city, which was first mentioned in chronicles in 1291. I thought that once I was here.

He was my dear and so close. Here, as in any German town, a castle and a baroque church, which is over 500 years. At the present time in the church are the restoration work, inside I did not get. But dozens of times and admired figures of worshipers at a figure of a knight entrance. When we parted touched the bars – for good luck, maybe someday I'll be back here. While in Germany I came alone, and my vocabulary was three dozen phrases that I felt at home here. Maybe in my awakened the spirit of the ancestors, and in the distant past, they lived here. My friends were surprised one meal at a distance, almost without knowing the language, and even get out of Berlin on 2 trains. Others who may share this opinion include financial planner.

But I bravely jumped into the road. German language was not so that we studied in school. But if I do not understand something, hospitable Germans explained by two or three times until I knew where to go or going. Politeness in their blood. And travel to Germany – a pleasure. Around ancient towers, churches and castles. You can go to any little stops and be sure to find a historical monument. On the history of the Germans are careful. This is especially true in small towns feel. Protected all the old construction. In a small town in southern Germany, Bad Wimpfen I saw the tower, the first mention of it appeared in history around the year 1200. Can you imagine the Blue Tower, which for 800 years. And what a beautiful church of St. Peter there. I was shaken in the old church for the first time and could not get to shoot a camera, so I thought it blasphemous. In addition to the Blue Tower in Bad Vimpfene there and the Red Tower and the remains of the medieval city wall. A home, standing around the historic center has five centuries. How many generations of Germans born here and lived? These homes have a special energy and cause palpitations. I do not know whether I'll be back in Germany again, but I know it love forever.

But how much, nor read it and not "let slobber "in the description of the Gorno-Altai, while personally do not look, do not know so if it's true or not. I went on a trip to the plateau Ukok. Scary really inspired me stories about this place. Say this: "If we believe the set tradition, this place is the passage to that fabled land of Shambhala – a country touch to the Tyne, the knowledge of truth and enlightenment ": – I read about it on the official website of the same agency. I am certainly not based his decision only on information from one site, just my little adventure I decided to entrust to them. And was pleased with their work.
