Keukenhof Tulip (Flower) Garden in Netherlands
Keukenhof is a paradise for flower lovers and especially for those ones who are into tulips. Keukenhof is located in province of South Holland in Netherlands in town of Lisse. One of the reasons people spend money and travel here from all around the world is a blooming season of tulips. I actually learnt a few interesting facts about tulips here. Like the origin of tulips comes from South Caucasus. And of course I practiced my photography…
Leiden - A Lovely Dutch City in South Holland
We arrived at a lovely city of Leiden in Netherlands from Düsseldorf Germany. Frankly speaking I hadn't before heard the name of Leiden, and I'm glad I learned something new. The reason we headed to Leiden was simple, according to some sources here starts the Bloemen Route (Flower route) to Keukenhof's flower garden. So we arrived at Leiden and I found this city lovely enough to add to my blog. By learning more about this city…
Bastion Hotel Dusseldorf Neuss Review
We ended our first day in Germany at hotel Bastion located in a small town called Neuss close to a larger Dusseldorf. I must admit we had a problems to find this location, but it was my fault not hotels. I didn't know how to enter address on our rental cars navigation system, so we did have a drive "on blind". After a several stops at gas stations and asking for a correct directions to Jagenbergstraße we find this hotel. We lost around 3…
First Flush Tea Room in Bonn Review
Welcome to my second Germany's restaurant review. First one happened some 40 km South from Bonn in a lovely town of Andernach, back there I made a review about Italian style restaurant "Bellini". First Flush Tea Room as it's name already suggests is more a tea room than a restaurant, but you can order some meal here as well. First Flush Tea Room This place is centrally located on Bonn's marketplace just next to Old Town Hall Menu at…
Marketplace and Old Town Hall in Bonn, Germany
One thing I like about travel photography it helps to recall those amazing places you have visited during your travels. So today looking through my travel photos I found an intereting place, I would even call it a gem - Bonn's Old Town Hall and marketplace near it. In fact during my visit there I had no clue there is a marketplace actually. Cool right? We just headed straight on Bongase street after I took a few photos of Beethoven's House of…
Beethoven's House of Birth in Bonn, Germany
The idea to visit Beethoven's House of birth arrived from friend of us whom we earlier picked up in city of Koblenz. Honestly speaking I have no idea why he (friend) was so eager to see this place because in fact we didn't see anything more than just a usual dwelling house and a street table on that house indicating that indeed a maestro of all times Ludwig Van Beethoven was born here a few centuries ago. No don't get me wrong - I'm not trying…
Poppelsdorf Palace And Its Surroundings In Bonn, Germany
We hadn't any plans to visit this lovely and former capital city of West Germany Bonn. Our friend who is living in Germany and we picked up him earlier this day in Koblenz insisted we should visit some place were some Mozart (well actually Ludwig von Beethoven) were born and it turned out to be a city of Bonn. We arrived here at Bonn from a lovely town on the banks of Rhine river Andernach, and parked our car in some residential area -…
Restaurant 'Bellini' In Andernach, Germany
Restaurant Bellini is an Italian style restaurant located in the spectacular German town of Andernach (some 20 km North from Koblenz). You can find my first impressions of this lovely town located on the banks of Rhine river here: Andernach - A Lovely German Town On The Banks Of Rhine I must admit neither me, neither us we were looking for an Italian style restaurant here in Germany, it just turned out that you will find more Italian,…
Andernach - A Lovely German Town On The Banks Of Rhine
Andernach indeed is one of the loveliest German towns I have visited lately. In fact, I haven't visited Germany a lot. We arrived here after picked up a friend in Koblenz. The town of Andernach is located just some 20 km North of Koblenz. I know some will find it strange to leave a city of Koblenz not seeing it much (just a railway station and a few elevated roads) but that;s the way I (we) like it. I believe we will return to…
The Orthodox Church of Kuldiga
I have been lately a lot in church photography. Perhaps Georgia as an Orthodox country has learned me this lesson. Churches are interesting for photography, I believe it's pretty hard to take a decent image of a church by not using some good lenses and a tripod. Churches looks great from a distance, they are majestic and impressive. Kuldiga Orthodox Church As I have been taught and have find many times - a tripod is a must have for the…
