“Sierra de Samaná hills”

The Cordillera Septentrional is a mountain range that runs parallel to the north coast of the Dominican Republic, with extensions to the northwest as Tortuga island in Haiti, and to the southeast through lowlands to where it rises as the Sierra de Samaná on the Samaná Peninsula.

The Sierra de Samaná stretches along the Samaná peninsula, over a length of 60 kilometers. The peninsula's highest points are: La Meseta at 650 meters, Las Cañitas at 546 meters and Pan de Azúcar at 493 meters.

This mountain range contains deposits of marble and lignite, but only the marble has been mined.

“The flowering of the carnations”

If you thought the flowers opened by themselves, you had no idea.

Eventually, you thought it was little fairies like Tinkerbell who took care of them. But that's in children's movies.

The reality is more pragmatic, there are specialized workers for that, simply.

“Defenseless”

I really don't like having to go to work in the La Défense district near Paris. It's a human anthill where people are mostly in a hurry to get from the train to the office and back again.

The only reason why a visit to this district might be of any interest is for architectural photography, with the many towers covered in glass reflecting each other.

“Quietness”

Yili Garden is a traditional Chinese garden of 10,000 square meters, created with the participation of the Suzhoua City Green Spaces Department, with materials from China.

It combines Far Eastern philosophy and harmonic composition of nature. A garden between dream and reality, in balance with nature...

“Mtatsminda view point over Tbilisi”

Mtatsminda (“Holy Mountain”) is the highest point in Tbilisi so it’s naturally a great place for panoramic views. The large terrace in front of Restaurant Funicular is a giant balcony over the city and the ideal place for photos.

“The view over Mtskheta from Jvari Monastery”

Jvari Monastery stands on the rocky mountaintop at the confluence of the Mtkvari and Aragvi rivers, overlooking the town of Mtskheta, one of the oldest cities of Georgia and its former capital.

It is located approximately 20 kilometres north of Tbilisi.

“Tbilisi Sulfur Baths”

Tbilisi’s baths are very different to those in Istanbul, Budapest, or anywhere else.

The location for the city was chosen because of the natural hot springs that course underground (Tbilisi means “warm place”). Persian-Ottoman style bath houses were erected atop this geothermal playground, most of them in Abanotubani, the Old Town’s iconic sulfur bath district.

One of Tbilisi’s most recognisable neighbourhoods, Abanotubani is characterised by the brick domes that pop out of the earth like molehills. This design allows natural light to stream into the bath rooms and provides ventilation for the sulfuric steam to escape.

“Chreli-Abano”

With its splendidly tiled mosque-like facade, Chreli-Abano (sometimes called Orbeliani Baths) is without a doubt the most iconic bathhouse in Tbilisi.
