The desert Namibia has some of the highest and most spectacular sand dunes in the world, in some places reaching to the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, creating one of the most surreal sights …! Blonde or orange color of the sand is in stark contrast with the infinite blue of the sea in a picture that takes your breath away.

The best vantage point is none other than the town Swakopmund, Namibia, the largest coastal city in the country but also one of the nicest places that crowds gather. The origins of the city are German, while stands the old German neighborhood in the city center, making it even more the contrast observed by the visitor to the landscape.

Great Atmosphere, Rialto Bridge, Venice, Italy

The Rialto Bridge is one of the four bridges spanning the Grand Canal in Venice, Italy. It is the oldest bridge across the canal. The present stone bridge, a single span designed by Antonio da Ponte, was completed in 1591 and was used to replace a wooden bridge that collapsed in 1524. The engineering of the bridge was considered so audacious that some architects predicted a future collapse. The bridge has defied its critics to become one of the architectural icons of Venice.

The basic material is patinated brass, while much emphasis has been placed on detail of famous monuments so that the design result as close as possible to reality, in miniature, of course. The striking is that the Taj Mahal is growing at the bottom of the table, making the furniture even more impressive. Detail, investing in gold leaf domes of the monument.
