It was a salty and hot experience descending down to the Dead Sea, the lowest spot on earth. This sea between Jordan and Isreal is believed to have healing powers because of the super salty water. It was great enjoying the afternoon in July 2005 swimming around in the sea water and bathing in the sun. Actual the expression of swimming is not completely correct while I rather was floating than swimming. It was really amazing that it was no need to use efforts to float on this water. I also took some mud treatment that made me almost unrecognisable.

The area around the Dead Sea it`s a also a Biblical site. Sodom and Gomorrah, the site where Lot's wife was turned into a pillar of salt, is believed to have been located close to the Dead Sea.

Properties in Jordan inscribed on the World Heritage List are Petra (1985), Quseir Amra (1985) and Um er-Rasas (Kastrom Mefa'a) (2004). Until the early 20th century, Jordan was part of Palestine, most of which is now the State of Israel. The area is home to one of the oldest civilisations in the world. Archaelogical finds from the west bank of the Jordan River have been dated at around 9000 BC. With Bible stories, lost cities, nomads as the Bedouins, and Lawrence of Arabia, Jordan wakes fairytale associations. One of the most amazing wonders was created by the Nabataens people. It`s called Little Petra, the Red-Rose city, and has a high-spirited adventure in true Indiana Jones style. So this area was just perfect for one of the movies about Indiana Jones.......

It`s imortalised in the end of the movie The Last Crusadar with Harrison Ford in the main role as Indiana Jones. For they who believe these wonder is fairytale, they need to think twice. Trhough history there hase been lot of speculations about the purpose for this monument. While some would propose that the Treasury Monument was a tomb, no tomb inscriptions or grave crypts have been discovered. Others have proposed that it was what the Arabs call it, a 'Treasury' or tax house for passing camel caravans, but archeologists and historians now doubt that many camel caravans came into Petra, as most of the caravans passed the city, traveling on the King's Highway a good number of miles away.

One thing that is certain, the Treasury Monument was built to impress. It`s the first monument that visitors see when they exited the siq, and it is also one of the finest monuments in all of Petra.The Treasury, Street of Facades, Water Works, The Theater, The Royal Tombs, High Place, Colonnade Street, Great Temple, Temple of Al Uzza, Temple of Dushares, Dier - the Monestary, Habis, Biera, City of Board Games, the Snake Monumen, Sabara Suburb, City Walls/Map, Al Beidha, Churches, Kubtha High Place, Wadi Nmeir and other interesting things.

These beautiful fjords are located in the counties of Sogn & Fjordane and Møre & Romsdal in southwestern Norway, northeast of Bergen. Geirangerfjord and Nærøyfjord, set 120 km from one another, are part of the west Norwegian fjord landscape, which stretches from Stavanger in the south to Andalsnes, 500 km to the northeast. Norwegian Fjords are among the seven natural sites added to UNESCO's World Heritage List.Now these sites have the same status as other nature wonders as Grand Canyon in USA and Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. Tourists flocks to Norway to experience the beauty of the fjords and for trekking in the high mountains around.

As one of the most welcoming, hospitable people in the world, the people in Jordan have their own rituals for guests. The first gesture which is associated with Bedouins hospitality is offering tea. The second is also related to drinking and it take you to new heights, or shall I say causes frightening visions.

Suomenlinna fortress is the largest fortress in the world. It`s not only a major military monument worthy of the UNESCO World Heritage List, but also home to about 900 Finns who live in the renovated barracks. For me walking around there for some hours one sunny day in July 2005, could enjoy a peaceful atmosphere and explore the walls, rooms, chambers and labyrinths.

Rwenzori Mountains National Park is the location of Africa's third highest peak, Mount Margherita at 5109 metres. Rwenzori Mountains National Park protects the eastern slopes and glacial peaks of the 120km-long misty Rwenzori Mountains, popularly called "Mountains of the Moon". It`s also a World Heritage Site of breathtaking natural beauty. As the staff in Lonely Planet considered it in 2001, after the national park was re-opened, they could not think of a better place in the world for hiking and mountaineering than this area.

It`s also famous for being the source of the Nile, which was first alluded to by the geographer Ptolemy circa 150 AD. Ugandans refer to their country as the "Pearl of Africa". When it comes to Rwenzori visitors can understand why.......

Despite all news about melting snow on the top of Kilimanjaro, eager trekkers flock to Africa's highest peak in Tanzania. Some scientists have recently predicted that Mount Kilimanjaro's famous snow cap will vanish within 15 - 20 years.

In the last weekend in May 2005 a total number of 46 climbers made it to the top of Everest through the South East ridge route, and some 15 climbers made it on the north side. And more climbers are approaching the top......

This is the unrevealed mystery of the huge canyon in USA. On April 5, 1909, the Arizona Gazette published an article about the discovery of a "great underground citadel" located in the Grand Canyon. The discovery was said to be made by G. E Kinkaid (or Kincaid as both spellings are used), while he was travelling down the Colorado River.

So far no one have been able to find this area again, and the question is: is it a really a lost city there from ancient time or was it just a fake? The mystery goes on......

Engulfed by layers of green, the Tikal ruins are comprised of dozens of stone pyramids, so tall they protrude through the forest canopy. Aging more than 2,000 years, some of these rocky structures rise more than 200 feet... proving that pyramids aren't only made for Egyptians.

Only 500 trekkers at a time can now walk the trail, which goes through the heart of the Peruvian Andes to Machu Picchu, and reservations must be made through a registered tour operator.

You also need to pay in advance and get a full passport information 30 days prior to departure.

With other words, it means that fewer people in the future will be able to experience the ancient Inca site near Cuzco in Peru, which is notified as an UNESCO heritage and a great wonder of world.

Go far as you can go to the North, there is a long and narrow country called Norway. Here around in amidst dark forests, moonlit lakes, deep fjords and mighty snow capped mountains, you will find the trolls, especially in a region called Gudbrandsdalen. These amazing creatures were covered in the world famous Norwegian author Henrik Ibsen`s novel Peer Gynt.

Take a thoroughly look and you will hopefully see against all logical belief, one of those mystical trolls.

Specialized scientific sources in palaeontology confirmed that the findings made last year in the region of Grande River are tracks from anquilosaurios. This was according the Bolivian Ramiro Cortez, who discovered the old signs during one of his passages.
