Panorama

View of Central Park in Manhattan – New York | USA

These skyscrapers just in front of Central Park in New York are some of the most exclusive apartment buildings in the world. Because they are located almost on one street, this part of Manhattan is called “Billionaires’ Row“.   Nico captured this view of Central Park and Billioners’ Row, thanks to the courtesy of the Residence […]

Cathedral of Palma | Mallorca, Spain

This panorama of the Mallorca Cathedral in Palma, captured at this angle, reminds me of… a fish. Or, in truth, from the lens perspective, when Nico wanted to capture the entirety of the Cathedral in Palma, including the surrounding moat. A task not easy – the size of this cathedral is 121 meters long, 40 […]

Arrábida Vineyards in Winter

Arrábida National Park is known for its scenic mountain trails with views of the ocean and picturesque coves. However, if you search the phrase “Arrábida” with the famous Uncle Google, you’re bound to find a trillion ads for tours offering wine tastings. And there’s a reason for that..   We visited Arrábida and Setúbal National […]

Sunset in Verona | Italy

Do you recognize this view of Verona (Italy) from St Peter’s Castle? Apart from being one of the most popular shots of the city of Verona with the Adige river, Nico has already published a similar photo.   You can see the effect of the previous photo of Verona here. What do you think of […]

Qatar Amphitheatre – Doha | Qatar

This Amphitheatre in the cultural village of Katara (Doha) is an architectural cultural blend. The Katara Amphitheatre was built on the model of a Greek theatre. However, this is not where the imagination of the creator ended. If you look at some of the elements of the theatre you will notice references to the traditional […]

Al Bayt Stadium – FIFA 2022 | Qatar

Al Bayt Stadium near Al Khor in Qatar is a tribute to Bedouin tradition. It is here that the opening match of the FIFA World Cup 2022™ and the matches up to the semi-finals will take place. Al Bayt, after the World Cup, will be folded up like a typical tent…   Al Khor (as […]

Aspire Tower, also known as The Torch Doha | Qatar

We visited Aspire Zone in Doha to see the Khalifa National Stadium and the famous Villagio Mall with its Venetian canals. However, the first sight when we went out of the metro station that positively surprised us was the view of the Aspire Tower.   Aspire Tower, also known as The Torch Doha, is a […]

“Porto Arabia by The Pearl”- Doha | Qatar

“Porto Arabia” is one of the attractions at “The Pearl” that should not get lost on your list of places to visit in Doha. The very fact that the entire district of “The Pearl” is man-made (this peninsula did not exist on the map before), deserves attention and a visit. The entire “The Pearl Qatar” […]

Panorama of Doha – West Bay | Qatar

Qatar and Doha are unique examples of such rapidly developing countries. Can you imagine, for example, that only 30 years ago these skyscrapers did not exist? This part of Doha (the west coast) was pure desert. Here, where we think the city existed there was always just a village where the inhabitants specialized in pearl […]

Qatar – World Cup 2022

The countdown has already started! The FIFA World Cup will take place in Qatar this year. It will be the first FIFA championship in an Arab country. Also for the first time, the final will take place in late autumn and not in summer as was the case so far.   The World Cup in […]

Museum of Islamic Art (MIA) – Doha | Qatar

The Museum of Islamic Art (MIA) is a symbol of Qatar. You’re probably already familiar with the shape of this building if you’ve ever seen articles encouraging you to visit the capital of Qatar – Doha. No wonder – the architecture of this building, combining elements of ancient Islamic architecture and modern geometric design, reflects […]

Lafayette Gallery in Doha Heritage Village Katara – Doha | Qatar

The Doha Heritage Village is a place that manages to amaze one with its contrasts. On the one hand, “Katara” is designed to resemble a traditional Qatari merchant village. On the other hand, the entire complex has only been in existence since 2010 and is home to modern art and galleries such as French Galeria […]

Madeira – Dolphin and whale watching | Portugal

Madeira is probably the best place in southern Europe to see the various populations of dolphins and whales. Depending on the season, about 8 kinds of whales and more than 20 kinds of dolphins can be spotted off the coast of Madeira.   Theoretically, the best time to see dolphins and whales is between April […]

Sunrise in Lisbon | Portugal

For over two years we had been beating ourselves up with thoughts of moving to Lisbon. On the one hand, in Berlin, we had family, friends and a fairly settled life in a country where we knew the language and culture. On the other hand, Lisbon charmed us to the point that we spent the […]

Carvoeiro in Algarve | Portugal

This panoramic photo of Carvoeiro was taken during our winter trip to the Algarve. This town is a popular destination for summer vacations in Portugal. However, and this is happening more and more, it is also a place where retirees or remote workers settle in the winter.   Admittedly, Nico and I are not retired […]

Madeira – Ponta de São Lourenço | Portugal

Ponta de São Lourenço is the easternmost peninsula of Madeira. It is one of the parts of Madeira, where traces of civilization can be counted on your fingers.   The peninsula is named after the ship João Gonçalves de Zarco, one of the three explorers of Madeira. According to legend, he is supposed to have […]

View of Paris | France

Looking at this photo of Paris do you recognize any neighborhoods?   No, we did not get to visit the French capital. This photo was taken from a plane when we flew from Berlin to Lisbon in 2021.   But who knows? Maybe in 2022 we will be able to visit Paris? Nico’s dream is […]

Punta della Dogana in Venice | Italy

Punta della Dogana is home to a contemporary art gallery in Venice. The building itself – Dogana da Mar – was formerly a maritime customs office. Today’s gallery has been hosted here since 2009 and is part of the Palazzo Grassi contemporary art museum in Venice, Italy. Dogana The Punta della Dogana was built between […]

Schönbrunn Palace – Vienna | Austria

You can’t say you’ve seen Vienna if you haven’t visited this rococo Schönbrunn Palace. Once the former seat of the Habsburgs (say you know the story of Empress Sisi!), it’s now a museum. However, it wasn’t the museum that lured Nico and me to Schönbrunn, but the magnificent gardens that surround the palace and provide […]

Panorama of Geneva | Switzerland

Geneva is the second-largest city in Switzerland, after Zurich. It is located in the area where the Rhine River flows into Lake Geneva. Geneva’s main language is French, but if you’re just passing through, you can easily get by with English as well. Lake Geneva This panorama of Geneva was captured in a photo on […]

Panorama of Split | Croatia in summer

The history of Croatian Split is extremely rich. The first Greek settlement was erected here as early as the second or third millennium BC. The city gained its splendour when Emperor Diocletian, tired of the ruling, had his palace built here. According to records of the time, Diocletian’s Palace was erected here in 305 AD. […]

Wrocław from Sky Tower | Poland

Wroclaw is the fourth largest city in Poland. In February 2021, Wroclaw was classified by one of the magazines belonging to the Financial Times to the first place in the report “Global Cities of the Future 2021/2022” in the category of medium and small cities of the world. It’s also a hidden gem and underrated […]

Florence panorama in the evening | Florence, Italy
If you want to have the best view of Florence, it’s recommended that you visit Piazzale Michelangelo. But be aware! Climbing a hill is involved!
Bay of Kotor Sunset Panorama | Kotor, Montenegro
Bay of Kotor is known by locals as “Boka” – “the Bay”. Now with melancholy peering, I regret that we didn’t have more time to discover other towns located around this “fiord of south” – Risan, Tivat, Perast, Prčanj or Herceg Novi. All of them together with natural surroundings, are listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites.
