Fantastic Four

​Picture 1:  One of the many amazingly designed buildings in Dutch capital (Amsterdam). This is a throwback to my vacation in August 2019, where I spent 5 days in a cool budget hostel. As a matter of fact this was an opportunity to meet many other people visiting the place with all different purposes. For instance solo travellers, exchange students,  researchers, thrill-seekers etc.

One of the best transport methods in Amsterdam is by bike, you can get everywhere by bike in this city. The hostel where I stayed, offered to rent a bike to me for a day, however, I decided to get it for full 5 days. It costed me around 50 dollars as I got a discount for renting for a longer time. Over the next few days I had a quick breakfast, grabbed a cup of coffee combined with small chitchat with a few guys in the saloon and then I left. In a searching of Madame Tussauds Art museum I was passed right next to Magna Plaza and snapped it. The function of this building is no longer a post office how it used to be years ago. Therefore to not be a surplus for the society it has been converted into a shopping centre.

Photo 2:  With this photo I wanna depict unconstrained history and beauty in the city of Cochem. It is a symbol of developed wine industry as well.

The place can be consider like a hub of the most qualified and broader range of Riesling wines in whole Germany. The vineyards around cover 9034 hectares. Treasure of Mosel river named Cochem has given me fanciful emotion which I provide via this photo. People can see St. Martin's Church trapped between steep slopes of the vineyards. One of the best ways to explore the town is to take a river cruise down to Mosel fleet. Don't forget to take a bottle of the unique mouthwatering Riesling in a jiffy when you are there.

Photo 3:  This city is Novi Pazar and located in Northeast part of Bulgaria. The meaning of the name "Novi Pazar" is literally "new market" in Bulgarian language. It is not by chance it's called this, as every Friday there is a street market bustling with locals. There is a range of stalls, such as street food, artesians, second hand and many other gadget sellers are situated at one venue. The local food here is mostly different types of sausages and meat balls with french fries or grilled veggies. Wherever you stroll you can smell the smokey flavor and see how people sitting around to chat and drinking beer.

Late afternoon after strong rain I was driving through the humble streets and passing around edifices retained from communism time. Actually the whole town is enshrouded of this soviet spirit which immerses you in years traced back. Eventually I came across on this clock tower which I find quite attractive.

Photo 4:  I was a witness to a graceful ceremony of swans. They were popping and croaking around at the beach at the Black Sea when I got a chance to take a picture.
