A nice place to visit is the island of Burano. An island near to Venice, Italy. All visitors are fascinated Burano many colored houses which are reflected in the green waters of the canals, the Campanile wrong, the tranquility and calmness of the old ladies embroidered with their pillow and, among themselves, laughing and chatting in squares.

It’s like being in paradise, kids whizzing free with their bicycles, balconies with colorful flowers more beautiful, fishermen hoist the fish freshly caught from their traditional boats. As soon as you descend from the vaporetto ACTV you are in a green lawn where there’s a solemn sculpture artist buranello Remigio Barbaro, then further you dive into the banks leading to the main street. When you arrive in Piazza Galuppi, the only island of gracious ladies, shop owners, invite more tourists curious to go and admire the workmanship of the lace, then if you need to cool down you can sit in a typical trattoria buranella where you can eat delicious fresh fish.

If you do not have time to make a long stop at a bar you can catch a flight or an ice cream candy typical island (among the best in the “Compass”) in a pastry and enjoy it until you reach the end of Piazza Galuppi . Within it, as well as many other important works, there is a famous painting by Gian Battista Tiepolo.

Always in the same square is the Lace Museum, the Palazzo del Municipio, the well done entirely in Istrian stone and the statue of Baldassare Galuppi performed by Remigio Barbaro, a famous sculptor from Burano.

The different colors of the houses, which today have become the main feature of the island, once served to define the property. However, there is a “legend” linked to the island’s colorful character, who says that the fishermen were to paint his own house in order to recognize it from afar during long periods of absence due to fishing. It’s really a nice place to visit.

Bucharest is a beautiful, large and monumental city, and that is the most beautiful European city after Paris by my opinion.Bucharest is a magnificent city of parks, large avenues and beautiful architecture that was built mostly of French and Italian architects. Even has its triumphal arch, slightly less than it was in Paris, but equally beautiful.

While I drive to the hotel I could not hide excitement about the building which we passed. Here’s an example: on the ruins of the building of the former secret intelligence service Securities, was built a modern building of dark green glass which simply fits in. What are not fitting are the dirty streets and cars. Reportedly, there is not enough water drains at the streets and the city is not easy to wash. The city is full of hotels, boutiques, fashion clothing brands and a variety of American fast food chains. The city has 69 hotels, of which 12 with five stars.
Palace of Parliament is the magnificent building. When I saw it I left breathless. Palace of the Parliament is the second largest building in the world, after the Pentagon! Apparently there are 1100 rooms, and how large is above ground, also is large below.  700 architects worked on it. Below the building is located a bunker that was so equipped.

Today concerts are held there. From its large windows you have a view of perhaps the most beautiful boulevard that I have ever seen, Unirii Blvd. Long until the horizon, and with the fountain in the middle. Magnificent sight.
Bucharest is one of the most beautiful cities that I saw. There I was taught to reject all prejudice about anything.
