Andalusia
»SO COME... AND SEE«
The words which the Moor Ibn Zamrak used in the 14th century as an invitation to come to his native city of Granada, the queen of Andalusian cities, are best understood as an invitation to visit the whole of Andalusia.

Bali
ISLAND OF THE GODS
Once a year thousands of Balinese gather on the beach in Sanur at sunset. The festively-dressed multitude gazes out at the water and, every now and again, people glance over to the small altar adorned with flowers and crowned by a canopy.

Barcelona
Proud and beautiful
With the exception of Berlin, hardly any other world city has changed as much in recent years as Barcelona. The Catalan metropolis is proud of its new districts, but the city is also proud of its old quarters which bear witness to how powerful and rich its inhabitants once were. Barcelona is not only fascinating because of its beautiful architecture and cultural life, the seaside city also attracts visitors for the constant buzz that never stops – not even at night. ...

Berlin
Still under Construction
The new Berlin is on its way to becoming a proper capital city again since the dismantling of the Wall but will there ever be an end to the sand, dust, stone, glass and steel, the new roofs and towers atop the old walls? A new underground railway line will run beneath the trees lining the avenue of Unter den Linden. Schinkel's Academy of Architecture, a veritable castle in the air, reaches for the sky concealed behind the tiers of stones printed on its tarpaulin sheeting. Cranes cluster around the Ostbahnhof railway station to haul the next building up from the banks of the Spree. This is how the city has been since the start of the century: Berlin is coming into being. ...

Brazil
GOD IS BRAZILIAN
This is what the Brazilians say themselves, and everybody who knows this South American country will agree. How else to explain all the natural wonders and the ethnic diversity in a single country? In Brazil, visitors can hear the heartbeat of Africa as much as that of Europe, of Indian tribes as well as the Asian immigrants. People of all skin colours live with and alongside each other.

Dubai - United Arab Emirates
ARABIA'S TREASURES
»Allah u akbar« – at sunset the muezzin's call reverberates from hundreds of mosques. The entire city stops as from all directions men in white caftans come together to pray. Soon, however, everyone returns to their daily tasks. Despite the modernity brought about by its gigantic oil reserves, life in the UAE is still dominated by religion.

Florida
FUN IN THE SUN
So much to do – so little time: this phrase can be heard again and again, sighed out loud by visitors to Florida. Rightly so, as the variety of activities and entertainment on offer is overwhelming. It's impossible to see everything within a single visit! And to spend the entire holiday at the beach or in theme parks is not recommended. Florida is – of course – more than just sun, sand and Mickey Mouse.

Ireland
THE EMERALD ISLE
»Forty shades of green«, as the famous song goes. Well, green is indeed the dominant colour in this country, its many variations sustained by the gentle, moist climate. Meadows, pastures and hedgerows are offset by glorious touches of colour provided by rhododendron bushes and fuchsia hedges in lavish bloom.

London
A TRULY COSMOPOLITAN CITY
What is London? There is more than one way to look at it: for some »London« means only the City, the historic site of Roman and medieval London known as »the square mile« which is now the financial district. The City has no more than 5,200 residents, but during the day they have to share the square mile with almost 400,000 commuters who work there.

The Beauty on the Seine
The splendid metropolis on the Seine, the city of lovers, the Belle Époque and grands boulevards, exerts a fascination like no other city. To this day, in spite of all attempts of decentralization, Paris determines what France thinks, who has political influence and what is in fashion.

Prague
En route for Europe
Prague is moving into the new era at breathtaking speed. Once upon a time the city on the river Vltava was pictured as a romantic idyll in black-and-white, but this has since changed to dynamic Technicolor. It has been a long journey, via coronations, wars, soaring triumphs and saints falling from pedestals. ...

Rome
ALL ROADS LEAD TO ROME
And in Rome, all roads lead to historic attractions. The city is a unique museum but also very much alive, since it would never occur to the Romans to leave their city to the legions of tourists and pilgrims. Traffic roars, young people party at rock concerts, shoppers stroll about, and Roman families enjoy pizza and pasta in the many trattorias and restaurants between ancient ruins, Renaissance palaces and Baroque churches.

»By the grace of His Majesty the king, my companions and I had the convenience of two royal steam boats for our journey to the summer residence in Bang Pa In.

Vienna, the European capital that immediately brings to mind Mozart, hand kissing and opera balls is supposed to be a city changing with the times.
