Entertainments Excursion to the Sheremetev Castle In the place where the Volga river flows into the great Volga river, on the border between the Nizhni Novgorod region and the Republic of Mari El the village of Yurino (former Arkhangelskoye) is situated. This is where a unique castle, the epistle of Yurino, may be found. They call it the pearl of the Volga. In 1850 the possession of the estate was taken by V.P.Sheremetev who was married to the St. Petersburg's beauty O.D.Skobeleva, a sister of the well-known Russian commander M.D.Skobelev. V.P.Shcremetev decided to build a castle in Arkhangelskoye. The Russian and German architects R.Muller, A.Parland, Yakov Mamontov and Pave! Malinovskiy designed the castle. The immense castle was erected by craftsmen from the Yurino village. An Italian, Yermi Kristofoli, was invited to make the inlaid doors. The castle architecture in-cludes various features from different styles, and the influence of Gothic, Oriental, Romanic and old Russian styles can be seen there as well. The magnificent building is built of red and black bricks; white stone details effectively stand out against the black and red background. There is a large balcony above the front entrance, which rests on four white stone columns. The Southern entrance leads to the winter garden and a glass cupola rises on an enormous ring, which is supported by seven columns. Such a large winter garden built into the castle is a very uncommon feature. There were almost a hundred rooms in the castle. "The Picture Gallery", "The Oriental Study", "Tlic Oak Room", "Skobelev's Hall" are among them. The canvases of great painters such as El Grcko, Luke Laidensky, Yan Brcgcl Barkhalny, , K.P.Brullov and many other pieces of art testify to the fact that the collection of pictures was unique.

    Hungary
    Hungary pictures. Hungary is a beautiful little country in Eastern Europe with one of the greatest capital cities in the world, several baroque towns, many small villages, rolling hills and one of the largest (and most popular) lakes in Europe: Balaton.
    The lively capital, Budapest, is a fascinating mix of a multitude of styles, and has an overwhelming atmosphere which can only be felt while you're walking its back-streets at least as much as visiting the dozens of inviting tourist attractions. Most of these pictures offer a glimpse into the world of Budapest, including many well-known sights, and many much-lesser-known ones.
    Budapest is separated into two parts (Buda and Pest) by the Danube river, Pest being flat (including downtown Budapest), and Buda being mostly a hilly area, including two of the best vantage points of the city: Castle Hill (housing the quaint Castle District) and Gellért Hill. The city's most well-known attractions are the Buda Castle, Heroes' Square, the enormous Parliament, the Basilica, the views of the city from the two hills, and of course the vistas along the majestically flowing Danube, including the trio of Chain Bridge (Lánchíd), Elizabeth Bridge (Erzsébet híd) and Liberty Bridge (Szabadság híd).
    The gallery also contains pictures of some of the most interesting smaller towns of Hungary: Pécs, a cheerful university town with much medieval and Turkish heritage; Szeged, a town in the Great Plains whose most characteristic landmark is its unique cathedral; Debrecen, the second largest city in Hungary, having a beautiful and atmospheric downtown; and Visegrád, which has a superb location along the Danube bend, with a medieval castle perched above it on a hill providing great views of the surrounding mountains.

    Budapest pictures. Budapest is one of the great capital cities of the world with a wonderful setting along the two banks of the Danube, a bewildering eclectic architectural heritage, and a stunning atmosphere. While not all is rosy in the bustling capital of Hungary, Budapest is full of architectural gems (for example, the iconic Heroes' Square and Chain Bridge plus many more), atmospheric streets, has several pleasant parks and islands, and of course the majestically flowing river Danube, which cuts the city into two parts: Pest and Buda.
    Pest is completely flat (including downtown Budapest), while Buda is a hilly area, and includes two of the most popular vantage points of the city: Castle Hill and Gellért Hill (among these photos there are several views from these places).

    It was a very fine adventure. I came to Wilno (Vilnius) with my brother by train. Then I get to the hostel on Filaretai Street. The hostel was without luxuries (like all hostels) but very clean and nice. The owner was very helpful and friendly. There were a lot of international tourists from many countries (among them quite a lot of Japanese!).
    Wilno is a very interesting city with a lot of wonderful architecture. We admired old churches and other old buildings. But as a city it is rather "dead". There are some foreign tourists but not too much. There is quite a lot of little cafes and restaurants and most of them are rather empty. Shops are like they were during communist times - dirty - and saleswomen ignore customers. And generally, I still feel there a "breath of comrade Stalin".
    Lithuania made some changes at the beginning of 90s but then they stopped. After visiting the city we were drinking beer under the Monument of Gedyminas (Great Duke of Lithuania, grandfather of Polish King Jagiello) but the police kicked us out. In Warsaw it is normal that people drink beer near the column of King Zygmunt III, but Lithuanians have a more byzantic approach to monuments.....

    Home PHOTOS The Lublin region is justly proud of being at the crossroads of European history while also being one of the most unspoilt areas of Poland. Traditional crafts, thatched houses, attractive unspoiled villages, ancient and historic monuments and a richly varied countryside provides the visitor with an intriguing insight into Poland's varied history as well as traditions. In the south of the Lublin region there are fertile Lublin uplands of the Roztocze area, cut by numerous ravines. In the north you can find the Masovia and Podlaskie lowlands covered by dense forests. Crisscrossing the region are numerous rivers of which the Vistula and Bug are the most notable. The Vistula Gorge between Kazimierz and Pulawy offers the visitor a wonderful opportunity to view the river at its scenic, whilst there are numerous other points of interest to be found, of which the section of the Bug close to the village of Serpelice should not be missed. The beautiful Poleski National Park to the north west of the region lies partly in the Leczna-Wlodawa Lake District. Several dozen lakes big and small have been preserved in their natural state offering both recreational opportunities and spectacular views. This area's varied scenary encompasses dense forests, widespread meadows and peat bogs with unusual preserved plants, a number of which can only be seen elsewhere in the nothern tundra of the Arctic Circle. The area is also an ornithologists' delight with a wide variety of birdlife.

In the summer you will surely be tempted to go for a swim in the sea, and later in the autumn, the forest will invite you to do mushroom expeditions. And when winter comes, it is time to do some tobogganing or ice-skating!

    Culture
    Traveling through Upper Austria the traveler has the chance to experience a variety of cultural traditions dating back centuries. If you are interested in museums, the country is home to well over 250 excellent choices. Austria is dotted with an incredible number of architectural wonders. The buildings range from monasteries to churches, palaces to castles, to quaint old buildings. Even the more modern buildings are architectural interesting and inspiring. It is worth noting that the despite the small size of the country, the influence of their architecture has touched many other countries. Of recent interest are the many monasteries dotting the country. The impact of these institutions over the centuries cannot be understated. Today many of these monasteries are opening their doors to the general public. In Austria if you have the chance stop by to visit a few, it will be an interesting experience. When people think of Austria many envision a castle overlooking the mighty Danube. In one respect that is an accurate impression. It is not hard to come across one of these relics of the past as you travel through the countryside. Interestingly one of the provinces of Austria, Burgenland actually means "land of the castles".

    MODERN HOSPITAL IN FINLAND IN THE 21th CENTURY
    Hospitals are an important part of Finnish national heritage. As public buildings they represent the development of Finland from a Swedish province to the Great Duchy of Russia and finally to an independent country. The hospitals, designed by famous architects, are monuments of architecture but they also reflect the history of medicine. In the end, when speaking about the conservation and architecture of modern hospitals we are discussing a serious subject. The modern Finnish hospitals mentioned above are still in operation and new technology sets challenges to them. Therefore there are certain risks of too massive redevelopment. Plain modern architecture is known to be very sensitive to alteration. When original details are changed too drastically, the architectural value of building can disappear and we lose architectural monuments as well as a part of the history of public health.

Professor Stanford Professor Stanford Professor Stanford: I do not want to give the Minister any trouble about this section. It is an excellent Bill and we want it to go through quickly, but it seems to me that, though this section has been introduced rather reluctantly, it is a very good section. We may have sections of this kind in future Bills and I suggest the Minister and his colleagues should think ahead along these lines. It will not be quite satisfactory simply to say that the Institute's architect will think out a good design and that will be that. There are pretty deep aesthetic problems involved in this, and it is very much for the good of the country that they should seriously and fully be faced. I would remind the Minister and the Government that in the original Government of this country, we had a Minister for Fine Arts. I wonder if the time is not coming round when we need a Minister for Fine Arts again. At any rate, I should like to commend the Minister on having this section put in, however reluctantly.
