Béziers
Beziers today is a dynamic city whose oldest houses are laid out in the elliptical pattern revealing the underlying Roman Amphitheatre, which is currently being excavated. The Beziers townspeople are passionate about rugby and the bullfights held in their modern arena.
Falmouth
Falmouth, on Cornwall’s south coast, grew around one of the world’s largest natural harbors, a feature that has shaped its maritime identity for centuries. The town expanded during the age of sail, serving as a key port for packet ships, and landmarks like Pendennis Castle still anchor Falmouth firmly in its naval past.
Selous Game Reserve
Located in the south of Tanzania, the Selous Game Reserve is one of the largest. Thanks to the undisturbed wilderness and diverse wildlife, it was named a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1982.
Kaunas
Kaunas is Lithuania’s second-largest city, located at the confluence of the Nemunas and Neris rivers in the country’s central region. Its historic center combines a compact Old Town of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque buildings with the broader streets and distinctive architecture of the New Town. Kaunas Castle, standing near the river confluence, is one of the city’s best-known landmarks, while Laisvės Alėja forms a long pedestrian boulevard through the central districts.
Grundarfjörður
Situated on the north coast of the Snæfellsnes peninsula between a mountain range and the sea is the small town of Grundarfjordur, Iceland. Though certainly now the most well-known town on the peninsula, its nearby mountain Kirkjufell ("church mountain" in Icelandic) is perhaps Iceland's most famous.
