Ultime notizie (in inglese) (Più) Lake Como, Italy (05-04-2009 - 17:58:58) Lake Como (Italian: Lago di Como) is a lake of glacial origin in Lombardy, Italy. It has been one of Italy's most famous natural landmarks since the days of the Roman Empire. Situated among the majestic mountains near Milan and the border of Switzerland, it's popular with local weekenders and international tourists alike.As well as fresh air and peaceful scenery, people come to Lake Como to follow cycle paths along its idyllic banks, hike on its nearby peaks, swim and sail in its vast clear waters, and relax in historic and lake-side resorts such as Varenna and Bellagio, as well as the main town of Como itself with its magnificent duomo (cathedral). Some 50km long and extremely deep (over 400 m, it is one of the deepest lakes in Europe), Lake Como, feed in large part by the Adda River, is shaped like a slender inverted character "Y" with its southern end forking into two long "legs", with picturesque Bellagio nestled in between. Ferry services link lake-side towns and villages, and are a great way to explore land and water at the same time. Spring and autumn are the best times to visit with bright sunshine, fine weather and fantastic views.  Lake Como is well-known for the attractive villas which have been built here since Pliny the Younger constructed the Comedia and the Tragedia:- The Villa Carlotta was built for the Milanese marchese Giorgio Clerici in 1690 and occupies a site of over 70,000 m2 at Tremezzo, facing the Bellagio peninsula. - The Villa d'Este, at Cernobbio, was built in 1568 by Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio. - The Villa del Balbianello, built in 1787, famous for its elaborate terraced gardens, lies on a promontory of the western shore of the lake near Isola Comacina. - The Villa Melzi, at Bellagio was built in the neo-classical style by the architect Giocondo Albertolli in 1808–10 as the summer residence of Francesco Melzi who had been vice-president of the Napoleonic Italian Republic. - The Villa Serbelloni, also at Bellagio, houses the Bellagio Study and Conference Center, a residential center set up and managed by the Rockefeller Foundation since 1959, which operates a 'scholar-in-residence' program for scholars from around the world. |
Singapore (23-02-2009 - 18:01:11) Singapore (Chinese: 新加坡; pinyin: Xīnjiāpō; Malay: Singapura; Tamil: சிங்கப்பூர், Cingkappūr), officially the Republic of Singapore, is an island microstate located at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula. Its geographical location is 136.8 km north of the equator, south of the Malaysian state of Johor and north of Indonesia's Riau Islands. Singapore is the smallest nation in Southeast Asia and one of four remaining true city-states in the world.Singapore is made up of not just one island but a main island with 63 surrounding islets. The main island has a total land area of 682 km2. Jurong Island, Pulau Tekong, Pulau Ubin and Sentosa are the largest of Singapore's many smaller islands. Singapore is linked to Johor, Malaysia by two causeway bridges: Johor-Singapore Causeway in the north and Tuas Second Link in the west. The highest natural point of Singapore is Bukit Timah Hill at 166 m (545 ft). Singapore's resident population of over 4.2 million inhabitants is comprised of 77% Chinese, 14% Malay, 8% Indian and 1% others. Official languages are English, Chinese, Malay and Tamil. English is widely spoken.  Before European settlement, the island now known as Singapore was the site of a Malay fishing village at the mouth of the Singapore River. Several hundred indigenous Orang Laut people also lived along the nearby coast, rivers and on smaller islands. In 1819 the British East India Company, led by Sir Stamford Raffles, established a trading post on the island, which was used as a port along the spice route. Singapore would become one of the most important commercial and military centres of the British Empire, and the hub of British power in Southeast Asia. The city was occupied by the Japanese during World War II, which Winston Churchill called "Britain's greatest defeat". Singapore reverted to British rule immediately after the war, in 1945. Eighteen years later (1963) the city, having achieved independence from Britain, merged with Malaya, Sabah, and Sarawak to form Malaysia. However, less than two years later it seceded from the federation and became an independent republic on 9 August 1965. Singapore joined the United Nations on 21 September that same year. It is also a member of the British Commonwealth of Nations.Singapore districts: - Riverside (Civil District), Singapore's colonial core, with museums, statues and theaters, not to mention restaurants, bars and clubs. - Orchard Road (乌节路), retail and entertainment hub of Singapore. - Bugis and Kampong Glam, north of the Singapore River, Singapore's old Malay district, now largely taken over by shopping. - Chinatown Singapore (牛車水), featuring distinctly Chinese cultural elements and a historically concentrated ethnic Chinese population. - Little India (小印度 - Tamil லிட்டில் இந்தியா), ethnic neighborhood that has Indian cultural elements. Little India lies to east of the Singapore River and north of Kampong Glam. - Balestier, Newton, Novena and Toa Payoh, budget accommodations and Burmese temples within striking distance of the center. - North and West, The northern and western parts of the island, also known as Woodlands and Jurong respectively, from Singapore's residential and industrial hinterlands. - East Coast, the largely residential eastern part of the island contains Changi Airport, miles and miles of beach, and many famous eateries. Also consists of Geylang Serai, the true home of Singapore's Malays. - Sentosa (聖淘沙), which means peace and tranquility in Malay, is a popular island resort in Singapore.
