 Muslim pilgrimage - The Dome of the Rock, (Arabic: مسجد قبة الصخرة) constructed around 691 CE by Umayyad Dynasty, this has become the third holiest site for Muslim pilgrimage, after Mecca and Medina. It is probably the oldest surviving example of early Islamic architecture. The Dome of the Rock is a Muslim shrine which stands on raised bedrock which is traditionally believed to be the place where the first Jewish temple was built. It was also here that people believe Abraham tried to sacrifice his son to God and where Muhammad is believed to have ascended into heaven in order to receive God's commandments.
 Mount of Temptation - The Monastery of St. George of Koziba, nestled in the lush valley of the Wadi Qelt, was founded in 420 CE by five hermits. It was built next to the cave where the prophet Elijah stopped enroute from Sinai and was fed by ravens. Numerous cave-dwelling hermits lived here in imitation of the great prophet. The monastery was abandoned after the Persians swept through the valley in the 600s and massacred 14 monks. It was restored again by the Crusaders in 1179. The present monastery was rebuilt around 1900 by the Greek Orthodox Church. The bones and skulls of the martyred monks can still be seen today in the monastery chapel.

 Tower hall Market Square - Like any typical European city, Tallinn is centred around its main square; and in the Estonian capital, it is known locally as Raekoja Plats or to the tourists as Town Hall Square.
The main building on the Town Hall Square is obviously Town Hall, or Tallinna Raekoda. Although the building was built over 600 years ago, it has kept to its original use and externally looks much the same as it did during its completion. The Town Hall Tower rises about 40 metres (about 130 feet) over the Square, and affords an amazing view over the Old Town and towards Toompea Hill. Although there are only a little over a hundred steps to reach the top of the tower, the higher you get, the larger the steps become, with some steps near the top approaching 18 inches (almost half a metre). The climb up is quite narrow, though there were occasional alcoves along the way in case you needed to catch your breath, or wanted to see what the Estonians used for a toilet over 500 years ago! The climb didn't seem like it was too high on the other Tallinn visitors' lists as we encountered no-one during the climb or at the top; which was probably all the better since there was only room for about four people at the top anyway. The view from the top was well worth the climb, and since we had a pristine day, you could see for miles. The tower is open from June through August, 11am to 6pm, and costs 30EEK (though half-price for students, children, and senior citizens). On a clear day it is well worth the effort! The same price is charged for entrance into the Town Hall itself, though if you want to take a tour, be ready to fork out another 300EEK on top of the entrance fee. During the summer the town hall is open daily, but visits from September through May require a prior appointment.

 Graduation tower - Graduation Towers – an unique and greatest in Europe wooden construction for evaporation of water from brine have been designed by Jakub Graff – the professor on the Mining Academy in Kielce. In Ciechocinek three such edifices – set up in form of a horseshoe have been erected. The graduation towers are 15,8 m high, their joint length is 1741,5 m. The brine for graduation towers is pumped from spring no 11 ('Grzybek' Fountain) and forced upward to trays installed on top of it. From here the brine trickles dropwise on walls of the graduation tower and evaporates under influence of wind and sunshine intensely. Around graduation towers the famous microclimate ample with iodine making a natural curative inhalatorium arises. Ciechocinek is a small town on the river Wisła, 20 km south from the Nicolaus Copernicus city of Toruń
