IMpumalanga Yurophu iyaqhubeka nokusebenza kanzima ukuze kwakhiwe imboni yayo yezokuvakasha. Ukusuka ePrague ukuya ePoland kuya eTurkey, izinguquko eziningi zisemisebenzini.
I-Prague, idolobha elivakashelwa kakhulu esifundeni, selicishe liqede isigaba sokuqala sokubuyisela e-Charles Bridge. Lakhiwa ngekhulu le-14, leli bhuloho elithandwa kakhulu linikeza enye yezindawo zokungcebeleka ezimnandi nezijabulisa kakhulu ezingama-500-plus-yard eYurophu. Futhi manje ukukhanya kwegesi yakudala kuzokwenza ukuhamba kusihlwa unqamule lesi sici esiyingqopha-mlando kube intokozo nakakhulu.
Ithukile ngezinsongo ze-al-Qaida, iRadio Free Europe isisuse ikomkhulu layo ebhilidini lePhalamende lesikhathi sobukhomanisi eDolobheni Elisha lasePrague. Ukuvakasha okuqondisiwe manje kukuthatha isinyathelo ngesinyathelo esithakazelisayo kumlando wakamuva we-Czech endaweni engaphakathi yesakhiwo eyayingavunyelwe.
Ihamba ngaphezu kweDolobha Elidala eDubrovnik, indawo ephezulu yaseCroatia, iyinqaba eseMount Srd. Ibuyisela isimo sayo njengendawo eheha izivakashi. Izisebenzi zilungisa imoto yamakhebula eyake yaxhumanisa idolobha nenqaba ngaphambi kokuba kucekelwe phansi umshini wokukhuphula ngesikhathi kubhidlika iYugoslavia (dubrovnikcablecar.com). Lapho umsebenzi usuqediwe (mhlawumbe kuleli hlobo), kuzoba lula ngezivakashi ukujabulela ukubukwa okugcwele kwesiqongo sentaba kanye nomnyuziyamu omusha onesizotha mayelana nokuvinjezelwa kwe-Dubrovnik ngo-1991-1992.
Kokubili iCroatia neSlovenia ziyaqhubeka nokwandisa imigwaqo yazo. I-Slovenia isishintshile isuka ohlelweni lokukhokha lwe-tollbooth yaya kuzitika ze-windshield toll ezibizwa ngokuthi “vinjeta” (cishe u-$21/ngeviki, u-$42/ngenyanga). Imigwaqo yaseCroatia inwetshwa eningizimu ukusuka eSplit kuya eDubrovnik. Umsebenzi usuqalile - futhi umile - ebhulohweni lasePeljesac elisengundabamlonyeni. Le phrojekthi eyizigidi ezingu-400 izovumela umgwaqo omkhulu ukuba udlule umngcele ongena eBosnia-Herzegovina, ngaleyo ndlela ugcine umgwaqo endaweni yaseCroatia ngokuphelele.
Ngo-2012, iPoland (ngokuhlangene ne-Ukraine) izosingatha umqhudelwano webhola lezinyawo we-Euro Cup. Ezweni lonke, igagasi lokwakha okusha liyaqabula futhi linika amandla kabusha izindawo zokuhlala ezidabukile, ikakhulukazi eWarsaw, eGdansk, ePoznan naseWroclaw, ezosingatha imidlalo. IPoland nayo isebenzisa i-Euro Cup njengezaba zokuthuthukisa inethiwekhi yayo yezitimela. (Ngeshwa esikhathini esifushane, ukwakhiwa kubangela ukubambezeleka okuningi kwezitimela.)
E-Krakow, inhloko-dolobha yasePoland enomlando, izindaba ezinkulu ukuthi ifekthri ka-Oskar Schindler, lapho usomabhizinisi waseJalimane enza khona konke okusemandleni akhe ukusindisa izimpilo zezisebenzi zakhe ezingamaJuda phakathi neMpi Yezwe II, iguqulwa ibe imnyuziyamu. Ivulwa maphakathi no-2010 (mhk.pl). Kule sayithi, lapho uSteven Spielberg athwebula khona ezinye zezigcawu ” Uhlu luka-Schindler,” imibukiso ilandelela ulwazi lukaKrakow lweMpi Yezwe II. Izivakashi nazo zingakwazi ukubona umfanekiso wehhovisi lika-Schindler futhi zibuke izithombe zobufakazi zabasebenzi baka-Schindler ababongayo.
Futhi e-Krakow, i-eclectic Czartoryski Museum ivaliwe ukuze ibuyiselwe, cishe ngo-2012. Imisebenzi yobuciko emibili yeqoqo (Ingoma kaLeonardo da Vinci ethi “Lady With an Ermine” kanye nekaRembrandt ethi “Landscape With the Good Samaritan”) ibolekwe isikhashana kwamanye amadolobha, kodwa ngesinye isikhathi kulo nyaka zizovezwa kugalari ye-19th Century Polish Art, ngenhla kweHholo Lendwangu e-Krakow's Main Market Square.
EC Phakathi nalawa mahora aphakeme, kufanele ujoyine uhambo olulodwa lwesikhumbuzo oluhlelekile noma uqashe umhlahlandlela oyimfihlo. Isango elidumile elithi “Arbeit Macht Frei” (Umsebenzi Uyakukhulula) manje seliyisifaniso, ngemva kokuba elokuqala lintshontshiwe laphinde latholwa ngoDisemba odlule.
E-Warsaw, i-Central Train Station edidayo ihlelelwe ukulungiswa kabusha okudingeka kakhulu esikhathini esithile ngaphambi kwe-Euro Cup. Ngoba u-2010 uphawula usuku lokuzalwa lwama-200 lomqambi owazalelwa e-Polish u-Frederic Chopin, i-Poland igubha uNyaka we-Chopin (chopin2010.pl). Kanye namakhonsathi akhethekile nemicimbi, i-Warsaw's Chopin Museum ithole i-high-tech face-lift, nemibukiso esebenzisanayo ehambisana nezikhumbuzo ze-Chopin.
Imali kazwelonke yaseTurkey, kuze kube ngonyaka odlule ebizwa nge-Turkish lira entsha (“yeni Turk lirasi,” noma i-YTL), isiqanjwe kabusha. Manje sekuyi-TL, noma i-lira yaseTurkey. I-Mosque emangalisayo yase-Istanbul yase-Suleyman the Magnificent ivaliwe ukuze ilungiswe, cishe kuze kube ngu-August (kodwa usengavakashela amagceke ayo, amathuna kanye nama-mausoleums).
I-Galata Dervish Monastery eSifundeni Esisha sase-Istanbul cishe izovalwa ngasekupheleni kuka-2010 ukuze ilungiswe. Kodwa ngisho naphakathi nalo msebenzi, ungabona ukusebenza kwe-Whirling Dervishes. Umkhuba wezenkolo wamahora amabili wangempela, owenziwa abalandeli be-Muslim mystic Rumi, uzobanjwa ezindaweni zesikhashana (etiyetha eSifundazweni Esisha ngisho nasesiteshini sesitimela saseSirkeci; bona irumimevlevi.com).
Nomaphi lapho ukhuluma khona eMpumalanga Yurophu, uzothola ukuthi abantu abaningi bomdabu bakhuluma isiNgisi esihle kakhulu futhi bahlale benyakaza ukuze bahlabe umxhwele izivakashi zabo.
Noma yimaphi amaphethelo amabi asele enkathini yamakhomanisi avele engeze entendeni futhi afake i-carbonate okuhlangenwe nakho kwakho.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
