The District is also home to a number of smaller lakes and tarns. These are equally stunning and arguably even more beautiful, such as Buttermere one of the least known of yet best loved by those who discover it, at least according to the 350 people who have all given it 5 out of 5 stars via the Trip Advisor website which has also awarded Buttermere a Certificate of Excellence.
9. To Get Romantic (Literarily)…
Ask a person to name something associated with the Lake District and second to water or lakes, they are likely to quip: ‘Wordsworth!’ The Lake District was not just Wordsworth’s home, but his spiritual home. Consequently, much of his poetry was written in, about and inspired by this enigmatic and enchanting landscape, including the poem which has since become the most famous to have ever been penned in the English language.
To celebrate, commemorate and show our enduring appreciate for one of the country and world’s finest poets and as well more generally the Romantic aesthetic and literary period which is so inextricably bound to the Lakes themselves, visitors to the district can in 2016 still visit Wordsworth’s home, Dove Cottage in Grasmere which is today a museum standing alongside the home of The Wordsworth Trust.
Last but not least, one of the best reasons to book a staycation in the Lakes is, quite simply, to escape the hustle, bustle and rat race of city life and simply reconnect, either with one’s self or nature.
Set amid jewel blue sea, the 89 islands, reefs and islets of the Kornati National Park create a true nautical paradise. If you want to take in all of these islands then your slalom sailing skills will be well and truly put to the test.
About the Kornati National Park
The idea for creating a National Park in Kornati was first mooted in 1965. From the very beginning, the aim with this national park was to preserve a region of unspoiled natural beauty. Sheep farming and wine making used to be the main pursuits on these islands, however now restaurants, tourist guest houses and welcoming bays are the main attractions in Kornati – alongside the gorgeous scenery of the Adriatic coast.
Amazing natural beauty
The Kornati National Park is home to some wonderful biodiversity. Species of particular interest that you will find in this area include the Eagle Owl and the Yellow Legged Gull. There are no less than eighteen different butterfly species spread out amongst the islands and plenty of mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish and beautiful plants. Whether you want to explore some caves or stroll on a sunny beach, take a dip in the inviting waters of the sea or go bird watching amid wildflowers on a grassy plain, this National Park will have plenty for you. This national park is also home to some very intriguing geological features, and so geologists come from far and wide throughout the year to unearth fossils, crystals and exciting rock strata.
A rich palimpsest of history
These islands are steeped in history. Before the Croats arrived around a century ago, there were Neolithic and Paleolithic populations, for instance, and the ways in which the various cultures have interacted over the years have resulted in a wonderfully diverse cultural atmosphere. Make sure to take a look at the traditional houses and pastures when you visit these islands, and to try a traditional dish or two at once of the delectable restaurants on the larger islands (there are over 20 restaurants to choose from so you will not go hungry!). There is so much to explore here!
A nautical paradise
As you can tell from the above, the Kornati National Park most certainly lives up to the epithet of ‘a nautical paradise‘. Combining natural beauty with biodiversity, and ample opportunities for sailing and water sports with a relaxed and culturally rich way of life, this National Park is a very desirable holiday destination. So why not pay a visit to the islands for your next holiday? You can either rent a yacht in Croatia and go exploring on your own or book a guided boat tour. Remember to bear in mind that an island pass will be needed in order to visit any and all of the islands that comprise this marine park.
Everyone who comes to Kornati discovers something new, whether that is a butterfly or a flower, a great spot for swimming or having a picnic or a wonderful geological feature. What will you discover when you decide to take a boat trip around the gorgeous islands of Croatia’s most famous ‘nautical paradise’?

A spectacular cathedral, Roman ruins, restored markets and delightful gardens are just a few of the joys of central Sofia, Bulgaria’s interesting capital. My wife and I arrived knowing little about the city and we discovered a place which we really enjoyed. Sofia’s main sights are nearly all located within a short walking distance of each other. After some sightseeing, dining and relaxing we left vowing that we would return to explore further before long.
Tsar Osvoboditel Monument.
This monument portrays the Russian Tsar Alexander II on horseback. It was erected in gratitude for the liberation of Bulgaria in 1878 from Ottoman rule. The 14-metre high statue is by the Italian sculptor Arnaldo Zucci. Around the pedestal are statues of Russian and Bulgarian fighters. In the spring the small garden around it is covered with flowers. The monument was restored in 2012 to its original condition.
National Assembly Building.
Across the road is this grand Neo-Renaissance style white structure from 1885 which houses the parliament. It is depicted on the Bulgarian 20 leva banknote. In 1997 the building was stormed and damaged, leading to the eventual downfall of the then ruling Socialist party. The words on the facade translate to something like “United we are strong” while on the roof are a row of Grecian-style urns. The interior has been refurbished several times but its original appearance has been basically preserved.
Alexander Nevski Cathedral.
This is without a doubt the most spectacular building in Sofia. The Neo-Byzantine style building is said to hold 8000 people. There are five aisles and three altars, some lovely stained glass windows, Venetian mosaics and dramatic murals. It is one of the largest Eastern Orthodox cathedrals in the world. It was started in 1882 but was not finished until 1912. The crypt below the cathedral is part of the National Art Gallery and there is art from the 4th to the 19th centuries. The focus is primarily on icon painting.
St Sofia.
It is just a hundred metres or so to another important church. This is the oldest Eastern Orthodox church in Sofia and the contrast in style between it and the cathedral could not be starker. The simple red brick church dates back to the 5th century and it gave its name to the present day capital back in the 14th century. During the Ottoman period, it was turned into a mosque but it was restored as a church after the liberation. Just outside the church burns the Eternal Flame of the Unknown Soldier where we watched a dignified military tribute taking place.
Russian Church.
Tsar Osvoboditel Blvd., known locally as the ‘Yellow Brick Road, is where you find this small and beautifully ornate Russian Church with its five golden onion domes. It was apparently built for a Russian diplomat who was afraid to worship in Bulgarian churches. While the outside is lovely, the interior, which is currently under repair, is quite dark. You can see the box where people place notes and wishes hoping for a miracle.
National Art Gallery.
This former Royal Palace has been partial renovated in recent times. It houses the national Art Gallery and the Ethnographic Museum. On entering the building you will see the impressive staircase that leads to the rococo-decorated rooms. The gallery space is very limited but there are some nice works on display. We hear that a brand new museum of art is being built. After viewing the art, go to the cafe at the back of the building which serves good tea and coffee in the peaceful garden with old trees.
Ivan Varov National Theatre.
Cross the road and walk through the park to the neoclassical theatre building which opened in 1907. It is imposing from the front with its large pediment supported on six white marble columns. Behind this, rise twin towers crowned with sculptures of the goddess, Nike. On a nice day, the area outside has stylish street cafes and when we visited there was an orchestra playing. The theatre has three stages with the main one able to seat 750 people. The building has been damaged by fire and bombs over the years but a restoration project a few years ago has returned it to excellent condition.
Archaeological Museum.
A little further west along the yellow brick road is this museum, the oldest in Bulgaria. It has been in this location inside the old Bujuk Mosque since 1899. The mosque itself dates back to the 15th century. The highlights include the Valchitran gold treasure from the 14th century BC, pre-historical monuments, many icons and the more recent Thracian gold discoveries. Quite a few of the exhibits have English descriptions, but the Thracian gold room has excellent and extensive English explanations.
St. George Rotunda.
Cross the road and enter the courtyard of the Presidency building. The 4th century round red brick church sits amongst the excavations of an ancient Roman town called Serdica. This is Sofia’s oldest preserved building and it is open to the public. The highlight is the three layers of frescoes under the dome, the earliest dating back to the 10th century. These were painted over during the Ottoman period when the building was used as a mosque.
Talk of Europe and art, food, music, dance, literature is what comes to the mind of a person. Europe is quite famous for these elements and you can never get away from these things whenever you visit this continent. Home to artistic buildings and several attractions, Europe has many beautiful cities waiting to be explored and London is one of them.
London, a city associated with famous and iconic landmarks has many festivals associated with it too. Though the people here are ultra-modern, but they are traditional also and give a lot of value to their culture. And when the culture is combined with some fun, it becomes the time of merry-making. Carnivals are one of the many festivals, where Londoners dance their way down the many streets in best of their attires and eat the diversified cuisines.
Notting Hill Carnival is one of the biggest street carnivals happening in the whole Europe, which originated in the year 1964 as a way for Afro-Caribbean communities to celebrate their own cultures and traditions. The roots of the carnival dates back to the 19th century for the Caribbean carnivals, people taking part in the carnival dress themselves in the costumes that mimic the European fashion of their former master along with wearing masks.
The carnival represents London’s multicultural past and present that displays an amazing array of sounds, colourful sights, and social solidarity. It takes place every August Bank Holiday weekend and attracts a million people every year. It also hosts a pre-carnival street party where there will be live performances from DJ Amy C, Helen Rogers, Uncle Dougs & Rachel Wallace along with many more artists. You’ll surely love to kick-start the carnival with the party.
