If you are interested in the history of Cologne, then go to the Pretorium, where you can get acquainted with the life of the inhabitants of the Colony and see luxury goods, the ruins of the palace of the governor of Rome are waiting for you there.

Roman Pretorium

Traces of the Romans' stay in Cologne can be seen under the town hall building, where the ruins of the palace of the Roman governor (Latin Praetorium, German Prätorium - römischer Statthalterpalast), dating back to the I-IV centuries, were discovered. n e. This is the most significant Roman building on the Rhine.

Here you will see other exhibits dating back to Roman times. The Roman sewer system (Römischer Abwasserkanal), along which you can go and marvel at the skill of ancient engineers, is perfectly preserved.

Cars on the island of Favignana

A bicycle, without a doubt, is the most convenient and rational mode of transport on the island of Favignana. You can go around the whole island without pedaling slowly, in an hour and a half. As soon as we got to the island by speed boat from Trapani, we went to the tuna museum. Today I would like to share with you a series of antique cars that I managed to capture during our half-hour walk around the island.

Favignana - an island you want to return to

We spent only one day on the island of Favignana in early June 2014, but already in the first hours of our trip it became clear that we would have to return here more than once. We went there as part of a trip to the south of Italy on the recommendation of our Sicilian friend Mario. It is on Favignan that the famous Cala Rosa Bay is located, one of the ten best beaches in Italy, and several other no less beautiful beaches.

Tuna Museum on the island of Favignana

Beautiful Sicily reveals its secrets. On the largest island of the Aegadian archipelago of Favignan opened the Museum of Tuna. Now tourists will be able to find out what many generations of local residents have dedicated themselves to and how the legendary Mattan took place. The sea at Favignana is always crystal clear. No wonder the red bay (Cala Rossa), located on the island, is among the ten best beaches in Italy.
