Vienne , Vienna Austrian Capital

Vienna, situated on the shores of the Danube, is an historic city by excellence. It was the capital of the Habsburg Empire for almost seven centuries, and that of Austria since 1918. In this respect, she was deeply marked by the reign of the first who shaped its architecture in a spectacular way. The result is today a mass of contradictions made ​​at the time of grandiosity and obsolescence, classicism and modernity.

At the outset, Vienna amazes by its romantic and flamboyant architecture which led to his being a World Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. Monuments, and many noteworthy, are perfectly in line with the city's standing. It's a real pleasure to stroll through the magnificent avenues. However, very quickly, it is "too much ". Vienna proves timeless with its blare and chamber music. While the setting is romantic, but we feel constantly dusting its prestigious past.

Fortunately, away from touristic areas, the Austrian capital has reinvented itself. In its cultural policy first. Museums, so far quite conservative, tend to present avant-garde collections and agree with the issues of contemporary societies. Moreover, the number of galleries of contemporary art did not grown exponentially? Similarly, in the Strauss waltzes are geared sounds folk / rock from underground clubs in the capital. You understood, Vienna is a city of contradictions on which it is difficult to give an opinion. Generally, we love it or hate it.

Safe travel : Part 1

Many people in traveling are terrified from the prospect of being victims of aggression. The anxious, fearful, obsessed with the safety, listen well: travel is not dangerous! This is not because you will leave your familiar surroundings you will necessarily fall into a death trap.
That said, there is a minimum of precautions and these precautions are the same in New York, Rome, Bangkok , La Paz or every where in the world. It is true that there are places where you must be more attentive than others. For example, the risk of theft is higher in Peru and Bolivia, who knows why! However, high risk or low risk, ways to counter them are exactly the same. It should not take fewer precautions when the risk is minimal or beeing more vigilant when the risk is high. All preventive measures are just plain common sense and one has only to adapt to the conditions of the countries that you visit. The risk exists, but it's a controlled risk that some rules of prudence quite elementary significantly reduce it.



People like to associate the concept of danger to that of poverty: a rich country would be less dangerous than a poor country. The feeling of absolute security we feel in a familiar environment is as misleading as the feeling of threat that can affect us when it comes out. This is not because the environment is different that it's more threatening. All the regulars of the trip will tell you : it's still in big U.S cities where they are the most attentive.
For the ordinary traveler, there are very few countries at risk. Those who are a danger , are almost completely inaccessible to tourists. Moreover, apart from an aid worker or journalist, who might want to spend his vacation in a country in civil war? However, some regions of countries entirely safe may be more riskful (as West Papua in Indonesia) and some major western cities, perfectly respectable also have unsavory neighborhoods (like the Downtown Miami). They are avoided altogether.
It's the security like health care. The problems would be minimal if they occur at home, but when one is away they can become extremely annoying.

Precautions

- The outward signs of wealth

Around the world, it is better to not tempt thieves by displaying their trappings of wealth.Leaves your jewelry at home, bought a cheap watch for the journey,put small earrings worthless, avoid the fancy clothes and makeup too scholarly,replace beautiful bags and  beautiful leather bags with accessories less valuable. In short,  avoid attracting attention. If you travel from a luxury hotel to another, where the customer is often treated on its apparent signs of wealth, it is transformed into an ordinary person when you come out into the street.

- Luggage

We must never, however little it is, put bags on the floor or leave your luggage unattended, especially in crowded public places like railway stations, airports and public procurement. There may be people waiting around for a split second of inattention on the part of the traveler to leave with his possessions.

It is wise in his travel, pack his bags with a small padlock. Besides that this should reassure people who fear to use smugglers for profit or products promoted on a flight, some instructions will refuse bags which are not locked.It Must sometimes provide a bicycle chain and padlock to secure its large amounts of luggage racks. You can also use this method to tie his suitcase on the occasion of a long journey by public transport.

- Wallets

Never place your wallet in your backpack. It would make life beautiful for the thief who you would have seen. Wallets must be stowed in a front pocket, never in the back pocket of trousers, too easy to strip. It is recommended to keep only a minimum of money and credit cards to safety elsewhere.


- Currency


Always count your money on the place, in front of the person who has surrendered. Some of them intend to take a generous tip at the expense of unsuspecting tourists. When you pay for a service or a purchase, you can take into account the money that he/she should give you ,you should go to the calculator, in font of the officer. It's much more embarrassing for him not to put everything. And even recount what he gave us!

You may think if you look int: this picture that is like a mythical legends of ' thousand and one nights', but think that this magnificent painting is a true picture of a charming places on our planet that we don't know?!

These amazing rocky islands are just a part of the thousands of small islands located in the "Halong Bay" in Vietnam.

Which you will learn through this photographed trip :



This amazing place is located in the province of Quang Ninh in the north-east of Vietnam, covers an area of 1553 square kilometers , that icnlude 1960  small island!

Surprisingly, these islands are not distributed regularly on Halong Bay, but 775 of them concentrated in the middle of the Gulf (an area of 334 km² only), what gave it this magical scenes that we see.

The reason for the existence of these rocks in that amazing way, they are two explanations, let's start Boktherhma worse:

The locals habitants  say that in thousands of years ago, when the Chinese came to  occupate Vietnam,t4 he Vietnamese emperor sent a  serious dragon to help the Vietnamese to cope with the Chinese,so this dragon jet thousands of pearls (do the tally from the flames, it seems!), which turned to rocks ,to prevent the Chinese from the progress!

The second explanation is a scientific explanation which says that the islands due to  a scientific phenomenon called karst, where the limestone areas turned to this as a result of exposure to different geological effects over the past 500 million years! (I think the easiest theory is the first one 'Dragon' :D )

Another interesting thing is that many of these islands are hollow from the within! Therefore,they contain a network of caves make it a wonderful tourist places!

In addition ,Halong Bay is home to 14 kinds of flowers, and 60 kinds of animals!

As a result,Halong Bay is considered by the UNESCO in list of the World human Heritage .

The region has a tropical maritime climate of adorable, and temperatures ranging between 15-25 degrees Celsius, so Halong Bay has become one of the most attractive tourist destinations in the world.

Sport Tourism

Across the country ,they  organize walks, runs and marathons, competed in all-terrain vehicle and crossed the Negev desert, and groups of cyclists ride across the country.

Industrial tourism

For several years, tourism is becoming a very privileged sector causing each country to improve its environment. Currently, industries are also affected by this phenomenon and many of them make it a priority.Does this mean it that industrial tourism has a positive contribution to their economic affairs? To find the answer to this question, first let's develop the concept of this kind of tourism, second we move to the benefits that  it can generate .

Concept de tourisme industriel

By definition, the industrial tourism  represents all forms of plant visits made by tourists, students, professionals or individuals. It is becoming increasingly common and it's attracting more and more visitors. Indeed, several companies have already introduced these days in their monthly expenses and most students establish in advance the programs of visits to factories to practice their theoretical studies.

Most of these explorations are not free and visiting hours are usually fixed in advance. The costs of visits is the value of information (useful for each industry) and offers that the industries  give to visitors. These offers may be samples of their products, tasting, or the license to test the  manufactured equipment etc.. Furthermore, timed to allow these plants to prepare for the actions they want to perform before the public and conceal the operations they want to keep secret.

All sectors are affected by this type of tourism, but the most dynamic one's are agro-food and crafts. For example, we find the basement of the Chartreuse in Voiron in Isere, manufacturer of the famous liqueur of the Carthusians whose formula and the recipe has been kept unchanged for centuries, which provides a tour of 60 people on average every 10 minutes offers adults the opportunity to taste the products of the establishment, despite the free service. We can also quote the great workshop Cornille-Havard Channel, which produces bells in a modern way by using computers. He also receives a large number of tourists throughout the year and its rate of access is 3.35 euros per person.

There are  companies which are very famous in the organization of open-door to the public and their customers to visit their factories. Such is the example of the Rance tidal power plant, producing electricity in trade and represented by the EDF, which is home alone for over 200,000 visitors each year and thus takes a special place among the industrial sites world's most visited. There is also the site of Airbus, which, for 9 euros a tour bus for an hour and a half and offers its customers the panels and models showing the manufacture of aircraft.

So the tourism industry is more likely to only a few sectors, almost all economic activities were launched into the breach. In fact, all have seen the benefits they could draw to open the doors of their factories to the public.

The Benefits of industrial tourism

For the company, visits by the public in its workshops are proving to be a relevant and fun to make themselves known. While the objectives of these tourists are not directly in the interest of the industry in question since their first goal is simple curiosity, but these needs have discovered a very effective advertising impact for the company. EDF is the case that, by opening its doors to people who want to have ideas about the job, immediately perceived an increase in its customer base and thereby increase its sales. In other words, the communication to the public enables companies to develop their brand image and customer loyalty.

For the public, the tourism industry can acquire new knowledge. Indeed, the fact of entering the heart of the action answers many questions: how does one manufactures inks and pens? Or does one find the materials to produce porcelain plates? What are the steps they have to cross before getting to produce wine or other drinks? etc.. Moreover, it is also a way to guide young students on what they want done in their lives, the education level they should reach in order to realize the profession they intend to operate.

But tourism industry also has a positive effect on regional and national level. Indeed, by agreeing to inform the public about the technology and economic heritage of the region, an industry of a region is another challenge to make it better. This type of healthy competition does not kill the company but the push to always improve.

In conclusion, given that globalization is a forced march, companies in all areas are encouraged to connect with the global economic order not to remain a laggard.
