Nowadays, the architectural monument has been completely restored. The bright walls of the Chenonceau Castle are a real decoration of the river valley and look very picturesque, and the wing of the building, thrown over the Cher, gives the impression that the castle is floating on water.

A deep indentation behind the waterfall allows you to move freely behind it, thereby observing the Seljalandfoss from all sides. It is especially recommended to visit the waterfall in the evening, when the lighting around the waterfall becomes more saturated.
Egypt 🇪🇬, Old Cairo
The oldest part of the Egyptian capital, Cairo, is limited to several blocks built over Roman—era fortifications and Byzantine-era shopping plazas. The population here is predominantly Christian (Copts), and the sights are associated with evangelical events.
This part of the city is loved by tourists, unlike the rest of the quarters, where not only they do not take excursions, but they also do not recommend Europeans to visit. The carefully preserved atmosphere of Old Cairo allows anyone to plunge into the days when Egypt was the Babylon of the Byzantine Empire and the citadel of Christianity in North Africa.

Brazil 🇧🇷, Lencois-Maranensis
Right on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean is the most beautiful Brazilian National Park Lençóis Maranhenses (translated from Portuguese Lençóis Maranhenses - "sheets of Maranhenses"). Without a doubt, it should be attributed to the most mysterious places on our planet. The territory is occupied by snow-white sand dunes up to 40 meters high, between which small lakes with turquoise water can be seen here and there.
But Lens is not a desert at all, because it rains regularly here. Rainwater accumulates between the embankments, gradually becoming blue, green and turquoise and forming lagoons, in which, by the way, you can even swim.

There are restrictions on the use of cars on the island. There is also no mobile connection. An ideal place for those who want to experience unity with nature.
Mexico 🇲🇽, Isla Mujeres (Island of Women)
Isla Mujeres is a popular resort island in Mexico. You can get here quickly by ferry from Cancun; but the atmosphere here is like on another planet. Francisco Hernandez de Cordova, the first European to visit Yucatan, gave the island a name meaning "Island of Women" (from Spanish mujer — woman) — he went ashore in 1517 and found clay statues of half-dressed women on the island.
Today tourists have come here more often, and yet the resort on the island of Mujeres has largely preserved the unique atmosphere of a sleepy fishing village, and prices here are lower than in Cancun. The island is only 8 km long and 2 km wide, but exotic animals are found here. The climate of the island is tropical, the sea is turquoise—blue and warm all year round.
Serbia 🇷🇸, Kopaonik ski resort

Newgrange (Newgrange) (https://planetfor.me/place/112723 ) - is amazing, because until today it is unclear with what means it was built, as well as who the ancient stargazers were, who were amazingly able to determine the course of the sun.
The Newgrange, about 13 meters high, looks fascinating inside.
The tunnel is designed so that on the day of the winter equinox, the rising sun fully illuminates it.

Italy 🇮🇹, the "falling" Leaning Tower of Pisa
The Leaning Tower of Pisa has been falling for eight centuries. Because of this, the Italians themselves call it a "protracted miracle". The deviation increases by one millimeter every year. And the whole building deviated from the axis by more than five meters, which is not so little. But, no matter what, the Campanella survived even an earthquake and is open to the public today.
