Here you have a visitors’ guide to Wakefield and the Five Towns. A region of West Yorkshire which has much to offer the visitor whether that be history, tradition, culture, nature, sport or some weird stuff.

Santorini is one of the most breathtaking places on Earth — a sun-drenched paradise of whitewashed villages, cobalt-blue domes, and sunsets that ignite the horizon in molten gold.

Rauen, die Markgrafensteine und Pieskow waren Orte, die Fontane auf seiner Fahrt in das Land Beeskow-Storkow besuchte. Und natürlich den Scharmützelsee, der wie die nahezu an die hundert andere Seen wegen seiner guten Wasserqualität zu einem Besuch in das Land Beeskow-Storkow einlädt, "ein wenig gekannter Winkel, der nichtsdestoweniger seine Schönheit und Geschichte hat." Man darf Fontane vertrauen.

Un pellegrinaggio lungo 900 chilometri, sui passi degli antichi pellegrini che percorrevano la via Francigena. Un pellegrinaggio è molto più che un viaggio a piedi, e un viaggio a piedi è molto più che un viaggio. Il mondo che si attraversa , che sia asfalto, natura, città, paesi, chiese, alberghi o poveri ostelli, risuona con il viandante e forma un’unica sinfonia le cui parole sono i pensieri, le emozioni, le preghiere, i sogni.

I treni aiutano a pensare. Tutti i grandi viaggi - dai pellegrinaggi cattolici al Grand Tour, dalla prima partenza con gli amici al viaggio di nozze - sono, in fondo, una scoperta di se stessi: il panorama che c'interessa sta dentro di noi.
