'Euro'pean Experience

I never ever expected to go around Europe, atleast not these many countries, six. Am very fortunate to visit all these places. My stay, here for about 3 months (yes, still am here in NL) and will be back to Chennai on 09th Oct. Even though it is not possible atleast for me) to explain my experience in words, still will try to do it.

Every country has its own flavour and history, which is clearly evident. One of the most common places in all the countries is the Cathedral/Church. But, its one of the first tourist attractions with a lot of architectural excellence and a justified reason behind it. It is more or less like Temples in India.

Apart from these, there are other attractions like, in the Netherlands, ofcourse Amsterdam, Madurodam, Utrecht-Parliament house & other official buildings, the world famous Windmills, Cheese factory, Canal drive, Blue Pottery factory, the famous SAIL event which normally takes place once in 5 years in Amsterdam, Madamme Tussade, in Berlin, Parliament House, Berlin TV Tower, Charlie Check point, Berlin Wall; in Switzerland, ofcourse the famous Alps, Mont Blanc rope car, Red train journey, Geneva Lake, Lausaunne, Ouchy port, Musee Olympicia, Roman stonhenge dated back to 15 B.C,; in Belgium, Harbour, the Palace, the famous Minekkin Pis, Belgium Atom; in Spain, beautiful Barcelona city, the landmark Olympic stadium('92), Gaudi's work/museum, lovely beach, the palace, etc; in Paris, ofcourse its obvious, the eiffel tower, Monalisa meuseum, Napolean's grave, Champs-Elysess and other landmark places.

Iam very fortunate to visit all these places. After seeing all these places, I have a strong feeling that there are a lot of improvements, care towards our valuable monuments, buildings, places...etc.

Let me cherish all these memories...
