won't happen until either they are deported or they are released from detention. but all of this, certainly the hardening of this rhetoric, gives you a clear indication that donald trump is intending to talk about immigration going into the midterm elections here, which are held in november. and those are crucial congress elections which will be extremely divisive. women in saudi arabia have been permitted to drive a car for the first time today. the move is part of a programme of modernisation under crown prince mohamed bin salman. but there's been criticism that many leading women's rights activists who challenged the ban are still in prison. hello, if you have got the weekend off, you're onto a winner. it will stay dry, and strong sunshine. very one, as well. almost uk wide. out there tonight, things turn a little bit fresh after a sunny day. clear skies that the vast majority. bit of low cloud is hitting the coast, and temperatures just not quite as cool

as last night, but still in single figures in the countryside for some of you. another very warm day on monday, particular in both, web and northern ireland. tebbit is widely into the mid—20s. please guys the most, a bit more cloud developing through the highlands and islands, and still chance for some local... posts tend to be a bit fresher than in land. temperatures could peak at 29 degrees in london. more of that heat, more of that such a decline of the next few days, goodbye. —— more of that sunshine. good evening. this is bbc news. our latest headlines: england fans celebrate after harry kane's men make it through to the knock out stages of the football world cup in russia thanks to a record—breaking win over panama. new measures aimed at halving the number of obese children in england by 2030 have been

announced by the government. polls have closed in the turkish presidential election and local media is reporting president erdogan is in the lead after most of the votes have been counted. a british couple, gayle and charlie anderson, have been found dead in their home in mount pleasant jamaica. police are treating the deaths as homicide. leaders of 16 eu member states have been holding talks in brussels on migration, after italy and malta banned charity rescue boats from their ports. president trump has said illegal immigrants to the us should be deported immediately and not allowed in his words to "invade the country". now on bbc news, the travel show. this week we're in cairo, where i get to check out a new style of music that has become a youtube sensation. we head to italy for a cut—price guide to florence. there are many, many places you can see forfree in florence.

florence is an open—air museum. we find out how to make your travel pictures pop online. and we take a walk on the wild side in spain. we start this week in florence. it's one of the most beautiful cities in italy, full of renaissance art and architecture. but recent price increases at art galleries and museums have scared off some travellers. so we sent keith wallace to see if there are ways to experience this

iconic italian city on a budget. they call it the cradle of the renaissance, and you can see why. the streets, piazzas and galleries drip with pieces from some of the most celebrated figures in history. wheel of the lesser figures who worked here and you will see what the fuss is about. giotto, donatello, michelangelo, leonardo da vinci. here's where you go if you want to see all those masters in one place. it is the uffizi gallery and it is incredibly popular. you can tell that because there is a huge queue. are you paying the 20 euros? yes. quite expensive. a little, but i hope it's worth it. me too. this year the uffizi has more than doubled its entry fee from 8 euros to 20 euros, if you go in high season. which is obviously a lot

of money and frankly more than i could afford. if you bring your family here on holiday you will find your budget depleting quickly. they are trying to drive you towards the new ticket. there's a 38 euro combined ticket, which gets you into a variety of museums and art galleries. and also a 50 euro annual subscription. for comparison, the equivalent ticket at the louvre in paris and at madrid's prado museum is 15 euros. at london's national gallery, admission is free. so much impressions. we see art from 400 years, i think. so i am very impressed. and the price, 20 euros? a little too high, i say. the art was pretty amazing but at the same time i think it should be more inclusive, because that's what art is about. it's about making sure everyone can see it. but if you're unable or unwilling to cough up,

you will not completely miss out. there are incredible buildings and statues around every corner. ciao! francesca tells me she thinks the city is one big open—air gallery. so, tell me about david. he was made by michelangelo when he was just 26 years old. he made it for the city. at the end of the 1800s the city decided to put the statue inside the museum and they made a copy. wait, so that is a fake david? yes, a fake david. what?! well, it is a replica, we don't like the word fake. it is a replica from the 1900s, 1911, actually. it is a modern one. but this is definitely real. just around the corner from david lies a tiny, unassuming chapel you would normally walk straight past. where is this? this is one of the hidden gems of florence, an institution which is probably unknown even to most florentines.

the chapel is a charitable institution founded in the 15th century for middle—classes who had fallen on hard times. it still operates today and meets every friday to decide who should benefit from its donations. but it's the art we're here for. so, the frescoes were made by domenico ghirlandaio. he was the main renaissance artist and he was, by the way, the master of michelangelo. you always recognise the good men because of their clothing. they have the red and black robes. and also, they always have paper in their hands because it was a contract, they needed to leave everything written down, and the money in the other hand. seems like an odd place to bring me. it is. our next stop won't be on many itineraries but francesca maintains it gives you a fascinating insight into florentine history. we have chapels with spires and arches and pointed arches and marbles, egyptian style, for example, or neo—reinassance style.

statues made by the greatest names, actually. if you didn't want to pay the 20 euros to get in to the uffizi there is still plenty to see in florence and you wouldn't feel like you've missed out. absolutely. there are plenty of places to see for free in florence. florence is an open—air museum. but the renaissance was about science as well as art. so here is one final recommendation i have been given. inside this florentine palace they're attempting to find out the following. if i take a bean plant down a fast slide, will it feel less ——as stressed as me? i'm serious. this is a good contraption, isn't it? i need one of these for pottering around the garden. the slide was designed by carsten holler, who has installed similar chutes in london's tate modern and new york's new museum. it's as fast as you would expect.

—— it's faster than you would expect. once you're down, you hand over your little green friend for some tests. and take it for the measurements. people say, "i talk to my plants all the time." there's really no scientific evidence to say... you could find that evidence! we could, perhaps. we are doing this through measurements about whether the plant can bring in co2 or release water and whether those values change depending on the conditions, so if they went down the slide or they did not go down the slide, if they went down with a person or not. 0k, what kind of results are you seeing so far? the control plants, which come from the growth room have the highest values of photosynthetic rate, for example. the plants which are going down the slide, those values are lower. when we have them go down the slide with a person who values ——those values are even lower. so there is something negative that is happening with the plant

and that it experiences as it goes down the slide. while the results are inconclusive as yet, my plant, it turns out, showed signs of severe stress and leaf trauma. the florence experiment continues at the palazzo strozzi until the 26th of august. that was keith wallace, exploring the beautiful city of florence without breaking the bank. and if you're keen to take a trip to italy, here are some travel show tips on things to maybe think about before you go. if you're after a beach holiday, the southern region of campania might be worth looking at this year. it now has more blue flag clean beach awards than any other area of the country, except liguria and tuscany. in total, italy now has 10% of all the world's blue flag beaches. the sistine chapel is a perennially popular thing to see in rome, but there is a new show that brings some of michelangelo's stunning frescoes to life. secrets of the sistine chapel

uses electronic music, laser projection and high—definition images of the artwork in a 9 million euro stage production. but if food is at the top of your list of reasons to visit italy, why not check out a foodie theme park that has recently opened close to bologna ? italy world opened at the end of last year and it's a massive site where you can explore food factories and attend a choice of up to 30 events or classes every day. we are heading across the mediterranean now from italy to malaga in spain, where you will find the caminito del ray, or kings park, which has been described as one ——or king's path, which has been described as one of the world's scariest hikes. i would look away now if you're not a fan of heights. still to come on the travel show: mike is here with the latest

in trending travel, including the buskers who've gone cashless and the best colours to use to make your pictures pop online. and i hit the streets here in cairo to meet the young performers at the forefront of the new music craze that's taking the country by storm. so stay with us for that. it's time for trending travel, our pick of the best travel stories, photos, and videos that have come across our feed this month. more and more of us are going cashless on our travels, but as we switch to contactless cards and mobile payments, there is one type of person who misses out, the humble busker. there's no space for change in a digital wallet, leaving a trail of empty hats and guitar cases. that's why london recently became

the first city in the world to try out contactless payments to street musicians. it's just so much better as a busker. it doesn't interrupt my flow. i can just play. and then someone can tap and itjust resets and i don't have to stop playing to re—input the amount. i just leave it and it stays the same all the time. i think it's growing. i think it's something people will need to get used to over time. i'm hoping in the future it will be something people use regularly. people seem really impressed by the idea of it in general. it's so much more convenient for people. this is the future. if the world's your office, it can be hard to find a quiet space to work. that's why business travellers going through new york's la guardia airport have the chance to book a jabberbox. it's an office on demand, a bookable cubicle with internet access and a charging port. this is the first one that's been stalled in a public place. you'll have to pay for the privilege though. prices begin at $10 for 15 minutes. researchers from ad agency the pantone colour institute claim

to have identified the science of sharing. the four colours most likely to get your travel pictures liked and shared. drum roll please. the fours colours are aqua blue, mud brown, leaf green, and coral pink. so find a scene that combines those four elements and watch the instagram likes pile—up. now for some of the best photos you have sent us using the hashtag travel tuesday. scott sent us this view over greenland from the cockpit of a 747. chiara followed this road to the old man of store in scotland. ——0ld man of storr. and slavomir shared this rainbow sunset from slovakia. now, let's look at the travel videos clocking up the views this month. lebanon marks 75 years of independence this year. the country has seen its fair share of conflict over the years and travel warnings remain in place for several areas. we spoke to two filmmakers about their experiences. i was born and raised in lebanon.

so to express this special relationship with my country i wanted to shoot and show intimate moments, for example when my grandma is cooking. if you would like to visit the country, first of all, don't forget to try all the lebanese food, because lebanese cuisine is extremely fabulous. second of all, don't be scared to interact with lebanese people, because lebanese people are really friendly. my videos are dynamic, first, i like to use my camera like a third hand, almost. when i'm shooting. i move a lot. i look for people, faces, architecture. and don't forget, if you have a favourite travel moment

you want to share with us and the rest of the world, tag us with hashtag bbc travel show. well, to finish this week's programme, here in cairo a new music genre has risen from the streets to inspire a freshfaced generation of stars. i've been to meet some of them. since 2002, tourists wanting to hear traditional egyptian folk music have gone to the makan cultural centre. tonight the band mazaher is playing zar, which has roots in east african ritual. in egypt today there is supposedly

only a handful of people who still perform it. i have been told that zar is mainly performed by women and that hypnotic, rhythmic thumping of drums is a traditional and ritualistic form of community healing. it's really spiritual. but on the streets, there's a new kind of music that mixes folk traditions with an aggressive new sound. this is mahragan. music plays. it means festive, it means festival. it is very much a street music. it evolved from a previous genre, called chaabi, it means of the people or popular.

and it's very, very unique to egypt, and specifically cairo. it's loud and brash and has roots very similar to the way hip hop evolved in new york. you will mostly find them, 90% of the time, in working class areas, in small alleyways, they will put on a show, bring out the lights and speakers and put on a show in the street. and how are tourists receiving the music? yeah, because it's commercialising at this point, it was an underground type of music and is filtering to the commercial scene, you will see it in a classy nightclub sometimes play one of these tracks. it is very now and very unique to this period we are in these days. do you think the revolution and the protests, do you think from that there was a lot of creativity born? absolutely, absolutely. say what you will about the status of egypt right now,

what is abundantly clear is that people have come out of their shells, there is a sense of self expression that perhaps wasn't there so much before. previously, a lot of people wanted to look outwards for music and arts and culture, they looked to the us and americans scenes for the music we all listen to, recently it has been a source of pride that we are producing an interesting type of music that has been very well received. mahragan has launched the careers of a new generation of egyptian music stars. i'm about to meet a band that have a hit that has had 125 million youtube views. shobeik lobeik is a 3—piece band from alexandria. hassan writes and composes the songs. his friend and collaborator, ahmed,

is one of the managers. and ahmed's cousin ferris is the singer. despite these defined roles, they still have some creative differences. what about your biggest hit single? what was it called? a lot of mahragan combines driving beats with performers singing about the issues that affect their lives. there is no friend is about friendships falling apart. and what about abroad?

are you going to play in other countries, will you come to the uk and play some festivals? 0ther mahragan performers have started to play sets at european nightclubs. for now, club nights remain the best chance cairo's tourists to catch

these modern egyptian beats. sadly, that's your lot from us for now. join us next week when... mike is in bulgaria, diving for long—lost treasure in the black sea. there is a giant flying saucer slowly flying over your head. get an exclusive the travel show look inside a fascinating building from the country's more recent communist past. make sure you join us for that, if you can. don't forget you can keep up with us in real—time on social media. all the details should be on your screens. but from me and all the travel show team here in cairo, it's goodbye. did evening. who needs to go abroad

when you good weather like we have at the moment? clear skies from top to hail of the country this afternoon. this was the view earlier in aberdeenshire, northern scotland had a better day today than yesterday, little bit of cloud across the likes of the hebrides, 0rkney, shetland, this image shows just how clear the skies have been. the cloud in the north dissipated in the afternoon and continues into night. the reason we have clear skies is because this nice dry area of high pressure over us and if you're on holiday this week it is your friend because it

you're on holiday this week it is yourfriend because it isn't you're on holiday this week it is your friend because it isn't going anywhere. tonight, clear skies, temperatures taking a bit of a dip in the countryside, maybe teams in one 01’ in the countryside, maybe teams in one or two city centres but into the suburbs and the countryside, into single figures, so you can open the wind in the morning and let the fresh air back in. the lovely start of the day. the nights and days are warming up as we go through the day, high pressure over us, not going to be dragging ourfrom a very humid direction, quite dry but it is circling around the area of high pressure, sunrise we will see high temperatures from day—to—day veering from one day to the next. winds are light here, skies clear, and do much of scotla nd light here, skies clear, and do much of scotland and northern ireland the highlands and islands a bit more cloud, 15—16 behind, could get up to 25 in adding more —— in aviemore, 29 in south—east england. tuesday, we do it again. there could be the threat of a spot of rain, very isolated, but most places would be

drive. hotting up in western in london wells and parts of scotland, temperatures 25—29 for one little bit cooler on these coast of england, more of a breeze blowing, but notice the deeper orange colours in the west, broaching 50 degrees potentially in one or two spots in the west. —— 30 degrees. much more co mforta ble the west. —— 30 degrees. much more comfortable towards the east. the night will start to warm up a little bit but nothing desperately extreme, this is sheffield, for instance, in the coming week, temperatures generally around the teams, and for most of us. 0nce generally around the teams, and for most of us. once the sun is up, the temperatures will shoot up to 42nd half of the week, again, meet tight 20s, when rhodri spots getting close to 30. into the weekend, temperature dropping a bit buggy story is a dry one week long. goodbye for now. —— but the story is a dry one. this is bbc world news today.
