taking them to where they can taste the latest trends even the rather simple ones. that inside something's are lenders really love is neat and forced the people have a special way of grilling. so we're going to kalinski to have a nice sausage and it was this. one unique feature of this place is that everything put on the grill comes from regional butchers. all 3 sauces and soul mate they wouldn't have it any other way fast food is nothing new but high quality fast food is pretty special. i love it spicy. the next stop is hidden away in the old town's maze of streets and alleys i would never have found my way without. sound or deluxe is a nice long shot that sells specialties from the region and that's where we're headed now that invigorates tonight. i looked.

the shelves are stocked with delicacies made insulting and friends in luxembourg all carefully selected by the discerning inexperienced t.v. and heinz. did you know that 75 percent of all mirabelle also grown in the rain so almost every eaten in the world is ground within 50 to 70 kilometers of here i didn't know that now i do want to say this one is even tasty it's caramelized it's got an extra boost. the french like jam sweet. doctrine because they're. delicious but sweet yes instant touch of caramel. our last stop is kind of an outlier the only vegan cafe in a town full of meat lovers. since so much is in charge. his cakes certainly sell well but how does he persuade locals to go for vegan

cuisine. plus the news of what are traditional dishes here in sol and i'm guessing they are dealing with yeah well i've created vegan versions of several typical zonda. yes. the bit of billy's explain what that is. actually it's a great big potato pancakes fried in the pan or roasted in the oven. that's all it is this is i dressed it up a little through an leak in onions it's really a very traditional dish but insall and it's made with bacon and sometimes egg i leave that out and i add some tofu. vegan versions of saul and classics. instead of bacon can spend over the skeptics it seems so. what do we have here but things are going. down playings potatoes and fall

bacon cream sauce on the spectrum sauce. whatever you say. so what's the verdict. delicious. and you know we're interested in your holiday videos every week we show our viewers clip and this time it's from the get go. little from madrid he's been to southeast europe to bosnia herzegovina well and i've never been there so let's take a look together.

industrial monument and a unesco world heritage site. the folk lincoln iron works its melted pig iron for over 100 years until 1986. it's the only iron works from the boom time of the industrial age to be preserved completely intact tours give visitors a glimpse of working life from long ago. and make a feature i think it's pretty cool because there's so much iron condition and it's so huge. that such a big plant was so much technology and machinery. highlight is the blasting whole colossal machines generated the wind needed for blast furnace his. work at the furnace is was grueling especially in the extreme heat of the coating plant.

over 17000 people toiled away here at one point. nowadays the facility is ideally suited to arctic submissions. there are 6000 square meters of space to display all kinds of creative ideas every 2 years the urban art presence street art from the world over. it's also the perfect setting to make a lot of noise. since 2012 for one weekend in summer the electromagnetic music festival transforms the full klingon ironworks into one of germany's while this re venue's it's been a lot of space is a listen it's a fabulous location the vibe is incredible it's really great. it's

a place to be if you let. the ironworks maybe shut down but it's almost never. the romans recognize saul and special called long ago as excavations near the village of bach have shown archaeologists uncovered the remains of a roman villa here it's been reconstructed on its ancient foundations the only one of its kind in the world i want to know more so i for arranged to take a tour. isn't here we are in the reception hall this is where guests were received. typical of these halls where the conference ceilings that we have the semi columns the plaster columns decorating the roof or down below are the frescoes in the pump

a star you know we're not here we've been able to reconstruct an original most 8th floor. of. all the tiles found here are some 2000 years old archaeologists believe the entire room was paved with them. we move on to the heart of every roman villa the bass. they were big enough to accommodate in the press friends and business associates. isn't a sister called aria mob boss. this is the hot water basin. that's we want to know just imagine when the bombs were in use you had an. indoor climate comparable with a modern steam bath it was 35 degrees celsius in here with condensation dripping from the ceiling. on behind that wall as a copper kettle to heat the water over

a fire warden the hot water was let into the basin through this lion's head. the smoke from the fires directed through the under floor system into the house to warm the rooms. and there jaime you see bath sandals which still look modern today and use in flip flops exactly ancient flip flops on any idea why people had to wear them most hygiene maybe good gas but the floor was just too hot for the fires weren't all that far away or so hot people found it necessary to protect their feet so they made these ancient flip flops and if you toss the ball. directly i could take a bath right here and now they are fully functional. another essential part of the roman lifestyle was of course good food up to 30 courses might be served at feasts .

you were this is where the roman slaves the savages prepare the meals and as we can see everything here is functional and see the sort on the walls we also hold roman style cooking events here. against the other what did the romans eat. yeah you are high society tossed pretty much everything in the part that had a heart beat stuffed flamingo tongues stuffed doll mice we found quite a lot of oyster shells here and the excavations. the hour before go on the go all classes lived on legumes and grains which were cooked much like a result or. it was very nutritious and filling up the market. a roman feast something for a future visit. and it's a right look just before we say goodbye i've got a little surprise for you i just need to man it well for christ let's see.

here yes cloudy yes felix lucas i'm sure you can imagine that a stately house like this was the dream of many a century and all prefect. blended plans to spend their retirement. i hope you've enjoyed our tour and know a little more than when you arrived as. i said. if you think you're not at all or because it was my pleasure see you back here soon at the villa. well we're leaving the romans and sol and now i'm going to brazil for all meet the local fly there we're going to meet up with mark. and he's going to show us his hometown. they visit so welcome to. here in. a state in brazil. so

professor my name's markel truly or oppose oh i'm a retired university professor and i'm going to show you the city starting with st francis of assisi church which is often displayed on post cards. and maybe it's a catholic church built in the late 18th century based in part on designs by antonio francisco lisboa who was known as the little cripple because an illness had left him disabled and disfigured if you go into this economy but that didn't stop him from becoming the greatest sculptor of brazil's baroque. has a strong religious tradition there are chapels all over the city this one depicts a scene from the passion of christ. sound is 300 years old when we knew it was founded in the early 18th century. but i'll go it

was discovered in the region colonists and adventurers came pouring in. the facades in stately homes still worth like the city's affluent past. its old center is a protected historic site on them. so no no hey it was the 85000 people live here and the city lies about 200 kilometers from the state capital belo horizonte going to live that is economy is based on the service sector followed by industry and agriculture. since the one edge of the old town is the market. here you can buy handmade crafts and our traditional spirits. and other regional specialties feel. like you see those who are also sold here are the local sweets made from coconut.

with. your group we like to have them with me nice cheese and the food it's made from raw milk and sold all over brazil as a specialty i. don't think is there so if you know the historic train station of south devon a is another key site it houses the railway museum. the famous money or smoking maria still runs visitors take it to the nearby city of t. that and pace visit this. this must along the 12 kilometer route you can see the countryside of minas guys where's les meadows and mountains in particular the shell jose mountains. that's what we've come to the end of our tour and our visit of shiloh's out del day
