smoldering ever since. coal mining has left an indelible mark on the region coal was mined and ion was melted here for over 250 years. one is off limits to visitors today anyone is welcome to tour the site. the age of coal mining has been preserved for posterity in many of the decommissioned industrial complexes. industry and ideally nature can be found side by side in a sauna and. the zeinab bike trail runs by examples of both it's just one of many well marked cycling paths crisscrossing the state. results cycle path also passes through the state capitals up look and with a population of 180000 it's the only major city insolvent.

985 european history was made this monument commemorates the moment when 5 e.u. member states 1st agreed to dispense with international border checks the birth of the schengen agreement. the open european buddhists lives on brilliantly especially when it comes to cut in their region nights. 7 restaurants in this small states have been awarded mission stillness. a feast for the senses and a fitting way to wind up a sightseeing tour osama. this is the state capital. here just as everywhere insolvent people appreciate being able to move freely between neighboring countries.

that european union it's not an abstract idea it's visibly a life and will. be in the center of the whole town just sunk you on market square . it's filled book shops cafes and pops here you can really feel just how cosmopolitan this city is. going to be ever go to france or luxembourg. and what do you there. on the weekends i enjoy going to france to shop the brecon is right next to france as if the markets are wonderful and i like to go 2 minutes a beautiful city out of luxembourg is beautiful too it's nice to wander around to a little shopping that's the way it is when you live on the border. what do you think of for europe without borders here in this region. if you want. my think it's

really great i come from cameroon and here i have a chance to get to know different cultures. so it's easy for me to study in france or germany or visit there. i think it's awesome. you know i don't actually from the area around on but i really savor the lifestyle here. and the city itself the people at the market and the 2 languages french german. wife i think it's wonderful finished. saver that reminds me i've arranged to take a call in every city to work the old town is something like an experimental kitchen for example who can. regularly guide its tourists through the winding alleyways taking them to where they can taste the latest trends even the rather simple ones. that inside some things are lenders really love is made and forced people have

a special way of grilling. so we're going to kalinski to have a nice sausage. was this. one unique feature of this place is that everything put on the grill comes from regional butchers. all 3 sauces. all made 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 but as they get steamed. the shelves are stocked with delicacies made insulting and france and luxemburg all carefully selected by the discerning and experienced team. and how. did you know

that 75 percent of all mirabelle's have grown in the rain so almost every mirabelle eaten in the world is ground within 50 to 70 kilometers of here was both 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. is in charge of. his cakes certainly sell well but how does he persuade locals to go for vegan cuisine. fast on the what are traditional dishes here insall and i'm guessing they are didn't. yeah well i've created begin versions of several typical zonda.

yes. they become please 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 i threw in leaking onions it's really a very traditional dish but insall and it's made with bacon and sometimes egg i leave that out and add some tofu on. the conversions of salt and classics. tofu instead of speaking can spend over the skeptics it seems so. ok what do we have here. downplaying potatoes and phobe a can cream sauce on the spectrum's or.

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 well and i've never been there so let's take a look together. this

splendid building and met les was originally in the abbey for the past 2 centuries its house they had quarters of phil. the company has been making ceramics since 748 some is displayed in the museum 15000 town painted art nouveau toilets cover the

walls of the museum cafe among the designer pieces is this washbasin by luigi from the 1970 s. . the mosaic floors of the infamous titanic were made in metal. factories triggered in 25 countries. manufacturing ceramics still goes on in silence today but mining is history what's left is a fascinating industrial landscape and some parts are even open to visitors the best known attraction is the 1st link to the largest fireworks in the country industrial monument and in the school 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. i think it's pretty cool because there's so much iron and it's so huge. that such a big plant was so much technology and machinery so. highlight is the blasting haul colossal machines generated the wind needed for blast furnace. 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 prison

street art from the world over. it's also the perfect setting to make a lot of noise. since 2012 so one weekend in summer the electromagnetic music festival transforms the full klingon ironworks into one of germany's wildest rain venues is fatal this place 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 techno. be ironworks maybe shut down but its doors almost never closed. the romans recognised sol 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. or typical of these halls where the conference ceilings then we have the semi columns the plaster columns decorating the roof or down below are the frescoes in the pump a star. or not here we've been able to reconstruct an original most. of. all the mosaic 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. yard is a. hot spot. this is the hot water basin. that we want to know just imagine when the bars 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. behind that wall as a copper kettle to heat the water over a fire warden is hot water was let into the basin through this lion's head. the smoke from the fire was directed through the under-floor system into the house to warm the rooms. when i was about really i mean you see bath sandals which still look modern today and flip flops exactly ancient flip flops on any idea why people

had to wear them with the 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 was the wrong. 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 . there were prisoners where the roman slaves the savages prepare the meals and as we can see everything here is functional can even see the sort on the walls we also hold roman style cooking events here. so there what did the romans eat. we were our

high society tossed pretty much everything in the park that had a heart beat stuffed flamingo tongues started we found quite a lot of oyster shells here and the excavations and. body our 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. a roman feast something for a future visit. so it's all right lucas before we say goodbye i've got a little surprise for you i just need to manage it well for price 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 all. 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

antonio francisco lisboa who was known as the little cripple because an illness had left him disabled and disfigured if you don't do is a killer 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 the.

so no one wants the 85000 people live here and the city lies about 200 kilometers from the state capital belo horizonte going to visit his 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 you. take your we like to have them with me nice cheese and your food it's made from raw milk and sold all over brazil as a specialty item. and it seems that so few know the historic train station of south devon a is another key site that houses the railway museum. good that the

the bali gone is a monument to the year old coal mining it's also meant as a symbol of how all people here in seoul and intend to approach the future. tourism is part of this future and i think that the small saw and has great potential roman heritage industrial legacy rivers forests and then there's the proximity to our neighbors france and luxemburg and of course you mustn't forget the really good food here well on that note bye bye see you next time somewhere else in germany.
