Nice sacred place, must be visited. Many famous people tombs here. Holy Trinity Alexander Nevskiy Lavra is a monastery located in the surroundings of St. Peterburg, you can reach it by city transport easily.The Cathedral features a large dome and two bell towers - very impressive inside and out.

I loved it, typecall for the time perriod and artistic. I also saw other cemeteries in the surroundings of the monastery and all together they are very beautiful. Some more in decay than others. All have Russian cultural element and I spent some hours exploring.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
