Tbilisi is an exhilarating jumble of ancient architecture alive with a vibrant culture.
As the capital of the Republic of Georgia, Tbilisi is the country's largest city. Situated near the Silk Road, Tbilisi has long been important in world history. Today the city showcases medieval, neoclassical, Art Nouveau, modern, and Stalinist architecture.
With its past steeped in multiculturalism, tourists can explore time periods encompassing Soviet rule and Georgian independence. Old Town Tbilisi offers local art, wine houses, and family restaurants. Local cafes serve traditional khachapuri bread alongside meat dumplings called khinkali.
After luxuriating in a sulfur bath, cross the famous Dry Bridge. Explore the Holy Trinity Cathedral, the third largest Orthodox cathedral in the world. A funicular ride to Mtatsminda Park keeps kids engaged while adults enjoy the view. Visit Kartlis Deda, the stunning statue of a woman guarding the Republic of Georgia, by hopping the aerial tramway.
Every block offers flavors from the traditional supra, or feast. Meats are grilled while you wait. Churchkhela, a candy made of boiled fruit juice and nuts, is traditionally made in the fall. Many eating establishments make their own house wine.
Stroll along Rustaveli Avenue, meet the city's free-roaming cats and dogs, and explore Tbilisi's Old Town and architecture with the full-color photos in Tableaus of Tbilisi: From Rustaveli Avenue to Narikala Fortress(a Travel Photo Art book).

New Life in Dzveli T'bilisi.
Originally an administrative district, Old Tbilisi is a distinct area of the Republic of Georgia's largest city. At its heart, the Tbilisi Historic District straddles the Kura River. On the left bank are the Alexanderdorf German quarter, and the Avlabari Armenian and Georgian neighborhood. On the right stands the Persian Quarter known as Said-Abad.
The iconic wooden buildings with ornate balconies sit in the shadow of the ancient Narikala fortress. Dating from the 4th century, Shuris-tsikhe was originally called the Invidious Fort. Much later it became Narin Qala, Little Fortress. Much of what visitors see today dates from the 16th and 17th centuries.
Looking down on the original Old Tbilisi is Kartlis Deda. The monument atop Sololaki is sixty feet high. The aluminum figure wears the traditional Georgian national dress for women. She greets visitors who mean well with a bowl of wine in her left hand. In her right is a sword with which she greets those who mean Georgia harm.
Lower down, bathhouses utilize the sulfur spring. The water flows in an open canal through the middle of the Abanotubani, or bath, district. The round domes mark the Turkish baths. These ancient structures are still in operation and are open for public use.
Explore this astonishing maze with Original Old Tbilisi: From Kartlis Deda to the Sulfur Baths (a Travel Photo Art book).

Georgian culture is a stunning blend of west and east.
Standing at the heart of the Caucasus Mountains, the Republic of Georgia enjoys the best of many worlds. Its culture evolved over thousands of years, and enjoyed its own renaissance and golden age of literature, art, architecture, and science. Today's visitors find echoes of Classical Greece and the Roman Empire mixed with influences from the Byzantine and Russian Empires.
Signagi, or Sighnaghi, is a small town at the heart of Georgia's wine region. While 98% of the world's wine is made with modern methods, in this nation, the old ways prevail. From Signagi's narrow cobblestone streets, visitors can tour Georgian Orthodox churches. Beyond the pastel houses lies the beautiful Alazani Valley.
Stepantsminda, also known as Kazbegi, is a winter ski destination. In summer, this cozy village offers waterfalls and the unique opportunity to hike Gergeti Glacier. Overlooked by the Gergeti Trinity Church, the village rests among alpine meadows that are perfect for jaunts on horseback.
Nearer to Tbilisi, tourists can explore the Ananuri castle complex. The square tower is exceptionally preserved and looks out over the Aragvi River. The outer walls are decorated with ornaments that have drawn international attention. The complex has been considered for listing as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Georgia is truly the gem of Europe. Journey from Signagi to Stepantsminda with the full-color photos in Grandeur in the Republic of Georgia (a Travel Photo Art book).

Think Aussies speak English? Think again
Between the strong accent, Aussie slang, Aboriginal words that have become a common part of speech, and words garnered from their United Kingdom-based history, understanding Australian English can be a challenge.
After Laine Cunningham spent six months camping alone in the Outback, she wrote this book to help other travelers make the most of their vacations. She began by traveling from Sydney, New South Wales to Adelaide, South Australia. From there she headed to Coober Pedy, and then further to Alice Springs, Northern Territory. A jog east took her to a cattle range near the Queensland Coast, up to Cairns, and then back out to Darwin. Another wide arc headed down the coast of Western Australia through Monkey Mia and Perth. Then she made the long drive across the Nullarbor Plain back to Adelaide.
By covering over 17,000 miles, Laine compiled a wealth of information about Australian and Aboriginal slang. On the Wallaby Track contains most of what you'll need to eat, sleep, and survive in the beautiful and astonishing country called Australia. Every visitor will get more out of their vacation from accommodations to tours. And you won't have to spend six months figuring it out
Many words and phrases are used in quotes from award-winning novels and nonfiction books by the same author. Travel tips and Australia facts about wildlife, food, rental cars, camping, adventures, travel and tourism, cultural tours and more are touched on in the definitions, making this nearly as useful as a Lonely Planet guidebook for Down Under.
On the Wallaby Track is part of a series that offers fun and fascinating information to travelers. Other titles include Woman Alone, a warm and funny women's adventure travel memoir about her six-month solo camping journey through the Outback popular with fans of Eat Pray Love and Wild.

An Ostiense neighborhood is known poetically as the village in the city of Rome.

Sidewalks pass by dozens of courtyards built with unique configurations of gardens, stairways and balconies. Eclectic architecture displays playful and refined elements to create a suburb unlike any other in the city of Rome.

If only two words could be used to describe Rome, no pair could be better than "creativity" and "culture." Even the most casual visitor is swept into the city's dizzying array of ancient sites, stunning artwork, and new surprises around every corner.
The Eternal City is the capital of Italy, and perhaps its most striking travel destination. The historic city center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that charges every vacation with the energy of the Roman Empire founded on the Seven Hills.
An exploration of Europe cannot be complete until Rome's particular adventures have been experienced. The palaces and church cathedrals, Roman ruins, monuments, fountains and statues each offer a new and exciting journey. Visitors to Italy can expand their knowledge base with an artist's view of the ancient city of Rome.
The color photos in Ruins of Rome I & II were taken at Palazzo Senatorio, Saint Peter's Basilica and Vatican City, Via della Conciliazione, the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, the Roman Forum, the Pantheon, San Paolo fuori le mura, Piazza del Popolo, Villa Borghese, various obelisks, and other sites. Step into this whirling place and become absorbed by its vibrant heart.

As one of the oldest cities in the world, Lisbon blends ancient grit with modern glamour for an unparalleled travel experience.
S o Jorge Castle, built on a site that was fortified as early as the 1st century BC, flies the Portuguese flag. From its walls, the Alfama district tumbles down to the Rio Tejo, or Tagus River. Because it survived the devastating earthquake of 1755, Alfama is the oldest district in the city.
The Jer nimos Monastery, richly decorated in the Manueline and Plateresque styles, offers a quiet stroll beneath arches carved from golden limestone. King Manuel I ordered the monastery constructed to serve Portuguese explorers.
The Rossio, or King Pedro IV Square, is located in the Pombaline Lower Town. Popular since the Middle Ages, modern citizens prefer to meet there. Perhaps the best view is from above, where visitors can look down and see wide streets cutting through the maze to this central spot.
Continue the tradition of exploration in one of the world's oldest cities with the color photos in Linger in Lisbon: From Bel m Tower to the Tagus River (a Travel Photo Art book).
