Описание:
In New Orleans, the Cities of the Dead are beautiful, historic places to roam. The styles and sculptures decorating the crypts and mausoleums often reflect activities the interred individuals pursued during their lives. Flowers, mementos, and decorative elements added to the gravesites make every visit moving.
Tours and self-guided journeys through the cemeteries add a new angle to the many sights in New Orleans. Although the mausoleums are fascinating, living history waits around every corner of this venerable and historic city. Every street pulses with its own type of nightlife.
Today New Orleans and nearby Jefferson Parish and East Baton Rouge Parish are striking places for tourism with unique French and Spanish Creole architecture, a mild climate, and a cross-cultural and multilingual heritage.
Visitors flock to Caf du Monde, stroll down Bourbon Street to take in the jazz music, relax in Jackson Square, refresh at St. Louis Cathedral, and picnic at Lake Pontchartrain. Mardi Gras might be special, but travelers who explore at other times of the year discover adventures and excitement steeped in culture and history. Visitors to the American South can expand their knowledge base with an artist's view of the city of New Orleans and its Cities of the Dead.
The thirty-five color photos in this collection were taken at Greenwood Cemetery & Mausoleum, St. Louis Cemetery No. 2, and Saint Patrick Cemetery No. 2. They have been paired with titles that evoke the atmosphere of the Necropolises of New Orleans II.

Prague offers truly beautiful discoveries only minutes away from the crowded tourist sites.
Most people who visit Prague limit their experience to the small area bounded by Old Town Square and Prague Castle. Only a block or two away from the main boulevards are quiet cafes and bustling, three-way intersections where residents live and work amid the iconic architecture.
A short tram ride reveals additional treasures like Vysehrad, a historic fort on the banks of the Vltava River. The site is home to the Basilica of St. Peter and St. Paul as well as Prague's oldest rotunda, which dates from the 11th century. From the elevated expanse of Letn Park, visitors can snap unique pictures of Prague Old Town and the Vltava River.
Leave the crowds behind and discover the real Prague with the full-color photos in Hidden Prague: From the Vltava River to Vysehrad Castle (a Travel Photo Art book).
