Niger	Bradt
Автор: Geels Jolijn Издательство: Bradt, 2006	PDF, 262 страницы, 7.86 МБ 5 Оценка:
This first English-language guide to the Saharan country of Niger spans the densely populated regions of the south — a colorful melting pot of cultures — and the hostile desert landscape of the north — featuring some of the most stunning sand dunes in Africa. Transport options for travelers are a particular feature of the guide — including long-distance connections to neighboring countries, river trips on the River Niger and camel trekking in the Massif de Air and Tenere desert regions, home to the nomadic Tuareg people. As more independent travelers are finding their way to Niger, this guide will focus on both ends of the market: the upmarket traveler looking for background information and the budget traveler with a need to know all the practicalities. Features include: Full range of travel and accommodation options; Present-day peoples and ethnic groups, including the Hausa, the Peul, and the Tuareg, including vocabulary and phrases; Niger culture and religion; Wildlife and ecosystems.

If you wonder: 'What have the Romans ever done for us?' you should perhaps visit Volubilis, the best-preserved Roman site in present-day Morocco, or the spectacular amphitheatre at El Jem, built by the wealthy proconsul Gordion who later committed suicide within his own great monument. North Africa: The Roman Coast is the first guide dedicated to the Roman heritage sites of modern-day Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Libya, and it brings the old stones to life with stories both triumphant and tragic of the characters that lived among them. It additionally gives details of nearby attractions of the present day, such as the Medina and Kasbah at Rabat in Morocco and the charming seaside villages of Sidi Bou Said and Mahdia in Tunisia, to create a guide that appeals to ruin-seekers and beach-lovers alike.

Landlocked between Russia and China, and surrounded by the shimmering Caspian Sea shores and the Altai and Tian Shan mountains, a trip to the exotic wilds of Kazakhstan will erase any association Westerners may have with the film Borat.

Now updated with more detail, Kazakhstan provides in-depth explanation of the rich and unique Kazakh traditions and nomadic heritage. The most comprehensive guide available, it's invaluable for anyone visiting or living in Kazakhstan. Paul Brummell is a career diplomat with the UK's Foreign Commonwealth Office.
