Vatican
One of the most interesting, mysterious and at the same time the tiniest places on earth is the Vatican city-state.

Many islands of Indonesia have volcanoes that are a local attraction. We will visit one of them – Bromo. This volcano is so popular that tours on it can be bought not only on the island of Java, but also on the neighboring island of Bali.
