La chanson "Comme un homme' de Mulan avec paroles.
The song "I'll make a man out of you" in French with translation.
Ok, the important part. Je suis désolé si j'ai fait une erreur. :(
Of course, "Attaquons" would mean "We attack" or "let's attack", but I think "tackle" would make more sense in English.
I believe "saurai" could be translated as "be able to" or "would know to".

This article is about the mammals found in Metropolitan France. For the mammals of Overseas departments and territories of France, see List of mammals of Guadeloupe, List of mammals of Martinique, List of mammals of French Guiana, List of mammals of French Polynesia, List of mammals of Réunion, List of mammals of Mayotte.
This is a list of the "mammal species recorded in France". There are 120 mammal species in France, of which 1 is critically endangered, 2 are endangered, 13 are vulnerable, and 4 are near-threatened. 1 of the species listed for France is considered to be extinct.
The following tags are used to highlight each species' conservation status as assessed by the IUCN:
Some species were assessed using an earlier set of criteria. Species assessed using this system have the following instead of Near Threatened and Least Concern categories:
----
Rodents make up the largest order of mammals, with over 40 percent of mammalian species. They have two incisors in the upper and lower jaw which grow continually and must be keep short by gnawing. Most rodents are small though the capybara can weigh up to 45 kg .
----
The lagomorphs comprise two families, Leporidae , and Ochotonidae . Though they can resemble rodents, and were classified as a superfamily in that order until the early 20th century, they have since been considered a separate order. They differ from rodents in a number of physical characteristics, such as having four incisors in the upper jaw rather than two.

Of course, "Attaquons" would mean "We attack" or "let's attack", but I think "tackle" would make more sense in English.
I believe "saurai" could be translated as "be able to" or "would know to".
At 1:17 when Mushu says "flanque les foies" the phrase "avoir les foies" means to like "have/be scared/given the creeps" something like that.
"Tout en nage" means "to be sweating a lot" or "covered in sweat".
Also, I think "Sois plus violent que les cours de torrent" should've been translated as "Be more violent than the course of the stream".
Think that's it. Hope you enjoy the video! Like and comment! :)

France, officially the French Republic, is a sovereign country in Western Europe that includes several overseas regions and territories. Metropolitan France extends from the Mediterranean Sea to the English Channel and the North Sea, and from the Rhine to the Atlantic Ocean. It is one of only three countries (with Morocco and Spain) to have both Atlantic and Mediterranean coastlines. Due to its shape, it is often referred to in French as l'Hexagone ("The Hexagon").
By area, France is the 42nd largest country in the world but the largest country in Western Europe and the European Union, and the third-largest in Europe as a whole. With a population approaching 67 million, it is the 20th most populated country and the second-most populated country in the EU. France is a unitary semi-presidential republic with its capital in Paris, the nation's largest city and the main cultural and commercial center.
The current Constitution of France, adopted by referendum on 4 October 1958, establishes the country as secular and democratic, with its sovereignty derived from the people. The nation's ideals are expressed in the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, one of the world's earliest documents on human rights, which was formulated during the seminal French Revolution of the late 18th century.

France is divided into 27 administrative regions, 22 of which are in Metropolitan France, and five of which are overseas. Corsica is a territorial collectivity (French collectivité territoriale), but is considered a region in mainstream usage, and is even shown as such on the INSEE website. Each mainland region and Corsica are further subdivided into departments, ranging in number from 2 to 8 per region for the metropolitan ones whereas the overseas regions technically consist of only one department each. The term region was officially created by the Law of Decentralization (2 March 1982), which also gave regions their legal status. The first direct elections for regional representatives took place on 16 March 1986.

France is divided into 27 administrative regions, 22 of which are in Metropolitan France, and five of which are overseas. Corsica is a territorial collectivity (French collectivité territoriale), but is considered a region in mainstream usage, and is even shown as such on the INSEE website. Each mainland region and Corsica are further subdivided into departments, ranging in number from 2 to 8 per region for the metropolitan ones whereas the overseas regions technically consist of only one department each. The term region was officially created by the Law of Decentralization (2 March 1982), which also gave regions their legal status. The first direct elections for regional representatives took place on 16 March 1986.

France is a beautiful country that has given so much to the world and still has a lot to offer. It shouldn't come as a coincidence to you that France is my country of birth and I am myself a Frenchman who just happens to love and value the land of Liberty, Equality, Fraternit y(Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité in French). France has a population of 67 million people, comprising territory in western Europe and several overseas regions and territories. The European part of France is also known as the Metropolitan France, whose population is about 64 million people.
Paris is the administrative, political and financial capital of France and it is also the largest city in the country. There are also other cities like: Lyon, Marseilles, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Montpelier, Strasbourg, Cannes, Calais, Lille, Rennes etc. The Constitution of France establishes the state as secular and democratic, with its sovereignty derived from the people. The French citizens enjoy a high standard of living, and the country performs well in international rankings of education, health care, life expectancy, civil liberties, and human development. France is both a founding member of the UN, NATO and the EU and plays a big role in international foreign policy. France is a country full of conspicuous places. These places not only content the passion of a traveler, but also create an aspiration to live in France. Different events throughout the ancient period, middle ages, and towards the modern era have shaped France into a dynamic and ever evolving congregation of people.
France is divided into 27 administrative regions (French: régions administratives), 22 of which are in Metropolitan France and five of which are overseas regions. Corsica is a territorial collectivity (French collectivité territoriale), but is considered a region in mainstream usage, and is even shown as such on the INSEE website. The mainland regions and Corsica are each further subdivided into departments, ranging in number from 2 to 8 per region for the metropolitan regions; the overseas regions technically consist of only one department each.
France has the world's sixth-largest economy by nominal figures and the ninth largest economy by PPP figures. It has the third-largest economy in Europe with Germany and the UK in 1st and 2nd.The OECD is headquartered in Paris, the nation's financial capital. The chemical industry is a key sector for France, helping to develop other manufacturing activities and contributing to economic growth. France's tourism industry is a major component of the economy, as France is the most visited destination in the world. We has recorded 84.7 million visitors to our country last year, a figure so staggeringly high that nowhere else even comes close. No other nation surpassed the 70 million mark, with the US in second place (69.8 million), and plucky Britain in eighth place, with 31.2 million people heading to our shores – not that much more than a third of the total going to France.

"La Marseillaise" is the national anthem of France.
The song was written in 1792 by Claude Joseph Rouget de Lisle in Strasbourg after the declaration of war by France against Austria, and was originally titled "Chant de guerre pour l'Armée du Rhin". The Marseillaise was a revolutionary song, an anthem to freedom, a patriotic call to mobilize all the citizens and an exhortation to fight against tyranny and foreign invasion. The French National Convention adopted it as the Republic's anthem in 1795. It acquired its nickname after being sung in Paris by volunteers from Marseille marching on the capital.
The song is the first example of the "European march" anthemic style. The anthem's evocative melody and lyrics have led to its widespread use as a song of revolution and its incorporation into many pieces of classical and popular music.

Leaving Barcelona, The Best City in the World. Off to France! Marseille, here we come!
Welcome to the region of Provence, France.
Just Landed in Marseille, Maddy's in France! Put that on the Bucket List.
Maddy: "Oui, Oui."
King of the North! Yah! We're in Marseille, going to grab the bags and head to the city center. You can take a shuttle for 8 euro over here so we're going to the city center, drop off our bags at the train station and have some lunch.
So we got our bags, I was just worried about searching for a Starbucks in Marseille City but no need, Starbucks at the airport! Going to cop the mug now.
And there it is, and they got Lyon! ...YES! So Marseille Airport has France, Marseille, little expresso mugs and Lyon. That's freaking awesome, I don't have to go on a search for it now.
The airport shuttle to the city center of Marseille will take you about 25 minutes and will cost you 8 euro. Visit the airport website Marseille.aeroport.fr to book your shuttle in advance.
We're in Marseille at the train station (Gare de Marseille Saint Charles) and we're going to leave our bags here for a couple of hours and then go have some lunch and check out Notre Dame de la Garde. Got to drop the bags off real quick. It's over this way so come follow me.... KING OF THE NORTH!
We're looking for the subway Brah.
Maddy: To go where?
To go to the Vieux Port.
Me and Pops are here in Marseille looking around, check out the Vieux Port. Were going to walk over this way and go kick it.
Hey Maddy.
Maddy: We're in Francois.
We are in Les Echevins right now and having red wine, were here for lunch. Go it off of TripAdvisor, they rated it high so I figured we'd try it out and we're going to check out Notre Dame de la Garde after. So we got our Appetizers, I got the squid with a little salad and some bread. Maddy got the Chicken Caesar Salad. First meal in France, Bon a petit!
So our main course just came in and we got this off of Trip Advisor so we get 20% off and it's like a course deal. I have the Risotto with Shrimp and some squid and maybe some scallops.
And Maddy got the... what did you get Maddy?
Maddy: Steak, beef with french fries and a little bit of salad.
Looks Good!
Alot of French Restaurants have English translated menus.
First French meal, Fantastic!
Maddy: We have leftovers.
We've got leftovers for the hotel. Restaurant Les Echevins, I recommend it, it's like off the beaten path corner. Away from the tourist traps (It's reasonable). TripAdvisor gives you 20 percent off and the bill wasn't bad at all so try it out!
Were here at the Vieux Port, Center of the city of Marseille. I just had a great lunch, I'm about five pounds heavier now and check out all the yachts. Marseille is a big seafood town so alot of food here is very fresh. I had some of the most fresh squid I've ever had. So let's go explore!
There's the little Petit Train (Les petits trains de Marseille). A round trip to Notre Dame de la Garde on the Les Petit Train will cost you about 8 euro and take about 3 hours. So me and Maddy are on the Les Petit Train to go to Notre Dame de la Garde which is featured on the Starbucks mug. Found it at the airport, don't have to look for one in town.
We're up at the top of the hill overlooking the city of Marseille with Maddy.
We're here at Notre Dame de la Garde, look at the view of Marseille from here and the French Riviera right there, turn around up to the Notre Dame de la Garde. Very beautiful scenery.
After a quick photo op it was back down the hill to the Vieux Port. The les Petit Train leaves every 20 minutes from the exact same spot (at Notre Dame de la Garde parking lot).
So we were here for about 4 and a half hours and we utilized our time right. Had a great lunch, went to the Vieux Port, took the le Petit Train up to Notre Dame de la Garde and now were back and got some Marseille Soap.
Maddy: For you Mom.
For Mother.
Well it's Au Revoir from Marseille. Next on Jaycation, we take a boat ride over to Monaco. We visit the famous Monte Carlo Casino and check out the streets of the famous (Monaco) Grand Prix.

Video Transcription:
Leaving Barcelona, The Best City in the World. Off to France! Marseille, here we come!
Welcome to the region of Provence, France.
Just Landed in Marseille, Maddy's in France! Put that on the Bucket List.
Maddy: "Oui, Oui."
King of the North! Yah! We're in Marseille, going to grab the bags and head to the city center. You can take a shuttle for 8 euro over here so we're going to the city center, drop off our bags at the train station and have some lunch.
So we got our bags, I was just worried about searching for a Starbucks in Marseille City but no need, Starbucks at the airport! Going to cop the mug now.
And there it is, and they got Lyon! ...YES! So Marseille Airport has France, Marseille, little expresso mugs and Lyon. That's freaking awesome, I don't have to go on a search for it now.
The airport shuttle to the city center of Marseille will take you about 25 minutes and will cost you 8 euro. Visit the airport website Marseille.aeroport.fr to book your shuttle in advance.
We're in Marseille at the train station (Gare de Marseille Saint Charles) and we're going to leave our bags here for a couple of hours and then go have some lunch and check out Notre Dame de la Garde. Got to drop the bags off real quick. It's over this way so come follow me.... KING OF THE NORTH!
We're looking for the subway Brah.
Maddy: To go where?
To go to the Vieux Port.
Me and Pops are here in Marseille looking around, check out the Vieux Port. Were going to walk over this way and go kick it.
Hey Maddy.
Maddy: We're in Francois.
We are in Les Echevins right now and having red wine, were here for lunch. Go it off of TripAdvisor, they rated it high so I figured we'd try it out and we're going to check out Notre Dame de la Garde after. So we got our Appetizers, I got the squid with a little salad and some bread. Maddy got the Chicken Caesar Salad. First meal in France, Bon a petit!

Paris, the cosmopolitan capital of France, is one of the largest agglomerations in Europe, with 2.2 million people living in the dense, central city and almost 12 million people living in the whole metropolitan area. Located in the north of France on the river Seine, Paris has the reputation of being the most beautiful and romantic of all cities, brimming with historic associations and remaining vastly influential in the realms of culture, art, fashion, food and design. Dubbed the City of Light (la Ville Lumière) and Capital of Fashion, it is home to the world's finest and most luxurious fashion designers and cosmetics, such as Chanel, Dior, Yves Saint-Laurent, Guerlain, Lancôme, L'Oréal, Clarins, etc. A large part of the city, including the River Seine, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city has the second highest number of Michelin-restaurants in the world (after Tokyo) and contains numerous iconic landmarks, such as the world's most visited tourist site the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Louvre Museum, Moulin Rouge, Lido etc, making it the most popular tourist destination in the world with 45 million tourists annually.
Landmarks in Paris
=============
Arc de Triomphe (8th)— The Arc de Triomphe exudes grandeur and offers a central view of the city Métro/RER Charles de Gaulle-Etoile
Catacombs (14th)— Used to store the exhumed bones of about 6 million people from the overflowing Paris cemeteries. They fill a section of caverns and tunnels that are the remains of old stone mines underneath the city. (There is a limit to the number of visitors allowed within the Catacombs at one time (200 persons). So, if you arrive just after opening, you must wait until someone exits, approximately 45-60 minutes, before anyone is admitted). Métro Denfert-Rochereau
Château de Versailles (Versailles)— Must be seen. France's most exquisite chateau, on the outskirts of the city, easily visited by train. Once the home to Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. RER Versailles Rive Gauche
The Eiffel Tower (Tour Eiffel) (7th)— No other monument better symbolizes Paris. Métro Bir-Hakeim (6) or RER Champ de Mars-Tour Eiffel
Grand Arche de la Défense (La Défense)— A modern office-building variant of the Arc de Triomphe. Métro/RER La Défense
Notre Dame Cathedral (4th)— Impressive Gothic cathedral that was the inspiration for Victor Hugo's novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Climb to the top! Métro Cité (4) or RER Saint-Michel-Notre Dame
Opera Garnier (9th)— Masterpiece of theatre architecture of the 19th century built by Charles Garnier and inaugurated in 1875 housing the Paris Opera since it was founded by Louis XIV. Métro Opéra
Pantheon (5th)— Underneath, the final resting place for the great heroes of the French Republic including Voltaire, Victor Hugo, and Marie Curie; above, a marvellous view of the city. Métro Cardinal Lemoine (10) or RER Luxembourg
Père-Lachaise Cemetery (20th)— Unlike any cemetery in the world. Ornate grave stones, monuments set among tree lined lanes. See the graves of Jim Morrison, Oscar Wilde, and Frederic Chopin, amongst many others. Métro Père Lachaise
Sacré Coeur (18th)— A church perched on top of the highest point in Paris. Behind the church is the artists' area, in front are spectacular views of the whole city. Métro Anvers (2) or Abbesses (12), then climb the stairs on Rue Foyatier or take the funicular to the top of the hill.
Sainte Chapelle (1st)— Exquisite stained glass chapel. More beautiful interior than the gloomy Notre Dame Cathedral. Métro Cité

Montreal - Quebec - Canada http://goo.gl/LHslES
First-time visitors never fail to be surprised by Montreal; French-speaking with grand old buildings and a European vibe, it sits apart from other North American cities.
In fact, it really is like no other. Montreal combines old-warm charm and metropolitan energy, small-town warmth and friendliness with vibrant, cosmopolitan cool and bohemian vibes with lively, upbeat sparks. Unlike the modern sprawls sometimes associated with other Canadian urban centres, Montreal is anything but samey. In fact, its intoxicating diversity -- when it comes to ethnicity, culture, language and cuisine -- is what makes this city tick.
For gourmands, the city has plenty to offer; it claims to have the largest number of eateries per capita in North America. Food and drink are celebrated with gusto with a number of enticing culinary events throughout the year. In addition, the city's public markets are something to truly savour -- tuck into delicious regional specialities like crepes and fried squid and ubiquitous maple food products as you browse countless stalls selling tantalising treats.
When it comes to sightseeing, there's plenty to gawp at. Thanks to a relatively small downtown area and squeaky clean public transport system, tourists can explore the city safe in knowledge that they won't get lost, or indeed hassled.
Enjoy a horse-drawn carriage ride (calèche) along the St Laurence River in Old Montreal and amble down to the buzzing harbourfront replete with cyclists, roller-bladers, pedal boats and passers-by. Stroll to The Plateau where wrought-iron staircases, designer fashion boutiques, a thriving arts scene and snazzy nightspots pepper its funky streets. Pop over to Mile End, once the home to the city's Jewish and Italian communities, and now a cool district with quirky restaurants, cafes, shops and bars to explore. Spend some time in Downtown offering a fabulous mix of soaring skyscrapers and heritage buildings intermingled with quaint boutiques. Soak up the peaceful vibes in The Village, one of the largest gay districts in North America, where you can dine al fresco in the summer when the main drag, Sainte-Catherine Street, becomes pedestrianised. Sip a cappuccino in Little Italy, home to one of the city's best markets, the Jean-Talon Market, or escape from the urban hustle to Pôle des Rapides, a 21km-long (12 miles) recreational park just minutes from downtown where you can enjoy a lazy cruise along the locks of the Lachine Canal.
Meanwhile, Montreal is the gateway to some incredible natural surroundings -- steal away to the Laurentians for a day or weekend trip to sample its golf courses, spa hotels and tiny mountain villages. Or head south east to the Montérégie, home to orchards, vineyards and maple groves. Meanwhile, the Eastern Townships draw legions of cyclists, thanks to 500km (310 miles) of winding biking trails through unspoilt countryside and towns characterised by Victorian architecture.
Back in the city itself, plan your visit to coincide with one of the city's cultural or sporting events -- from fireworks or food, to jazz music or chamber music, international tennis or the Grand Prix, there's sure to be something on to pique your interest.

25 Things To Do in Tokyo, Japan (Watch This Before You Go)
Get info about things to do, where to stay, and the best food to eat on your visit to Tokyo, Japan. Here's the guide: http://wp.me/psd9b-4EA
Tokyo (東京), Japan,...
Get info about things to do, where to stay, and the best food to eat on your visit to Tokyo, Japan. Here's the guide: http://wp.me/psd9b-4EA
Tokyo (東京), Japan, is one of the world's greatest cities, and there's so much to do and see when you visit. From temples and shrines, to gardens and museums, you'll never run out of attractions. Out of all the things you could do, I've chosen a top 25 list for this awesome city (and just so you know food is my first choice in Tokyo)!
1. Ameya-Yokochō (アメヤ横丁) - A giant open air market that offers clothes, cosmetics, food, and restaurants and bars.

Barcelona (/bɑrsəˈloʊnə/, Catalan: [bəɾsəˈlonə], Spanish: [barθeˈlona]) is the capital city of the autonomous community of Catalonia in Spain and the country's 2nd largest city, with a population of 1.6 million[2] within its administrative limits. Its urban area extends beyond the administrative city limits with a population of around 4.5 million people, being the sixth-most populous urban area in the European Union after Paris, London, Madrid, the Ruhr area and Milan. About five million people live in the Barcelona metropolitan area.[3][4][5][6][7] It is the largest metropolis on the Mediterranean Sea, located on the coast between the mouths of the rivers Llobregat and Besòs, and bounded to the west by the Serra de Collserola mountain range, the tallest peak of which is 512 metres (1,680 ft) high.
Founded as a Roman city, in the Middle Ages Barcelona became the capital of the County of Barcelona. After merging with the Kingdom of Aragon, Barcelona continued to be an important city in the Crown of Aragon. Besieged several times during its history, Barcelona has a rich cultural heritage and is today an important cultural centre and a major tourist destination. Particularly renowned are the architectural works of Antoni Gaudí and Lluís Domènech i Montaner, which have been designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The headquarters of the Union for the Mediterranean is located in Barcelona. The city is known for hosting the 1992 Summer Olympics as well as world-class conferences and expositions and also many international sport tournaments.
Barcelona is one of the world's leading tourist, economic, trade fair and cultural centres, and its influence in commerce, education, entertainment, media, fashion, science, and the arts all contribute to its status as one of the world's major global cities.[8][9] It is a major cultural and economic centre in southwestern Europe, 24th in the world (before Zürich, after Frankfurt)[10] and a financial centre. In 2008 it was the fourth most economically powerful city by GDP in the European Union and 35th in the world with GDP amounting to €177 billion.[11] In 2012 Barcelona had a GDP of $170 billion; it is leading Spain on both employment and GDP per capita change.[12] In 2009 the city was ranked Europe's third and one of the world's most successful as a city brand.[13] In the same year the city was ranked Europe's fourth best city for business and fastest improving European city, with growth improved by 17% per year,[14] but it has since been in a full recession with declines in both employment and GDP per capita, with some recent signs of the beginning of an economic recovery.[15] Since 2011 Barcelona is a leading smart city in Europe.[16] Barcelona is a transport hub with the Port of Barcelona being one of Europe's principal seaports and busiest European passenger port,[17] an international airport, Barcelona–El Prat Airport, which handles above 35 million passengers per year,[18] an extensive motorway network and a high-speed rail line with a link to France and the rest of Europe.

Chicago - Illinois Travel Guide, Tourism, Vacation
Often called the 'Windy City', Chicago is number one when it comes to culture, fine dining, shopping and commerce.
This is the home of blues and jazz, where early masters like, Louis Armstrong, Jimmie Noone, Johnny Dodds, Earl Hines, and Jelly Roll Morton, honed their skills; the city where skyscrapers were born and now pierce the sky in their dozens, where trains found their centre and airlines soon followed. Chicago is undoubtedly one of the world's greatest, dynamic cities -- confident, thriving, innovative -- and yet it still offers buckets of genuine Midwestern friendliness.
Situated on Lake Michigan, incomparable architecture erupts from its western shores. The Downtown area is known as the 'Loop' since the raised metropolitan railway (known as the 'El' or 'L') circles the central business and shopping district. Just east of it is Michigan Avenue, an upscale shopping area a few blocks from the lake.
Chicagoans are friendly, hard-working and serious sports fans. There's the Chicago Bears for football fans, Chicago Bulls for basketball followers, Chicago Blackhawks for hockey lovers and Chicago Cubs for baseball enthusiasts.
Festivals, theatre, dance, art, music, including a world-class symphony and great jazz, make Chicago a city of culture. An extensive French Impressionist collection puts Art Institute on the world map. Famous architects, such as Louis Sullivan, Mies van der Rohe and Frank Lloyd Wright and his Prairie School of Architecture thrived here. Chicago is home to the Reliance Building (now Hotel Burnham), the first steel-framed skyscraper as well as the Willis Tower (formerly known as Sears Tower), one of the world's tallest buildings.
A newer addition, Millennium Park is the setting for inspired works by Frank Gehry, Jaume Plensa and Anish Kapoor. But this is the city where innovation is rife -- Chicago gave birth to the refrigerated rail car, mail order shopping, car radio and the tv remote control. But of course, one of its most jaw dropping legacies has been the skyscraper - the nation's first was built here, a 10-story, Home Insurance Building, constructed in1884.
But this city is not all concrete and glass. Over 50 languages are spoken in this culturally and religiously diverse metropolis. Chicago's distinctive neighbours reflect its ethnic diversity. Chicago's Chinatown is vibrant, while Irish communities congregate around the Far Southwest Side, rubbing shoulders with Mexicans and Poles. Meanwhile, Indian restaurants and shops add colour to Devon Street; Lawrence Avenue has been dubbed Seoul Drive for its Korean residents, while Vietnamese, Thais, Persians, Little Italy and Greektown all add to the rich tapestry of life in the Windy City.
This is worlds away from almost a century before when during the Prohibition era, Chicago's criminal world, represented by the likes of Al Capone, Baby Face Nelson, and later Sam Giancana, practically ran the city.Today, gangster-themed tours and themed memorabilia are all that remain from this notorious past.
In a city that constantly evolves, Mark Twain hit the nail on the head when he said in the 19th century: "It is hopeless for the occasional visitor to try to keep up with Chicago. She outgrows his prophecies faster than he can make them." Over a century later, this is still very much true.

New York is a state in the Northeastern and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. New York is the 27th-most extensive, the fourth-most populous, and the seventh-most densely populated of the 50 United States. New York is bordered by New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the south and Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont to the east. The state has a maritime border with Rhode Island east of Long Island, as well as an international border with the Canadian provinces of Quebec to the north and Ontario to the west and north. The state of New York is often referred to as New York State or the State of New York to distinguish it from New York City, the state's most populous city and its economic hub.
With a Census-estimated population of nearly 8.5 million in 2014,[8] New York City is the most populous city in the United States. The city is the nucleus of the premier gateway for legal immigration to the United States[9][10][11]—the New York City Metropolitan Area, one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world.[12] New York City is also known for being the location of Ellis Island, the largest historical gateway for immigration in the history of the United States. A global power city,[13] New York City exerts a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. The home of the United Nations Headquarters,[14] New York City is an important center for international diplomacy[15] and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world,[16][17][18][19][20] as well as the world's most economically powerful city.[21][20][22] New York City alone makes up over 40 percent of the population of New York State. Two-thirds of the state's population live in the New York City Metropolitan Area, and nearly 40% live on Long Island.[23][24][25][26] Both the state and New York City were named for the 17th century Duke of York, future King James II of England. The next four most populous cities in the state are Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, and Syracuse, while the state capital is Albany.
The earliest Europeans in New York were French colonists and Jesuit missionaries who came down from settlements at Montreal for trade and proselytizing. New York was inhabited by various tribes of Algonquian and Iroquoian speaking Native Americans at the time Dutch settlers moved into the region in the early 17th century. In 1609, the region was first claimed by Henry Hudson for the Dutch. They built Fort Nassau in 1614 at the confluence of the Hudson and Mohawk rivers, where the present-day capital of Albany later developed. The Dutch soon also settled New Amsterdam and parts of the Hudson River Valley, establishing the colony of New Netherland based on trade and profitmaking. It was a multicultural community from the earliest days and the center of trade and immigration. The British annexed the colony from the Dutch in 1664. The borders of the British colony, the Province of New York, were quite similar to those of the present-day state.

View of Tokyo and Mt Fuji from the Metropolitan Government Building in Shinjuku.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building (東京都庁舎 Tōkyō-to Chōsha?), also referred to as Tokyo City Hall or Tochō (都庁) for short, houses the headquarters of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, which governs not only the 23 wards, but also the cities, towns and villages that make up Tokyo as a whole.
Located in Shinjuku, it held the title of the tallest building (by roof height) in Tokyo, at 243 meters (799 feet),[1] from 1991 to late 2006, when it surrendered its title upon the completion of Midtown Tower. The two panoramic observation decks, one in each tower on floor 45 (202 meters high), are free of charge to the public and contain gift shops and cafes.[2] They are open till 23:00 on weekdays. Use of cameras is permitted, but tripods are forbidden.
The building consists of a complex of three structures, each taking up a city block. The tallest and most prominent of the three is Tokyo Metropolitan Main building No.1, a tower 48 stories tall that splits into two sections at the 33rd floor. The building also has three levels below ground. The design of the building (which was meant to resemble a computer chip), by architect Kenzo Tange (and associates), has many symbolic touches, most notably the aforementioned split which re-creates the look of a Gothic cathedral.
The building was finished in 1991 at the expense of ¥157 billion (about US$ 1 billion) of public money. It replaced the former Tokyo City Hall at Yūrakuchō which was built in 1957 and designed by Kenzo Tange (who also designed the said successor building). The former Tokyo City Hall is now the site of the Tokyo International Forum.
The other two buildings in the complex are the eight-story Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly Building (including one underground floor) and Tokyo Metropolitan Main Building No.2, which has 37 stories including three below ground.

Our recent week in New York City was an action-packed one. We decided to set ourselves a challenge to see and do as much as we possibly could, and that gave way to this travel video guide which highlights 50 of the top attractions. In a city like New York this means we barely scratched the surface, but hopefully this video will highlight the cornucopia of possibilities that is the Big Apple.
We try our best to cover all of the top attractions including fine arts, entertainment, festivals, dining, architecture and museums as well as focusing on lesser known off the beaten path attractions to cover all forms of tourism. If you only have time to visit only one city in the United States it ought to be NYC, USA:
http://nomadicsamuel.com/photo-essays/50-things-to-do-in-new-york-city
50 Things to do in New York City Top Attractions Travel Guide:

26 Wall Street
27 Lincoln Center
28 Ride a Bicycle
29 Watch a New York Yankees baseball game at Yankee Stadium
30 MET Museum (Metropolitan Museum of Art)
31 Flatiron Building
32 Washington Square Park
33 NYU (New York University)
34 National Museum of the American Indian
35 Museum of Natural History
36 Times Square
37 MOMA (Museum of Modern Art)
38 Roosevelt Island Tramway
39 Fifth Avenue Shopping
40 Rockefeller Center
41 Empire State Building
42 Carnegie Hall
43 Central Park
44 Strawberry Fields
45 Street Food
46 Catch a Broadway Theatre Performance
47 Madison Square Garden
48 African Burial Ground
49 Columbus Circle
50 Take the Subway Metro
Most journeys begin at Penn Station or Grand Central, and if you arrive at the later you'll be wowed by the building. The Meatpacking District was once home to markets, slaughterhouses, and packaging plants, but times have changed. Today you'll find a mixture of trendy restaurants, clubs and boutiques. The Village used to be a bohemian neighborhood that drew artists and musicians, but today you're more likely to find upper middle class families living here. Completed in 1883, Brooklyn Bridge is one of the oldest suspension bridges in the United States. Williamsburg has become popular given its lower rent prices. University students and young professionals have been flocking to this part of town.
You can walk along the riverfront for a great view of the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges and the Manhattan skyline. During the summer months, Bryant Park also becomes a popular hangout spot people looking to relax and even work on their tans. The Staten Island Ferry is free of charge and this makes it really popular with visitors who want to catch a glimpse of the Statue of Liberty from a distance. Battery Park is located on the southern tip of Manhattan. Having both lived in South Korea, we were thrilled to come across Manhattan's own Little Korea. Coney Island is all about good old fashioned fun. You can ride roller coasters, stroll down the boardwalk, enjoy some beach time, and then head over the Nathan's Famous hot dogs. The Cloisters will make you feel like you've travelled over to Europe. Central Park is massive and there are so many places to visit within its boundaries. We managed to visit Belvedere Castle, the Great Lawn, Shakespeare Garden, The Ramble, The Jackie Onassis Reservoir, the Alice in Wonderland Statue, and we still left feeling like we barely scratched the surface. Strawberry Fields is a section of Central Park dedicated to the memory of John Lennon.
And that concludes a look at our very busy week in New York City. I'm still shocked we managed to cover so many attractions, but the great thing about this city is that distances aren't very long and there's always something really cool worth checking out around each corner. Have you been to New York? What are your favorite things about this city? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.
This is part of our Travel in the United State of America series. We're making a series of videos showcasing American culture, American arts, American foods, American cuisine, American religion and American people.

Antwerp, Belgium HD, Antwerp, Belgium Tourism,Antwerp Travel
Antwerp is a city and municipality in Belgium and the capital of the Antwerp province of Belgium. Antwerp's population is 512,000 (as of 1 January 2013), making it the second most populous city in Belgium, after the metropolis Brussels, which has around 1.2 million inhabitants. Antwerp's total area is 204.51 km2 (78.96 sq mi), giving a population density of 2,308 inhabitants per km². The metropolitan area, including the outer commuter zone, covers an area of 1,449 km2 (559 sq mi) with a total of 1,190,769 inhabitants as of 1 January 2008. The French name of Antwerp is Anvers [ɑ̃vɛʁ(s)]; it may be found written this way on signposts in French-speaking regions of Belgium and in French-language publications.
Antwerp is located on the right (eastern) bank of the river Scheldt, which is linked to the North Sea by the Westerschelde estuary. The city has one of the largest seaports in Europe. Antwerp has long been an important city in the Low Countries, both economically and culturally, especially before the Spanish Fury (1576) in the period of the Dutch Revolt. The inhabitants of Antwerp are locally nicknamed Sinjoren, after the Spanish honorific señor or French seigneur, "lord". It refers to the leading Spanish noblemen who ruled the city during the 17th century.
Buildings, landmarks and museums
==============================
In the 16th century, Antwerp was noted for the wealth of its citizens ("Antwerpia nummis"); the houses of these wealthy merchants and manufacturers have been preserved throughout the city. However fire has destroyed several old buildings, such as the house of the Hanseatic League on the northern quays in 1891. The city also suffered considerable war damage by V-bombs, and in recent years other noteworthy buildings were demolished for new developments.
Antwerp Zoo was founded in 1843, and is home to more than 6,000 animals (about 769 species). One of the oldest zoos in the world, it is renowned for its high level of research and conservation.
Central Station is a railway station designed by Louis Delacenserie that was completed in 1905. It has two monumental neo-baroque façades, a large metal and glass dome (60m/197 ft) and a gilt and marble interior
Cathedral of Our Lady. This church was begun in the 14th century and finished in 1518. The church has four works by Rubens, viz. "The Descent from the Cross", "The Elevation of the Cross", "The Resurrection of Christ" and "The Assumption"
St. James' Church, is more ornate than the cathedral. It contains the tomb of Rubens
The Church of St. Paul has a beautiful baroque interior. It is a few hundred yards north of the Grote Markt
Museum Vleeshuis (Butchers' Hall) is a fine Gothic brick-built building sited a short distance to the North-West of the Grote Markt. Originally used as a home for the Butchers Guild these days it holds a musical instrument collection (including some original Ruckers harpsichords) and is home to occasional concerts.
Plantin-Moretus Museum preserves the house of the printer Christoffel Plantijn and his successor Jan Moretus
The Saint-Boniface Church is an Anglican church and headseat of the archdeanery North-West Europe.
Boerentoren (Farmers' Tower) or KBC Tower, a 26-storey building built in 1932, is the oldest skyscraper in Europe
Royal Museum of Fine Arts, close to the southern quays, has a collection of old masters (Rubens, Van Dyck, Titian) and the leading Dutch masters.
Rubenshuis is the former home and studio of Peter Paul Rubens (1577--1640) in Antwerp. It is now a museum.
Exchange or Bourse. The current building was built in 1872.
Law Courts, designed by the Richard Rogers Partnership, Arup and VK Studio, and opened by King Albert in April 2006. This building is the antithesis of the heavy, dark court building designed by Joseph Poelaert that dominates the skyline of Brussels. The courtrooms sit on top of six fingers that radiate from an airy central hall, and are surmounted by spires which provide north light and resemble oast houses or the sails of barges on the nearby River Scheldt. It is built on the site of the old Zuid ("South") station, at the end of a magnificent 1.5 kilometres (1 mile) perspective at the southern end of Amerikalei. The road neatly disappears into an underpass under oval Bolivarplaats to join the motorway ring. This leaves peaceful surface access by foot, bicycle or tram (route 12). The building's highest 'sail' is 51 m (167.32 ft) high, has a floor area of 77,000 m2 (828,821.10 sq ft), and cost €130 million.

In 2012 Warsaw was ranked as the 32nd most liveable city in the world by the Economist Intelligence Unit.[6] It was also ranked as one of the most liveable cities in Central and Eastern Europe. Today Warsaw is considered an Alpha– global city, a major international tourist destination and a significant cultural, political and economic hub.[7][8][9] Warsaw's economy, by a wide variety of industries, is characterised by FMCG manufacturing, metal processing, steel and electronic manufacturing and food processing. The city is a significant centre of research and development, BPO, ITO, as well as Polish media industry. The Warsaw Stock Exchange is one of the largest and most important in Central Europe. Frontex, the European Union agency for external border security, is headquartered in Warsaw. Unusually for a European city, Warsaw has a prominent skyline with many skyscrapers and high-rise buildings in the city center. Warsaw is one of only a few cities in the European Union that have such a skyline, together with Frankfurt, London and Paris.
The first historical reference to Warsaw dates back to the year 1313, when initially Kraków served as the Polish capital city. Due to its central location between the Commonwealth's capitals of Kraków and Vilnius, Warsaw became the capital of the Commonwealth and the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland when King Sigismund III Vasa moved his court from Kraków to Warsaw in 1596.[10] After the Third Partition of Poland in 1795, Warsaw was incorporated into the Kingdom of Prussia. In 1806 during the Napoleonic Wars, the city became the official capital of the Grand Duchy of Warsaw, a puppet state of the First French Empire created by Napoleon Bonaparte. With accordance to the decision of the Congress of Vienna, Warsaw in 1815 was annexed by the Russian Empire and became part of the "Congress Kingdom". Only in 1918 it regained independence from the foreign rule and emerged as a new capital of the independent Republic of Poland. Along with the German invasion in 1939, the massacre of the Jewish population and deportations to concentration camps led to the uprising in the Warsaw ghetto in 1943 and to a major and devastating Warsaw Uprising between August and October 1944. For this Warsaw gained the title of the "phoenix city" because it has survived so many wars, conflicts and invasions throughout its long history. Most notably, the city had to be painstakingly rebuilt after the extensive damage it suffered in World War II, during which 85% of its buildings were destroyed.[11][12] On 9 November 1940 the city was awarded Poland's highest military decoration for heroism, the Virtuti Militari, during the Siege of Warsaw (1939).[13][14]
The city is the seat of a Roman Catholic archdiocese (left bank) and diocese (right bank of the Vistula), and possesses various universities, most notably the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Warsaw University, an opera house, theatres, museums, libraries and monuments. The historic city centre of Warsaw with its picturesque Old Town in 1980 was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Other main architectural attractions include the Castle Square with the Royal Castle and the iconic King Sigismund's Column, St. John's Cathedral, Market Square, palaces, churches and mansions all displaying a richness of colour and architectural detail. Buildings are representatives of nearly every European architectural style and historical period. Warsaw has wonderful examples of architecture from the gothic, renaissance, baroque and neoclassical periods and around a quarter of the city is filled with grand parks and royal gardens.

Its population is estimated at 1.740 million residents within a greater metropolitan area of 2.666 million residents, which makes Warsaw the 9th most populous capital city in the European Union.[2][3][4] The city limits cover 516.9 square kilometres (199.6 sq mi), while the metropolitan area covers 6,100.43 square kilometres (2,355.39 sq mi).[5]

Seoul is one of the most dynamic cities in the world. I've been privileged enough to have lived in and around the Seoul metropolitan area for several years as an English teacher. It's a city that is near and dear to my heart and one which I strongly encourage you to visit. Below is my things to do in Seoul travel guide featuring all of the top attractions worth visiting:
1) Insadong is the cultural HUB of Seoul. It's an area that is equally as popular with locals as it is with tourists. Whether you're shopping for Korean souvenirs, people watching or wanting to grab some Korean street food, you'll find it all here.
2) Do fancy cats? For cat lovers (and the cats living there) a cat cafe is paradise. With an opportunity to interact with cats and feed them treats, you'll be sure to make a few feline friends in just one sitting. The deal with these cat cafes is that you have to purchase a prepaid drink and/or snack (at a price higher than a normal cafe) for the opportunity to pet and play with kitties. Our favorite cat cafe was located in Hongdae.
3) In the winter Korea is frigid in a way few from abroad might expect. To warm up head to a proper Korean Tea House where you'll be served a wonderful aromatic fruity Korean tea accompanied by rice cake snacks. To enjoy like a local find a spot with Ondol - heated floors. If you're looking for a recommendation, try the ginger tea!
4) For the best view in Seoul consider hiking up Mount Namsan to visit Seoul Tower. Best done in the spring or fall - given the moderate temperatures - this moderately challenging walk will take less than an hour to complete. We picked late fall to go when it was cooler outside and leaves were changing colors.
5) No trip to Seoul would be complete without visiting the oldest market in the city - Namdaemun market. Many come here to shop but I'm all about coming for Korean street food. With a plethora of stalls and no shortage of options it's best to arrive with an empty stomach. If you're having a hard time choosing I recommend Hotteok and Tteokbokki.
6) As if visiting a cat cafe wasn't enough there are also dog cafes in Seoul! Unlike the cat cafes, which are a bit more mellow, prepare for a high energy kind of environment in the dog cafe where the dogs are more active than the docile cats.
7) For the best walk in Seoul head down to the Cheonggyecheon stream in the heart of the city. Equally as fascinating during the summer as it is by winter, it takes on a totally different personality as the seasons change. If you're lucky you'll spot a traditional Korean performance or hear Korean music playing.
8) There are numerous palaces to consider visiting in Seoul but none is more impressive than Gyeongbokgung. With admission being only 3000 KRW it's a cheap and fun landmark to visit. Be sure to stick around for the changing of guard ceremony.
서울 은 세계에서 가장 역동적 인 도시 중 하나입니다. 나는 영어 교사로서 몇 년 동안 수도권 과 주변 살았던 만큼 권한이 있었습니다. 이 근처에 그리고 친애하는 나의 마음과 강력 방문해 보시기 바랍니다 하나 인 도시입니다 . 다음은 방문 할 가치가유명한 관광 명소 를 모두 갖춘 서울 여행 가이드 에서 할 내 물건 은 :
1) 인사동 은 서울 의 문화 중심지입니다. 그것은 관광객 과 같이 지역 주민 과 똑같이 인기있는 영역 입니다. 당신이 한국의 기념품 쇼핑을 하든, 보고 또는 한국의 일부 거리 음식 을 잡고 싶은 사람들은 , 당신은 모두 여기에 찾을 수 있습니다.
2) 공상 고양이 하십니까? 고양이 애호가 (그리고 거기에 사는 고양이 )에 대한 고양이 카페 낙원입니다. 고양이 와 상호 작용하고 그들에게 간식 을 먹일 수있는 기회 와 함께, 당신은 하나 에 앉아 몇 고양이 친구를 만들 해야 합니다 . 이 고양이 카페 거래는 당신이 애완 동물과 고양이 한테는 놀 수있는 기회를 ( 높은 일반 카페 보다 가격 )선불 음료 및 / 또는 간식 을 구입 해야한다는 것입니다 . 우리가 좋아하는 고양이 카페 는 홍대 에 위치했다.

New York is the most populous city in the United States and the center of the New York Metropolitan Area, one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world.
The most important places to visit in New York are: Brooklyn Bridge (built in 1883, it is one of the oldest suspension bridges in America and continues to inspire the people of New York City), Wall Street (the bull here makes everyone happy. See where billions are won or lost in seconds), Central Park (one of the world's greatest urban parks. Get involved in an outdoor activity or watch New Yorkers go about their exercise routines), Empire State Building (an American icon, which was built remarkably during the Great Depression. Ride to the top for unmatched city views), Times Square (best experienced at night. First time visitors are simply in awe amidst the bright neon lights), Statue of Liberty (this is one landmark you must visit. The ultimate symbol of New York City).
If you want to save time and money, the most important New York travel tip is to compare prices before booking a hotel room or a flight. You can do this for free on http://bookinghunter.com, a site that searches through hundreds of other travel websites in real time for the best travel deals available.

Montreal, Downtown and Vieux-Montreal, Canada
http://www.myvideomedia.de
English see below
[dt.] Montréal ist die zweitgrößte Stadt Kanadas und die zweitgrößte französisch sprechende Stadt der Welt. Im ihrem Großraum leben 3,6 Millionen Menschen. 1600 km vom Atlantik entfernt ist sie die bedeutendste Hafenstadt im Osten Kanadas. Bis 1760 war die Stadt in französischem Besitz. Mit dem Frieden von Paris wurde sie wie ganz Kanada an die Briten abgetreten. Die Statue von Lord Nelson vor dem Rathaus zeugt davon.
Montréal ist durch und durch von französischen Kultur geprägt. Vor allem in „Vieux-Montréal" der Altstadt am Hafen, in den Kneipen und in der Musik spürt man den Geist des Mutterlandes, aus dem einst die Siedler kamen. Hier wird französisch gesprochen, aber auch Joual, den eigenständig fortentwickelten Dialekt der Provinz Québec mit amerikanischen Einflüssen. Engen Gassen mit teilweise dreihundert Jahre alten Häusern, vermitteln das Gefühl, man sei in der französischen Provinz. Die Kutschen, denen man hier auf Schritt und Tritt begegnet, geben diesem Eindruck noch zusätzlich einen Hauch von Vergangenheit.
Aber es gibt auch noch andere Fortbewegungsmittel. Ein Familienausflug der etwas anderen Art mit dem Segway.
Vom Passagierhafen aus ist die beeindruckende Markthalle des Marché Bonsecours gut zu sehen. Ursprünglich war sie Rathaus und Parlamentssitz, später Konzertsaal. Heute werden in ihrem Inneren bevorzugt Kunstgegenstände und Möbel angeboten.
Zurück in „Vieux-Montréal" bewundern wir die alten Zunftzeichen und lassen die Atmosphäre der Altstadt auf uns einwirken.
Der Place d'Armes, wo einst Truppenparaden stattfanden, ist der Mittelpunkt des alten Bankenviertels und ein beliebter Treffpunkt für die einheimische Bevölkerung und Touristen.
Nicht weniger sehenswert ist die in etwas kleinerem Maßstab 1894 dem römischen Petersdom in Rom nach empfundene Kathedrale Marie-Reine-du-Monde.
Von hier aus wurde der Bau der Montrealer Untergrundbahn begonnen. Ähnlich wie in Toronto sind die Hochhäuser der Stadt durch U-Bahn und Einkaufspassagen mittels „Path" verbunden.
Die ehemalige Union Station dient heute als Veranstaltungshalle und Konzertsaal. Zwischen den Hochhäusern der Banken und Consulting-Unternehmen steht eine Skulptur des britischen Bildhauers Henry Moore.
******** [en.] A walk through downtown Montreal and Vieux Montreal
Montreal is the second largest city in Canada and the second largest French speaking city in the world. Its metropolitan area is home for 3.6 million people. 1600 km away from the Atlantic Ocean, it is the most important port city in eastern Canada. Until 1760 the town was in French possession. With the Treaty of Paris, Montreal like whole Canada, was handed over to the British. The statue of Lord Nelson in front of the Town Hall is the evidence of it.
Montréal is marked through and through by French culture. Especially in the old town -Vieux-Montreal - at the harbor, in the pubs and in the music, you feel the spirit of the mother country, which once came from the settlers. Here one speaks French but you also hear Joual, the dialect of the province Quebec with American influences. Narrow streets with some three hundred years old houses convey the feeling that one is in the French province. The horse-drawn carriages that are encountered here at every turn give this impression even a further touch of the past.
There are other means of transportation, like a family day out of a different kind with the Segway.
The passenger port is a good place to see the impressive market hall of the Marché Bonsecours. Originally it was City Hall and Parliament seat, later it became concert hall. Today, preferentially art objects and furniture were offered inside.
Back in Vieux-Montreal we admire the old guild signs and let the atmosphere of the old town effect on us.
The Place d'Armes, where once the military parades took place, the centre of the old banking area and a popular meeting place is for locals and tourists.
Worth seeing is the cathedral Marie-Reine-du-Monde. Built in 1894, it is a scale model of Saint Peter's Basilica in Rome.
In this area, the construction of the underground of Montreal was started. Similarly to Toronto, the skyscrapers are connected to the town by underground and shopping arcades by means of "Path".
Today, the former Union Station serves as a meeting and concert hall. Between the skyscrapers of the banks and consulting firms you see a sculpture of the British sculptor Henry Moore.

Perth is the capital city of Western Australia and is the most isolated capital city of over 1,000,000 people in the world.
Perth sprawls along a flat coastal plain, centred along the Swan River and bounded by the Darling Scarp to the east and the Indian Ocean coastline in the west. Perth has a population of around 1.6 million (2009), making it the fourth largest city in Australia. The many uncrowded beaches along the Perth coastline define the lifestyle: Perth is laid-back, quiet and safe.
See in Perth, Western Australia
=====================
There is plenty to see in the city centre within wandering distance or on a free CAT bus. Hidden among the sprawl of the surrounding and metropolitan area are a few worthwhile attractions usually less than an hour away by car, or a bit longer on public transport.
Outside of the metropolitan area are some unspoilt national parks, unpopulated coastline and other interesting locations.
Kangaroos
-------------------
There is a designated area in the zoo for kangaroos where they can wander on visitors' paths and the animals are used to people so you can see them very close.
To see semi-wild kangaroos visit the Pinnaroo Valley Memorial Park (a cemetery, but not European style) [10] - it's a walking distance from Whitfords Transperth Train/Metro Station - just cross the highway, the highway exit and look for the entrance on the left. As there is plenty of space for them you may see them not only eating but also hopping.
Other sports Other professional sports have a presence in Perth:
Perth Glory –
Western Warriors –
Western Force – Rugby union team in the Super 15, involving teams from Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. Season runs from February to late May. Western Force play at NIB Stadium.
Perth Wildcats – Play in the National Basketball League.
Perth Heat - Play in the Australian Baseball League
Do in Perth, Western Australia
======================
Swim. Perth boasts some of the country's best beaches, which are ideal for swimming during the warmer months. Sunscreen is essential and insect repellent may come in handy during the evening. As the beaches are on the open ocean it is strongly advised that you only 'swim between the flags' at patrolled beaches. Probably the easiest beach to get to by public transport is Scarborough beach, which can be accessed by catching the Clarkson line from platform 1 at either Perth Underground or Esplanade stations, getting off at Glendalough station before catching the 400 bus. Alternatively, you can catch the 400 from the Wellington St bus station which is located down the far end of the central station - from any of its platforms, head west to the concourse, turn left and then head down the ramp. Cottesloe Beach, one of Perth's most famous, and a favourite among locals and tourists alike, it even easier to access by public transport. Take the Fremantle line to Cottesloe Station, exit the platform at the Perth end, and head west down Forrest Street for about 10 min.

Perth is the capital city of Western Australia and is the most isolated capital city of over 1,000,000 people in the world.
Perth sprawls along a flat coastal plain, centred along the Swan River and bounded by the Darling Scarp to the east and the Indian Ocean coastline in the west. Perth has a population of around 1.6 million (2009), making it the fourth largest city in Australia. The many uncrowded beaches along the Perth coastline define the lifestyle: Perth is laid-back, quiet and safe.
See in Perth, Western Australia
=====================
There is plenty to see in the city centre within wandering distance or on a free CAT bus. Hidden among the sprawl of the surrounding and metropolitan area are a few worthwhile attractions usually less than an hour away by car, or a bit longer on public transport.
Outside of the metropolitan area are some unspoilt national parks, unpopulated coastline and other interesting locations.
Kangaroos
-------------------
There is a designated area in the zoo for kangaroos where they can wander on visitors' paths and the animals are used to people so you can see them very close.
To see semi-wild kangaroos visit the Pinnaroo Valley Memorial Park (a cemetery, but not European style) [10] - it's a walking distance from Whitfords Transperth Train/Metro Station - just cross the highway, the highway exit and look for the entrance on the left. As there is plenty of space for them you may see them not only eating but also hopping.

======================
Swim. Perth boasts some of the country's best beaches, which are ideal for swimming during the warmer months. Sunscreen is essential and insect repellent may come in handy during the evening. As the beaches are on the open ocean it is strongly advised that you only 'swim between the flags' at patrolled beaches. Probably the easiest beach to get to by public transport is Scarborough beach, which can be accessed by catching the Clarkson line from platform 1 at either Perth Underground or Esplanade stations, getting off at Glendalough station before catching the 400 bus. Alternatively, you can catch the 400 from the Wellington St bus station which is located down the far end of the central station - from any of its platforms, head west to the concourse, turn left and then head down the ramp. Cottesloe Beach, one of Perth's most famous, and a favourite among locals and tourists alike, it even easier to access by public transport. Take the Fremantle line to Cottesloe Station, exit the platform at the Perth end, and head west down Forrest Street for about 10 min. Or you can take bus 102 from Williams street or Esplanade station and it has a stop right by the Cottesloe beach. There is a shady grassed area as well as sand, and the beach is patrolled.
