The beauty of 'Nice'-The Castle Mountain Château.

By Unknown -
The Castle Mountain Château. 

The Old Nice is enclosed by the castle mountain. On the 100-meter hill used to be situated the fortress and cathedral. When Nice belonged to Duchy of Savoy, Louis XIV managed to occupy the city. Then in 1706 by his order the fortress was blown up. This is the reason, why if you get to the Chateau, you will see not a medieval castle, but just some carcass of the castle wall. Though, it's worth getting to the mountain for two reasons: first – you'd enjoy the fantastic view not only on the Old Nice, but on the whole Promenade des Anglais. From the Chateau it's convenient to watch the planes taking off and landing nearby at the airport. And the second – there you'd be close to nature as never before.

The whole territory, actually, is an enormous garden with exotic plants, huge palms, cactuses, burs and the magnificent waterfall in the center. On the top of the south mountain takes place the Navy Museum, where one can look at the models of ships and navigation instruments. If you have enough time, you should go to the Castle Mountain twice – in the morning and in the evening. At daytime you'll see the amazing view on the city and the sea, and at night the endless line of lights will break your heart. The best time for enjoying the beauty of Promenade des Anglais is night. A great number of street lamps, hotel lamps and the beach with its floodlight will give an unforgettable romantic feeling.

fifa must challenge any potential corruption cancer

By Unknown -
The news that two FIFA executive committee members allegedly considered selling their votes for the 2018 and 2022 World Cup election came as a surprise to many and, if proven true, will be highly corrosive for the game in general. The game of football generates passion around the world like no other sport and its reputation is rightly guarded by those who are in charge. FIFA president Sepp Blatter's concern over the severity of such accusations was evident by his release of an open letter to the world's media, where he sought to quell anxiety over the legitimacy of the current voting process. It is a crucial time for world football’s governing body, with the announcement of the winning bid for the 2018 and 2022 World Cup scheduled for 2 December. Consequently the sport will be keen to show that it is not subject to the same sort of corruption that has blighted other areas of sporting competition.
