anyone stood out from the rest at the shows in paris then it was. models with the attitude strutting their stuff and it actually had to tell next to the paris opera. designer ronald banda kemp is taking part in the paris or could still shows for the third time. he chooses his models very carefully. this is for me for me it's very important that the women are very strong i really like to him what newton type of woman because they can be very sexy or maybe even totally naked but they still emanate power the power of. his flamboyant creation essentially serve to underline individual personalities. all these outfits are unique creations fast and. fullest because they're made of recycled materials. for suki i always try to only use materials that already exist so i collect them i
buy from people who buy of old stock from the big couture houses who no longer need the fabric. from the course go to a. good chill with a conscience has become ronald then they came straight months. needed to use the bits and pieces of fabric sort other people didn't want to the beginning needed to do that just because from the sheer economics but i think what he's doing now is good that's trying to come is a static and a way in the gunsmoke is the entire fashion industry is moving in the wrong direction and i want to set a positive example of how things could be done that you can use what's already there to produce something very exciting comes of being smart and fun. rather than take him studio is not exactly close to any of the big sent his of international fashion. after working for big name brands like celine and discard he decided to launch his own label that was in twenty fourteen since then he's lived and worked
in amsterdam if i'm sure in. four months and i like working from amsterdam because there i'm not surrounded by all these fashion experts who want to give me advice tell me what to do i don't feel the competition there either and i can focus on what i believe and. plays last show in january of this year some of these other outfits was sewn together by refugees that fled to the netherlands. the city from this is so for the women this is like another world they have a very tough when you hear their stories it's really very very difficult moment there so it was something really positive to keep getting they worked with great love and dedication and we then used the things. made him so it was a win win situation win win situations are. his latest collection is also good for a surprise some of the outfits this time i'm
a part of the paper. you could really change people's minds and i think you story good at that news story just for so much as on clothes you know what he's doing and he doesn't really care what everybody else is doing or thinking he just is very very. his own man has stayed true a bit of a pioneer to rebel references obviously. loves fashion you know and that's what we're here for. but that could be cyclical and. lotion was just silly for sure because i'm lazy. with his unusual approach the fashion maverick from the netherlands has made it on to the official cause of katrina can and and that was his goal all along. with couture this is. the ultimate in fashion and that's where i want to be i want
to showcase my designs alongside chanel and valentino because these outfits are really very high quality and i also want to show that even as a small designer you can make. this or i know. i'm often called to psyche different collection has specially brought a little extra fled to the paris fashion world prices the stuff up to chile. one of the best places to see how the vikings lived over a thousand years ago is the head of blue settlement and the down of x. fortress in northern germany between the eighth and the eleven centuries they were centers of trade networks between northern and western europe now both sites for recently listed by unesco and they invite in visitors to experience what life was like back then. vikings life was not for the faint hearted the men hunted for food with bows and arrows.
hand-made clothes and cloth kept them warm during the cold winters. built wooden ships with the simplest of to. the viking settlement of painted blue once numbered among the foremost early medieval trading centers in northern europe. died sure visitors how the vikings went about their daily lives over a thousand years ago. were and lived near it was a life in and with nature but had an incredibly sharp power of observation they were very well acquainted with the materials around them and knew how to use them to their advantage to build housing ships and wagons and make rope. they made a great many things that we could hardly even imagine today we were on the fourth or increment. page of who lives in. northern germany.
seven facts two roof wooden houses have been faithfully reconstructed. the settlement was built at the end of the shoreline an inlet on the baltic sea. it was a strategic location for trading precious metals weapons and pelt today it's a treasure trove found piano gests. behind me the eyes here of a viking age settlement in the ninth tenth and eleventh centuries well the first glance it doesn't look like much because it's just a green meadow but as usual in archaeology the real treasures lie underground and here behind us there isn't a square centimeter that doesn't contain archaeological finds. and we always say hey that was archaeologically contaminated. in the nearby viking museum visitors can inspect many of the original artifacts. it's one of chalets because shine is
the most popular museum. over one hundred thousand people come and usually in search of the real vikings. the museum shows the viking is highly developed from design still the smiths art for example all the pill jewelry things that often surprise visits is. a fortune for the profession but of unlike the classic image of the vikings as warriors what i find after such an intense examination here is that above all they were internationally trading europeans even somewhat cosmopolitan. to have to. be in the hands craft with very highly developed and that indicates they were not just worry is definitely a culture i'd say yeah. come on. the done of a canny hate abou is another significant archeological site from the viking age. it consists of earthworks walls and trenches which in some thirty plummeted is.
the fortifications date back some one thousand years they can best be explored by bicycle. and the down a vehicle was built to protect the jutland peninsula against invaders. the donovan was the longest lasting border of the middle ages and the best preserved in its various phases as we see here the best waldemar zwolle for example was a very innovative construction for the time. they had already gone to build with bricks in the twelfth century with. the site gives us a unique insight into how the vikings lived through everything that's an important aspect is that the tens of thousands of visitors that we get each year are well known. you know with a different awareness rians you get this knowing that this is an archeological monumental thing with global significance from global. change to be proof that the
vikings were not just war against but also shrewd strangers and people who lived in harmony with nature. singing has been scientifically proven to lift your mood and singing together as a group has been booming for years so in an effort to boost the spirits of moody berliners to musical organizers put together an evening of public singing and it proved to be a great success. here the audience is the star five hundred people belting out a pop classic. the evening at an open air face and it is called sing sing. this song is a lead by chairman i'm not sousa and a company back into pop it's on piano. hot.
it's fun and makes me happy you can let your hair down. i need motivation if i want to hear my own voice not just speaking but singing took. what i see it's always i sing at home but otherwise never in public. taking away people's shyness when they sing caesar and puppets have been doing it for going on two years now. and they've had a lot of success no one here can tell if he's singing well or not so everyone does whether it's belting out a popular refrain from austrian bad one toe. or a club hit by a swedish house mafia. it . was.
he's a mom howard has one five hundred people sing the same song it's a totally different experience than any other because you're communicating with lots of people but not verbal by. and you don't have to give each other any science and everyone knows the song reads the lyrics sings the same thing at the same time there's so much energy in a. song as an expression of common culture. whether in a church choir. at st festivals like carnival. with a with charity and control. or pulling out all the stops no matter how you do it's all types of singing have one thing in common studies show the activity makes you happy and healthy.
and unlike lincoln stein from berlin's institute for music therapy views singing as a therapeutic measure. of respect each of the many of the aspects that singing awakens could also be awakened by joking at the neuron a physiological level is the same things are happening. but one thing is special about singing when you do it for longer periods after about twenty minutes you begin to produce moxy talks in also called the bonding hormone you don't get that from jogging you get it from nursing and from sex and from sex. no wonder so many people love to sing. but not many of us today have the time or chance to sing in regular groups so quiet
so that's what single sing provides an opportunity to lift up your voice in song with hundreds of like minded people. the event is always booked out weeks in advance. it's a poor conspirator in course but i used to sing a lot of gospel choirs and spent a lot of time in churches where we sang a lot of pop music but often my worldview changed and i just wasn't able to get behind it anymore i kept looking for something that would give me that experience just without the religious aspect and i'm starting to think that with single acing i found that before. i was. full most of the people here it wasn't about how they sang but about being process of the experience.

lasting tributes the venetian museum dedicated to casanova. and world heritage to viking settlements in northern germany. we kick off today show in the british capital many tourists come to london wanting to see all the main attractions like buckingham palace tile bridge and the houses of parliament but there's a whole other side to london that's usually just known to the locals today we want to help you get to know a more personal side of the city so here is a real london are showing us what he thinks are the best bits of the capital. london vibrant metropolis. reagents canal launches its way north of central london but it's surprising a tranquil canal runs almost parallel to the river thames.
london author bill nash is interested in the more secluded parts of his hometown. in the past ten years. and in particular since the london olympics a lot of the canals around london of being revitalized cleaned up. life is being reintroduced and that's a lot of people living on house boats nash describes the lesser known aspects of the city in his book secret london. now daytrippers cruise along regent's canal from little venice to camden. but there are plans to use the canal for transporting freight house in the past. along the banks people can shop for books on a house but all visit the house the values tracing. one of the dreams is devoted to the patterns of the seeds of telstra in the london underground.
so the gallery is based in king's cross london which is undergoing this amazing transformation over the past few years and it's now a really exciting area full of schools galleries and really interesting landscapes . to the south in soho once the horns of many artists and filmmakers. today so who is mainly home to status and flare ups. even so national's a few hidden spots see. secret t.v. remains about the palm. beach home first that typical british crew. served with jam. three. and. three nights to to drink tea from china you know from rather than from sort of paper or plastic roll or whatever but this is not like a proper a proper cup of tea rotha and
a mug of tea. comes in pathogen and provides an alternative to shopping in the major department stores. small shops often items like vantage close and silver. much of the business here is done through mail order. who's both try anything bar relight sheet. camden's much except the museum is not far from the busy euston station another location. this keeps the secrets of all the magicians in the u.k. . this before my own has a tradition on display people. talking hand. holds. even the royal family is interested in.
trolls wrote the magic circle to ask if he could become a member. they wrote back and said yes you may bring it to pass the test post exam so we know she's from try she came down and performed the strip which you know the cups on the ball into the cups and past and there's no no no remember the magic circle now she lives in brixton district in south london. and looking after he was the british capitals first market street to be linked with electricity many people in breaks in the sun from african and caribbean immigrants . coming. there's a lot of work being done here and it sort of generates lively even if it's in may i don't so this company. it's not the richest
but it's. but it is more. friendly and metropolitan. it's a victorian pounding cannot can well. munch is especially fond of the folks in it dates back to eighty ninety eight. and this program is one of the few in london where they still have snags and there's three of them that back right. they could come in here with anyone you liked and just place the door behind you. perfect place to round off an evening in one of europe's. capitals. now in many languages the name casanova is part of common everyday speech often synonymous with womanizer the man responsible for it. was an italian philosopher
and writer from venice his autobiography is considered one of the most authentic sources of the customs and norms of european social life during the eighteenth century a museum in venice gives visitors a closer look at the story behind the name. a trip back in time to a more lavish era many say the city of lovers on the adriatic is the most beautiful in the world but not everyone knows that venice is also the birthplace of one of the most famous lovers of all time jack of all casanova. he was born in this alley in seven hundred twenty five. a small marble plaque commemorates one of the city's most colorful sons. and this employees think a lot of tourists take selfies in front of the plaque on the appropriate thing so that's why i think venice should have more crossing over than this because people
are curious about him and want to know more on the borders it doesn't want that i guess that the subeditor so the north. the palette so papa found in the come out at geo district this is where the businessman found a space where the casanova museum which he financed himself. six rooms allowed visitors to explore who casanova really was more than just an eighteenth century playboy. because on all the more formal casanova was much more a great writer a philosopher and musician alchemy list and even a spy this thought when i read a spear a. multimedia technologies introduced the famous figure beginning with his youth in venice and continuing up to his death in seven hundred ninety eight casanova was a free spirit and didn't venture his restlessness pushed him to travel throughout europe where he met important people of his day like french philosopher and russian
empress catherine the great. casanova's twelve volume memoir provides plenty of interesting insights into eighteenth century life but the venetian is mostly famous for his a rhotic escapades. they've inspired countless films and have helped turn casanova into a legend. a smartphone app who guides visitors outside the museum in the footsteps of the famous lover. casanova's mother was an actress this small courtyard is where he grew up in his grandmother's house later he said to have lived with his father by the grand canal in the pots of money piano. next the out brings visitors to the piazza san mateo to the famous cafe florian this is where venetian high society met during casanova's lifetime. we haven't got the space
so the other party because it overcame her often especially during the carnival they were also cited he sat in one of our aims and flirted with women like her but he was one of venice has great characters and a highly refined man. on the other side of the gaza border. but casanova also had enemies in seven hundred fifty five he was arrested by the inquisition and thrown into a dungeon. here in the doge's palace and a small cell with a lead roof the master of seduction was imprisoned for a year before managing to escape. he would later write a book about his flight over the rooftops it became a european bestseller and brought him plenty of adulation. so long. now he has stayed here across this canal. the story of
his flight definitely helped cassanova make himself more interesting to many european aristocrats at the time. of course you shouldn't take everything in casanova's memoirs at face value but the hunt for clues is exciting and good. scans of the world's greatest lover a chance to discover things different side of venice. we're going on another hunt for historical clues now in the german danish border you can get an accurate picture of how the vikings lived over one thousand years ago at the head of blue settlement and the don of of fortress back in the eighth to eleven century these sites were at the center of the trade networks between northern and western europe today seven viking houses and the landing bridge invite visitors to experience what life was like back then. viking's life was
not for the fainthearted the men hunted for food with bows and arrows. and made clothes and cloth kept them warm during the cold winters. built wooden ships with the simplest of. the viking settlement of painted blue once numbered among the foremost in the medieval trading centers in northern europe. died should visitors how the vikings went about their daily lives over a thousand years ago. it was a life in and with nature but had an incredibly sharp power of observation they were very well acquainted with the materials around them and knew how to use them to their advantage to build housing ships and wagons and make rope. they made a great many things that we could hardly even imagine today to be on their fortune
current. page of who lives in a college dine in northern germany. seven facts two roof wooden houses have been faithfully reconstructed. the settlement was built at the end of the shoreline an inlet on the baltic sea. it was a strategic location for trading precious metals weapons and pelt today it's a treasure trove of jests. behind me the eyes heat of a viking age settlement in the ninth tenth and eleventh centuries the first glance it doesn't look like much because it's just a green meadow but issues in archaeology the real treasures lie underground and here behind us there isn't a square centimeter that doesn't contain archaeological finds. and we always say hey that was archaeologically contaminated. in the nearby viking museum visitors
can inspect many of the original artifacts. it's one of chalets because shine is the most popular museum. over one hundred thousand people come and usually in search of the real vikings. the museum shows the vikings highly developed drugs and still the smiths are not for example or the pill jewelry things that often surprise visit is. a present for you unlike the classic image of the vikings as warriors what i find after such an intense examination here is that above all they were internationally trading europeans even somewhat cosmopolitan and. many of the have to. be in the hands craft with very highly developed and that indicates they were not just warring is definitely a culture they are quick to acquire come on. down the very near haditha who is
another significant archeological site from the viking age. it consists of earthworks walls and trenches which in some thirty kilometer. fortifications date back some one thousand years they can best be explored by bicycle. and the down a vehicle was built to protect the just land peninsula against invaders. the down of america was the longest lasting border of the middle ages and the best preserved in its various phases as we see here the best waldemar zwolle for example was a very innovative construction for the time. they had already gone to build with bricks in the twelfth century. the site gives us a unique insight into how the vikings lived. the archaean or. tical finds indicate this was one time to
a global trading talent. here in haiti but we found mercury holes that came from western afghanistan. we also found boats of bronze and were spotted from the white sea area last seen in. comms and so as a trading made of it was something like the major ports of hamburg in rotterdam are today. in the place where all kinds of western trading routes came together and dispersed again. we had. paid to build proofs that the vikings were not just the strangest people who lived in harmony with nature. for our next report my colleague meghan leap paid a visit to spain's and maybe even the world's oldest restaurant it doesn't go back all the way to viking times but is almost three hundred years old the sobrino they were teen in madrid opened in seven hundred twenty five now tastes changed
a lot since then so how can a restaurant survive for so many years making went in search of the secret recipe. hundreds of famous plots on line or squares almost four hundred years old it bore witness to bull fights and trials during the spanish inquisition now though it serves as a popular gathering place many of the corridors and cobblestone streets also dates back centuries hidden gems lurking around every corner but only one holds a very special title. so here we are at the oldest restaurant in the world do you know team that means the nephew of fourteen and spanish on the teams were the original owners of this establishment words at first wasn't in it was a french couple who started it so let's go inside and see what we discover. the gonzalez family took over the restaurant in the one nine hundred thirty s. now in its third generation antonio gonzalez is the managing director family
tradition here is keep the decor of the restaurant reflects both the present owners personal touch as well as the original style. in one thousand nine hundred eighty six the guinness book of world records designated the oldest restaurant in the world for very specific reasons is that they must be given the same name they would be working at the same. work centers to begin we're companies through. the restaurant opens daily at one pm but before that the staff are busy making all the preparations for the lunch crowds protein is famous for its traditional spanish dishes. the rare whatever. it is so tell me about the specialty of this house may be. special to the houses. which in your very traditional dish we prepare it in this so this is
a very special welcome because it dates back to the seventeen twenty five percent original we all are growing in message. in the sort of. one floor below the kitchen antonio tells me that this dining room is even older than the restaurant dating back to fifteen eighty it leads down to a cave which boasts a long history the wine here is for display only since the room produces too much more. sprays are used maybe since the i'll be on time center for the first sea breeze and some to drink old buildings and the. construction of a back up stairs in time for lunch traditional roast second pig is of course on the menu served by long time meter deep caviar sanchez after forty years of protein he's also become
a permanent fixture here he tells me one suckling pig can serve up to five people. one particular guest used to eat here quite regularly and that is the american writer ernest hemingway in fact he liked this restaurant so much that he wrote about it in this book the sun also rises and also one of the other books death in the afternoon and tony what do you know about hemingway's time here he was ready for me to here to roast beef roast a problem here in between you going to try to buy one person. with no good results then my grandfather told him and i still keep on bright you know i mean we could get by myself. so in this spirit i guess it's time to raise our glasses and say salute and to the next few hundred years of business and. now we're venturing up to the mall blocks the white mountains some gold at the
highest peak in europe although that's subject to some debate she's a high peaks in russia and georgia what's certain is that it probably stands at four thousand eight hundred ten metres and the alpine region between france and italy we travelled that to learn more about the mountains history. long the highest mountain in. its stood here since the beginning of time located in charmingly france it is a premier winter destination for tourists all over the world. that sudan has lived in charmine for over thirty years as an official guy she understands very well what draws tourists to this region yet. the whole valley shines with these mountains the mountains together with mont blanc are amazing that's the attraction here. but once upon a time people thought the mountains were full of ghosts and dragons and so on and.
everyone was afraid of what was up there. it was said sherman he was located in the bad mountains then in the middle of the eighteenth century two englishman came from geneva he had heard all this talk about chamonix and decided to see the erie valley for themselves. so this is the high and. the first actual mountain pioneers were crystal hunters who extracted courts from the mountains of chamonix it was then shipped off to geneva even made its way to the halls of versailles harmony's crystal museum visitors can get an idea of the minerals extracted from long and its neighboring peaks. foreshadowing that imagine sherman he was a very small simple village people had a simple life and were poor house before that and then they found out without having to climb too high up the mountain that with these rockers tools they could possibly sell them in geneva and make some money. and then have
a better life and be sent home that pioneering spirit has certainly paid off for sure many tourists now flock to the village to travel with the cable car to reach a height of thirty eight hundred meters above sea level. even with the most modern technology and safety measures in place the ride is not for the faint of heart. but once of the top the mystique of month long becomes very clear during visitors can dangle over the mountains in a glass box and on a sunny day you can see for miles into the distance. skiing at this altitude without parched and puts the body to the test. a moment it is very beautiful because of the high altitude it is quite difficult to breathe up here. but this altitude allows visitors to see all the major peaks
including the matter horn and the distance. tourism in charm and he has come a long way over the last two hundred fifty years it is now one of the most exclusive winter in destinations in europe initially though tourists first started coming here not for long before a seven and a half a kilometer long glacier known as the man to the last reachable by train. it's europe's third biggest glacier of located on the northern side of. long can also be enjoyed in the sweet form here the cafe you visitors can delight in and the rate of french pastries but the best selling ones represent the famous mountain. has owned this cafe for thirty years or chocolates are award winning. i know it was
a busy so here we have the law cake i'm going to take one and we can discover it together over the kugel so much of. what we're. thinking consists of layers of chocolate mousse rum flavoring and lots of chantilly cream and if that's not enough there's another version that is just as decadent. then you're. back outside the atmosphere in germany is relaxed as another day comes to an end over a month long. but i hope you enjoyed the highlights of the week you'll find all this week's shows reports much more on our website dot com slash lifestyle i'll see you november of often are.

a serious collector i did her makeup for over thirty years and advised her on fashion and style. one day she said to me that she'd done an advert for lipstick before i was even born it was for the folks left unchecked meaning people slipstick or vo for short the headline in the popular bill tabloid was the men have v.w. so now the women have video. and this is it here they cost one mark fifty back that. underworld the satiation maintains a permanent takes a bishop in a form a storage area off a subway station it documents hitler's architectural plans for the capital he appointed his chief architect are about share as general building inspector. history in the present is a major topic in. this exhibition is intended to make a small contribution to it whether on a stroll through town or visiting from elsewhere by revealing some of the many
facets that aren't always that apparent. but then has countless restaurants like the sardine bar. deane's and other fish and seafood to serve right from the tin there are more than seventy different types which. is very proud of. him as i got the idea for a sardine bar while on holiday in lisbon portugal. there aren't many tables so if you're interested you best book in advance. no no to the district a friendly sign things here are a bit more colorful than in many other parts of the city walls pose an opportunity for all to still a trip there a shop selling handmade clothes and accessories and a textile shop called ocean. if it has ever been i'm a vegetarian so it was quite a humorous thing to do and does seem to have captured people's imaginations it also
fits in with the site because things appear to be one thing. in fact quite another . piece in the district of horn should housing is a great place to relax many would no doubt love to live in this bungalow at least it's open to the public it was the last place bauhaus architect to be found the hole it designed in germany. can they bring just picked a vice and z. is rich in natural beauty spot it takes its name from a lake that's popular for bathing it's a world away from city life though not very fun from the city center. and that's just scratching the surface of this wonderful city are cold so make sure to visit some day now we're headed further north to soak up some ancient history near the german danish border you can get an accurate picture of how vikings lived
over one thousand years ago at the height of two settlement and the dawn of act four trips back in the eleventh century these sites were the center of the trade networks between northern and western europe today seven viking houses and the landing bridge invite visitors to experience what life was like back then. the vikings life was not for the faint hearted the men hunted for food with bows and arrows. pans made clothes and cloth kept them warm during the cold winters. vikings built wooden ships with the simplest of. the viking settlement of haines or blue once numbered among the foremost in the medieval trading centers in northern europe. died should visitors how the vikings went about their daily lives over a thousand years ago. it was
a life in and with nature but had an incredibly sharp power of observation they were very well acquainted with the materials around them and knew how to use them to their advantage to build housing ships and wagons and make rope. they made a great many things that we could hardly even imagine today to be on the fourth and current. capabilities in a college dine in northern germany. seven facts to roof wooden houses have been faithfully reconstructed. the settlement was built at the end of the shoreline an inlet on the baltic sea. it was a strategic location for trading precious metals weapons and pelt today it's a treasure trove of jests. behind me the eyes here
of a viking age settlement in the ninth tenth and eleventh centuries the first glance it doesn't look like much because it's just a green meadow but there's usually an archaeology the real treasures lie underground and here behind us there isn't a square centimeter that doesn't contain archeological finds. we always say hey that was archaeologically contaminated. in the nearby viking museum visitors can inspect many of the original artifacts. it's one of chalets because shine is the most popular museum. over one hundred thousand people come and you are in search of the real vikings. the museum shows the viking is highly developed from the sun still the smiths are not for example or the pill jewelry things that often surprise visit is. up four hundred from the profession unlike the classic image of the vikings as warriors what i find after such an intense examination here is that
above all they were internationally trading europeans even somewhat cosmopolitan. many of the have to. be in the hands craft with very highly developed and that indicates they were not just worry is definitely a culture they are quick to for a come on. the down of a canny hate of you is another significant archeological site from the viking age. it consists of earthworks walls and trenches reaching some thirty kilometer. fortifications date back some one thousand years they can best be explored by bicycle. and the down a vehicle was built to protect the just land peninsula against invaded. the donna vereker was the longest lasting border of the middle ages and the best preserved in its various phases as my saying here the best waldemar small for example was
a very innovative construction for the time. they had many guns are built with bricks in the twelfth century. the site gives us a unique insight into how the vikings lived. the archaean. fines indicate this was once home to a global trading power. here in haiti but we found mercury holes that came from western afghanistan. we also found us of brass and were brought here from the white sea. and so as a trading hateable was something like the major ports of hamburg in rotterdam are today. and they've gotten some place where all kinds of ways of trading groups came together and dispersed again we have. paid to build proofs that the vikings were not just. strangers and people who lived in harmony with nature.
but we stay in northern germany for some wonderful nature just a little further southwest from a viking site you can go on a very special hiking tour through the wardens see every six hours the tide changes drastically their use of the ebb and flow of the tides it's then possible to walk far into the mud flats when the tide is going out hiking directly on the sea bed. high no bearing is taking his guests on a special kind of to he's going to show them how to land become sea and the sea land. now we're headed out at the water on sea is low point for we're going now later this afternoon the water will be about this high above our heads. nobody knows the mudflats around the north sea island of houston like hina baron his father before him was also
a mudflats guide and whenever he was ill hina had to take over the first time was when he was just eleven and that was almost six decades ago. although now if you look back there you'll see a whole sticking up on the horizon you see it that's where we're headed it's going to be interesting. they walk nearly two. two and a half kilometers out on to the mt flats. above the water's already rising we have to make sure we arrive on time and go on. to high no one says guess to save at this strange place and see how fast everything changes though doesn't see that this is the one sees deepest point. in the time it took us to get from back there down here the sea level has risen about forty centimeters back there you can still see a little patch of the mudflats that was visible as a much larger island. if we were out there on it now we'd
be entirely surrounded by water. now the water is pushing in our direction from the sea well with on the horizon it's changed again it changes from minute to minute wherever the water isn't rippled it's moving fast. how much water would you guess has to flow in per minute between order ny and used and between poor used. to submerge this vast area of the mudflats only really going about thirty three when the last of that that happens three or four times a day it was low tide just a moment ago and now here comes the high tide. and we decide the tides move such a massive amount of water in here from the north sea in six hours and twenty minutes that it can cover an area of months lots eleven caves in that direction. anyone over there and thirty case and not directions to an average of between two meters forty and two meters. that's a gigantic mass of water. unimaginable it shows the power of
a title and then flow if you've got a look now let's move on to higher ground and now all the way to the left of our main room. down through the water now it's going around and you can see how it wobbles and rushes. what you see. there and. the kid gets funds evenin changing from minute to minute we can't stay here much longer let's go over to the other side of the law and when you go through the water and on the east walk like a story you know long don't try to push your way through or the water will start running over your boots though you know this is still flat enough that you can get over there easily. but you have a no draw a line well movement up and you stand behind it looking in that direction. then begun to i can see the water coming straight towards you down then you then
just knew by the time i get across this entire area will have gone on the good wife but i will be safe here you can see the waves and be quiet as a mouse can you hear the water flowing north. it's not hard to hear the incoming tide music. it looks so peaceful that many visitors underestimate the speed of the approaching water the situation can sweep people become life threatening. now we can go diagonally across here to the other side so we can have
a look at. the good quickly zigzags they way back to the island high no knows exactly where the ground is saif. i'll move them hollow right behind me. don't go up higher to the left i'll have to walk through the water a little movement of the most. once again the high no bearing has brought everyone cycling back before the time which is the island. well now that we've explored the north let's venture south to the state of area most people associate it with the annual october fest with down those and later big brass bands and hearty meals but even outside the beer fest season very attracts tourists with us mountains lakes and castles now to anniversaries have prompted a special celebration one hundred years ago the free state was founded and two hundred years ago the state's constitution was written to mark the double
anniversary an exhibition called the myth of bavaria explores the low and legends behind the cliches. that they are in a straight out of a coffee table book traditional costumes and customs and stunning scenery those are the things people associate with ovarian and they've helped make it one of germany's most popular vacation destinations tourists never tire of the state and its people its fairy tale castles and the varian lifestyle not to mention its famous. shorts good very good looking specially the alfie with the strap with the. i don't know what you call it a costume but it's good looking the barrier such a beautiful area in this and all of the street and all of the houses a lot of people so fantastic. woods
mountains and a king's dream that's the name of an exhibition at the center of a very in history which explores the various legendary status. two hundred fifty items are on display here they show for instance how hunters and lumberjacks cultivated the inhospitable landscape. farmers often lived from what they could reap from the forests was vital as both a construction material and an art but it was landscape painting. in the eighteenth or nineteenth centuries that turns that there is forests lakes and mountains into dream destinations in which was fine for the lower of bavaria and it connects the pine region with a certain lifestyle and connection was marketed far beyond germany's borders it's always football with all the city images generated still stick in people's minds to this day trip from dimension feast. the house of
the royal family of bavaria contributed to local pride and patriotism and pen around as folk festivals traditional costumes and beer steins came to symbolize the southern german state leader who is now in particular became to appear to me at the national costume the very it was portrayed as an it didn't take place and we just by various mystic status was created by man not by the gods you know some other myths claim it's the only thing in a very in myth that did not come from humans is the mountain and they play a big role in that and everything else is added to them a lifestyle the shoe popular which developed from a dance for singles into apartments and to top things off look rick the second fairytale castles. the famous king is still fundamental to the various image today he built noise council the state's most famous structure it attracts some one point four million visitors
a year then there's october fest every fall some six million revelers come to raise a toast in style. but they were also famous for its corps. and its soccer team byron munich germany's most successful soccer club has fans around the world. but these alpine meadows. are far away from the hustle and bustle of munich down to earth very and soon like to get away from it all. can stay at a mountain then like the five i am. here for a local beer and in good company you can use over the nature of the quintessential the very end. of a ferry and cannot be transplanted someplace else he's at home there and he's grounded their electric soak alexander for home when he was in south america he
said he would never take up a very in mountain guide with him because they got homesick a big deal. at the many ends in the valley tourists can discover more of a very interesting like the shoe plotline a traditional style of folk dancing that's still practiced here. visitors from around the world are welcome to join in. memphis not in we try to show people what life is like in the hospitality and we try to lift their spirits so they enjoy their holiday we care about our roots there's nothing better than bavaria gift of newcrest. the very place where dreams come true it's an image kept alive by tourists and the very hands that like . a final stop on today's tour of germany sees us take a very special train ride in the hearts of the country it goes straight through the
hearts mountains the highest range in northern germany at an altitude of more than one thousand one hundred forty me says the balkan is its highest peak i'm chugging up the mountain some of the last few steam locomotives here in europe which are still in service while the passengers sit the stokers sweat so all aboard for on the trip with trusty tank engines that have been running for generations. this train is hard to miss the broken railway in the hearts mountains when you see think plumes of smoke rising you can be sure it's on its way for the past one hundred years it has snaked through the same fantastic landscape every day and scaled the highest peak in northern germany the broken. inside the engine room it's
hot and dirty it's fuel with coal that needs to be shoveled into the one thousand five hundred degree furnace it's no easy job but make outguess now loves his work he's been working as a stoker for the narrow gauge railway since last august. and i heard on the radio that they were looking for stokers so i decided to apply and was lucky enough to get picked for. the train might be from the nine hundred fifty s. but it runs on a modern timetable several times a day it climbs up the broken mountain to the peak at an altitude of around eleven hundred meters in the winter the peak is often covered in snow. this makes it a special treat for passengers even if they're sometimes greeted by a snow storm at the top they just have to make sure to bundle up.
at each stop the crewman regularly carry out inspections whatever the weather. the worst part is the wind and when the snow freezes it feels like needles pricking your face and when you get off the train you almost get blown over. fifteen minutes later the train trundles back towards the valley the next stop is very good order where lives. the colorful town in the hearts foothills has plenty of curiosities to see like the crooked house that tilts even further than the leaning tower of pisa all the thing that's not even three metres wide. the old child hole is also worth a visit originally established as a shapiro house it was the town's venue for dances performances and celebrations we
also spent some winters here in venice. but the city center is not all there is to see the old costs are rising above the hills is another must say in the nineteenth century it was home to count. today it's been turned into a museum. but. has no time for he's already on his way back. into the snow. for today i hope even joy trip across germany will be back tomorrow with another trip through another european country. special we're off to britain where we.
