Procida, Italy

Procida - one of the color cities in the world and the smallest island of the Gulf of Naples. He did not look like a luxury resort, as has long been a prison for dangerous criminals (right up to 1986!).

Fez, Morocco

City of Masters of Fez is striking in its beauty and variegation. However, the spectacle is not for the faint of heart - it is the oldest shop on manufacture of leather, so the smell and the atmosphere here is appropriate.

Without leaving Morocco propose immediately walk through the small town of Chefchaouen Reef on the slopes of the mountains. This city is called "Emerald", by analogy with its famous green city. Only city in northwest Morocco is painted in various shades from light blue to dark blue. The reason for this lies in religion. For a long time in addition to the Muslim community lived here Sephardic Jews, according to the belief that it was a sacred color.

Nauru, Micronesia



The tiny island nation with a population of only about 10 thousand people may lure tourists with its pristine nature and unusual residents with their customs.
