I went to Regensburg and nearby Nuremberg at the same day. I must confess my impression that the latter completely overshadowed the former. Both are mediaeval cities but while Nuremberg …

Reviews by Assif


Paphos (Inscribed)
Paphos
Paphos is a very touristy city on the Western coast of Greek Cyprus. It features abundant huge restaurants and English pubs which makes it lack any integrity it might have …

Painted Churches in the Troöd… (Inscribed)
Painted Churches in the Troödos Region
Of all the Troodos churches, I've only been to the only one easily accessible by public transport from Nikosia - the one in Galata. We took the effort to go …
The Hula (On tentative list)
The Hula
The Hula used to centre around a lake that was dried up by the Zionist pioneers in favour of the establishment of new agricultural settlements. The last twenty years saw …

Biblical Tells (Inscribed)
Biblical Tells
Hatzor user to be a major city spread over an area of 800 Dunam. The site is very much like the one in Megiddo (Armageddon) only larger. It retained an …
Horvat Minnim (On tentative list)
Horvat Minnim
Horvat Minnim is a medieval Arab residence next to the shore of the Sea of Galilee. It is striking how little is done to preserve it. The mosaics are now …

Dubrovnik (Inscribed)
Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik was an important republic of merchants similar to Venice, Pisa and Genoa. Unlike the other three Dubrovnik was seriously damaged by an earth quake which not only irreversibly changed …

White City of Tel-Aviv (Inscribed)
White City of Tel-Aviv
Tel Aviv is my home city and I love it. Nonetheless I feel obliged to warn the visitor from its quite ugly architecture and neglected appearance. It is a vibrant, …

Mostar (Inscribed)
Mostar
After having been heavily bombarded during the Yugoslavian War Mostar is now experiencing a revival. The old town is full of shops, bars (and - tourists) and is very picturesque. …

Sacri Monti of Piedmont and L… (Inscribed)
Sacri Monti of Piedmont and Lombardy
During my trip to the lakes north of Milan I visited Ossuccio near the town of Como (not far from Tessin in Switzerland either). This sacro monte is mostly noted …

Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch (Inscribed)
Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch
Staying at the very touristy town of Interlacken (or smaller and yet more touristy Grindelwald) I drove up several mountains. The Trümmelbach waterfalls are nice to visit. There's also a …

Dresden Elbe Valley (Delisted)
Dresden Elbe Valley
I had heard so much of Dresden before visiting it I must confess I didn't truly know what to expect. I knew it was practically erased during WWII and was …

Vienna (Inscribed)
Vienna
I too lived in Vienna for some time. I don't want to glorify this city further but focus on some of the museums found in the inscribed area - great …

Works of Antoni Gaudí (Inscribed)
Works of Antoni Gaudí
That Gaudi is the most original modern architect is perhaps consensual. I truly loved what I saw (the usual Battlo, Milles, Park Guell and the Sagrada Familia). I had a …

Split (Inscribed)
Split
Same as other reviewers here, what impressed me most was the very fact that an ancient Roman palace evolved into a city! This is amazing and creats a sense of …

Old City of Jerusalem (Inscribed)
Old City of Jerusalem
The Old City of Jerusalem is truly exceptional, not only for its history and architecture, but also (and for me mainly) for its unique mixture of people incomparable to anywhere …

Kotor (Inscribed)
Kotor
I went to Kotor for a day trip from Dubrovnik which seemed near enough (actually the border control took us three hours!). The old town is indeed beautifully situated and …

Stolac (On tentative list)
Stolac
Stolac is a town not far away from Mostar (about 45 minutes ride) and isn't very attractive in its own right. It used to be a charming Ottoman town but …

Blagaj (On tentative list)
Blagaj
Blagaj was certainly the highlight of my trip to Bosnia. It is a sacred Muslim site in an inspiring natural setting. The Dervish Madrasa (perhaps comparable to a Christian monastery) …

The historic urban site of Po… (On tentative list)
The historic urban site of Počitelj
Pocitelj is situated on a hill near Mostar and is easily accessible by bus. As many other Bosnian sites, this town is Ottoman in style. It is a historic fortified …
