HUGE Polish Castle Governed by ELITE Medieval Knights - MALBORK Castle
The legendary teutonic knights ruled their lands from this castle until Polish kings forced them out. Join me going inside medieval Malbork castle, Poland, which is the largest of its kind in the entire world. The castle was never conquered. It was eventually sold and became residence of Polish kings. You will be hard pressed to find a more stunning castle with a prouder past than this castle, the castle of the teutonic order in Malbork, also known as Marienburg. The largest castle in the world. I learned a lot about Polish history while visiting this castle.

If you come here and enter this Polish castle you will find a true medieval castle experience. Not only the biggest castle in the world, but also the most stunning in my opinion. The headquarters of the order of teutonic knights. They ruled large areas in Northern Europe for hundreds of years. The polish castle of Malbork is both stunning and huge. The castle has been beautifully restored to it...
An ECHO of a Brutal Past - A Spanish Wild SPECTACLE - Bullring Madrid

My visit and the brutality of what I saw at the biggest bullring in Spain gave me the feeling of returning to a past where arena games were "different" than today. This arena located in the capital of Spain, Madrid, is like a modern Colosseum. You may not like the activities there but the architecture is beautiful.

    I was in Tangier in 1993 and 1994. Nothing much changed except in those days the grand taxis were all yellow Mercedes and the petit taxis were all Peugots or Renaults. The scammers were just the same...usually 'do you want a guide?' or 'will you help me with my English lessons?' You are dead right. Be firm and polite but not afraid. I had a few occasions where they turned physically aggressive but I am a former amateur boxer it did not end well for them.

    I am from Sevilla and it is normal that you are not going to find eggs or bacon or what you call real food because we do not eat that for breakfast, is our culture and if you just wanna eat some eggs with bacon why don't you go back to your country.... Tourists are always the same and they try to impose their culture and that is not how things work. Here for breakfast we have toast, coffee or churros and if you don't agree with that then why did you come here. If you want to experience the real Spanish culture just do what real Spanish people do and if they have a drink at 12:00 and then they eat at 14:00 do the same thing. I recommend you going to the restaurant Eslava, 2 de Mayo or Robles. They are authentic and those are places where local people go.

      I believe there could be some serious opportunity in starting up a joint where they serve standard food the typical difficult tourists like for breakfast, but just an idea. Besides I think you might not understand my sense of humour very much.. I get that a lot. I also think tourists, when it comes down to it, are a rather good thing for Spain.But yes I have seen the protests against "legal tourism", rather odd in the big picture of things.But we like Spain so much and want to come back!!
