VPG-DVD-231 - VIENTIANE Since the sixteenth century Vientiane has been the capital of Laos and is situated in the heart of Indochina. The city originated at the point at which the first navigable section of the Mekong River joins with the Gulf Of Thailand. Vientiane was once a group of rural settlements and even today contains several village-like districts each with its own temple and traditional marketplace. At the end of the nineteenth century the French began to renovate the city's most important buildings and made Vientiane the administrative capital of their new colony and gave it a French look. There are some fascinating places to visit outside the city such as the Cultural Park Of The Laotian People, a large area on the banks of the Mekong River. Historic Vientiane also has some fine reconstructed buildings such as the Wat Impeng on the western bank of Pagoda Street. Artistic wooden carvings on the windows and doors, along with the paintings and stucco work on the walls, feature various legends from the life of Buddha. Some signs of affluence are beginning to appear and in future years Vientiane may become yet another Asian metropolis with skyscrapers, smog and manic rush hours. It is now poised to leap into contemporary times as it gradually emerges from its atmospheric curtain of bamboo.

VPG-DVD-115 - KRETA Crete is an island of light, the 'cradle of Zeus', with sun-drenched coastlines, picturesque villages and majestic mountains. No wonder that even the gods felt comfortable in this wonderful region of Greece. Heraklion is the capital of the largest and most southerly Greek islands, on which a highly developed culture has existed for 4000 years. The Venetians built massive fortresses to defend the island against the Turks The Gortys Ruins are reminders of the moving history of an old town that was prosperous in the 5th century B.C. when Gortys became the most powerful town of the Messara Plain and throughout the olive groves between the hills can be found the scattered remnants of its past cultural riches. With its beautiful sandy beaches, Matala is a popular coastal resort to which many come simply to experience the glorious sunsets in addition to the rich archaeological discoveries of the Phaistos Palace. Agia Galini is a quiet fishing village that, during the summer months, is a lively bathing resort on Crete's south coast. However, it has managed to maintain its original atmosphere with fishing boats in the harbour and crystal clear water lapping the shoreline, plus the allure of its tavernas and restaurants. The precipitous rocky coastline of Agia Roumeli is also the starting point of the Samaria Gorge that is regarded as the largest in Europe. Eighteen kilometres long and in places up to a hundred and fifty kilometres wide, the gorge stretches from the Libyan Sea right up to the heights of Lefka Ori. Picturesque harbours, ancient treasures, lost legends and Greek hospitality: who could possibly ask for more?

TVI-DVD-VNA - Vienna (Wien) City of Arts and Music" Vienna is Different" - that is the offical motto of this city on the beautiful blue Danube. And each time it confirms this to visitors from around the world... even to those who arrive from far away and may not know anything about the famous branch of the Hapsburg dynasty that made Vienna the renowned center of an entire multinational empire between 1526 and 1918.About one and a half million inhabitants of the entire country of Austria, lives in Vienna, a city where many of the affairs of this world are taken with a degree of levity.For our brief stopover in Vienna we have chosen the places that should not be missed by any tourist. The extensive complex of buildings constituting Hofburg, one part of which is the seat of the President, bears the architectual features of six centuries. The High Baroque style of the National Library, the Imperial suites, but also the Lipizzaner stallions of the Spanish Riding School are among its greatest attractions.The extensive royal castle of Schonbrunn with its exquisite interiors dominated by the Rococo - style festive hall is not merely a tourist attraction, but with its huge park, including a botanical garden, it has become a place of relaxation for Vienna residents.

RIH-DVD-TIBET - Tibet AdventuresOur first stop in Tibetwas Lhasa an altitude of over 12,000 feet. While in Lhasa, the heart and soul of Tibet we visited many of the sacred places for the Tibetans such as the Potala Palace, the Jokhang, the Drepung Monastery, and Norbulinka. We then journeyed to Gyantse over the Karo La Pass at 16,550 feet and later visited with some villagers. In Gyantse we toured the Kumbum with its many murals.In Shigatse, we saw the Llama dances by monks that ended with the purging of evil spirits from the monastery by a ritual fire. A boat ride took us to the Samye Monastery where we met the chanting monk shown on the cover.

TMT-DVD-120 - PALMYRA The ancient city of Palmyra is located in the Tadmur Oasis in the very heart of the Syrian savannah. Surrounded by arid desert it was once a proud and pulsating trading metropolis and everywhere can be seen relics of a bygone age that was full of myth and mystique. The influence of the legendary oasis city grew due to it having been regarded as a province of Rome. The Romans soon recognized the strategic importance of Palmyra as it was a vital centre of trade in the Near East. Palmyra's fine buildings such as its Amphitheatre were typical of its impressive architecture. Most of the Tetrapylon has been restored. It towers high above the ancient ruins and the Great Colonnade was once the main street of the historic metropolis. Beyond the city walls in the Valley Of Tombs the mystic atmosphere of the former caravan city becomes apparent. Several well preserved mausoleums give the surreal looking desert landscape a truly ghostly atmosphere. The architecture of these multi-floored burial places are unique in the world. The view from the Arabian fortress extends across the picturesque ruins of the city to the endless horizons of the desert. The oasis and ancient remains of Palmyra look almost surreal as if in a dream yet the old ruins and the mighty fortress really do exist in very tangible and resplendent form.
