After visiting the caves Skocjan and dined at a nearby restaurant (the restaurant prices in Slovenia are small), we continued to visit the castle or Predjama Lueger Castle (Grad Preddjama in Slovenian). Spectacular
the glance of the castle that appears after a curve on the road nine kilometers from Postojna.
sunken castle materializes in a gigantic cave,





behind a wall peak of 123 meters, the only one castle in a cave in the world
. The origins of the castle date from the thirteenth century, it is a building on several floors of different ages, the castle is known to have belonged to Erasmus Lueger, a local squire devoted to banditry, ennobled in 1478 by Grand Duke Friedrich III of Augsburg for the services rendered by Erasmus. Later, during a conflict between Augsburg and the king of Hungary, Erasmus sided for the Hungarians. relations with Frederick III broke for the knight Erasmus Lueger killed a marshal of the court of Augsburg, after the crime Erasmo dug

in his den and began to plunder the caravans of merchants doing so enraged the emperor of Austria, the Austrian troops besieged the fort during the winter and spring of 1484, but was mocked by the besieged, when after long months of siege, from the castle, which now must be on its last legs, they began instead to rain on besiegers quarters of beef roast, vegetables of various kinds and even baskets of fresh cherries.
In the bowels of the mountain, behind the fortress, a development of karst caves linked to the river Vipava, allows men to sneak out of Erasmus and make food supplies in the surrounding countryside. all ended with the betrayal of a servant of Erasmus, the knight was use to perform their bodily functions at night and while he was seated on the throne concentrated in time of need, the traitor signals the presence of Erasmus in the Cabinet,

Skocjan Caves-Skocjan


from Belvedere: the picture in a sinkhole of Skocian summer three years ago


I would suggest for a trip, two very beautiful places a few miles away from each other .
They stay on the Carso, Slovenia.
These are the caves and the castle of St. Canziano Predjama.
Caves Skocjan (protected in 1986 by 'Unesco world heritage list since 1999 and the Ramsar Convention as a wetland in the world's largest underground).

from Belvedere: the bottom of the valley where the river Reka sinks

The caves are covered by the Reka River, one of the most mysterious rivers of the world, the Reka Group was founded in the snowy mountains and after a distance of 55 km. sinks in the caves of San Canzian (Skocianske Jame in Slovenia), where after a stretch of 2500 meters and 25 waterfalls disappears in the bowels of the earth, and after about forty km underground route unknown, as the river emerges Timavo forming three sources close to Saint John at Duino, a few miles from Trieste, which has resulted, after a couple of miles in the Gulf of Trieste, thus gaining the prize for shortest river in Italy.
visit (drive) a couple of miles takes about an hour and a half, in the caves the temperature is constant 12 °, due to moisture and water infiltration is advisable to visit with some sturdy shoes the foot and jacket.
In the first part you can visit the "cave of silence,"

nelle grotte

ricchissime di stalattiti e di stalagmiti dalle forme meravigliose e di molteplici colori,


spettacolari concrezioni multicolori


fra le quali una stalagmite denominata il Gigante alta 15 metri che si calcola siano stai neccessari 250.000 anni di accumulo di concrezioni calcaree per la sua formazione.


stalagmiti



Nella seconda parte si entra



nella grandiosa e indimenticabile " Grotta del rumore",




from the caves of silence, we enter the caves noise

so named because the noise caused by the river in the depths of the abyss Rieka.
This cave 100 meters high and 60 wide is crossed at 45 meters from a daring bridge.




to 45 meters high bridge a bold

After this cave Reka sinks into the mystery.




the Reka River sinks into the mystery, the green lights are the lights of the walkway

Heading towards the exit through other wonders, finally reaches the last cave where the light of day finally arrives, this huge cave walls 160 meters high with a diameter of 300 gives to the exit, a path, outdoors, with spectacular views over the river leads to an elevator for ascending to the visitor center.
From the visitor center along a picturesque path in a forest after a couple of hundred meters you arrive at the Belvedere, with a breathtaking view of the valley and the village on the opposite side.

Stop!

want our even the water we drink TO GIVE IN TO MONOPOLY MULTINAZIONAI:
FERMAT !!!!!




comes from the ground water, the water comes the soul ...

and rivers and the sea, is lake, pond, ice and more ...
is sweet, salty, brackish
is the place at which you stop and you are traveling


is pleasure and fear, enemy and friend is
border and
is infinite change and immutability
memory and oblivion
Heraclitus
... a frothy cascade
s'appende to the sides of monte
Li Po

Questo è il Serchio
al quale hanno attinto
duemil'anni forse
di gente mia campagnola
e mio padre e mia madre
che mi ha visto nascere e crescere
Giuseppe Ungaretti
is the song of water
is something eternal.
It 's the deep lymph
that matures fields
...
Garcia Lorca


WATER AND 'LIFE,
WATER AND' ALL,
NOT ALLOW THE EC RAPININO!
We must stop them!

Piazza del Popolo





Rome, Saturday, November 14, 2009




Piazza del Popolo


eravamo in centomila uniti per far sentire anche la nostra voce assieme a tanti, troppi, lavoratori senza un futuro, perché le aziende chiudono, perché il capitale porta i suoi interessi in altri angoli del mondo, indifferente alle migliaia di famiglie a cui viene sottratta la speranza ,di famiglie che dalla sera alla mattina si ritrovano senza reddito con i mutui da pagare, perché gli avevano fatto credere che i soldi si trovavano facilmente; questi lavoratori si erano illusi di poter finalmente diventare proprietari di una casupola and to send their children to college, with great sacrifices, but because the statement could have a better future than their parents, all this and more was brutally erased.
One question, for me, remains unanswered: Why
in the square there was only missing the CGIL and the other unions?
