FRANCE

This large country is located in the western part of Europe. We will start our acquaintance with France from its capital - Paris. Paris stands on a river called the Seine. Tourists who come to the French capital always try to sail along the Seine in a pleasure boat. It is very convenient to see the city from it.

Here we are sailing past the grandiose cathedral. This is the world-famous Notre Dame Cathedral. It stands on an island in the center of Paris.

But the Louvre is one of the largest museums in the world. The museum itself is located in a large old palace, and the entrance to it is decorated with a modern glass pyramid (it is not visible from our boat).

The Louvre has a huge number of paintings and sculpture tours. The most famous painting is La Gioconda by the great Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci.

Having sailed a little more, we will see an amazingly beautiful bridge, along the edges of which there are golden winged horses on high columns. This is the Alexander III Bridge, named after the Russian Tsar.

And now the most famous building of Paris, the symbol of this city, the Eiffel Tower, appeared ahead. It was built over 100 years ago by the engineer Eiffel. Openwork, seemingly very light tower consists of 15 thousand metal parts. Its height is 321 meters. You can climb the tower. For this, there are elevators in it. Many rise to the first level. Those who are braver rise to the second level - a little lower than the middle of the tower. And the most daring rise to the third level, to the top of the tower...

Very interesting in Paris. But we need to hurry. I would like to quickly get to a wonderful fairy tale country located nearby - European Disneyland. This is a grand amusement park in which every child will find attractions to their liking.

Not far from Paris is one of the most wonderful places in France - Versailles. Once there was the residence of the French king, and now it is a museum. The Royal Palace in Versailles is surrounded by a beautiful park with fountains and sculptures.

And another excursion awaits us in France. We go to the banks of the Loire River to visit a real old castle. There are many castles here. Some of them are impregnable fortresses, others are more likely to be called palaces.

What famous French people do you know? Of course there are many. Let's name one that the whole world knows. This is an outstanding traveler, explorer of the ocean, environmentalist Jacques-Yves Cousteau (1910 - 1997).

GREAT BRITAIN

The UK is located northwest of France. Most of it is located on the island of Great Britain, hence the name of the country. The capital of Great Britain - London stands on the River Thames.

In the central part of the city you can see its main attractions. First of all, it is Buckingham Palace (1). The royal family lives here. The palace is guarded by guards in red uniforms and tall black hats. Every day, tourists gather to watch how the solemn changing of the guard takes place.

On the Thames embankment stands a very beautiful Parliament building (2). Its tower with the main clock of the country is visible from afar. This watch has four dials, and the length of the minute hands exceeds 4 meters! In 2012, the tower became known as the "Elizabeth Tower" in honor of Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain.

The Tower fortress (3) is also located near the river. And nearby, Tower Bridge (4) with two large towers is thrown across the Thames.

Great Britain is the birthplace of many famous people. Among them are the zoologist and writer Gerald Durrell (1925 - 1995), who became famous for his books about animals and did a lot to protect nature.

Comprehension and understanding of the acquired knowledge
