kuhstall rocks ~ kirnitzschtal valley ~ bad schandau ~ schmilka

the kuhstall (cowshed) rock formation was the next nice day trip from bad schandau through the kirnitzschtal valley with the historic tram (since 1898). our first short stop was the small lichtenhainer waterfall, then we walked to the kuhstall through a quite sad destroyed forest to the kuhstall rocks.

kosice ~ kaschau ~ kassa ~ koszyce ~ cassovia

the gate into the city? no, it is the gate to its major church, the dome of holy elisabeth:

the dome of the sacred elisabeth / st.-elisabeth-dom / dom sv. alzbety

well, the european city of culture 2013, my home city kosice (kaschau, kassa, koszyce, cassovia) used the opportunity to restore few of its areas and turned disused objects like swimminng pool, military barracks, heat exchangers etc into cultural and urban space.
