DIAPOSITIVA 1

Hello, good evening Teacher and claasmates. My name is Alfredo and this is my
project.
My project is about three touristic places.
I start.
SLIDE 2
Uhmm , I will talk about Veracruz Mexico.
The temperatures in Veracruz are very hot. The hottest month is June, so people
choose to wear cool and comfortable clothes, for example , shorts, skirt, sport shirts,
etc. In Veracruz there are typical dances, for example, LA BAMBA, the typical dance
dress for men is a white shirt or guayabera, white pants, boots, white, hat and
paliacate. For women it is a white dress, white necklaces, white shoes or boots.

Okay, one of the traditions is the day of the lost child in Veracruz, celebrated on
December 7th in Tuxpan Veracruz. This tradition is because 12 year old Jesus
travels with his parents to Jerusalem for the Easter holidays, but they lose sight of
him, so people help to bring him back. You can light candles in the street to continue
the tradition.

SLIDE 5
Acropolis
The Acropolis was the "upper city", functioning as the seat of the main places of
worship. It is the most important and well-known place in all of Greece. It is located
on a peak that rises 156 meters above sea level. The view from that height is
wonderful
The Acropolis of Athens contains some of the most famous monuments of the
classical period in Greece: the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Temple of Athena
Nike and the Propylaea are some of the most important and striking buildings.

Panathenaic
Built in white marble between 1869 and 1870, the Panathenaic Stadium is the place
where the first Olympic Games of our era were held in 1896.
Today it is possible to walk through the marble stands where centuries ago the
spectators nervously waved, to enter the athletics track to put yourself in the shoes
of the ancient athletes, and even to climb the podium to have a souvenir photo next
to the rings that form the symbol of the Olympic Games.
SLIDE 6
Mount Athos
Mount Athos or Sacred Mount is located on a rocky peninsula on the shores of the
Aegean Sea that covers some 33,000 hectares and is home to 20 Orthodox
monasteries, including some of the oldest and most remote on the planet.
It is probably the largest place in the world where there is a ban on women. Some
1,400 monks currently live there and only 100 Orthodox and 10 non-Orthodox
pilgrims are allowed to visit each day.
Women are not allowed to set foot on this autonomous territory under Greek
sovereignty, protected by UNESCO, nor may they come within 500 meters of its
shore.

SLIDE 7
Koh LiPe
The small island of Koh Lipe is located in the south of Thailand. This island borders
Malaysia and there is the possibility to take a boat to cross from Koh Lipe to
Langkawi (Malaysia).
On Koh LiPe you can sign up for snorkeling and diving tours, take a boat trip,
sunbathe, etc.

Chiang Mai
Chiang Mai: the best place to see elephants in Thailand.
In Thailand, elephants are considered a national symbol. This is because this
species has lived and coexisted with the Thai people for many centuries. Elephants
are docile animals and in the past they were used for warfare.
Specifically, the city of Chiang Mai and its surroundings are home to multiple
sanctuaries or camps where you can see elephants.
