Путівники

Надихаючий путівник, розроблений для любителів вина: виноградники, які варто відвідати, сезони, які варто відвідати, урожай і органічні продукти, які можна випити, і як отримати максимум від кожного виноробного регіону.

Пригоди, описані в цій атмосферно ілюстрованій книзі, підживлять уяву любителя вина майже нескінченною низкою відвідин виноградників, визначних пам’яток і подій, які варто відвідати, — фестивалі врожаю, пікніки у виноградниках, вихідні у виноробні регіони, дегустаційні тури та винні ресторани.

Розроблений, щоб висвітлити найвигідніші виноробні напрямки у світі, цей путівник охоплює спектр від традиційних (винний обід у Бордо чи екскурсія португальськими портовими будівлями) до веселих і дивних. Деякі ідеї є активними – велосипедна прогулянка по регіону Шампань або топтання винограду в італійській сільській місцевості – тоді як інші більш міські, наприклад, екскурсія літніми винними садами Відня чи культовими енотеками Риму. Панелі бічної панелі детально описують, що робить кожен регіон особливим, і містять списки п’яти найкращих місцевих вин, які варто шукати.

Тут є щось на будь-який смак і на будь-який рівень знань – від постійних учасників #WineWednesday до початківців енофілів, які тільки починають.

People have always been fascinated by the mountains. They are a source of strength and a symbol of freedom, the perfect setting for an in-depth time-out, for self-discovery, or the sporting challenge. Beyond the hustle and bustle of everyday life, the beauty of nature offers inspiration and relaxation.

In the setting of the Alps, this volume presents wonderful new accommodations with powerful design ideas that have been consistently applied. The architecture enters into a dialog with the mountains and appears sometimes archaically rough, wooden and close to nature, or also with contrasting shapes and materials. Despite the many different concepts, the presented projects are always distinguished by their high-quality design, their uniqueness, and their individuality.

Від часів Євромайдану Київ став місцем, де між Сходом і Заходом вирішується майбутнє Європи. За цей час гібридна війна на сході України та на Кримському півострові переросла в повномасштабну загарбницьку війну. Видатні споруди та життєво важливі об’єкти інфраструктури в столиці — Києві — зазнали обстрілів.

Архітектурний путівник по Києву презентує добірку зі 100 вартих уваги будівель, споруджених за останні 100 років, складену українським дослідником історії архітектури Семеном Широчиним. Тут представлені типові житлові комплекси авангардної архітектури, імпозантні палаци сталінської епохи, культові зразки радянського модернізму, а також видатні будівлі, зведені в добу незалежної України.

На понад 300 сторінках цей архітектурний путівник доводить, що Київ — це набагато більше, ніж столиця України. Київ — невіддільна частина європейської спільноти націй, де взаємна повага цінностей має більше значення, ніж влада сильнішого.

Ця книга є частиною серії Історії архітектури України, започаткованої видавництвом ДОМ у відповідь на російську повномасштабну загарбницьку війну проти української держави, розпочату 24 лютого 2022 року.

There are easy walks for beginners-some lasting barely an hour – and more demanding challenges that may take several weeks to complete.

In short, 1001 Walks You Must Experience Before You Die is an essential reference book and guide for all those who love to get out of their cars, get off their bikes, and lace-up their walking shoes.

Любите все, що стосується Японії, або хочете ввібрати трохи японської мудрості у своє повсякденне життя?

Від філософії ікіґай та вабі-сабі до кітчевих вечорів караоке та футуристичних ресторанів роботів; традиційні чайні церемонії та спокійні житла онсен до культури косплею та мегазірок J-Pop; Японія сповнена інтригуючих протиріч.

Незважаючи на те, що Японія відома своєю ультрасучасною столицею Токіо - розгалуженим освітленим неоновим світлом мегаполісом зі сторінок науково-фантастичного роману, - Японія все ще глибоко вкорінена в давні традиції. І в той час як країна працює з точністю годинникового механізму, культурне життя жителів змінюється зі зміною пір року, що є свідченням тривалої сили природних ритмів.

З кожною сторінкою, наповненою фактами, історією та натхненням, Be More Japan розкриває таємниці сучасного японського життя – незалежно від того, їсте ви суші в Лондоні чи насолоджуєтеся цвітінням сакури в Сан-Франциско. І якщо ви мрієте про майбутню подорож до Японії, ця книга наблизить вас до місця призначення ще до того, як ви вирушите.
