Ancient Cultures
Each culture has its traditions and customs. In order to unders-tand them, we must go deeper into history and search for relati-onships among the living conditi-ons, religions and the influences of neighboring peoples. Traditions are carried on via original rituals wherein people try to draw near to divine models and via myths and tales which are handed down from generation to generation to maintain a nation’s cultural lines. We ÿ nd them in their purest forms only in regions still untouched by technological progress and areas such as these are on the decline.

Natural Wonders
Travel to the most amazing places on our planet-regions of eternal ice in the world’s highest mountains and the unbelieva-ble heat of the rough crags and deserts! From the creeks in the mysterious Amazon, we move to the most expansive coral cliffs and then into the deepest lake.

Natures Fury
When nature breaks its normal chain and the elements begin to move, then living creatures must be on the alert so that they do not lose their lives. Earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes spewing for-th lava, tornados and avalanches usually signify ruin for every-thing in their path. However, if we are not directly threatened, it is diffcult not to be captivated by such scenes.

Ancient Sites
We find traces of ancient civilizations the world over. Based on our conceptions of the world’s high standards now, we are fascinated by the knowledge and technology which the people who came long before us had already mastered. Th e South American pyramids and complexes, Egyptian pyramids, the Great Wall of China or the statutes on the Easter Islands leave no doubt about that the fact that perhaps people once did and knew more than we are able to imagine they could have today.
