This time I’m going to guide you through the secrets and magic of the Trevi Fountain, the most famous and beautiful fountain in the whole world. Before we start, let me give you a piece of advice. Once in front of the fountain, sit down and rest for about half an hour, fill a bottle of water at the Nasone (a typical Roman drinking fountain) that you will find on the right side of the big pool and bathe your eyes in the overwhelming beauty surrounding you: now that’s a glimpse of Rome that will be hard to forget! This is the most famous fountain in the world... And just one more thing: don’t forget to toss a coin over your shoulder into the fountain ! It’ll bring you luck!

Book excerpt: Learn about the history of the Trevi Fountain in Rome with iMinds Travel's insightful fast knowledge series. Rome is a city of fountains. As you wind your way down narrow lanes and through busy streets, you are sure to pass many a piazza graced with a fountain spread out before you. These unique works of architecture couple grandiose designs with the refreshing presence of cascading water. For those who have visited Rome, it may not surprise you to learn that there are in fact an impressive 280 fountains in the Eternal City. And the most famous of all is the Trevi Fountain. The name 'Trevi' comes from the words 'tre vie', which means 'three roads' in Italian, as it stands at the intersection of three Roman streets. Located in the Quirinale district and is often touted as one of Rome's "must-see" landmarks. Standing at 26 metres, or 85 feet, high and spanning 20 metres, or 65 feet, the Trevi Fountain is also the largest baroque fountain in the city. Its melange of marble, stone and flowing water beguile Romans and tourists alike. But did you know the water comes from one of the city's earliest aqueducts? Ancient reports tell us that a young virgin discovered the spring in the late first century BC. Upon its discovery, the Roman statesman Agrippa had the Acqua Virgine aqueduct constructed in 19BC. This aqueduct brings the water all the way from the Salone Springs, which are about 20 kilometres, or twelve and a half miles, from Rome. They provide water not only for the Trevi, but for all of the fountains in the historic centre of Rome. iMinds will tell you the story behind the place with its innovative travel series, transporting the armchair traveller or getting you in the mood for discover on route to your destination. iMinds brings targeted knowledge to your eReading device with short information segments to whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind.

Book excerpt: Nestled in a small piazza in the heart of Rome, Italy, is a spectacular fountain that is a masterpiece of both art and engineering. The Baroque-style Trevi Fountain is presented like a theater stage with mythical gods and creatures playing in the cascading waters. But the true wonder of the Trevi Fountain is the pre-industrial engineering which brought water from over hills and through valleys from many miles outside the city to the fountain-using just gravity. How did the Roman engineers pull off this amazing feat? Find out inside! Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A cold climate is no excuse for a dull, colorless garden. The key is knowing the right plants that will survive and thrive in even the chilliest environments. Who better to guide gardeners than an expert from the far north? Award-winning designer and Alaska gardener Brenda Adams has spent decades searching for exceptional plants that flourish in wintery climates. In Cool Plants for Cold Climates, she presents vivid and detailed portraits of the best and most beautiful of the bunch. When Adams moved from the warm Southwest to Alaska, she found herself in a different gardening world, with few guides on how to approach this new ecosystem. Now, more than twenty-five years later, she shares the secrets gained from her years of gardening experiments as well as bountiful advice from friends and local nurseries. She explains how to evaluate a plant, balancing its artistic attributes with its more utilitarian ones, as well as how to evaluate your space and soil. Adams then takes you into the nursery, offering guidance on how to pick the best of the best. Finally, she offers a detailed look at a wide variety of wonderful plants, highlighting those that offer overall beauty, are especially easy to care for, and solidly hardy. With more than three hundred vivid pictures of both individual plants and full gardens, Adams proves that there is a bounty of plants, in a rainbow of colors, waiting to brighten up your space.

Download or read book Feature Writing written by N. MEERA RAGHAVENDRA RAO and published by PHI Learning Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-09-12 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If we ask the lay readers why they read newspapers, the obvious answer would be to get news. However, what keeps the newspaper endearing and, in a way, enduring are the longer stories about people behind the news, about the humorous everyday experiences we all have, or the closer look at someone and the unexpected surprises we get in the process. In short, we call these features. In this substantially revised book on Feature Writing, the author with her vast experience discusses various aspects of Feature Writing. She focuses on different types of features found in newspapers—Humour and Satire, Brights, Human Interest Features, Travel Features and News Features—and illustrates each of these. In addition, she provides a detailed description of Profiles, Interviews, and Online Features with examples, and gives a clear analysis of Feature Writing Techniques. Intended as a text for students offering courses in Journalism, this book would also be extremely useful for freelance writers, and anyone who has a flair for writing. What is New to THE SECOND Edition Includes two new chapters on Obituary and Tribute, and Sports and new sections such as Blogs and Professionalism in Journalism. Provides more illustrations culled from recent newspapers. Gives explanatory notes on some key words used in the book, and a section on Vocabulary. What the Reviewers Say In this delightful book on FW [Feature Writing], Meera Raghavendra Rao brings home to us that writing a story or a novel is one way of discovering sequence in experience, of stumbling upon cause and effect in the happenings of a writer’s own life. In my view Meera Raghavendra Rao’s book on FW is an exceptionally good and useful book not only for all students of Journalism but also for all writers interested in FW. —V. Sundaram, News Today The author has used instances from her career spanning more than two decades to illustrate various situations in this book. —Deccan Chronicle The book is a rather exhaustive guide on ways to tell a feature story. Among the other pluses is the Indianness permeating the book—most sample articles are home-brewn. —The Hindu, Metroplus Weekend
