Hikayat Al-Jawahir Thalath..............(DVD_20100121151506.jpg)

Khleifi's Tale of the Three Jewels was the first feature ever filmed in the Gaza Strip, which makes it perfect for Been-Seen's Movie Atlas. It was made entirely on location, by the sea, in the refugee camps and on the city streets - providing a fascinating insight into a unique environment.

Shark Attack!...........................(blu2.jpg)

If you've enjoyed Been-Seen's posts on street artists Banksy and JR, check out this amazing mural in the Barrio Carmelo district of Barcelona. It's the work of Italian graffiti artist and stop-motion animator Blu.

Rent a Castle...........................(castleChteaudelaFlocellire.jpg)

Who wouldn't want to stay in a castle? C'mon... Travelodge vs. Château de la Flocellière (above)? That's about as no-brainy as it gets. More cool castles after the jump.

Eco Villa Swing

At the Soneva Kiri in Thailand we found those two swinging spots. Start at the Eco-Villa swing, then head over for a unique taste experience in the dining-pod, a woven wooden basket hung above the green tops. 

The Sting...............................(scorpion2.jpg)

First things first... Scorpions are flourescent under UV light. I never knew that. They look pretty amazing. (You can even build your own scorpion detection device using UV rays.) And here's another amazing fact - the venomous critter you try to avoid when you're traveling could help us save lives and make the planet more green.

Let me explain...

Image your own spot on Mars and have it delivered to your desktop. 

HiRISE stands for High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment and is managed by the University of Arizona. The HiRISE camera onboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter is the most powerful one of its kind ever sent to another planet. Its high resolution allows us to see Mars like never before. Now comes HiWISH

Titanic

If you rest, you rust. Even if you are titanic.

Travel, explore, see the world. A difference where and how we travel.

Look, No Hands!.........................(tugo1.jpg)

It's one of those things you'd have never thought you needed. But now that it exists, you wonder how you lived without it. The tugo is a simple thing: a cupholder for your suitcase. Genius.

recycled temple

It’s one thing to incorporate used materials into your living space, it’s another to completely make it out of them.  The Wat Pa Maha Chedi Kaew temple in Thailand is an amazing example of just how you really can turn waste into wonder.

Night Glow..............................(FestivalInternationaldeBallons1.jpg)

From 23 to 31 January, 2010, Château-d’Oex will host the 30th edition of the Festival International des Ballons. Over the course of the Festival, the Swiss mountain village will welcome more than 90 balloons from 15 different countries (and some pretty surreal ones at that - see below). But the event not to miss is the Night Glow, which takes place on Friday the 29th at 18:58 precisely.



Sounds like vacation, spa time, quality time ? Mexico still ranks as the number one vacation destination for travelers from the US. For many, this means big tourist centers like Cancun and Los Cabos, as well as sprawling resorts and hotels. If, however, you want to get away from all that, some destinations add their own special flair to the Mexico getaway - and Hotel Verana, outside of Puerto Vallarta, is one of the best.
