With her son Princess Gracia Patricia on this occasion was together again for the first time to the public.

Russia: the sealer on the Caspian Sea were the surprise of the week. The animals crafty by many chases played cat and mouse for the season-opening with their hunters.

Germany: The reminder of the week is this time all motorcyclists (original sound, smart and forgetful) prelude: the topic provided the century show in Brussels a week, under the emblem of the Atomium met 51 Nations, to move the balance to a more humane world. Belgium young monarch King Baudoin opened the world exhibition in 1958.
40 million people are expected on the 2 million square-meter site. And suppose you were one of these 40 million who have come here to a "day of tomorrow" experience. You would notice that you can land directly with an air taxi on the exhibition grounds You would still find that it is Very much difficult overall 25 kilometers on foot and you would certainly go in a gondola.

Pie in the sky: The first visit Of course is the Atomium, which gives you information about the progress of the nuclear development.
An escalator leads from ball to ball and may enjoy the feeling 100 meters above the ground, to be at the extreme point of a 150 billion times enlarged iron crystal.

Conventionally: the Pavilion of the USSR is like a mighty colossus, has been here the people working for the Center. And in a strange contrast the conventional works of art from Moscow All the time umlagerten to model the second Sputnik, surmounted by a single idea.

Avant-garde: Peaceful apart from the Soviet giants of the prototype of the United States rises. Completely different than the Russians the Americans To give himself humorous and avant-garde. The apartment of our grandchildren look accordingly.

Art of tomorrow: the visitors focus on the art is almost everywhere, but the art of tomorrow.
The vital issues of a nation are indicated mainly only symbolic. The Pavilion of the Netherlands for example almost exclusively confined to the eternal problem of the struggle with the sea.
To the afternoon coffee, "Concert for all" is served in the Bell Tower.

Controversial: Something off the beaten track and controversial: the Pavilion of the Federal Republic, which made it to the task, life and work in Germany to show.

Architecture of tomorrow: The absolute priority for the inspectors but undoubtedly lies in the formal design of the external environment. Never before so many style elements are pushed so hard and so violently together. But whether risky or daring, distorted or fantastic, one remains undisputed: the Brussels world exhibition is the gigantic Revue humanity ever offered; for architects and engineers, it has become the testing ground of the 20th century. Some things seem unusual and strange; but where they appear, they are calling on the to out an answer. Also if we not confidently affirm it, the concerns and the thinking join us here from Pavilion to Pavilion. -It is the glimpse into the future, that touches us all.

Playground: In the shadow of the Atomium a piece rests past: the Brussels of the turn of the century, an entire city out of papier-mâché. And this is the most amazing fact of the world exhibition: the historical throwback at the time of our grandfathers became the strongest magnets.
To approve is a little light in all tranquility, the "happy Belgium" is - as it is called-, the ideal refuge. Jean has invited Ludwig von Brabant personally.
If you have any appetite it, serves the finest specialities. And yet while 100 meters further the future the spirit of yesterday - in the most charming Museum in Europe triumphed here.

Fairground: in the Park of attractions to lure the latest achievements in the entertainment industry. Who has desire to stretch his nerves, please Very much, all there. Well, and late in the evening you can dance the doll, because the "happy Belgium" is a credit to his name. Punctually at 8 o'clock in the evening, the idyllic angle turn into an international playground for the good mood.

Balance sheet of the century seemed to us the best balance the General brotherhood. In Brussels, it is clearly on the credit side. Otherwise the motto remains: "for a more humane world" sincere desire and still hope.
