If you're attending a World Cup game in Russia, why not leave the sweaty hooligans at the end of the match and come home to luxury? Airbnb continues to gain popularity in Russia, allowing tourists and other travelers to rent anything from a small and cheap room to a luxury apartment with everything included to comfortably spend the night. This home in St. Petersburg is believed to be one of the luxurious (and expensive!) Airbnbs in Russia. Available for $4,758 per night, this home is said to feature a large bed that was once used by Marie Antoinette, who was the Queen of France from 1774 until 1792, making her the last Queen before the French Revolution. The home gained popularity and publicity ahead of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, which included games in the city of St. Petersburg. This video from ZoomInTVLifestyle lets you take a look into the <a href="https://rumble.com/v3g257-petty-the-kitten-home-alone-timelapse.html" target="_blank">home</a>. In addition to a bed used by Queen Marie Antoinette, a reservation also grants you access to 3 bedrooms, each of which features large beds for 2 people, as well as 2 full bathrooms (a bathtub and a gold-colored shower) plus a toilet. The home also includes a number of large rooms with space for up to 200 guests - plenty of room to host a party! If the owner approves, of course. In addition to luxury bedrooms and bathrooms, this big apartment also features genuine antiques, a piano, and gorgeous paintings, some of which cover the ceiling. There are also meeting rooms and a large kitchen with all the modern appliances you might need during your stay. All in all, this home in St. Petersburg might be one of the most unique Airbnb apartments in the world. Its unique interior will make you feel as if you're sleeping in the 18th century - in a large bed once used by the Queen of France! If you only need an Airbnb room to crash and sleep before quickly heading out, this might not be the room for you. It would be a shame to rent this home without taking time to properly explore it. Across Russia, nearly 50,000 apartments are being offered on Airbnb as local landlords seek to join the Airbnb boom which has been seen in many countries around the world. Prices in Moscow have risen as much as 400% over the past few years, according to a recent report from RBTH, reflecting the rising popularity in the Russian capital. Prices surged even more during the FIFA World Cup. Travelers who plan to visit Russia in the near future and want to rent through <a href="https://rumble.com/v3ensz-airbnb-goes-wrong.html" target="_blank">Airbnb</a> should be aware that, to be approved for a tourist visa, the host will need to provide you with a formal invitation for the dates of your visit. This can make renting through Airbnb a little more complicated, as many of the bigger hotels offer a more simplified process to extend an invitation. St. Petersburg is the second-largest city in Russia, home to more than 5.2 million people. In addition to Moscow, it is one of the most popular travel destinations in the country. It can be reached by plane, train, car, and international cruise liners.

Are you an off-the-beaten path traveler? Here are 3 epic locations to explore where there are NO tourists and NO lines. Have you ever gone on vacation and wanted to connect with the local culture and people only to be plagued with other tourists? Here we show you three spots near tourist destinations that tourists do not go, abandoned places, off the beaten track, that any thrill seeker would enjoy. These 3 places are in the shadows of popular tourist destinations but are completely abandoned, giving you the freedom to explore. How adventurous! The first abandon location to explore is located a 45-minute drive from Dubai, the United Arab Emirates in Umm Al Quawain, you can find an elusive, crashed soviet cargo plane that holds an illegal past. Infamous arms dealer Viktor Bout, an arms dealing ace, used to smuggle weapons into Africa in order to fuel wars in the continent. He was captured in a sting operation in Thailand in 2008; however, his plane the Ilyushin Il-76 that he used for many missions transporting Eastern European weaponry to wars in Africa, using the free trade in the UAE at the time, is abandoned and free to explore at an airstrip in the Emirati desert. After 30 minute drive from Paris, France in Le Plessis-Robinson, you will find the second abandoned location to explore. A beautiful château that holds unsuspecting dark past. Before 1975 abortion was illegal in France and pregnancy before marriage was frowned upon, young expecting <a href="https://rumble.com/v53e8p-adorable-mothers-day-message-from-cute-kids-to-their-mom.html" target="_blank">mothers</a> would be hidden away in the château, also named solitude château, for schooling. Mother’s described their time at the château as “hell like”. While this location holds a twisted past, the beautiful chateau remains abandoned. The third abandoned location, which is located in Podolsk, Russia, an hour’s drive from Moscow. The gigantic Dubrovitsy estate looks magnificent but holds a tragic ending. The manor was built in the late 1700s and was held by noble families for over a hundred years. This manor was later held by Joseph Stalin, the leader of the Soviet Union from the mid-1920s until 1953. The manor is where Stalin kept his political prisoners in 1923. They were also executed on the grounds of the manor. The manor which holds architecture from the 18th century is too expensive to restore, so it sits in disrepair awaiting visitors. While the stunning manor holds a dark past, the building still looks elegant and free to discover. These three places are adventurous places to explore, in the shadows of popular tourist destinations. Instead of being swarmed by tourists, and seeing the same things that others see while traveling, why not explore interesting places that won’t be featured in tour guides. These places all have a dark past in common, which makes them perfect for the “off the beaten track” traveler or <a href="https://rumble.com/v5pqev-urban-explorers-investigate-abandoned-1950s-soviet-submarine-left-to-rot-in.html" target="_blank">urban explorer</a>s to enjoy.

One simply cannot visit Havana without taking a detour to Fusterlandia! From Old Havana to Jaimanitas the taxi ride takes about 20 minutes to this magical hidden neighborhood. Fusterlandia is a phenomenal place, a neighborhood transformed by the still-growing artistry of Jose Fuster. Those who have visited Barcelona will get a strong impression of Gaudi, although far more naive and more playful. Those who are l really lucky might even bump into the artist. Jose Fuster is a Cuban artist very often compared to Picasso. After a tour in Europe, he was engulfed in the idea to translate European modern art into the Cuban setting. Jaimanitas was an economically depressed area before Fuster arrived. In 1975, after moving into a modest wood house in the rundown neighborhood of Jaimanitas outside Havana, Fuster set about decorating his studio in colorful <a href="https://rumble.com/v4mqr9-bathroom-decor-ideas-mosaic-wall-decor-2020-dream-home.html" target="_blank">mosaic</a>. Once he was done there, he asked his neighbors if he could decorate their homes and business as well. There were a few open-minded enough to accept his offer and the tile creations grew. Over the course of a decade, fountains, doctors’ offices, gateways, bus stops, benches and more were enveloped by Fuster’s fanciful imagination: a true artist’s paradise. Today, Fusterlandia is a Cuban gem: his artwork coats the neighborhood in a rainbow of strange, enchanting <a href="https://rumble.com/v30rlt-butterfly-fantasy-drawing-realistic-and-pixel.html" target="_blank">fantasy</a> even though many tourists do not know they can step inside. Tourists are bussed into the neighborhood to admire Fuster’s still-growing kingdom, which has spawned a new generation of artists inspired by the surroundings they came up in.

Balls of Fire Festival in Nejapa, El Salvador. It began in 1922 as a commemoration of a volcano eruption.

“I saw that God is strong. I saw that I was not handicapped. I am just like everyone else. That is what gave me courage again.” His name is Kouame Kouadio Jean-Noel, he is a 30-year-old from Abidjan, the Ivory Coast. He started dancing when he was 15 years old. He decided to take up dancing because he was in love with it. When he was six years old, he went to Adjame to pay his grandmother a visit. There he met a woman who asked him to accompany her to the market. While they were waiting for the bus, she suddenly let go of his hand and started running away, When he ran after her, a bus hit him. This is how he lost his leg. At that time he was too young to feel much discomfort for his situation and in fact, he did not care. He just felt the same as other people who still had both feet. At first, it was not easy for him to get close to people, but after he got used to the adjustments, he was that life is beautiful. Noe Kouame teaches the locals how to dance. “I feel really good. Especially when I am on stage. I am aware If you really want to dance, if you are scared or ashamed, come to me. I will get rid of your shame. Just dance because <a href="https://rumble.com/v4d64a-nuns-perform-priceless-zumba-act.html" target="_blank">dancing</a> is life.” Kouame sends a word of advice to all people, disabled or not: “<a href="https://rumble.com/v3pa3z-meow-wolf-the-art-collective-behind-life-is-beautifuls-art-motel.html" target="_blank">Life is beautiful</a>, it is so sweet, it is us who complicate it.

Harsh winters demand a hot sauna... all within ice walls. Hey Elsa, this sauna was made for you! We all know the concept of sauna understands temperatures so high that make your entire body burst out in tears of sweat. We also know the concept of ice reverses that entire drama, leaving you to feel tiny and shriveled with cold. Now, bring the two together and take your body by surprise. We have heard of hotels made of ice, but how can an ice-block building survive the drama of sauna temperatures higher than 90 degrees Celsius (194 Fahrenheit)? Well, we can turn to the Finns and Russian and ask them what their secret is, because they are the ones who see nothing uncommon in this concept and who keep the best track record of building successful ice saunas, since the beginning of time. The video shows just such a gem of hot and cold body-stunning experienceс. Hidden in Siberia, this ice palace offers its services during the long and hard winters, when the best way to kill some of the long winter days and build an elaborate ice <a href="https://rumble.com/v30nfs-european-sauna-marathon.html" target="_blank">sauna</a>. This sauna is particularly beautiful because the only one-inch-thick ice blocks let you view the landscape outside: Here is one proud Russian couple who shows us how to properly enjoy an ice sauna: They first relax under immense heat, setting off their boy toxins, slapping their bodies with birch branches, then, they run into the cold <a href="https://rumble.com/v4fft3-top-5-embarrassing-winter-olympics-fails.html" target="_blank">winter</a> air of -20 Celsius (-4 Fahrenheit), only in their swimming suits and flip-flops, take an icy dip into a pool, actually, that pool is a cut into the 30 cm thick ice and then repeat the process, over, and over. They just relax and let it go, just like Elsa.

Are you a food lover with a penchant for adventure? Then you should definitely put the world’s coldest village on your bucket list! Yakutsk is considered ‘the North pole of cold’, with temperatures known to hit a record -80 degrees Fahrenheit. Because the soil is terrible for growing plants, the locals feed on fish and meat alone. That is the only thing they sell at the market, frozen solid fish in the form of popsicles that people bring home and eat it raw! Still, the residents of Yakutsk are no strangers to the cold that made the entire <a href="https://rumble.com/v49cml-fishing-market-yakutsk.-now-49c-below-zero..html" target="_blank">fish market</a> a frozen goods aisle! Curious to know what is it that the Siberians sell at the world’s coldest market? The locals are offered stuff like whole rabbits, raw horse liver and horse blood, which is eaten raw or frozen, and freshwater fish, all lined up like delicate icicles. One seller says that at this time of the year, Siberian folk buy Stroganina, which is frozen fish strips. They also sell Nelma, Hucho Taiman, Atlantic Salmon, Broad Whitefish and Muksun, to name a few. Feel like treating yourself? Then definitely try the Siberian Goose, reindeer organs, frozen solid, or moose meat. For the lovers of a good burger, they have Bison heads. Might not fit on a burger patty, but tastes equally juicy. The meat mongers in <a href="https://rumble.com/v4azk7-surviving-the-cold-of-yakutsks-fish-market.html" target="_blank">Yakutsk</a> pride on the fact that they offer the most natural produce and we totally believe them. We just can’t decided which to try first.

Vienna is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. But, if you are interested in taking a walk on the “dark side”, and look into some very ugly architectural blunders, you should take the Vienna Ugly tour with the amazing Eugene Quinn. Eugene is a London-born, Vienna-based urbanist and a rising cultural figure. His projects include #HowtobeAustrian for Oe1, Social Dinners (where refugees dine with locals), Vienna Coffeehouse Conversations and the Vienna Ugly tour. The Vienna Ugly tour is attended both by <a href="https://rumble.com/v3eyhk-tourists-and-locals-develop-taste-for-crocodile-meat-in-thailand.html" target="_blank">tourists and locals</a>. Locals get to explore their own city from an innovative perspective. A walk of beautiful palaces would not interest many of them, but this will. There is a fascination with death, failure and melancholy in Vienna. And the tourists want to see a bit of a perspective different from that shown on postcards and commercials. Through humor, Eugene makes some serious points about the role of the media, city-planners, fashion, gentrification, postmodernism, UNESCO and greedy developers. Attendants are asked to vote on the attractiveness of each building: they need to come on a walk to discover which old or new <a href="https://rumble.com/v3eovr-using-architecture-to-explain-16-mental-illnesses-and-disorders.html" target="_blank">architecture</a> can be considered ugly and why. Some buildings can be both! “Current tours of Vienna focus on the old city. We need new stories to tell. Beauty can be boring – but ugly never is. Only through ugliness can we discover true beauty, and the two have an interesting relationship in Vienna,” says Eugene Quinn.

What you are currently seeing in this video is the first bioluminescent cocktail. The Aponiente Restaurant from Caldiz, Spain just got its 3rd Michelin Star and have recently managed to figure out how to put the natural light from sea <a href="https://rumble.com/v3u3rx-the-glow-in-the-dark-plankton-you-can-keep-at-home.html" target="_blank">plankton</a> into their food and cocktails. “It took five years of research to get where we are now,” says the Executive Chef of Aponiente, Angel Leon. In the culinary world, Angel Leon is often referred to as the “chef of the sea”. He has made waves in high cuisine universe due to his passionate commitment to innovation and sustainable seafood and ground-breaking marine research. He continues: “I was with a fisherman on the beach and I saw this phenomenon. The fishermen called it ‘the candlelight of the sea’. That was the moment my dream started.” Today, Leon farms plankton in tanks. After six months it is freeze-dried and made into a powder. The <a href="https://rumble.com/v309gb-sriracha-shrimp-cocktail-celebrate-new-years-right.html" target="_blank">cocktail</a> is only the beginning. A full tasting menu launches in 2018, in the dark. “Sometimes, even if we cook as good as grandmothers, the guests won’t get the same emotions. In this case, when they see it they get emotional. And that makes the project special.” Leon’s achievements have awarded him a celebrity status in Spain. He is a frequent guest at TV shows and a popular speaker at gastronomic and sustainability conferences. He was also given the Best Chef award in 2013, by the Spanish Royal Academy of Gastronomy.
