【推荐2】The Anne Frank House opened on 3 May, 1960 and over the years attracted a growing number of visitors to see the diary place. Last year visitor number reached 1.25 million and long lines were commonly seen outside the museum.

What you can see

You can go to the Diary Room at the back of the house through a door hidden by a bookshelf. Here you will see Anne's diary in addition to some of her other books.

The film Reflections in the central hall shows what Anne Frank's diary and life story meant to 22 writers, actors, visitors and people who knew Anne.

A new audio tour is added. It is especially suitable for children aged from about 10 years. With their own headset, each visitor can have a quieter tour in the museum. The audio tour provides services in 9 languages: Dutch, English, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese and Spanish.

Important information for Anne Frank House tour

Tips for visitors

Lines can get very long in summer. Visiting it when it opens or shortly before it closes is usually the best way to beat the lines. It takes about an hour to see everything so you don't have to put aside a huge part of your day for this.

There are no official tours, but all things are written in English as well as Dutch. Visitors can buy a 30-minute audio(only in English)media to get the necessary background knowledge before the tour.

【推荐3】Food Festivals Around the World

Stilton Cheese Rolling

May Day is a traditional day for celebrations, but the 2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans. Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes, roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors’ lane. Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly, but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). All the competitors are served with beer or port wine, the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese.

Fiery Foods Festival — The Hottest Festival on Earth

Every year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction-food that is not just spicy, but hot enough to make your mouth burn, your head spin and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three days every March. You might like to try a chocolate-covered habanero pepper — officially the hottest pepper in the world—or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing’s for sure—if you don’t like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn’t for you!

La Tomatina — The World’s Biggest Food Fight

On the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Bunol hosts La Tomatina-the world’s largest food fight. A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week’s events. The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes — official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.

The battle lasts little more than half an hour in which time around 50, 000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves, runs, or fights back. Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again — and for a much-needed wash!

Fetch Eyewear and the Pixie Project

In 2004, Ann Sacks founded Fetch Eyewear, a company that sells stylish frames at affordable prices. Three years later, she launched the Pixie Project — a nonprofit project that offers free and low⁃cost treatment for animal diseases and injuries and rescues pets from overloaded (超负荷的) shelters across the country — and 100 percent of Fetch’s profits now benefit the charity. So far, the two organizations have helped with more than 5,000 pet adoptions and about 1,000 surgery (外科手术).

Fur for the Animals

Fur for the Animals, run by the animal advocacy group Born Free USA, is a campaign (open through December 31) that collects unwanted furs and donates them to wildlife rehabilitation (康复) centers.
