Originally it was a Viking fishing village founded in the 10th century. Nowadays is the cultural, economic and governmental centre of Denmark.

17. Paris, France

Paris, France

I was in Paris 8 years ago but that time I wasn't collecting flip flops so I wasn't searching. This one I got 2 years ago from my friends from school. They were in Paris for a student exchange. When they came back, they told me that they hadn't anything for me but when I walked to the classroom I spotted this magnet on my desk. I'm really glad that I have flip flop from France, I really love this country and la langue française. I don't have to explain what we can see at this flip flop, everybody knows Eiffel Tower. This magnet starts new design of flip flops - metal magnets with flower. I already have three of this kind so I will show you.

16. Batumi, Georgia

Batumi, Georgia

My first flip flop from Georgia and first double flip flop as well. I got it from friend of my parents. He has found it at the airport in Georgia. He has spotted him at the exhibition but the souvenir shop was closed because it was middle of the night. He was walking outside this shop, even security guard was interested why that man looked so desperate. And then, after 30 minutes of waiting, a girl from the shop has opened it and he could buy flip flop for me. It's one of the most original magnets on my fridge and only one from this country. Georgia is a sovereign state in the Caucasus region of Eurasia. Located at the crossroads of Western Asia and Eastern Europe, it is bounded to the west by the Black Sea, to the north by Russia, to the south by Turkey and Armenia, and to the southeast by Azerbaijan. The capital of Georgia is Tbilisi but this flip flop cames from Batumi. It's a seaside city on the Black Sea coast,one of the main port cities of Georgia. The tower on this flip flop is called Piazza. It's the visiting-card of Batumi, local peoples and tourists favourite place of meeting. Batumi Piazza is a hotel which was built in 2009 in Old Batumi. Batumi's skyline has been transformed since 2007 with remarkable buildings and monuments of contemporary architecture.

Historically this island was famous worldwide for the Colossus of Rhodes (that gold monument on this flip flop) which was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

One more flip flop from Turkey but the first one from my friend P. Marmaris is a tourist resort on the Mediterranean coast, located in southwest Turkey, along the shoreline of the Turkish Riviera.
