Italy, by Oriol Gebellí


The capital of Italy is Roma.

The highest mountain in Italy is Monte Bianco. It is 4.808 m high.

The longest river in Italy is the Po. It is 652 km long.

I think the most amazing construction in Italy is the Tower of Pisa.

Egypt, by Laura


Egypt is in Africa. The capital of Egypt is Cairo.

The most amazing constructions in Egypt are the pyramids.

The highest pyramid in Egypt is the Great Pyramid of Giza or pyramid of Cheops. It is 146,58 metres high.

The longest river in Egypt is the river Nile. It is 6.671 kilometres long.

Egypt is very interesting.

Iceland, by Anna Escoda


The capital of Iceland is Reykjavík. It is the biggest city in Iceland.


The highest mountain is Hvannadalshnúkur. It is about 2110 metres high.


The longest river is the Thjórsa. It is about 237 metres long.


I think the most amazing construction in Iceland is thingvelling, the old parliament and now a National Park.
