Great Cities of the World: The Most Iconic Places on Our Planet You Must Visit
39.99 €
Our planet is home to countless places where key historical turning points occurred, where ideas were born, empires were built, styles that defined entire eras emerged, and where the most famous people we read about in textbooks today lived. The significance of such cities lies not only in their scale but also in the depth of their cultural imprint.
This book is an invitation to a stroll through the Great Cities of our planet—from the cobbled streets of Vienna to the glittering lights of Seoul, from the colorful markets of Cairo to the vibrant carnivals of Rio de Janeiro, from the countless canals of Venice to the majestic skyscrapers of New York...
Did you know that:
• Prague is called the capital of alchemy and magic, and there is also a museum dedicated to wizards.
• The Forbidden City in Beijing is the largest palace complex in the world. • In Zurich, you can have coffee in the same café where Lenin read newspapers and Jung discussed psychology.
• The Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro is so large that it is regularly struck by lightning.
• In Santiago, Chile, at the Museum of Pre-Columbian Art, you can see mummies that are older than those in Egypt.
All this and more – on the pages of a book about great cities.
