Milan Cathedral, called Duomo di Milano in Italian, is a vast Gothic-style cathedral, located in the heart of Milan. It is 515 ft (157 metres) long and 302 ft (92 m) wide. It can house up to 40.000 people. Il Duomo di Milano is one of the largest Catholic churches in the world. The construction of Milan Cathedral began in 1386, which coincided with Gian Galeazzo Visconti coming into power. The purpose of this impressive construction was to modernize the area and to celebrate the expansion of the Visconti territory. The Cathedral took five centuries to complete. During this time, various architects, sculptors and artists contributed to the famous construction program known as the “Fabbrica del Duomo”. The result was an impressive and unique piece of architecture, which merged the international Gothic style with the Lombard Romanesque style.
С учетом всех декораторских работ строительство осуществлялось 579 лет. Мало какие сооружения могут похвастаться столь серьезным и длительным подходом к созданию уникального произведения искусства. В массивной церкви может вместиться около 40 000 человек. Если взглянуть на здание с высоты птичьего полета, то станет ясно, что оно напоминает католический крест, у которого вертикаль составляет 158 м, а горизонтальный неф – 92 м. Наивысшая точка собора – шпиль, украшенный статуей Девы Марии, высота самого высокого шпиля – 106 м.
In central part of Historical Boulevard there stands the Panorama “Defense of Sevastopol 1854-1855” – the world-famous monument to national feat of arms, our national pride. One episode of the 349-day long Defense of Sevastopol is depicted there – the day when defenders repulsed the assault on 18 June 1855. The author of this epic pictorial canvas, Franz Roubaud, was a full member of St. Petersburg Academy of Fine Arts and founder of Russian panoramic art. The Panorama was unveiled for visitors on 14 May 1905 and was stored in a specially designed circular building, built under design by military engineer Friedrich Oskar Enberg and architect Valentin Feldman. Of exquisite beauty is the classical two-column portal of the Panorama’s building, plated with Inkerman limestone and with its upper part decorated with elements of military insignia – the soldier’s St. George Cross, interlaced by a St. George Ribbon with number “349” denoting the numbers of days the Defense lasted.
Музей-панорама «Оборона Севастополя» — это один из крупнейших музеев данного типа в мире. Только сама картина имеет потрясающие размеры — длину 115 метров и высоту 14 метров, не считая той уникальной композиции, что расположена перед ней, и придающая всему, что видят глаза зрителей, полную иллюзию реальности происходящего.
Огромное полотно для панорамы «Оборона Севастополя 1854-1855 года» была написана французским художником Францем Рубо, с большим трудом спасена во время Великой Отечественной Войны и восстановлена уже после нее, коллективом советских художников, которые существенно ее доработали, добавив немало интересных деталей.
Попадая в Севастопольскую панораму, зрители видят утро 6 июня 1855 года, одного из дней битвы за Севастополь, когда, во время Крымской войны, 75-тысячную русскую армию атаковало 173-тысячное англо-французско-турецкое войско. Зритель словно бы обозревает окрестности с Малахова кургана — самой высокой точки города, где был расположен один из восьми севастопольских бастионов.

Turf roofs are traditional Scandinavian living roofs. They're fairly common throughout the Faroe Islands, and you can even find them in the middle of the bigger towns as well. Overall though, there's a mix of traditional turf houses and houses with more modern construction techniques.
There are a number of environmental and cost benefits to having a turf house, such as reduced heating costs and longer lifespan of the roof overall. From a practical standpoint though, you now have to maintain your roof more so than modern roofs. They are however, quite cool to look at.

El edificio que se contempla es el resultado final de la restauración requerida por el rey Enrique IV de Castilla en 1465 sobre una fábrica anterior del siglo XIV
The structure was covered with white and pink marble from the Candoglia quarry in Val D’Ossola. The Cathedral’s roof is covered in openwork pinnacles and spires crowned with sculptures that overlook the city.
Фасад здания, его шпили и внутренние помещения, украшены невообразимым числом статуй – 3400. В это число входят изображения исторических личностей, святых, мучеников, пророков и прочих библейских персонажей. Не обошлось и без верных символов средневековья – горгулий и химер. Они, как верные атрибуты готики, угнездились на стенах здания, отгоняя нечисть. Среди наружной отделки здания попадаются весьма любопытные экземпляры, например, изображение Муссолини или же древний прототип статуи Свободы, что ныне стоит в США.

Szék is an island of Hungarian ethnicity in central Transylvania (Romania). The town received its name in the Middle Ages from the local salt mines (szik in the old language means salt).
The Szék community managed to preserve its unique folk traditions, distinctive styles of music, dance, embroidery, and costume through the centuries. Many of the older villagers still wear their traditional costume as they go about their everyday life
