Sur le côté nord de Victoria Street, une terrasse de niveau supérieur a été construite. Un petit escalier à mi-hauteur de la rue relie l’ancien au nouveau et préserve l’ancien lien entre Grassmarket et Castlehill. La terrasse continuait vers le pont George IV soutenu par une série d’arches qui fournirent plus tard de l’espace pour l’installation des boutiques dans les arcades.
On the north side of Victoria Street an upper level terrace has been constructed. A small staircase halfway up the street connects old with new and preserves the ancient link between Grassmarket and Castlehill. The terrace continued towards the George IV Bridge supported by a series of arches which later provided space for the installation of shops in the arcades.

Rievaulx Terrace is a site located in the North York Moors National Park, in North Yorkshire, England, overlooking Rievaulx Abbey and owned by the National Trust.
At one end stands the Ionic Temple, inspired by the Temple of Fortuna Virilis in Rome. It was intended as a banqueting house and the central table is still set as if for a meal. It is decorated with elaborate ceiling paintings and is furnished in the period style. The basement housed the kitchen and living quarters and nowadays it holds an exhibition on English landscape design in the 18th century

Yuanyang Rice Terraces, located on the southern slopes of Ailao Mountain in Yuanyang County (part of Honghe Hani Autonomous Prefecture) and located in the south of Yunnan Province has been a masterpiece of the ingenuity of the Hani people for generations. Southern Ailao Mountain, with this typical tiered landscape, is famed for its unique frontier scenery.
The Hani people's ancestors came to this steep mountain area 2,500 years ago. In their struggle against the difficult terrain they successfully established the terraces, where they grew rice in order to make a living. The technology of developing fertile land on rugged mountain slopes didn't spread all over China and Southeast Asia until 14th century. The creativity of the Hani people turned this mountain area into one of artistic beauty. In recognition, the Ming Dynasty emperor granted the title of 'Skillful Sculptor' to Hani people and their good reputation was passed down from generation to generation. At present, known as 'land sculpture' the terraced fields have been being officially acknowledged by UNESCO as a World Cultural and Natural Heritage site.

Terrace seats? It's not that stylish. It's just a man drinking alone at the storefront. This is also a preventive measure.
