he's somewhat right tho, the aesthetics of the built environment do effect the mood and life quality of the local population

Less, but it's not a healing as proper classical architecture

My God that place must have been totally disgusting in the 19th century.

It's so unbelievably tall. Imagine a city as congested as New York where all the buildings are that tall.
Lucas Kelly
huge cities are nothing but dens of sin and cultural decay
Kayden Torres
yes it used to be more dense but it's because Manhattan is not really "residental" anymore
actually a lot of places used to have a higher population density
even Paris, which is still extremely dense today, used to be even more densely populated
Lucas Hughes
A lack of money and too much modernism
Eli Gray
villages are nothing other than depression and no cultural activities

you're right, it would be so much better if they were all drunk, half-naked, and crammed into a dark warehouse listening to generic house music and grinding on each other like people do in every big city

This is the burgerzaal. It has nothing to do with hamburgers or Americans of course. Just with the continents etc.
John Foster
opinions on Dubai?
Gavin Perez
French qt villages are the best
Charles Johnson
it has the exact proportions of a roman basilica. It has Atlas in it. There are maps of the world on the floor. 2d globes to be exactly. You can see justitia on the first picture with behaviours around it. I have chosen the following picture, because I like the curves in the building. Around these curves you can the four elements

I fucking envy your cathedrals
We have nothing like this here in Poland, our gothic churches look like some cheap attempts
John Kelly
How many French people live there. I can imagine that a lot of rich Russians, Sheiks, Chinese people and Japanese people want to buy these houses. Homestly, I'd not mind to live there too, if there were just fewer tourists.
Ayden Baker
So are you Polish or Korean ? I wonder everytime Well I know someone who went to Poland and told me that sometimes there are towns that look bad (poor mostly) but the church is always perfect, in great shape, with beautiful gold paintings inside while the houses around are cracked, at least people there value more these kind of buildings I guess
Official population is 41, kek. Honestly I don't think many foreigners live there, most of these houses must be passed down in families. However there are a lot of them in places like Provence or South-West, in Dordogne there's a village with more Brits than French. I don't really mind, they bring money and most of them learn the language
Aaron Williams
Nice clear sky today.
Ethan Long
lel I'm full Polish
>but the church is always perfect, in great shape, with beautiful gold paintings inside while the houses around are cracked, at least people there value more these kind of buildings I guess Most of the churches in Poland are in good shape I think but their very design is really lacking imo atleast in comparison to the French marvels.
Austin Garcia
>Homestly, I'd not mind to live there too, if there were just fewer tourists.
Luckily (as long as you have money) there are still a lot of beautiful preserved villages that are unknown to foreigners, in place like the Massif Central for instance that aren't popular among non-French
Julian Roberts
Well speaking of bridge the Viaduc de Millau looks rad at night
Liam Young
I would love to go there. But how badly do you consider Dutch people as foreigners. And if you may wonder, I speak the language.

This is what a not completely destroyed town looks like (Würzberg), thoughts?

This is peaceful Zagreb street in middle of transformation into a Herzegovina-Bosnian version of Athens. Be amazed

I gotta admit Gothic architecture doesn't fuck around
Isaac Walker
A german town, I meant
Carson Jones
Looks cheap tbqh
Oliver Butler
Awesome, they look like giant futuristic pylons.
Wyatt Moore
>how badly do you consider Dutch people as foreigners
I don't think people in these kind of places have bad prejudices against foreigners. In very touristic villages maybe, like the Mont Saint Michel or in Provence villages, because they see a lot of people. But otherwise as long as you speak French it's fine. In some places there is some redneck mentality, but it's not deep-America redneck (no offense)
Aiden Bennett
reeeIt looks absolutely lovely
Logan Morales
It's pretty fucking big tb.h And here's the opposite ayy
