Turkey , Istanbul, Dolmabahce Palace
Dolmabahce Palace is Turkey's most famous palace for its luxury, with a stunning 600 m—long facade overlooking the Bosphorus. The white marble Rococo palace was built under Sultan Abdul-Majid in 1834, when the Topkapi Palace finally bored him and he wanted to change.
Dolmabahce Palace is perfectly visible from the Bosphorus. The length of the building is about 600 meters. The palace is simply huge! There are 285 rooms here. The official premises, the women's and men's half are connected under one roof. It took about 14 tons of gold to decorate the palace.
Its appearance has nothing to do with the culture of the Ottomans, it is designed in Rococo and Baroque style. The palace served as the residence of six sultans, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk lived and died here.

Pompeii is a city frozen in time. It was destroyed by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79. The eruption had been going on for two days when, due to a sudden change in the wind, a giant cloud of burning ash fell on the city, and it happened completely unexpectedly - most of the residents were caught off guard.
By an evil irony of fate, it was a terrible cataclysm that allowed us to see ancient life so clearly. Volcanic ash and stones that covered the city with a layer of several meters after the eruption allowed the ancient buildings to survive to this day. Even the flowers in the garden left clear prints in the ashes, as well as water droplets from the cooling system in the atrium. In some rooms, it was possible to find amazing, almost intact frescoes.

Italy 🇮🇹, Milan
Visitors to the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium, also known as the San Siro, descend down a spiral staircase on one of the side towers. When looking at the staircase, it seems that it is rotating.
But in fact, the ladder is not moving. This visual effect is created due to the large number of people moving down the stairs in one direction. The result is an impressive optical illusion!
And what do you see? Does it seem to you that it rotates or not?

Vietnam 🇻🇳, Fangshan Mountain
Fangshan is a mountain located in the Vietnamese province of Lao Cai, 19 km from the city of Shapa. It is the highest peak of Indochina, its peak has a height of 3143 meters.
Climbing Fangshan can be difficult due to high humidity, low temperatures of the northern province and dense thickets. Previously, before there was a cable car, hiking up the mountain was an achievement that felt like a feat that not everyone could accomplish.
Now, you can climb to the top by cable car, which was launched in 2016. In any case, the trip will be unforgettable: acquaintance with the rich flora of the mountain slopes, beautiful surrounding landscapes from its heights.
