This superbly illustrated book takes you on a world trip through the medieval town centers of Europe, to the bazaars of the Orient, and the skyscrapers of the modern western world. One hundred special towns and cities are included in the journey: Paris with its chic boulevards, dreamy Marrakech, the eternal city of Rome, but also multicultural London, the melting pot of Cairo, Florence-the city of art-and Buenos Aires-Home of the tango.
In spite of the enormous differences between these 100 towns and cities, they all have one thing in common. Each of them bears the indielibel character of its people and their history. It is the combination of magnificent architecture created by former rulers, the temples nad church towers together with the narrow alleys of the old city centers, and the colorful life along their grand avenues that imparts the special atmosphere that make these place a magnet for those who admire culture and beauty.
