One of the most beautiful cities in the world was founded 1604 years ago today - thread🧵

1. Venice at sunset Image
2. According to the Chronicon Altinate, one of the oldest sources on Venice's history, today marks the city's 1604th birthday.

Tradition links its founding to the dedication of San Giacomo church, said to have occurred at noon on 25 March 421.

3. The iconic capital of Italy's Veneto region is a unique city built on 127 islands connected by 472 bridges and a network of iconic canals, earning it the nickname "City of Bridges."

The name is derived from the Veneti people who inhabited the region by the 10th century BC. Image

The most beautiful ceilings on Earth 🧵

1. Sainte-Chapelle, Paris (13th century) Image
2. The Sistine Chapel, Vatican City

Michelangelo painted this magnificent ceiling between 1508 and 1512.

As Goethe put it, "without having seen the Sistine Chapel one can form no appreciable idea of what one man is capable of achieving."

3. A real picture of the ceiling of the Sagrada Família

Designed by Antoni Gaudí, it is the largest unfinished Catholic church in the world.

Art critic Rainer Zerbst said "it's probably impossible to find a church building anything like it in the entire history of art." Image

Cherry blossoms in Japan 🧵

1. A tunnel of sakura-shaped bulbs in Mie An illuminated tunnel with thousands of sakura-shaped bulbs in Mie, Japan. 📸 godive2000
2. Kawagoe, Saitama

Sakura typically refers to the flowers of ornamental cherry trees, rather than those cultivated for their fruit.

It is Japan's national flower and plays a key role in the tradition of hanami. 📸 Tadahisa Hagiwara
3. Hanami is a cherished Japanese tradition that celebrates the ephemeral beauty of cherry (sakura) and plum (ume) blossoms, typically from late March to early May.

In modern-day Japan, it mostly consists of having an outdoor party beneath the sakura during daytime or at night. Image

Italy's most stunning fountains - a thread 🧵

2. Trevi Fountain

The Aqua Virgo, built by Agrippa in 19 BC, still supplies water to the fountain more than two millennia later.

Designed by Nicola Salvi and completed by Giuseppe Pannini in 1762, this Baroque marvel is one of the most iconic fountains in the world. Image
3. The Praetorian Fountain, Palermo

Originally built in 1544 in Florence by Francesco Camilliani, it was sold, relocated, and reassembled in Sicily in 1574.
