If architecture is your thing, Budapest belongs at the top of your travel list. It's easily one of Europe's most beautiful cities. 🇭🇺

Utrecht, the Netherlands

One of the finest cities to live in

📍Florence, Italy 🇮🇹

Florence is already one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

But at golden hour it is magical ✨

Humboldtforum: In the reconstructed palais in Berlin is an exhibition about the Palast der Republik, which was built on top of the ruins of the Berlin palais.
Not only do they show the history of the controversal soviet building but also the discussion about rebuilding the palais

The most uplifting architectural revival happening today is in Budapest.

The city is reclaiming its identity after decades of communist rule.

Here's what's going on... (thread) 🧵
