Wow, that is one AWESOME tree!

A beautiful home, both then and now.

You would never have thought that nature would completely cover a Colosseum to that extent. You can almost hear the roars of the crowds and imagine scenes from a different world..

The house next to me is a 1920 Sears house. They also came with 2 trees. Type depended on where the house went. Here, in PA, the came with a maple and an oak. The maple is still outside the front door.

Beautiful!

Mesmerizing

i love how the photo was edited

To this day, the position of the wall is marked on the ground all the way from one end to the other. By the more noteworthy places there are information boards. If you ever go to Berlin and want to get a broader picture of the town, I recommend a Berlin Wall hike - take public transport to one end of the Berlin Wall (Memorial or East Side Gallery), then follow the line on the ground all the way to the other end. Takes you to all kinds of places, from famous landmarks to back alleys. It's a day trip, but if you don't mind walking and love to explore for the sake of exploring, it's really worth it.

from the air it looks so peaceful now

I’d love to visit.

... And the ugly buildings coming up behind it.

The first photo is what claustrophobic people wished it looked like in the second photo

Look at all the "topolino" cars 🤗

Wow, StreetView was around in 1888. LOL

I'm a simple person. I see the Netherlands, I upvote.

scary

Same colours too !

That is literally the nearest you'll get to a time machine. I love this..

That's so ace.

I continue to be amazed on how Germans rebuild their country after the war.

You can actually see where some parts of the falls have worn away in 115 years. Not a huge amount, but noticeable if you look close enough.

That will buff out.

Even the clouds are the same! ;)

You can walk the walls surrounding the city centre and every so often there is a visitors book. Hundreds of years of vibrant history in every nook and cranny and my brother in-law wrote, and I quote "very nice!"

It's easy to criticise the London Underground, e.g. why isn't it running 24 hours a day in this day and age? So it's worth being reminded just how old it is and what the expectations were when it was built. It doesn't have double tracks, so one can keep the service running while the other is being maintained at night, because no one in 1863 anticipated hoards of people wanting to travel around London at 3.30am

This is truly beautiful.

What a pity

Love Edinburgh

It was originally built as a star gate, but it was later converted to a bridge

Glad they removed all the advertising crap.

So happy they kept the electric trolleys, instead of converting to stinky busses.

Second picture needs the palm trees from the first picture.

Planting those trees really paid off.

How did they get the stones on top of the others?

in all the photos it never really occured to me how much space they actually needed because it's covered by people. woodstock is legendary for good reason

That's an awfully good photograph for 1880!

Really cool and well made!

This one really makes me sad 😢
