Architecture

The Wall is not a continuous structure.

The first unveiling of the monument took place on October 12, 1931, by lighting designer Guglielmo Marconi.

Because of the extreme precision with which the structure was built, many pseudo-scientific myths have grown up around it.

There is a copy of the Statue in Paris, France, four times smaller than the original and reaching 11.5 meters in height.

The collections of the Palace Museum are based on the imperial collection of the Qing Dynasty. They include paintings, ceramics, seals, steles, sculptures, inscribed ware, bronze ware, enamel ware, etc.

Electric lighting at the Palais Garnier was installed in 1881.

The crown of the Statue is decorated with seven rays.

Hagia Sophia is famous for the light that reflects everywhere inside the nave, giving the dome the appearance of floating above.

In 2015-2016, the Spanish Steps underwent a restoration.

To get to the top floor (102nd), you have to climb 1860 stairs.
