A City Cold Yet Warm at Heart: Moscow

Special Project   [New Ways of Walking Through Cities ⑬] A City Cold Yet Warm at Heart: Moscow   2026.01.05       Famous cities around the world tend to carry images of their own. Paris, the city of romance; New York, the center of popular culture; and Rome, often regarded as the very heart of ancient European culture?each city’s name becomes an icon and an object of aspiration. In this way, Moscow, the capital of Russia, the largest country in the world, has long been perceived as the center of the “Iron Curtain.” The term “Iron Curtain,” used during World War II by Nazi propaganda minister Paul Joseph Goebbels, referred to the closed nature of the Soviet Union and the communist states of Eastern Europe at the time.

The Global Hub of Culture and the Arts: London

Special Project   [New Ways of Walking Through Cities ⑫] The Global Hub of Culture and the Arts: London   2025.12.01       Once called “the empire on which the sun never sets,” Britain has seen its tangible influence fade over the two centuries since its golden age in the 19th and 20th centuries, yet its symbolic power remains intact. London, a city that still holds the historical and cultural legacy built during the days of the British Empire, exemplifies this most clearly. This is why tracing the history of London back to its beginnings as the Roman fortress of Londinium is no easy task, for the meanings contained within its past are countless. London is also a city inseparable from one of humanity’s most significant milestones - the Industrial Revolution.During the Industrial Revolution, London was one of the fastest-growing cities in the world in terms of population. Its population, whic...
