The old world
1900 — 1930
Horse carts, first trams, market squares and the very first photographers walking these streets.

1950 — 1965
Cafés reopen, boulevards fill again, and the city learns to celebrate in public.
Chapter 3
Neon decades

Cassette shops, bright signage, crowded buses and the first skyline cranes.
Chapter 4
Millennium
2000 — 2010

Chapter 5
The shared city
2011 — 2020
Rooftop bars, specialty coffee, weekend markets and the rise of the local guide.
Chapter 6
