Immortalisé par l'auteure de romans policiers Agatha Christie, l'Orient Express est cristallisé dans l'imagination du public comme un train au glamour et au mystère légendaires. Alors qu'un luxueux reboot se profile à l'horizon, il convient de faire quelques mises au point. L'Orient Express est en fait apparu sous de nombreuses formes au cours de ses 140 ans d'histoire.

As with many European port-cities, Porto has a colourful history. Initially a small settlement of Celtic tribes, centuries of maritime trade brought Romans, Visigoths, and Moors before falling under the rule of Portugal when the city became - like the wine that followed - fortified. Commercial success with wine, textile and salt exports saw investment and infrastructure in the mid to late Middle Ages resulting in a number of impressive buildings and a charming network of winding streets flanked by colourful apartments. Gastronomy is a route, arguably the finest, into understanding this history...

Kenneth Grange was the very definition of a renaissance man. Over his 70-year career he designed hundreds of products for dozens of global brands. He was such a prolific designer...

There are few ways to better know a destination than by witnessing its national sport. In Türkiye, this means watching kispet-clad, olive oil-soaked wrestlers (or Pehlivan) grapple for supremacy in a ring. This year, after nearly an hour of intense grappling with his opponent under the blazing sun, Türkiye's “Tireless Wrestler” was crowned the winner of the 663rd Kirkpinar Oil Wrestling Championships. Yusuf Can Zeybek, from the Mediterranean province of Antalya, retained the title he won last year in a contest said to date back to the 14th century. The 30-year-old, who takes his moniker from t...

Für diejenigen, die an die Kraft der Kultur glauben, ist die UNESCO-Initiative Creative Cities Network (UCCN) vielleicht das Aufregendste, was sie je gehört haben. Die Idee klingt einfach.

Das Netzwerk wurde 2004 gegründet, um die internationale Zusammenarbeit zu fördern und Kultur und Kreativität als Motor für eine nachhaltige Stadtentwicklung zu nutzen. Seit Edinburgh 2...

But it's complicated. The network was established in 2004 to foster international cooperation and use culture and creativity as a driver for sustainable urban development. Since Edinburgh kicked off the programme in 2004 as a City...
