RE: Finish The Story Contest - Week #67! (With the best intentions)
You'd find many Russian buildings reminding you of Italy as many Russian rulers invited Italian architects. For example, Italian architect Aristotle Fioravanti in 1475 built this cathedral inside Kremlin.
As far as natural products is a concern, I am afraid, it's not well everywhere. (
The land of "milk and honey" is obviously a figurative expression and the measure of it is the countries where people try to immigrate. No one wants to immigrate to CUBA, South Korea or Saudi Arabia, but people stand long lines to get to the USA, Canada, Australia and in many European counties. They are not perfect, but they are the best of what is available. )))
Beautiful. That reminds me of Saint Mark Basil in Venice, byzantine style.
No need to point from your end to the fact that's a figurative expression. I was just keeping the allegory going by meaning that those countries might look good but they're plenty of contradictions and social inequality. Mainly pointing to U.S. as a dominant cultural model. Italy is still different, luckly, and offers a good life quality.
Yeah. I've been to Italy and enjoyed my trip tremendously. Milan's Cathedral is so magnificent!
