Over the course of 6,200 years, the vast marble deposits along the shores of General Carrera Lake located in #Patagonia shared by Argentina and Chile, have been sculpted by the water – resulting in stunning caves, tunnels, and towering columns of pristine marble. The marble closest to the water 💙 surface eroded the quickest as water seeped into tiny cracks, gradually expanding them into larger fractures. This natural wonder has created a mesmerizing marble maze just above the waterline, along with several islands, including the renowned 'marble cathedral' and the 'marble chapel.' 💎 The entire stretch along the shore of General Carrera Lake is dotted with stunning marble caves and islands. If you're looking to explore beyond the usual tourist spots and have some extra time, consider visiting various caves from nearby villages. These excursions typically involve longer boat rides and some rough dirt roads, making them ideal for those in search of a bit more excitement. Don’t forget to glance down from your boat or kayak to admire another breathtaking aspect of the lake: the vibrant blue hue created by glacial meltwater. 📸: © Civitatis English    #BrandStoryAsia #SocialStoriesAsia #TravelStoryAsia #VisitPatagonia #TravelNow #DestinationMarketing #InfluencerMarketing #TravelRepresentation #PublicRelations #BrandManagement #TravelIndustry

LA CANONICA. La Canonica is a unique estate of historical importance. Its stunning location above the Nestore river is peaceful and private, with no light or noise pollution, yet it’s just moments from the nearest village. La Canonica is an incredible place, not only because of its beautiful location on the brow of a hill surrounded by ancient fields and woodland, but also because the property itself has been so carefully restored, revealing unique and interesting details round every corner. The estate is first mentioned in documents dating back to 1750 and from then until the middle of the 19th century the original farmhouse and most of the surrounding land belonged to Saint Peter’s Benedictine Monastery in nearby Perugia. When Italy was unified, the farmland and buildings came under the control of the Fondazione Agraria, an agricultural foundation. The second farmhouse was added at the beginning of the 20th century and La Canonica was a working farm until the last farming family left in 1982, after which it remained empty for many years. La Canonica was listed as an Italian historical heritage building in 2005. The current owners fell in love with the estate and have spent 15 years transforming it, restoring the properties with passion and energy, honouring the integrity of the buildings and the land using local materials and techniques, and renovating in as sustainable a way as possible through reusing and repurposing. The result is a harmonious blending of ancient and modern. The buildings are split into five apartments – three in one building and two in another – with one apartment yet to be finished. Each apartment retains unique original features, such as south-facing arched windows and a 4m-high metal-framed glass door made by a local blacksmith. The apartments have private terraces and beautifully landscaped gardens. A lower terrace hosts a 15m x 5m infinity pool with stunning valley views, perfect for summer stargazing. #dutchlxrybroker #thedutchlxrybroker #italy #italiandream #lxry #luxurylifestyle

Exploring the Beauty of Maltese Cities: The Influence of Limestone and the Potential for a New Palette of Colors 🏚 Malta's urban landscape is defined by the timeless beauty of buildings in shades of beige, thanks to the widespread use of Maltese limestone, a local material that has shaped the island’s architecture for centuries. This limestone is not only abundant and easy to work with but also provides excellent thermal properties, making it ideal for the Mediterranean climate by keeping interiors cool during the hot summers. The soft, neutral hues of limestone do more than just reflect the climate; they also preserve the island's cultural heritage, maintaining a visual identity that sets Malta apart from other destinations. The cohesive aesthetics of cities like Valletta and Marsaskala, with their stone facades in warm sandy tones, create a charming atmosphere that is cherished by both locals and visitors alike. However, as real estate professionals, it is worth reflecting on the potential to incorporate more color in select areas of the city. Introducing small touches of vibrant colors in specific spots could create a special contrast, adding a hint of modernity and vibrancy without compromising the heritage and historical identity that we so deeply value. The beauty of Maltese cities lies in their limestone and the preservation of their cultural legacy. Yet, exploring the possibility of integrating carefully chosen colors in certain spaces could transform these areas into unique and vibrant points of interest, further enriching the visual and emotional experience for those living in and visiting Malta. This approach highlights the balance between honoring the past and innovating with a touch of color, always with respect for the island's unique identity. #RealEstate #Malta #CulturalHeritage #UrbanDesign #MalteseLimestone

The Marinid Tombs, an important historical and architectural site, are in Fes, Morocco. These tombs date back to the Marinid dynasty, which ruled Morocco from the 13th to the 15th centuries and served as the burial place for the sultans and their families. Positioned on a hill overlooking the old city of Fes (Fes el Bali), the tombs offer a panoramic view of the city and its surrounding landscape, making them a popular spot for both visitors to Morocco and locals. Although now mostly in ruins, the tombs exhibit the architectural style of the Marinid period, characterised by intricate stucco work, carved wood, and zellij (mosaic tilework). Despite their deterioration over time, the tombs retain their historical and cultural significance. They stand as a testament to the grandeur and influence of the Marinid dynasty in Moroccan history and are a notable landmark in Fes. Efforts to preserve and maintain the site are ongoing due to its importance as a cultural and historical monument. The tombs provide valuable insight into the architectural and historical heritage of Morocco during the medieval period, making them an important reminder of the country's past and an essential part of Fes's cultural landscape.
