One of the great wonders of the ancient world, Persepolis embodies not just a grand architectural scheme but also a grand idea. It was conceived by Darius the Great who, in 520 BC, inherited the responsibility for ruling the world's first known empire founded by his predecessor, Cyrus the Great. Embracing tenets such as cultural tolerance and fair treatment of all subjects, Darius sought to reflect these concepts in the design of the magnificent palace complex at Persepolis, inviting architects from the furthest corner of the Persian Empire to contribute to its construction. The result is an eclectic set of structures, including monumental staircases, exquisite reliefs and imposing gateways, that testified to the expanse of Darius' domain.

People visible outside the entrance of the commercial museum known as Palazzo Pitti at Florence in Tuscany, Italy. It's a primarily Renaissance residence dating from 1458 and began as the home of Luca Pitti, a prolific Florentine banker. The Medicis purchased the palace in 1549 and it became the seat of the dynasties of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. Napoleon used the palace as a base in the late 1700s and in 1919 King Victor Emmanuel gave the palace and its contents to the Italian people. Hitler and a Nazi delegation visited Palazzo Pitti and the associated Boboli Gardens for a tour in May 1938 and to attend a concert in October 1940.

Detail of the Arc de Triomphe. The Arc de Triomphe is one of the most famous monuments in Paris, France, standing at the western end of the Champs-Élysées at the centre of Place Charles de Gaulle. The Arc de Triomphe honours those who fought and died for France in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, with the names of all French victories and generals inscribed on its inner and outer surfaces.
