Goa is India‘s smallest state.
It is located on India's southern coast.
The state of Goa has a total size of 3,702 square kilometers (1,429 square miles).
As of 2021, it had a population of 1.6 million people, making it India's fourth-smallest state by population.
The capital of Goa is Panaji. It is located in the Tiswadi sub-district on the shores of the Mandovi River estuary. Panaji is Goa's largest urban agglomeration, with a population of 1 lakh 20,000 in the metropolitan region.
The 105-kilometer coastline of mainland Goa is characterized by sandy beaches, estuaries, and promontories.
Low, forested plateaus blend with the Western Ghats' wooded slopes in the interior, which climb to over 1,220 metres on the state's eastern border.
The Mandavi and the Zuvari are the two major rivers, with the island of Goa lying between their mouths (Ilhas). The island is triangular in shape, with the apex (known as the cape) being a rocky headland that divides Goa's harbour into two anchorages. Although Goa's history extends back to prehistoric times, the current state of Goa was only created in 1987. Despite being India's smallest state in terms of land, Goa has a vast and varied history. It has many parallels to Indian history, particularly in terms of colonial influences and a multi-cultural aesthetic.
The Usgalimal rock engravings, which date from the upper palaeolithic or mesolithic periods, show some of India's oldest signs of human settlement. During the Iron Age, the Mauryan and Satavahana Empires ruled over modern-day Goa.
Goa was ruled by the Kadamba dynasty, Vijayanagara Empire, Bahmani Sultanate, and Bijapur Sultanate during the medieval period.
In 1510, the Portuguese invaded Goa and defeated the Sultanate of Bijapur. The Portuguese occupation lasted approximately 450 years and had a significant impact on Goan culture, food, and architecture.

The Origins of Meteora Monasteries in Greece
Meteora is a one-of-a-kind location in Greece, if not the entire world. The surrounding area is littered with enormous rock formations. These rocks have been there for millions of years. Wind, rain, and other natural processes altered them further through time.
From the 11th century onwards, monks settled on these 'columns of the sky' in a region of nearly impassable sandstone hills. Twenty-four of these monasteries were founded during the remarkable rebirth of the eremetic ideal in the 15th century, despite immense challenges. Their frescoes from the 16th century indicate a turning point in the evolution of post-Byzantine painting.
Today, visitors can visit six Meteora monasteries standing atop massive cliffs. Serene, spiritual, magical, mystical, astonishing, breathtaking, vast, inspiring, and impressive are all words that come to mind while thinking of this place. These are only a few of the terms that people frequently use to characterise the monasteries of Meteora. Even if your interests aren't religious, you should go to Meteora. It is the only way to deepen the spirituality that this area already emanates, regardless of how long or short your stay in our lovely land.

Aleppo, one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities, contains relics from more than four millennia of Near Eastern history. Aleppo's Citadel is a highly interwoven microcosm of the city's long and complicated history. The Ayyubids built the majority of the structures on the citadel in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, but there are also significant structures during the Ottoman period. The citadel was constructed on a natural limestone outcropping that rose 100 feet above the plain below.
Its lofty walls, majestic entry bridge, and massive gateway are all still standing and dominate the city's skyline. A series of invasions, earthquakes, and natural corrosion caused by exposure to the elements have harmed the fabric of the citadel's inner areas within its walls. Significant remnants of a Bronze Age neo-Hittite temple, in use for the majority of the third and second millennia B.C., were recently discovered during excavations. The temple is embellished with a complex system of reliefs that represent deities and exotic creatures and are an important addition to Syria's historical record.

The Gherkin London: History of London’s Newest Iconic Building
The Gherkin is one of London's most fascinating-looking structures, with its unusual shape dotting the London skyline. In 1992, an explosion rocked London's financial area, kicking off the development of the Gherkin. The Provisional IRA set off an explosive device near the Baltic Exchange, severely damaging the structure. The structure was demolished, and a larger tower was built in its place by local officials. The Gherkin originated as a much grander structure known as the "Millennium Tower," which never materialized. The building's original design generated concerns that it might significantly disrupt Heathrow aviation traffic. Concerns were also raised that it would obstruct views of St. Paul's Dome from certain parts of the city. Norman Foster created the scaled-down version that now stands at 30 St Mary Axe after the original design was rejected. The Gherkin's construction began in 2001 and was completed in December of 2003. It didn't open to the public for almost a year after that. During the early stages of building, the grave of a young Roman girl was unearthed. The girl was kept at the Museum of London throughout construction and then reburied at the base of the tower after it was finished. One of London's most well-known skyscrapers is 30 St Mary Axe, also known as The Gherkin. It has gained a prized position in the hearts of Londoners and among the enduring icons of Buckingham Palace, as cool as a cucumber and uniquely formed. Because of its likeness to that particular cuisine, it is known as "The Gherkin." A bar for workers and their visitors is located on the top floor – the 40th, in fact – and offers a panoramic view of London. The Gherkin isn't normally open to the public but you can visit Helix restaurant and Iris bar, which are located on the top floors and have amazing panoramic views across the City of London. You can also step inside the iconic building during special events such as Open House London. They are noted for their inventive design style, which contrasts sharply with the more conventional aspect of typical London structures. The Gherkin is essentially a curving, elongated shaft with a rounded end that looks like a stretched egg. Its high-capacity lifts can transport 378 passengers at a time at speeds of 6 meters per second.
At the summit of the building, one of London's highest lounge bars and restaurants is located, which, at 180 meters, is higher than any of The Shard's or 20 Fenchurch Street's offerings.
The Gherkin has 24,000 square meters of external glass, which is the equivalent of five football fields. Gherkin is over three times the height of Niagara Falls. The Gherkin's maximum circumference is only two meters shorter than the building's height. A big window came off of the skyscraper and dropped 28 stories to the earth in April 2005, sparking extensive inspections and raising concerns about the tower's long-term viability

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, Italy
The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a mediaeval structure in Pisa, Italy, known for the shifting of its foundations, which had caused it to lean roughly 15 feet (4.5 metres) from the perpendicular by the late twentieth century. Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles) in Pisa, Italy, is located near to the Cathedral of Pisa.
One of Italy's most well-known landmarks is also one of its most vulnerable. It began sinking into the ground five years after construction began in 1173 as a bell tower for Pisa's cathedral and baptistery.
Inside the Tower, there isn't a single item! From bottom to top, it's essentially a hollow cylinder.
The leaning of the tower was not intended. The structure began to lean towards its southern side as a result of construction miscalculations. The foundation is composed of lime and sits in a circular pitch that is 5 feet deep.
The tower's designer, engineer Bonnano Pisano, attempted to fix the problem by simply curling it higher as construction continued. On the north side, they raised the pillars on the third and eighth levels.
The tower was designed to last at least 200 years, according to the engineers. The Leaning Tower of Pisa does not topple in the end because its centre of gravity is properly maintained within its foundation.
The Leaning Tower of Pisa is famous for its perilous tilt, but researchers have discovered that it is gradually going straight. The tower's Surveillance Group, which oversees restoration efforts, stated that the structure is "stable and slowly reducing its lean."
For all these years, something called dynamic soil-structure interaction, or DSSI, has kept the Tower upright. The Tower's height, the hardness of the marble it's composed of, and the soft soil it's built on all contribute to DSSI. These components work together to keep the tower from swaying during earthquakes.
