Beaujolais Nouveau Day - Paris

Beaujolais Nouveau Day - Paris

Celebrated annually on the third Thursday of November, this year's Beaujolais Nouveau Day falls on November 21. Beloved by many, looked at askance by a few, this Gamay-based vin primeur has seen an increase in quality over the past few years. The tradition of Beaujolais Nouveau dates back to the 1800s. Winemakers would bottle their just-fermented wine, produced from grapes harvested just a few months prior, an unusually tight timeframe in winemaking term. Paris, France, November 21, 2024.

Rome Overwhelmed By Public Works Projects For Jubilee 2025

Rome Overwhelmed By Public Works Projects For Jubilee 2025

Construction of a major underground hub is underway in central Piazza Venezia in Rome, Italy on July 2024 to complete Rome’s third metro line, which will connect the city’s two main basilicas, St Peter’s and St John Lateran, and dissect the heart of the art-rich centre. An 85-metre-deep retaining wall has been built around the flagship station in front of the imposing National Monument to Vittorio Emanuele II, commonly known as Vittoriano. - Pre-Jubilee public works projects have overwhelmed Rome, with flood-lit construction sites operating around the clock, entire swaths of central boulevards rerouted and traffic snarling the city's already clogged streets. The frenzy of work has snarled traffic, to the fury of residents, and left some visitors this summer feeling short-changed as they weave their way through myriad building sites. In addition to the Jubilee construction, there's a longer-term, separate project to extend Rome's Metro C subway line into Rome's historic center, which has encountered years of d
