Parc Montsouris is one of four major parks created under Napoleon III at the edges of Paris. With its lake, waterfall, and wide lawns, it’s a year-round favourite for locals — whether for a picnic, a run, or just some quiet time outdoors.

This museum is all about history, technology and work combined together in one building. It gives you a peek into the world of how work has changed during the ages. Live the life of a pilot, construction worker or a doctor for a day. No, it's not just reading of signs, it's a museum that focuses on the interactive part as well. There are a lot of simulators, such as a helicopter and airplane, which will give you the feeling of being in control of the machine.

Al-Murabba Palace offers a direct insight into the life of King Abdulaziz Al-Saud, the founder of modern Saudi Arabia. Built just outside old Riyadh's walls, this square, mud-brick complex served as his official residence and the seat of government from 1938. Its design, centred around a large internal courtyard, reflects both traditional Najdi architecture and the need for privacy and security. The palace's 32 rooms, now a museum, display personal effects, historical photographs, and administrative offices, providing a tangible connection to a pivotal era in the nation's history.
