slovakian old towns are so adorable
>>73718256
The houses look alike those in Poland but the cathedral it's quite distinct, similiar to the ones in Austria/Hungary
>>73718320
also their distinctive shape of the main street

did there used to be an architecture board on 4chan? i have a vague but distinct memory of seeing that on the home page but never browsing it
>>73718649
that would be the slowest board in existence
still i'd like to see it
imagine the architectural memes
>>73715990
What made you reconsider your taste in architecture?
>>73718649
They appear from time to time. I love it.
>>73718649
>>73718792
Oops, read it wrong. I thought you talked about architecture threads here.

>>73719004
I like how I can recognize this country from miles away. It couldn't be anywhere else, but at the same time I don't feel anything in those pictures is exclusively found here.
>>73719067
where have you been?
Also please rate these houses. There's an entire street filled with them in my town, it's probably the most expensive street to live outside of the canals but I really love how it looks.
>>73719108
flat + bikes = netherlands (or belgium)
>>73719275
Nah most of northern-Germany is flatland too, so are parts of France and huge chunks of the USA, Canada, Russia, etc. Yet it couldn't be anywhere else. Probably the brick houses.
>>73715990
Are you that girl that made /urban + architecture/ threads in the past? I haven't seen you here for a while.
>>73718320
well it's Kassa, it was once one of the largest Hungarian towns in the kingdom, its cathedral was refurbished only a couple of decades before Trianon happened
>>73718792
>>73718866
>>73719004
looks like shit
>>73719180
Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Delft, Den Haag, Breda, Baarle-Hertog, Zeeland, Haarlem, Zaandam. I hope I didn't forget anything.
>>73719180
I like it, but it looks kinda different from everything else that I've seen in the Netherlands.
>>73719659
Elaborate
>>73719572
what's the deal with the shape of slovakian old towns e.g. kosice, presov, poprad?
hungarian towns don't have that distinct wide street as far as i see on maps
>>73719322
Not only break houses. I'd say overall neatness, canals, big windows and attention to details.
>>73719846
>streets to narrow for cars
>no parking lots, you have to rely on your fucking bike
>semi-detached houses are an absolute waste of space (basically the same shit as a suburb but without backyards)
>monotone brick houses
>no private space
2/10 would not live there
>>73720122
you don't like towns do you
>>73718783
he got cucked by his korean long distance gf
>>73720174
nah
>>73719972
I don't know the exact reasons, but it might have something to do with "Slovakian" old towns not having been occupied and/or destroyed by Turkish and Habsburg forces during their two-century long warring on Hungarian lands
Upper Hungary (what is present day Slovakia) was relatively safe, as it was a part of the Habsburg dominion, and its towns could more easily preserve their architecture and urban fabric compared to other Hungarian towns, most of which were razed to the ground completely in the 17th century
>>73720122
>streets to narrow for cars
>no parking lots, you have to rely on your fucking bike
10/10, I hate cars. Also, it's irrational to give a lot of place for cars since there are far more humans in cities.
>no private space
>semi-detached houses are an absolute waste of space (basically the same shit as a suburb but without backyards)
Bullshit.
>monotone brick houses
What do you want? An architectural circus?
>>73720325
He's German. They live in soulless bland cities full of graffiti tags telling white people to die.
>>73720433
Yeah, I know. Been there. Although, they have good towns too.
>>73720505
Ah yes that looks very German indeed. I'm sorry you had to experience it.
>>73720325
> I hate cars

What I said is true, those houses are a waste of space. Either build efficient high-rises or build real suburbs where you have enough space for a big house, a backyard etc. and where the neighbors can't hear you through their wall. Those row-houses combine the worst of both worlds.
>>73720325
netherlands is horrible but i like the canals
>>73720658
Do you have autism?
Those houses actually look good and add character to a town.
>>73720658
actual suburbs are cancer and not everywhere you need/can build a highrise
>>73720658
>What I said is true, those houses are a waste of space
>Those row-houses combine the worst of both worlds.
Big houses are too hard to maintain and too detached from anything like shops, public places etc, and commieblocks are just shit, I think there is no need to explain it. Dutch houses are what humans need to live a normal life.
>>73720895
I saved all your pictures. Somehow you managed to capture Dutch urban scenery so perfectly.
>>73720939
Thanks. I can post some more.
>>73720991
>>73721047
Look, this is the ideal fucking city. I live there and can't complain. The streets are wide, you can easily navigate throught the city with your car. There is enough space between the houses and you have a lot of privacy in your comfy 7th floor apartment with a great view from the window/balkony. There are more than enough parking lots and everythig you need is nearby (malls, schools, banks etc.)
>>73721111
God this shithole most be in eastern-Germany. Is it Leipzig or Chemnitz?
>>73721099
What made you decide to take a picture of something as boring and common as this?
>>73721099
Is oc welcome?
>>73721249
fuck not upside down again.
>>73721111
>mfw this is actually in germany
if it wasn't for image search i'd say you were trolling
>>73721249
argentinian enbassy in canberra?
>>73719744
Have you been to Goes, Middelburg, Renesse, Zierizee and Brouwershaven?
>>73720895
THOSE ROW HOUSES ARE THE SAME AS AMERICAN SUBURBS WITH THE EXCEPTION THAT YOU DONT EVEN HAVE YOUR OWN BACKYARD (OR JUST A RIDIDULOUSLY SMALL ONE) AND STILL CAN HEAR YOUR NEIGHBOR THROUGH THE WALL. PEDESTRIANS CAN STALK YOU THROUGH THE WINDOW TOO
>>73721208
Berlin
>>73721370
I don't know what it keeps happening, they look alright before posting them.
>>73721208
I think after Russia it was staggeringly for me to see neat, well-designed, and good-maintained houses and infrastructure almost everywhere. Here we have only the Moscow center that is relatively good, but even there you can easily find some shit. Even right next to the Kremlin where Putin sits.
>>73721111
Bad bait.
>>73721486
My street.
>>73721467
what's this meme with hearing neighbours? i live in a small commieblock and it's really hard to hear anything
what kind of a wall would you need to hear your neighbour talk
>>73721492
You just have a shit taste you disgusting pervert. You know nothing about comfiness and efficiency.
>>73721682
What the fuck are those houses even worth if you surround them by commieblocks blocking all view
>>73721461
No, but I'm planning to return and see more cities. I really like it in the Netherlands.
>>73721467
> YOU DONT EVEN HAVE YOUR OWN BACKYARD
Sometimes you do, actually. But I think it's useless anyway.
>AND STILL CAN HEAR YOUR NEIGHBOR THROUGH THE WALL
I don't know, maybe. That means walls are shitty. Btw I also hear my neighbors pretty well in my shitty comm*eblock.
>PEDESTRIANS CAN STALK YOU THROUGH THE WINDOW TOO
Same shit, but when houses are small there aren't many pedestrians there. When they're big there are many people around a house usually. And you still can hear them,
>>73721682
Whatever dude.
>>73721915
>>73721583
>Those narrow roads
Just like in Russia. No one cares about people.
shilling my town as usual
>>73721976
>>73721796
>more cities
You've seen them all lol
Go to Belgium instead, Gent and Antwerp are beautiful. Brugge is worth a visit too.
>>73721208
dont be a dick
>>73722038
I think I should visit Poland. It's relatively close and cheap but still looks really good sometimes.
>>73722039
>>73722138
You can also visit Gdansk and see both the Netherlands again and visit Poland at the same time I guess.
>>73722069
I'm going to Belgium in two weeks, lol.
our commie town
>lets put some skyscrapers on this meadow
>>73722191
>>73722039
>>73721976
Looks good. Considering it's also warm almost always it should be a good city to live in.
>>73722315
Looks like europe
>>73722315
I didn't dig it 2bh. Munich is WAY better.
>>73722478
>Frankfurt
>Looks like Europe
Why shouldn't it, lol?
>>73722315
its's the financial capital of eu after all
My home city Norwich
>>73722363
Yes, we have palm trees here.
>>73722684
Always thought of visiting Poland what's there to do tourism wise? Also I heard pollacks don't like foreigners so how do I avoid conflict?
>>73722701
I think I can post some Moscow. It's Europe too after all..
>>73722799
You can visit concentration camps
>>73722862
Can't tell if joke or serious.
>>73722827

>>73722991

>>73723099
>>73722799
just don't run around the main square shouting shit with an obvious british accent and you'll be fine
and yes, you can visit auschwitz
It was a very gray day, as gray as the eyes of the Polish anon who's posting ITT.

>>73723374
>>73715990
Thanks for always making these threads, man. Always a good time.
>>73723476
Yeah, pretty much. It's neater and better maintained but definitely has Russian vibes.
>>73723476
kinda like russia, but deciduous trees give it away
>>73723374
Looks similar to this
>>73715990

Looks like some places in Moscow.
>>73724280
I wouldn't know, never been to France.
Anyway, I got pretty tired of posting.
Next time I will post more, I have like thousands of pics.
It was a good thread, as always. But I'm going to sleep. Hope I don't miss the next one.
>>73724869
Never been there either but that was my first thought
San Jose, Costa Rica
