Leipzig 1931 in Farbe (Mit der Straßenbahn durch Leipzig, Deutschland) Eine Straßenbahnfahrt durch Leipzig im Jahr 1931 oder 1930, stabilisiert, auf natürliche Geschwindigkeit korrigiert und mit Hilfe von künstlicher Intelligenz nachkoloriert.

Erläuterung zur Restauration: https://thwangenheim.wordpress.com/2017/04/07/strassenbahnfahrt-durch-das-leipzig-des-jahres-1931-eine-restauration/

Der Originalfilm dieser Straßenbahnfahrt durch das alte Leipzig wurde zur Ausbildung von Straßenbahnführern aufgenommen. Das Außergewöhnliche daran ist der dokumentarische Charakter des Films, der nicht etwa zum Ziel hat, Leipzig und seine Schönheiten zu zeigen, sondern lediglich den Alltag abbildet. Gerade daher sehen wir heute – da diese hohe Zivilisiertheit praktisch vollkommen verloren ist – vor allem die sich vor uns entfaltende ungeheure Ästhetik einer Weltstadt des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts.

Die blauen Straßenschilder zeigen die befahrene, die schwarz-weißen Schilder die einmündende Straße.

Im Leipzig des Jahres 1931 gibt es neben der schieren Ästhetik einer Weltstadt des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts in Architektur, Garderobe, Lebensart, wie sie heute nirgendwo mehr zu finden ist, unendlich viel zu entdecken: Von Straßenbauarbeiten und spielenden Kindern auf der Straße, bis zu fehlschlagenden Ladeversuchen, sogar Ampeln finden sich (allerdings auch diese ästhetischer als alles uns heute Bekannte ins Straßenbild eingefügt), etliche Karrenfahrer und Fuhrwerke, Seitenwagenmotorräder, selbst zu dieser Zeit bereits altmodische Landaulets, das Hanomag Komißbrot, den DKW Front F1 bis hin zu großen Limousinen und alten, offenen Straßenbahnwagen, sehr viele gut gekleidete Damen und Herren, Radfahrer und Passanten ohne Ende, Geschäfte von DKW und Horch, sowie Großgaragen in den Häuserzeilen, die sich von den üblichen Fassaden dieser herrlichen Straßenzüge, die wir mittlerweile zuhauf entstuckt, zerbombt oder abgerissen haben, um kein My unterscheiden, vorbei an Verlagen, Hotels, 5-Uhr-Teehäusern, dem Kristallpalast (wo gerade der Antikriegsfilm "Westfront 1918" läuft - was übrigens eher auf 1930 hinweist), Antiquariaten und Buchdruckereien (Leipzig, die Verlagsstadt), der Reichsbank, Huthäusern und den Leipziger Neuesten Nachrichten... ad infinitum. Schauen Sie sich einmal um!

Die Musik des Films in der Abfolge ihres Erklingens (vom Leipziger Thomaskantor Bach, über den Sohn der Stadt Wagner, den Gewandhausdrigenten Mendelssohn, den von diesem bewunderten Haydn (Nationalhymne der Weimarer Republik), den beiden Leipziger Studenten Schumann und Grieg und schließlich wieder Richard Wagner):

We’re in beautiful Mykonos (Μύκονος) Greece for today’s walk. One of the Cyclades Islands - an island group in the Aegean Sea with lots of mythology and history. They’re known for their blue and white stucco buildings, beautiful beaches, and clear blue water.

Mykonos is a smaller island with just 10,134 inhabitants - but many times that in tourists. The population can temporarily double during the day with the large cruise ships of visitors arriving.

We’ll be walking around Mykonos (same name) which is the largest town that lies on the west coast of the island. It’s also known as Chora (‘town’ in Greek) which you’ll find the same on other Greek Islands. The town is a maze of tiny streets all whitewashed. It’s still full of locals who you’ll see going about their daily business - but many houses are now converted to AirBnBs

Mykonos is also known as "The Island of the Winds" for obvious reasons - though today is a beautiful calm day. Over 150,000 tourists usually visit Mykonos each year - but this year it’s empty due to COVID … so we get the enjoy the small streets almost people free!

Usually, Mykonos tends to be extremely crowded with visitors in July and August so you planning your trip on either side of this is often a good idea. The sun shines for up to 300 days a year on Mykonos and the temperature is around 28 °C (82 °F) in summer due to cooling breezes.

As the island is so small the airport is only a short 15 minutes taxi ride away. But be aware that taxis in Mykonos are very expensive. Public buses regularly to the other towns and beaches so are often a better choice.

In Greek mythology, Mykonos was named after its first ruler, Mykonos (Μύκονος). He was the son of the god Apollo. Mykonos is said to be the location of a great battle between the god Zeus and giants. The large rocks all over the island are said to be the petrified corpses of the giants

Mykonos town is full of small cafes, top restaurants, bars and nightclubs. It’s also the most popular gay-friendly destination in Greece.

= Little Venice =

You might remember Little Venice where we started today’s walk which has rows of fishing houses line the waterfront with their little balconies hanging over the sea. These date back to the mid-18th century and rumor has it that they belonged to pirates who had secret storage below their houses to hide their treasures. Some of the houses have now been converted into bars and cafes and it's a great place to watch the sunset

= Mykonos windmills =

You’ll see windmills across Mykonos but these are the famous Kato Mili. They were built by the Venetians in the 16th Century to mill flour. Although they don’t work today they were positioned here to capture the strong Aegan winds.

The city of Zurich, a global center for banking and finance, lies at the north end of Lake Zurich in northern Switzerland. The picturesque lanes of the central Altstadt (Old Town), on either side of the Limmat River, reflect its pre-medieval history. Waterfront promenades like the Limmatquai follow the river toward the 17th-century Rathaus (town hall).

Switzerland is a mountainous Central European country, home to numerous lakes, villages and the high peaks of the Alps. Its cities contain medieval quarters, with landmarks like capital Bern’s Zytglogge clock tower and Lucerne’s wooden chapel bridge. The country is also known for its ski resorts and hiking trails. Banking and finance are key industries, and Swiss watches and chocolate are world renowned.

Zürich is the largest city in Switzerland and the capital of the canton of Zürich. It is located in north-central Switzerland, at the northwestern tip of Lake Zürich. As of January 2020, the municipality has 434,335 inhabitants, the urban area (agglomeration) 1.315 million (2009), and the Zürich metropolitan area 1.83 million (2011). Zürich is a hub for railways, roads, and air traffic. Both Zurich Airport and its main railway station are the largest and busiest in the country.

Permanently settled for over 2,000 years, Zürich was founded by the Romans, who, in 15 BC, called it Turicum. However, early settlements have been found dating back more than 6,400 years (although this only indicates human presence in the area and not the presence of a town that early). During the Middle Ages, Zürich gained the independent and privileged status of imperial immediacy and, in 1519, became a primary centre of the Protestant Reformation in Europe under the leadership of Huldrych Zwingli.

The official language of Zürich is German, but the main spoken language is the local variant of the Alemannic Swiss German dialect, Zürich German.

Many museums and art galleries can be found in the city, including the Swiss National Museum and Kunsthaus. Schauspielhaus Zürich is considered to be one of the most important theatres in the German-speaking world.

Zürich is among the world's largest financial centres despite having a relatively small population. The city is home to many financial institutions and banking companies.
