Những Cầu thang/tầng cấp đẹp đẽ, lạ thường, có
thấy mới tin.
Often, we try to avoid
any stress and discomfort. So usually prefer to go upstairs in the elevator
cabin than the stairs. But sometimes, it is worth to change their habits and
hiking. Especially when it comes to the ten most beautiful staircases in the world.
Their appearance, location and the surrounding landscape will leave no one
indifferent, so I provide Top 10 amazing stairs and beautiful staircases in the
world with amazing architecture. It's the most famous stairs and most beautiful
staircase in all the world.
1. Spanish Island Gastelugache
On a mountain hilltop
Spanish island Gastelugache is an exceptionally beautiful and picturesque
staircase of 237 steps. It was built in the tenth century and led to the old
hermit's hut. To fully enjoy the beauty of these places is best to come here in
the spring or autumn. In the summer there is usually very crowded and noisy.
2.Tyayhan,China
Spiral staircase height 9.51 meters installed
in China along the mountainside Tyayhan in Linchzhou. Walk the stairs, of
course, will appeal to all lovers of "tickle nerves" and novice
climbers. But before starting the descent to fill a number of forms and documents
that will confirm that you do not yet sixty, and you do not have problems with
the heart or lungs. This is done for security and avoid health problems.
3. 16th Avenue Tiled Steps, San Francisco
This is a gorgeous community project in SF
that has become a tourist attraction that one sees in pictures of SF but isn't
quite sure what it is. This is it.There's 164 steps to the top, each step
combines to make beautiful pictures from afar but if you look closely at each
one, they're unique. I saw dedications to loved ones, congratulations, pictures
of animals, tv quotes, and pretty much anything else.
4. Philadelphia
Museum of Art
The 72 stone steps
before the entrance of the Philadelphia Museum of Art in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania have become known as the "Rocky Steps" as a result of
their appearance in the triple-Oscar-winning film Rocky and four of its
sequels, Rocky II, III, V and Rocky Balboa, in which the eponymous character
runs up the steps to the song "Gonna Fly Now". Tourists often mimic
Rocky's famous climb, a metaphor for an underdog or an everyman rising to a
challenge. A bronze statue of Rocky was briefly situated at the top of the
steps for the filming of Rocky III. This statue, now located at the bottom
right of the steps, is a popular photo opportunity for visitors. The top of the
steps offers a commanding view of Eakins Oval, the Benjamin Franklin Parkway,
and Philadelphia City Hall.
5. Chand
Baori, India
In India, stepwells are more than just reservoirs: they're
gathering places to hang out and escape the heat. This ancient community
function means stepwells are also a geometric art form all their own. In a
village near Jaipur Abaneri is unusual ancient well Chand Baori. The building
was built in the year 800, and consists of 13 spans from 3500 narrow steps.
This area is very dry, so the builders gave the well shaped to maximally
preserve precious moisture. At the bottom of the well temperature is always about
five or six degrees below, so the locals would often come here to rest during
the heat wave.
6. Sicily,
Italy
Built in 1608, the Staircase of Santa Maria
del Monte is a 142-step staircase in Caltagirone, Sicily made from thousands of
ceramic tiles, one design per step, as a fitting tribute to a city known for
its design and production of ceramics and terra-cotta sculptures. For centuries
the stairs have been used as a backdrop for various festivals for which images
of patron saints and other local themes are illustrated using thousands of
flowers or candles. You can learn more about the La Scala Flower Festival over
on My Modern Met, or the light festival called the Scala Illuminata.
7. Longchamp Store Stairs, New York
The staircase at the Longchamp Store in New
York was designed by Heatherwick Studio in a “flow and coverage” pattern and it
took six months to build. The unique feature of this piece of art is that the
1¼” hot-rolled steel and glass panels forming the steps of the staircase gives
it a fabric like fluidity and it appears to be flowing like a silk ribbon. The
landscape stairs weigh 55 tonnes and also has magnetic properties that enable
attaching of movable lights and display stands with high strength magnets.
The balustrades are transparent and are fabricated using aerospace
windscreen technology. There is a three storey void cut through the studio
which allows the daylight to enter and glaze these amazing stairs.
8. Lello
Bookshop, Portugal
The Lello Bookstore was built in 1906 in Porto, Portugal by The
Lello Brothers (Antonio and Jose) who formerly owned another bookstore a few
streets away. Their new bookstore is one of the most ornate bookstores in the
world, mixing Neo-Gothic and Art Dec elements (especially the facade, pictured
below). It’s bright, it’s classy and it’s pink! Lello Bookshop is one of the
most popular bookshops across the world where people come not just for the
educational offering but also the alluring one. The bookshop’s pivotal
component is its bright pink staircase where the stairs appear to be sinking in
the ground creating a wonderful optical illusion. This staircase dates back to
1906 and the design was the brainchild of architect Xavier Esteves. The steps
have got a swirling structure where two channels appear to be pouring in, in a
single point and the sight is truly amazing. The famous Harry Potter writer JK
Rowling is also thought to have taken inspiration from this very bookstore in
Portugal.
9. Tulip
Staircase, Queen’s House, England
The Queen of England ostensibly has something
for flowers, and that too quite beautiful ones. Or so is evident from the Tulip
Staircase which glorifies the Queen’s House. This unusual staircase is not just
a visual delight but also an architectural wonder. The tulip staircase, which
also has a lantern below, was the first centrally unsupported helical stair
pattern that was ever constructed in England. The staircase was given the name
“Tulip” and has been called the same since always but it is thought that the
wrought iron balustrades and the stylized flowers in it actually resemble
fleurs-de-lis, which was the emblem of the Bourbon Family.
10. Spiral
staircase, Vatican museum, Italy
Take a look at this
staircase and you will be in awe for the next few minutes. This staircase is
actually that beautiful and also the most photographed one around the world.
And when you talk about spiral staircases, you just can’t skip this one. The
Spiral Staircase located in Vatican Museum, Italy was designed by the famous
architect and engineer Giuseppe Momo in 1932. It has got two beautifully
decorated intertwined spirals forming a double helical structure and there are
broad steps between a ramp and staircase. Above the spiral staircase is a glass
doomed ceiling which is equally alluring.
