Chapter Cities & Desire 4
City overview
The extraordinary city of Fedora is notorious for its Museum of Globes. Nowhere else can you see so many versions of a single city. Although Fedora is actually a gray stone metropolis, many people tried to imagine it looking different and improved in one way or another.

Nevertheless, while someone constructed a miniature of an improved version of Fedora, the actual city changed, and the miniature became irrelevant. So, it was placed in a little glass globe and found its place in the Museum.

In the globes you can find any modifications of the city you can imagine. For example, the one which could have a beautiful pond collecting the water from canals if they had not been dried up. Or, the one with a high canopied box for elephants, if they had not been banned in the city. The collection of such globes keeps growing.

The main attraction of the City is The Museum of Globes and it's highly popular. It is recommended to check the congestion on the website before visiting.

If you have your own suggestions on how to improve Fedora, you are free to make your own miniature model of the City. However, it is very likely that it will rest in another glass globe forever.
