Imagine standing by a river in Europe thousands of years ago. Farmers built a small village here because the land was fertile, suitable for growing crops, and the river was rich in fish. Over the centuries, more and more people discovered that this was a great place to live and work, and it was also ideal for building ports and bridges. Soon, a small town developed from here and eventually became a bustling city. The stories in this book are like a journey, but it’s not an ordinary journey—you don’t need to take a plane, car, or ship. In fact, you can travel through time without leaving your home! Open the book, and time flies by at your fingertips: hours, days, or even years. Each moment—each stop in your journey—is a new chapter in the story: the earliest riverside village, the Roman market, a city with cathedrals, castles, and walls in the Middle Ages, the day when a fire nearly destroyed the city, the city’s reconstruction, the dark days of World War II bombing the city, and today’s modern metropolis—all telling the story of the city.
