Do majority of europeans live in apartments or do they own homes?

Because they're not America.

They all have homes, but houses are expensive.
So most people are renting apartments.

It really depends, where.

Well Europeans have a taste for the great architectural styles of antiquity and the medieval
Buildings designed by artistic polymaths rather tgan cold engineers

boring clay colored tiny shacks
if a religious building is the tallest structure in your city it's actually a town
It doesn't matter, american and chinese cities look like real cities and euro "cities" look like suburbs or small towns

Yes, we need more glass sticks that will cover the sky view, good job.

Because the cities on Europe are some of the oldest in western civilization. During the rise in cities during the Middle Ages, the architect’s vision was on cramming as many people as possible, rather than look.

American 'architecture' can't hold a candle to the glory of Europe

I actually don't have one, I just google exact cities.

And basicaly what he posts are office towers.
And not for living.

There's something about gothic architecture that's extremely melancholic somewhat calming. But I can't quite put my finger on it.

You're just baiting for more buildings

In the cities it's like 60% flats/appartments the rest own or rent houses. In villages and small town only a small minority lives in flats/appartments. Or atleast thats how it is in Germany. Whether you live in the city or in bumfuck nowhere, there's historical buildings everywhere which is pretty nice.

If you like video games I have a fun fact for you. Miyazaki the developer of Bloodborne flew to Prague for inspirations and got drunk there. Long story short he was able to catch that whole Prager feeling pretty well.

The one on the right doesn't look that bad

Because it's European

This castle never got finished on the inside by the way, because King Ludwig the 2nd died in a mysterious way. Everyone knew he was depressed so he probably killed himself, but no one knows. Still impressive castle and worth a visit

Yes it is
Depressingly so

It’s funny to think there is such a thing as bumfuck nowhere in Europe. What are those places like?

This one is close to that one and an homage to the French castle Versaille. Lots of Japanese and Chinese tourist there lol. Before I went there I never heard someone speak Jap irl.

Attached: Herrenchiemsee.jpg (474x308, 33K)

prove me wrong: for every even remotely pretty building in america it is possible to name a grander and prettier version in europe

Same as in the US I assume. Everyone knows eachother, friendlier much more personal, old geezers loitering at the same spot they did 50 years ago, cute girls, boredom, great parties. If that makes any sense.

Thats not the case when it comes to the Statue of Liberty. I remember being 13yo or so with my mom in Paris cruisin through the Seine on those Bateau Mouches(?) and I saw like the miniature version of the Statue of Liberty and wondered why that is. Turns out the American version came after the French one and was actually a gift by the French to America.
The more you know.
