Only In Vienna (4/6) - A Guide to Hidden Corners: Curved Roman Walls (2'10'')
Urban explorer, travel writer, historian and photographer Duncan J. D. Smith F.R.G.S. is taking us on a short tour of hidden Europe. In some examples of the little-known places and unusual objects of his CD Only In Vienna: An Audio Tour Through The Hidden City he is now presenting secrets of the Austrian capital in a few short videos. His tour is based on his wonderful book Only In Vienna and it again makes the difference between just looking at a city as a tourist and seeing it with all its history, variety and eccentricities. As Mark Twain said 'Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. Duncan J.D. Smith is encouraging you to follow his path and to explore Vienna as an urban environment that is not just one of the worlds most beautiful cities, but also an excellent example for the charming aspects of historical places and the stories behind inconspicuous, overlooked details.
In short clips Duncan J.D. Smith is presenting the following locations in Vienna:
Part 1: Mölker Bastei (2'03'')
Part 2: Harry Lime's Doorway (1'48'')
Part 3: Medieval Cellars (4'00'')
Part 4: Curved Roman Walls (2'10'')
Part 5: Synagogue Remains On Judenplatz (2'00'')
Part 6: Knights Templars In Blutgasse (2'35'')

Having worked for many years in the publishing industry selling other travel writers' books, in 2003 Duncan J. D. Smith F.R.G.S. decided to start writing and illustrating his own. As a self-styled 'Urban Explorer', travel writer, historian and photographer, he has embarked on a lifetime's adventure, traveling off the beaten track in search of the world's hidden corners and curious locations. Duncan has so far traversed three continents in search of unusual places and people, from the wartime bunkers of Berlin and the Baroque gardens of Prague to the souks of Damascus and the rock-cut churches of Ethiopia. His European findings are being published in a ground breaking series of guidebooks - the 'Only in...' guides - designed specifically for the purpose. Volumes on Vienna, Budapest, Prague, Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, and Cologne have been published, and a volume on Zürich is in preparation in 2011. The series has garnered considerable press acclaim, with sales to date in excess of 80,000 units. Born in Sheffield, England in 1960 Duncan ran his own private museum from the age of ten before going on to read Ancient History and Archaeology at Birmingham University. Together with his father Trevor, he co-wrote and illustrated four highly successful books on the curiosities of Sheffield and Yorkshire, and was the author of the best-selling topographical book Yorkshire: A Portrait in Colour. Still a passionate collector he now tries to restrict his habit to vintage travel books, whilst also enjoying gardening, natural history, and music. Duncan divides his time between England and Central Europe. In 2010 Smith was made a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society and in 2011 he was elected a member of the British Guild of Travel Writers. CuChullaine O'Reilly F.R.G.S., co-founder of the Long Riders' Guild, has described Smith as the thinking man's exploratory investigator. Exclusively for expeditionsresearch he is giving us the rare possibility to follow him on a try through Vienna.

Prato, Province of Prato, Tuscany, Italy, Europe
Prato is a city and comune in Tuscany, Italy, the capital of the Province of Prato. The city is at the foot of Monte Retaia, elevation 768 metres (2,520 ft), the last peak in the Calvana chain. The lowest elevation in the comune is 32 metres (105 ft), near the Cascine di Tavola, and the highest is the peak of Monte Cantagrillo at 818 metres (2,684 ft). The Bisenzio (river), a tributary of the Arno, flows through it. Historically, Prato's economy has been based on the textile industry. The renowned Datini archives are a significant collection of late medieval documents concerning economic and trade history, produced between 1363 and 1410. Prato is also a centre of the slow food movement, with many local specialities, including cantucci, a type of biscotti, sold by local speciality bakers. Since the late 1950s, the city has experienced significant immigration, firstly from southern Italy, then from other nationalities, the most notable being a large Chinese community which first arrived in the late 1980s. With more than 191,000 inhabitants, Prato is Tuscany's second largest city and the third largest in Central Italy, after Rome and Florence. In 1512, during the War of the Holy League, the city was sacked by Spanish troops assembled by Pope Julius II and the king of Aragón, Ferdinand II, to recover the nearby city of Florence for the Medici family. The severity of the sack of Prato led to the surrender of the Florentine Republic, and to the restoration of the Medici rule. Historians debate the actual number of people killed during the sack, but contemporary chroniclers asserted between 2000 and 6000 people were slaughtered in the streets. In 1653 Prato obtained the status of city and became seat of a Catholic diocese. The city was embellished in particular during the 18th century. After the unification of Italy in the 19th century, Prato became a primary industrial centre, especially in the textile sector (Italian historian Emanuele Repetti described it as the Italian Manchester), and population grew up to 50,000 in 1901 and to 180,000 in 2001. The town experienced a significant internal immigration. Previously part of the province of Florence, in 1992 Prato became the capital of the eponymous province. The city of Prato has the second largest Chinese immigrant population in Italy (after Milan with Italy's largest Chinatown). Legal Chinese residents in Prato on 31 December 2008 were 9,927. Local authorities estimate the number of Chinese citizens living in Prato to be around 45,000, illegal immigrants included. Most overseas Chinese come from the city of Wenzhou in the province of Zhejiang, some of them having moved from Chinatown in Paris. The first Chinese people came to Prato in the early 1990s. The majority of Chinese work in 3,500 workshops in the garment industry and ready-to-wear. Chinatown is located in the west part of the city, spreading to Porta Pistoiese in the historical centre. The local Chamber of Commerce registered over 3,100 Chinese businesses by September 2008. Most of them are located in an industrial park named Macrolotto di Iolo. Raids on factories employing illegal immigrants in 2010 highlighted problems with the growth of an apparel industry in Prato based on cheap, and sometimes illegal, labor. In spite of all these blames, the local unemployment rate was around 7% in 2013, which was significantly lower than the national average 11%, even after 4,000 enterprises which employed 20,000 people were closed in the past two decades. The president of the Industrial Association of Prato, Andrea Cavicchi, pointed out that the local economic performance was much better than the rest of Italy due to those Chinese textile business. The dialect from Prato is very similar to that of Florence, but it has its own peculiarities. Prato is home to many museums and other cultural monuments, including the Filippo Lippi frescoes in the Cathedral of Santo Stefano, recently restored. The Cathedral has an external pulpit by Donatello and Michelozzo, built and still used for the display of the cathedral's famous relic of the Virgin Mary, the Girdle of Thomas (Sacra Cintola, a cord belt), which had a great reputation in the late Middle Ages and is often shown in Florentine art. Also of interest is the Teatro Metastasio, the city's main venue for operas and other theatrical productions, which was built in 1829–30.
