Villa Farnese

Located in the Trastevere Mountains of Rome, Italy, Villa Farnese is one of the architectural masterpieces of the Renaissance. Originally commissioned by the aristocratic family Alessandro Farnese, it was sold to the Chigi family and is now a museum. Villa Farnese, Italy, 1511      Villa Farnese was designed and built by a number of architects including Raphael and Baldassarre Peruzzi. Built in the early 16th century, the villa is one of the architectural masterpieces of the Renaissance.

The first step is to blind the Ou soil, plaster, white cement, and water. Then stir them well and let them dry in the sun. After that, add some oil to the wet mud. Finally, use a ca

Visit to a Factory

Factory is a very important facility in a city. Factories produce materials for the construction of cities and sometimes ship them to other cities or export them. There are many different types of factories, some making building materials, some making daily necessities, and even some processing food. This week we focused on factories that deal with building materials and learned how the assembly lines that make steel pipes work. Photo of a Factory After the observation of the production line and interview with the workers, we got to know the production process of the steel pipe. Firstly, they transport this kind of rolls of steel from a steel mill in Shanghai. A Roll of Steel Then the steel plate is then squeezed by rolls of different sizes to bend into a round tube as it moves through the tracks.
