Answer and Explanation:

When it comes to fairy tales, setting is extremely important to help establish that aura of mystery and magic, a sense that "everything is possible".

Fairy tales usually take place in a far-away land, or in an exotic land, never at a place close to home. That is obviously intentional. What is close to home is not magical, is not mysterious. But a land that is far away, filled with princes and princesses, a land that no one has ever heard of - now that is a place where anything can happen. People can be turned into frogs, witches can curse babies and poison apples, pumpkins can be transformed into carriages, simple people can marry royalty they met a couple of nights ago. None of that would be possible if it weren't for the distant, mysterious land. Time or era is also vague. We tend to associate princes and princesses with older times, but fairy tales will never specify when. That only enhances the feeling of uncertainty, leaving plenty of room for thrilling situations to occur.

A beautiful house, a new and unique architectural style. Do you know about the architecture of the house? arcviet.vn
babymother [125]

This house is an example of the architecture of Hanoi in Vietnam, where the architectural legacies of the era of French domination in European style survive, raised at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th. This could be a house of that period or a current house designed respecting that style.

In general, they are usually very fresh brick constructions that adapted the French neo-classic style to the warm climate of Vietnam. The adaptations are in the arrangement of the terraces, balustrades and the extensive gardens. Light colors allow the diffusion of light and ceramic ceilings with a steep slope greater than 30 degrees are ideal for draining rain when it is abundant. The systems of closing in the windows filter conveniently the passage of the sun to the interior of the rooms obtaining a fresh atmosphere, thanks also to the great height of the interior spaces.
