France 2024 Tresors de Notre Dame

On April 15, 2019, a fire destroyed the cathedral’s spire and most of the roof. French President Emmanuel Macron immediately promised that the cathedral would be rebuilt in five years, and the reopening of the cathedral is scheduled for December 2024.

 

The Treasures of Notre Dame series began in 2020 with a July 17 issue showing exterior decorations of Notre Dame. A 2021 souvenir sheet features a stained glass window depicting Adam and Eve. The 2022 sheet and 2023 sheet show a pipe organ and bell, respectively.

 

The 2024 souvenir sheet shows the wood framework of the cathedral. Nicknamed “the forest,” the framework of Notre Dame measures about 330 feet (100 meters) long and 33 feet (10m) high.

 

Carpenters reconstructed the framework using the wood from approximately 1,400 oak trees.

France 2024 Aeroport Paris-Charles de Gaulle > 50 Ans

Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (French: Aéroport de Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle) (IATA: CDG, ICAO: LFPG), also known as Roissy Airport (Aéroport de Roissy) or simply Paris CDG, is the main international airport serving Paris, the capital of France. Opened in 1974, it is in Roissy-en-France, 23 km (14 mile) northeast of Paris and is named after World War II statesman Charles de Gaulle (1890–1970), whose initials (CDG) are used as its IATA airport code.

Charles de Gaulle Airport has three terminals: 

Terminal 1 is the oldest. It was designed by Paul Andreu in the image of an octopus. It consists of a circular terminal building which houses key functions such as check-in counters and baggage claim conveyors. Seven satellites with boarding gates are connected to the central building by underground walkways.

Terminal 2 is located at another side with 7 sub-terminal buildings (2A to 2G). Terminal 2 was originally built exclusively for Air France; since then it has been expanded significantly and now houses other airlines. 

Terminal 3 (formerly known as "Terminal 9") hosts charter and low-cost airlines. The CDGVAL light-rail shuttle connects Terminal 2 to Terminals 1/3 and their parking lots.  Terminal 3 is located 1 km (0.62 mi) away from Terminal 1. It consists of one single building for arrivals and departures.  Terminal 3 has no boarding gates constructed and all passengers are ferried by airport buses to the aircraft stands.

France 2023 Gustave Eiffel, 1832-1923

On December 27, 1923, Gustave Eiffel passed away in Paris, surrounded by his family. Aged 91, this extraordinary engineer and entrepreneur, and later a great scientist, left behind many creations and constructions, plus countless achievements and actions in support of science and technical progress. One of his finest accomplishments still presides proudly over Paris to this day. The Eiffel Tower has even become the classic symbol of the French capital, and of France itself.

 

For the 100th anniversary of Gustave Eiffel's death, many actors, including the Eiffel Tower, the Association of the Descendants of Gustave Eiffel (ADGE) and La Poste, will be coming together to pay tribute and shine a light on his heritage and impact across an era, in many different disciplines.

 

 

La Poste is producing a commemorative sheet of stamps in honor of Gustave Eiffel. This tribute to the man and creator features Eiffel's face, with his most iconic work behind him: the Eiffel Tower.

Singapore 2021 Skyline Greenery

Singapore Post Limited (SingPost) today launched a commemorative set of six stamps featuring prominent buildings with skyrise greenery in Singapore. Measuring 81.6 mm in height each, the set of stamps are the tallest stamps issued in Singapore’s history.

 

The stamps celebrate skyrise greenery projects built by both public and private developers in the last 10 years that have inspired new possibilities and frontiers in shaping Singapore as a City in Nature. The six developments featured are: Khoo Teck Puat Hospital (completed in 2010); Oasia Hotel Downtown (2016); Kampung Admiralty (2017); Jewel Changi Airport (2018); SkyTerrace@Dawson (2015) and Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum (2015). The first five have received Design of the Year at the President*s Design Award (P*DA) and the last was designed by two recipients of Designer of the Year.

 

Singapore’s greenery plan has evolved over the decades. What started out as founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew’s vision of building Singapore into a Garden City has since progressed significantly with the city-state’s development, with Singapore becoming a globally renowned biophilic City in a Garden today, and now setting its sights to transforming into a City in Nature.

 

Despite being land scarce, the commitment to greening Singapore remains a priority in the city-state’s future development. The Landscaping for Urban Spaces and High-Rises (LUSH) programme introduced in 2009 to encourage building developers to adopt skyrise greenery in their building design, was one of many initiatives to support implementation of skyrise greening island-wide, and an innovative strategy to integrate lush greenery into Singapore’s urban fabric. Developers are incentivised to incorporate greenery onto the multitude of vertical and horizontal, exterior and interior spaces in a building through innovative designs and technology to replace greenery from the building sites. As of end 2020, the LUSH scheme has enabled the introduction of more than 250 hectares of greenery within new developments in the past decade, resulting in the abundance of greenery in what could have just been a concrete jungle.

Italy : Venezia

Venice is a city in northeastern Italy and the capital of the Veneto region. It is built on a group of 126 islands that are separated by expanses of open water and by canals; portions of the city are linked by 472 bridges. The islands are in the shallow Venetian Lagoon, an enclosed bay lying between the mouths of the Po and the Piave rivers.

The name is derived from the ancient Veneti people who inhabited the region by the 10th century BC. The city was historically the capital of the Republic of Venice for almost a millennium, from 810 to 1797. It was a major financial and maritime power during the Middle Ages and Renaissance, and a staging area for the Crusades and the Battle of Lepanto, as well as an important centre of commerce—especially silk, grain, and spice, and of art from the 13th century to the end of the 17th. 

The lagoon and the historic parts of the city within the lagoon were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, covering an area of 70,176.4 hectares (173,410 acres).

Italy : Duomo di Milano

Milan Cathedral (Duomo di Milano), or Metropolitan Cathedral-Basilica of the Nativity of Saint Mary (Basilica cattedrale metropolitana di Santa Maria Nascente), is the cathedral church of Milan, Lombardy, Italy. Dedicated to the Nativity of St. Mary (Santa Maria Nascente), it is the seat of the Archbishop of Milan, currently Archbishop Mario Delpini.

The cathedral took nearly six centuries to complete: construction began in 1386, and the final details were completed in 1965. It is the largest church in the Italian Republic—the larger St. Peter's Basilica is in the State of Vatican City, a sovereign state—and the third largest in the world.
