The Wind of change: Famous cities from the same perspective in the past and present

Over the past hundred years, the world has changed so much that it is difficult to imagine how many things have disappeared and appeared. Many famous cities in the world, such as Kuala Lumpur or Hong Kong, are very vaguely similar to themselves in the past, and there were no cities like Dubai at all until recently.
