The birthplace of King Arthur was really a Mediterranean trading post? And the shimmering towers of French châteaux told a story not just of royalty, but of symbolic innovation? Tintagel Castle’s myth-making origins to the nighttime lantern tours at Chambord, this episode dives deep into how history is shaped, reframed, and relit across centuries.

We then travel to Galicia and Rajasthan, where preservation experts use both 3D scanning and ancient lime mortar to protect cultural gems like Santo Estevão Church and Amer Fort. These are more than architectural marvels — they’re living testaments to global cooperation, environmental resilience, and the enduring magic of place.
