One of Prague’s most celebrated Renaissance landmarks is getting a full restoration. The Prague Castle Administration has launched a major reconstruction of the Royal Summer Palace — widely known as the Belvedere — a project expected to run for roughly two years at a cost of approximately 100 million CZK. The building, which sits in the Royal Garden at Prague Castle, is regarded as the finest example of Italian Renaissance architecture north of the Alps.

Hong Kong authorities are investigating a suspicious fire that broke out in a residential flat, after a man died when he fell from the building and an elderly woman was overcome due to heavy smoke. Police received a report of the fire on Friday at around 7pm at a flat in Royal Garden, Ho Man Tin. Firefighters arrived at the scene, used a ladder to access the flat, and put out the blaze about 30 minutes later.
