The immediate pleasure of nailing a power slide around a long bend; the rush of whizzing past trucks and buses at completely illegal speeds, while Egyptian pyramids become snow-capped mountains become harbor cobblestones become tulips-carpeted fields of joy around you: unbeatable.

With the front door open, a breeze comes in off Carrer del Pi. The sun, at high noon, reflects off the street's cobblestones and throws light and warmth into an otherwise dark and cool xarcuteria that's been run by the same family since 1930.

ONE MORNING IN Modena, I see a few of the men who work for Bottura hauling stuff into the street: bowls, pans, blenders, colanders, a Big Green Egg grill, a pair of Dutch wooden shoes — all of it piled on the sidewalk and the cobblestones.

Many spectators along the Champs-Élysées held their phones high to record the riders as they went past on the cobblestones, and there were more cheers when 11 planes flew overhead, leaving trails in the blue, white and red colors of the French flag.

The edges of the cobblestones were just catching flickers of orange light from the rising sun as it poked its head up between the buildings, and I could hear birds chirping in that rare Manhattan quiet as we made the walk back to our shared building.

I've watched screaming couples lug massive suitcases across the cobblestones of Sicily, and seen tiny travelers miserably dwarfed by massive backpacks in train stations as often as I've marveled at surly ones in the street frantically gathering up acres of clothes from a broken rolling bag.

"The lessons of the past war call on us to be vigilant, and the Russian armed forces are ready to counter any potential aggression," Mr. Putin said, after some 10,000 troops paraded and 114 pieces of equipment — by official count — rumbled across the cobblestones of Red Square.

Jungels, with the Quick-Step team, surged past Nairo Quintana of Colombia and Thibaut Pinot of France at the end of the 124-mile route from Valdengo to Bergamo, which contained two categorized climbs shortly before the finish and a shorter climb up the cobblestones of Bergamo.

Many spectators along the Champs-Elysees held their arms high to record the riders on their smart phones as they went past on the cobblestones, and there were more cheers when 11 jets flew overhead leaving trails in the blue, white and red colors of the French flag.

The stately apartments that line Lyon's two rivers; the way the light dances across the cobblestones of Vieux Lyon in the hour before sunset; the vegetable stalls that line the sidewalks of the third arrondissement: Lyon looks like the history picture books I'd pore over as a child.

They were a little slippery on smooth, wet cobblestones, but no worse than any other boot shy of felt (which you wouldn't want on a hiking or hunting boot anyhow), and the outsoles, no matter what I put them through, seemed to remain clog-free in everything from mud to gravel.

These days, cobblestones are buried under the asphalt on about one-third of the city's streets, but they endure as the surface pavement on a few iconic boulevards and squares, like the Champs-Élysées and the Place de la Bastille, and in the narrow alleys of historic neighborhoods like Montmartre.

Playing a prominent supporting role on the president's multi-leg Asia visit, she won praise on Chinese social media, with comparisons to China's glamorous first lady, Peng Liyuan, and comments on her apparent ease in navigating the ancient cobblestones of the Forbidden City in super-high stilettos upon arrival in Beijing on Wednesday.

The Maidan — where thousands had stayed through frigid nights, building barricades, huddling around oil-drum fires, tearing up cobblestones, filling molotov cocktails, singing the national anthem every hour on the hour, enduring the tear gas and police batons of a half-dozen botched raids — beckoned both men, and they headed for Ukraine.

Duffles are heavy, roller-bags don't do well on uneven terrain or cobblestones, and those traditional "backpacking" bags — or hiking style backpacks — are basically sacks with an opening on top, meaning you have to top-load them just like a garbage bag, which leads to stuff getting wrinkled and makes it hard to access.

Shoes take up the most room in your luggage, so choose wisely: You'll need a chic-but-comfy pair of sneakers to navigate those cobblestones in style, minimalist slides in optic white are the perfect upgrade to flat sandals, and, of course, a pair of red-suede heels for when you want to turn up the glam.

Of Rome, all he remembers (in his childish exhaustion) is the stone buildings stained as if hauled from the ocean, the heart-stopping traffic, his father lugging old-fashioned suitcases (including his mother's mysterious makeup kit) across the cobblestones, and the nighttime click-click-click of the yellow window shade as it flirted with the Roman wind.

ROME — One sunny day in September, Pierpaolo Piccioli, the creative director of Valentino, was sitting behind a modern light-wood desk in the brand's headquarters on the Piazza Mignanelli, the square off the Spanish Steps, when the strains of a Frank Sinatra song drifted in through an open window from an accordion player busking on the cobblestones outside.

Near the amphitheater-like main plaza on the Roman Bridge, to which bunches of palm leaves were attached (it was near the end of Holy Week), a man with an accordion sat playing "O Sole Mio" — just a touch too perfect but difficult to resist while gazing out over the water and feeling the cobblestones under your feet.

That has included high profile actions by groups like Pussy Riot — famous for their action in a cathedral and the heavy-handed response, and, just this month, disrupting the World Cup final — as well as artists like Petr Pavlensky, famous for nailing himself to the cobblestones of Red Square and setting the front door of the Russian secret police headquarters on fire.
