A city feels 'modern' or 'historic' based on what it looks like and how it was built. If a city has lots of tall buildings, glass windows, and new roads, people say it's modern. But if a city has old streets, stone buildings, and things that look like they're from long ago, people call it historic. It's kind of like the difference between a brand-new toy and an old one you’ve had for years.
Examples
- A city with many tall buildings feels modern because they look brand new.
- A city with old churches and cobblestone streets feels historic because it looks like it’s from long ago.
- People say a city is modern if it has lots of cars, buses, and subways.
