Resumo

The material treats basic scientific categories available in the scientific toolkit of cultural geography and in geographical science in general. They are considered in the context of the modern development of the city, especially the urban settlements with large populations. Arguments about the role of urbanization, modern unification of urban settlements and loss of identity are put to the fore. The interrelationships between socio-geographical categories such as urban landscape, heritage, geography of images, urban identity and others are viewed herein.
