This is quite a descriptive and beautiful if you wish to read the entire chapter: http://vedabase.com/en/sb/1/6 — keep in mind this is over 5000 years ago and we’re getting a glimpse of what you’d experience traveling from an ancient metropolis to a rural area.
The Golden Ratio
The Golden Ratio and Fibonaci Sequence was well-known to Veda Vyasa and the Sages as an essential mathematical ratio synonymous with the “form of beauty” of divine nature, here exemplified in Sri Krishna.

Vastu Sastra is an ancient Indian science of architecture and proportions that employs the Golden Ratio extensively for designing and building energetically and aesthetically optimal temples, chariots and dwellings — as well as deities which are worshiped in temples all over the world, but especially in India.
From Wikipedia: The golden ratio has fascinated Western intellectuals of diverse interests for at least 2,400 years. According to Mario Livio:
Some of the greatest mathematical minds of all ages, from Pythagoras and Euclid in ancient Greece, through the medieval Italian mathematician Leonardo of Pisa and the Renaissance astronomer Johannes Kepler, to present-day scientific figures such as Oxford physicist Roger Penrose, have spent endless hours over this simple ratio and its properties. But the fascination with the Golden Ratio is not confined just to mathematicians. Biologists, artists, musicians, historians, architects, psychologists, and even mystics have pondered and debated the basis of its ubiquity and appeal. In fact, it is probably fair to say that the Golden Ratio has inspired thinkers of all disciplines like no other number in the history of mathematics.[12]

The spiral track above was made by an electron moving in a magnetic field. Since motion along a curved path requires a force perpendicular to the direction of motion, the electron is accelerated. Accelerated charges radiate electromagnetic waves, so the electron loses energy and spirals inward.
