These are amazing structures. What a great trip you are having with these architectural wonders as part of your journey.
thank you for sharing these architectural gems, I'd not heard of the architect until your posts. It sounds like a lovely trip--
Such wonderful buildings. Keep enjoying (and sharing) what sounds like a great trip. XXOO
