replying to @sl2016_sl @sl2016_sl @TheTravelCamel @CharlesMcCool The amount of beautiful artwork in St. Peters is almost hard to fathom! #TRLT
replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @FunInFairfax @TBEXevents Sounds good. Let us meet during ITB #trlt
A3 Some incredible temples in and around #Kathmandu #Nepal are worth exploring for their architecture alone regardless of your spirituality #trlt
#TRLT The Church of the Savior on Blood is one of the most beautiful landmarks in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
RT @FunInFairfax: A3 Melk Abbey has the most beautiful stairway I have seen in a spiritual place, though the Vatican is a close second #TR…
Q3: What is the most awe inspiring architecture you have seen at a sacred place? Share a photo! via @theexploringeye #TRLT
A3. I was completely blown away when I ascended the stone steps from the lower chapel (4th image attached) to tapestries of majesty that are its exquisite stained-glass windows! @theexploringeye #TRLT I remember gasping. My 14-yr-old pics don't do it justice though.
A3.The Buddha dordenma in Bhutan -
Atop a hill in Thimphu stands one of the largest Buddha in Bhutan. some visit the dordenma to offer prayers some to just enjoy its magnificence. This 51 meter sculpture is in every sense awe inspiring.

replying to @joanie71459 @joanie71459 @HeidiSiefkas @CharlesMcCool Largest coastal redwoods are on/near coast in northwestern California. Humboldt Redwoods SP has 10% of old growth ones left & densest biomass in world. Avenue of the Giants & Newton B Drury Scenic Parkway are two spectacular scenic drives in area. https://t.co/s7lAPJNPbu #TRLT
A2 Since ancient times, spiritual = mountainous, as on the top of a peak you’re closer to the gods. And in Tajikistan the mountains are particularly breathtaking #trlt

@LindaPeters64 @CharlesMcCool A1: As an American Muslim, I never really frequented mosques as much as I would've liked. When I lived in #Qatar, I frequented the Abdel Wahab Mosque in #Doha. Something about this beautiful, expansive place always brought upon me a calm after a hectic week.

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @FunInFairfax A2. Being in the mountains or in the desert, I always find these natural places kinda sacred as they’re so vast and largely unspoilt, like they have been for thousands of years 😊#trlt
A4: Not sure if this prehistoric circle on the Isle of Man has sacred origins, but I certainly heard ghostly voices (or “spirits”) here. @adventurepretty @JR_justJR #TRLT #travel #TravelTuesday
A4. Not all sacred by definition, this view, 1,400 feet above sea level, was captured along the mountain ledge of Storsteinen overlooking Tromsø Sound. Undoubltely a spiritual experience...and God said, "Let there be light." @adventurepretty @JR_justJR #TRLT
A4 #Iceland moved me. I typically don't enjoy colder climates, but around every corner was another surprise my Mother Nature. Here's my video recap: https://t.co/NfQmfoeibV via @AdventurePretty @JR_justJR #trlt #traveltuesday #travel #adventure

Q4: Not all sacred and spiritual places are places of worship. What other sacred ground moved you and made you feel something special. Why? @adventurepretty @JR_justJR #TRLT
replying to @HeidiSiefkas @HeidiSiefkas @AdventurePretty @JR_justJR The landscape in Iceland seems so grand! #TRLT
replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @DoroLef @TBEXevents I'm so excited about @TBEXevents Europe! @CharlesMcCool and I are really looking forward to it. #travel #TRLT
I love visiting every church I can find when I travel! @TheTravelCamel #TRLT These are beautiful Shane! https://t.co/MX6JJhe3OP
#TRLT Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá in Colombia is unique for being built from a salt mine. https://t.co/fCAlKLjKHc
I love little churches reflect their communities. This one is along U.S. Highway 60 in New Mexico. #TRLT
A.4 Gompas - Small round temple like structures. we found them everywhere in Ladakh, India. these are believed to be symbols of peace & prosperity. although it is not a worship place but such beautiful chortens made us feel really special.

replying to @JeffTitelius @JeffTitelius @AdventurePretty Beautiful. That shot is just flat out stunning. #TRLT
replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @theexploringeye A3: Iran's mosques like the Agha Bozorg are simply stunning for their architecture. #TRLT
replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @theexploringeye A3 my interpretation is that trees are sacred architecture. Prove me wrong! These are at @BocaResort, in the phenomenally gorgeous town of Ocean Springs @SeeCoastalMS, in @LA_CajunBayou, and @VISITFLORIDA Keys #travel #TRLT
replying to @MsHalaCo @MsHalaCo Mission Dolores area before you get on the Golden Gate Bridge #TRLT
replying to @JeffTitelius @JeffTitelius Even better is that they played piped Gregorian Chants at a soft level and there were hardly any other people, even in the height of summer - wonderful. #TRLT

@RachelTheRamblr @JR_justJR @LindaPeters64 @CharlesMcCool That's beautiful and awe inspiring!
My friend got married in the same church in Sicily as her maternal grandparents, just a beautiful experience to have been a part of.
