Wonderful Architecture

A3 #TRLT I’ll offer two. The Federation Bells in Melbourne & the Dragon Bridge in DaNang, Vietnam.

A3 The pyramidal Palace of Peace and Reconciliation in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, is quite unusual. Black on one floor, white on another, an opera house inside and - to misquote Reeves and Mortimer - some doves from above, too. @loyaltytravels #TRLT

A3 Has to be the Pineapple, Dunmore. The 4th Earl of Dunmore was governor of Virginia, where sailors used to stick a pineapple on a gatepost to announce their return home. On being forced home in 1777, Dunmore added the biggest pineapple of the lot to mark his own return. #TRLT

A3 We were drawn to discover the architecture in Prague. And found the Dancing House to be such a departure in design. #TRLT @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 @JLipowski @heidiSiefkas @pip_says @Touchse @Loyaltytravels

A3: On a trip last autumn to the Drôme department in #France, I discovered Le Palais Idéal. A remarkable feat of architecture, built by the village postman over decades by picking up pebbles while on his post round. He was over 80 years old when he finished it. #TRLT

A3: This is a facade of a building along the Malecón of #Havana #Cuba. This was an art exhibit during Biennial. The material were peanut (mani) cones made out of paper. Those that have been to Cuba know how symbolic the mani cones are. via @Loyaltytravels #TRLT #TravelTuesday

A3: How about the Shell Grotto in Margate? No-one knows for sure how or why this came to be, or how some 4.6 million British shells were spirited here to create the elaborate wall designs. But it is spectacular! #TRLT

#trlt A3: unusual? Well, how about this small Catholic chapel built out of a corrugated iron tube shelter.

Italian Chapel, Orkney. Built by PoWs in World War II.

A3 Also in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, the 'ethno-memorial' complex at Atameken is a scale model of the country. You can admire Kazakhstan's architecture all in one place, crossing the country in under 4 hours. Like much of Nur-Sultan, it is gloriously bonkers. @loyaltytravels #TRLT

A3: Based on a woven, beehive structure, the old king’s palaces at Nyanza in Rwanda are truly remarkable. And so well preserved! #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @loyaltytravels A3 I think Singapore is heavily underrated for architecture, and the super trees should definitely be counted #TRLT

replying to @Travel_Session A3- The design of the National Museum of African American History and Culture in #WashingtonDC is quite unique

A3 Without doubt the Parkent Solar Furnace is one of the most unusual - and impressive - pieces of architecture I've seen on my travels in Uzbekistan. It belongs to the Academy of Sciences & reaches temperatures of 3000 Celsius! #TRLT

A3: one unusual piece/feat of architecture I've enjoyed seeing during my travels, is Victoria B.C.'s Neo-baroque Parliament building, with Romanesque Revival Rustication it's majestic beauty enthralls.

I had never seen anything like it before.

#Oman has great architecture notably Bahla fort which resembles a sandcastle. There is a modern take on Art Deco for its public buildings a real contrast to the glass & steel skyscraper eclecticism you see elsewhere in the gulf & is undoubtedly the better for it. #TRLT A3

A3: The National Library in Prishtina is one of the most architecturally interesting buildings in Kosovo's capital, although not necessarily to everyone’s taste – a 2009 poll classed it among the ten ugliest buildings in the world. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @loyaltytravels A3) The Biomuseo in Panama City defiantly caught my eye when I was in Panama then I found out it was designed by Frank Gehry who has his own unique style of architecture. #TRLT

A3: I was also intrigued by the Maasai villages in Tanzania. I found their layout and functionality fascinating #TRLT

A3: The monasteries of Meteora in Greece are undoubtedly sensational. Meteora means ‘things hovering in the air’ – as apt a name for the rocks themselves as it is for the stupendous and unforgettable monasteries that crown them. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @loyaltytravels A3. Petra really amazed me.
From the Siq to the Treasury and monastery, everything was so mesmerizing. Walking via Al-Khubtha & the Royal Tombs trail was really something. The manmade work i witnessed, left me in complete surprise. #trlt

A3. South Indian temple architecture is rarely given to understatement and tends towards the 'unusual', like this one in Madurai, Tamil Nadu #TRLT
