A3. Numberless historical associations bind Westminster Abbey to the spirit of Britain. Every monarch since William the Conqueror has been crowned here and scores of the nation’s most revered people are buried on its grounds. #TRLT

A3 One of York's lesser known sights, @barconventyork - England's oldest surviving convent. The Neoclassical chapel contains an original priest hole, 8 exits and a dome built in 1769 which hides
under a pitched roof. (We liked the little note on the organ...) @LindaPeters64 #TRLT
A3: Visiting the Harem in the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul seemed to transport me back to the height of the Ottoman Empire. #TRLT
A3: Pretty much all the temples in Egypt. Some of them are so well preserved that you can easily imagine how they used to look like in their glory days. The Valley of the Kings is pretty special as well, especially since you can visit some of the tombs. #TRLT

A3 Visiting Khiva feels like going back in time - the entirety of the Ichan Qala is an open-air museum and a @UNESCO World Heritage Site. #TRLT

A3 Avebury in Wilts is famous for its Neolithic remains, but Avebury Manor is fascinating in its own right. Dates from the 1550s, and a collaboration with the BBC for a TV series means that each room now represents a different point in the house's history @LindaPeters64 #TRLT
A3 - Step through the portal into the past in the Tomb of Nefertari – Valley of the Queens – #Egypt - very much a time capsule. The relationship of rulers with the gods – and what fantastic artistry @LindaPeters64 @TheTravelCamel #TRLT - here the Queen is hand-in-hand with a God

A3 Mehrangarh Fort in Jodphur. It is incredibly well preserved and you can easily imagine the raj of the past wandering around its grand rooms. The excellent audio tour also really helped transport me back #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 A3) Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site in Northern Arizona easily transported me back in time because not only is it well preserved but its still in operation. #TRLT
A3. More than any other ancient site in Iran, Persepolis embodies all the glory – and the demise – of the Persian Empire. After all, it was here that the Achaemenid kings received their subjects, celebrated the new year and orchestrated their rule. #TRLT

A3. Visiting Golubac fortress is like strolling through a timeline of Serbian history. Built by Hungarians in the 13th century, this impressive castle changed ownership more times than we can count before it was recaptured by the Serbs in 1867! #TRLT

A3. For our Head of Editorial Anna, there is no time capsule quite like Dennis Severs’ house in London. With each room dedicated to commemorating the style of former centuries, this Spitalfields institution tells the story of an imaginary Huguenot family. #TRLT

replying to @JLipowski @JLipowski @LindaPeters64 A3 I loved visiting the basement level of the Roman Colosseum on a @livitaly tour. So much history and vibes. #travel #funness #TRLT
A3. This one is a bit personal, but a visit to St Katherine's Parmoor definitely transported me to the past as my grandmother was in service there when it was still owned by Lord Parmoor. #TRLT https://t.co/qKHMVnrmOA

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 A3. Every time I step into a church or cathedral I feel like I’ve stepped back in time. St Pierre Cathedral in Geneva is a particular favourite. #TRLT

A3. This little mosque at Örtaköy is timeless somehow. The location is magical and peaceful with specially bounced light inside✨
It’s easy to imagine being rowed across the Bosphorus in silks and finery to get there! ⏳

A3. In Mestia, in @georgiatravel_, the old stone farmhouses with an attached tower where people and animals lived together in winter. Beautiful carving on the beds and stalls for the animals + fire in the middle. #TRLT https://t.co/G74nrekNyy

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 A3: This is the Central Railway station in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Inside time stood still but in a very quaint way. I loved it! #TRLT The station opened in 1882; assuming it had some work done due to the wars.
