A4 #TRLT The best example I can think of is this hilltop castle overlooking Lake Bled, Slovenia.

A4 Stunning castle on the cliffs at Marvao in the Alentejo region of Portugal. Perfect for a sunset stop on our recent trip. #TRLT @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 @JLipowski @heidiSiefkas @pip_says @Touchse

A4: Tatev Monastery in Armenia stands on the edge of a beautiful gorge.

A winding road takes you up to the monastery from the Vorotan River, or you can take the impressive "Wings of Tatev" ropeway and fly straight over the gorge.

A4: The entire Caminito del Rey in Spain, built over a cliff. Not to mention the famous suspended bridge, connecting the two sides of the cliff. Nooo, thank you :) #TRLT

A4: Many buildings built into the sides of cliffs and on rocks in Yemen. #TRLT

#trlt A4: some of that's not the horizon, but rather the edge of the cliff.

The alternatively-pronounced Happisburgh lighthouse.

A4 #trlt building on a cliff: Dunottar in Scotland comes to mind, as does Dunluce in Northern Ireland -- though neither were quite so close to the edge when built

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 A4) That would be a yes, just outside of Flagstaff Arizona you can visit not just an ancient Native American cliff dwelling but a whole community at Walnut Canyon National Monument. #TRLT

A4: Montezuma Castle, built between 1100 and 1425 AD, Camp Verde, Arizona, shares the ingenuity of the Singua people. Living 27m up a limestone cliff, with it's placement protecting it from exposure to the elements and enemy tribes, is admirable. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel #TRLT A4: A building or monument constructed on a canyon, cliff or gorge… again, Petra: the Treasury gets most attention (thanks to Indians Jones!), but there are equally amazing ‘buildings’ carved from the rock face there, and many, many burial caves. And stunning colours.

A4: There's a dam and a power plant on top of this one. At Twin Falls, Idaho. #TRLT

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 A4: Can we get away with the Saracen watch towers that are dotted all around #Puglia’s coast, dating from the 16th century? #WeAreInPuglia, which was always prone to invasion (still is - tourists these days!). These are defensive structures and there are around 150 of them.#TRLT
