Here are a few of the arches I’ve encountered on my travels in Morocco, Nepal, Turkey, Dubai, Rome, Abu Dhabi, Greece, India, Peru, China and near to home, but not necessarily in that order!

    One can’t help but marvel at the artwork and craftsmanship that went into those! Enduring for centuries, some of them. Must have been awe-inspiring to be right there!

      That’s the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, I’ve never seen anything like it anywhere in the world.

    So many different and beautiful arches. I have been to Salisbury several times but never noticed the goat above the shop. Maybe I should look up more.

    Arches are interesting on their own, but they make fabulous frames for photos too. Love that no entrance for foreigners one, not very friendly there I guess.

    I love all the interesting arches. So different visually, yet the same concept for a strong structure.

    Arches are beautiful and fascinating aesthetically and mathematically. I remember when I was a tad obsessed with them and read about them and studied the math. But it was so long ago, I’ve mostly forgotten. You have re-awakened my interest! (“No entrance to foreigners,” huh. LOL)

      They are amazing, whoever came up with the idea was a genius! I explained the No Entrance one to MY GBGV LIFE up above if you are interested!

    You saw many walls:) Except for Greece, Italy, and China, I have not visited the rest of these countries. Of the ones you mentioned I would like to go to Peru (because of their art and clothing). Fantastic sites! Emille

    Thanks for the historical walk, Keith. Can you point out the Turkey images for me.
    One guess, the bell image is from Turkey.
