The Staircase
La escalera, subir o bajar por ella es un privilegio en sí mismo.
The ladder, going up or down it is a privilege in itself.
The Harbour Authority building in Antwerpen, Belgium. The top extension to the building was designed by Zaha Hadid.
The temple is said to enshrine a relic of the Buddha. Such relics are typically bones and ashes believed to be gathered after the Buddha's cremation. The relic is installed in the main chedi of the temple.
That public transport plays an important role in a large city like Lyon, you can see at the latest when your gaze goes to the wonderfully lit sky at sunset and discovers the sky between the overhead wires....and yet they do not bother me here, but have become part of the evening mood in this picture.
And the reflection of the setting sun in a window is an additional eye-catcher.

The Palace of Prince Alexander Nikolaevich Golitsyn and Countess Sofia Panina (now the Yasnaya Polyana Sanatorium) with the museum room of L. N. Tolstoy, who lived here in 1901-1902. Here he was treated and worked a lot: he wrote the story "Hadji Murad" and a number of articles. Chekhov, Kuprin, Gorky, Chaliapin visited Tolstoy in Gaspra.
In front of the main facade there is a bust of Lev Nikolaevich by the Yalta sculptor D. Zhuravlev.
The building of the sanatorium "Yasnaya Polyana", on which a memorial plaque in memory of the stay of Lev Tolstoy is reinforced, is a palace built of gray stone with lancet windows and massive octagonal side towers topped with battlements and covered with ivy; erected in the 1830s by the creator of the Vorontsov Palace in Alupka, architect Gunt for Prince A. N.. Golitsyn (1773-1844).

Здесь он лечился и много работал: писал повесть «Хаджи-Мурат» и ряд статей. К Толстому в Гаспру приезжали Чехов, Куприн, Горький, Шаляпин.
Перед главным фасадом в 1971 году установлен бюст Льва Николаевича работы ялтинского скульптора Д. Журавлева.
Здание санатория «Ясная Поляна», на котором укреплена мемориальная доска в память о пребывании Л. Н. Толстого, — это построенный из серого камня дворец со стрельчатыми окнами и массивными восьмигранными боковыми башнями, увенчанными зубцами и увитыми плющом; возведён в 1830-х годах создателем Воронцовского дворца в Алупке архитектором Гунтом для князя А. Н. Голицына (1773—1844).
Churches and cathedrals impress again and again. The craftsmanship with which these structures were built hundreds of years ago is fascinating. And when the sun shares my opinion as here in the Basler Münster and shines through the window, the mystical atmosphere is perfect.
The original cathedral was built between 1019 and 1500 in Romanesque and Gothic styles. The late Romanesque building, destroyed by the 1356 Basel earthquake, was rebuilt. It's one of the main landmarks and tourist attractions of Basel, it adds definition to the cityscape with its red sandstone architecture and coloured roof tiles, its two slim towers and the cross-shaped intersection of the main roof.
Cúpula de uno de los dos torreones de la antigua Estación del Norte o de Príncipe Pío, hoy convertido en teatro tras una azarosa restauración.
As I strolled along the limestone path that has been bathed by sun and rain for 1,000 years, I felt I entered a world like fantasy that came to life, that took me back in time a thousand years.

En el siglo XIII una gran crecida del Tormes arrastró y dejó orillado a la izquierda del río por encima del puente, un Cristo de madera de tamaño natural. La gente del pueblo lo llevo a la iglesia, pero al día siguiente volvió a aparecer donde lo encontraron, y así durante algunos días más. La gente se convenció de que quería permanecer a la entrada del puente y allí le erigieron una ermita, denominada inicialmente del Humilladero.
OVIEDO (Espanha): Santa Maria de Naranco.
Este belíssimo exemplar de arquitetura pré-românica foi mandado construir em 848 por Ramiro I (muito antes da existência de Portugal, ou até do Condado Portucalense) como fazendo parte de um dos seus palácios. Só mais tarde foi convertido em igreja. O reino das Astúrias era, nesta altura, o único reino cristão na Península Ibérica, após a derrota dos visigodos pelos invasores muçulmanos. Destacam-se, no exterior, as suas elegantes proporções, os seus contrafortes, arcos e alguma decoração.

Stately and sublime from the outside, beautifully and magnificently designed inside...this is the cathedral in St. Gallen, which together with other buildings has been a Unesco World Heritage Site since 1983. Whether you are interested in the history or just want to admire the beauty, it is worth a visit.
So whenever you are in St. Gallen, make sure to step into the cathedral and admire it in all its glory. And especially the craftsmanship of the builders.

As if to rest a little from the exhausting summer months, this farm stands quiet and still in the cold and white landscape under the bare, but even without foliage magnificent trees, enjoying the clean air and the warming sunshine.

The Church of the Holy Archangel Michael over the village of Oreanda was built in 2006 at the foot of Mount Ai-Nikola. As archaeological excavations indicate, an ancient Christian monastery used to be located on this site. The temple was built by the famous Yalta architect Vyacheslav Bondarenko and is surrounded by mountains. When broadcasting the singing of the male church choir, voices repeatedly reflected from the rocks create an unusual acoustic effect. Such a monumental sound can only be achieved in special concert halls.
В п. Ореанда храм Архангела Михаила построен по проекту архитектора Вячеслава Александровича Бондаренко. Храм начали строить в 2005 г., а уже 21 ноября 2006 г., в день празднования Собора Архистратига Михаила и прочих Небесных сил бесплотных, совершилось его торжественное открытие и освящение. С этого времени тут начали совершаться богослужения, таинства крещения и венчания, другие требы.
В плане он квадратной формы, а с востока прибавлена алтарная часть в виде полукруглой апсиды. С других сторон стены завершаются треугольными фронтонами, опирающимися на капители белоснежных колонн. Сооружение имеет пять глав: большая, возвышающаяся в центре, символизирует Иисуса Христа, а четыре угловых – евангелистов.
The sanctuary of the Cathédrale Saint-Pierre in Geneva, photographed with a wide-angle lens. Photographed from a low height above the ground, these lenses cause the lines, columns etc. to distort. An effect that does not always fit, but here it reproduces the effect of this cathedral in an atmospheric image.
Originally it was built as a Roman Catholic cathedral, but became a Reformed Protestant Church of Geneva church during the Reformation. It is known as the adopted home church of John Calvin, one of the leaders of the Protestant Reformation. Inside the church is a wooden chair used by Calvin.
