Belém Tower is a fortified tower located in the civil parish of Santa Maria de Belém in the municipality of Lisbon, Portugal. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site (along with the nearby Jerónimos Monastery)because of the significant role it played in the Portuguese maritime discoveries of the era of the Age of Discoveries. The tower was commissioned by King John II to be part of a defence system at the mouth of the Tagus river and a ceremonial gateway to Lisbon.
The tower was built in the early 16th century and is a prominent example of the Portuguese Manueline style, but it also incorporates hints of other architectural styles] The structure was built from lioz limestone and is composed of a bastion and a 30-metre (98.4 ft), four-storey tower. It has incorrectly been stated that the tower was built in the middle of the Tagus and now sits near the shore because the river was redirected after the 1755 Lisbon earthquake. In fact, the tower was built on a small island in the Tagus River near the Lisbon shore

Thank you for your time to view, wishing you all a splendid day.
Culzean Castle was constructed as an L-plan castle by order of the 10th Earl of Cassilis. He instructed the architect Robert Adam to rebuild a previous, but more basic, structure into a fine country house to be the seat of his earldom. The castle was built in stages between 1777 and 1792. It incorporates a large drum tower with a circular saloon inside (which overlooks the sea), a grand oval staircase and a suite of well-appointed apartments.
In 1945, the Kennedy family gave the castle and its grounds to the National Trust for Scotland (thus avoiding inheritance tax). In doing so, they stipulated that the apartment at the top of the castle be given to General of the Army Dwight D. Eisenhower in recognition of his role as Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe during the Second World War. The General first visited Culzean Castle in 1946 and stayed there four times, including once while President of the United States.

We left the Cinque Terre and took the train to Pisa for a night. I loved how the afternoon light made a second row of pillar shadows against the wall.

Perched on a hill above the village of Llanarthne, Paxton’s Tower looks out on the Towy Valley. Built over 200 years ago, the majestic tower is in fact a folly built in memorial to Admiral Lord Nelson and to impress the people of the valley.
The bell tower is part of the Virgin Mary Church on the main street of Megalochori on the island of Santorini.
the tower lights up ...
soar.....
pierce the clouds ...
like the devil who is watching us from feeling ...
the tower lights up ..
once or twice the crows hover over it ...
like sending a message from the world of death ...
ahhh ... the tower is still burning ...
keep an eye on our lives ...

Another angle of last week's Guard Tower pic. This one has the old power lines and the new ones next to each other . When the prison closed they put up new lines which are closer to the guard towers. They closed the prison because the land became too valuable and they want to develop it. When the lease ran out they didn't renew it. It's now a mixed use area with an arts museum and nearby houses. #Lorton #LortonArtsMuseum #sunset #landscape #LucyBurnMuseum #GuardTower #HTT　#日没 #sunset #Sonnenuntergang #CoucherDuSoleil #X-T30Fujifilm
