The grand light fittings in the The grand entrance hall of Penrhyn Castle, North Wales. Penrhyn castle, a 19th century recreation of a Norman style castle. But this castle is a no expense spared Victorian era palace.
Fed up with darkness, the Hereios of the We're Here! group are celebrating lights, lights and more lights.
The four-faced brass clock on top of the information booth, perhaps the most recognizable icon of Grand Central, was designed by Henry Edward Bedford and cast in Waterbury, Connecticut. Each of the four clock faces is made from opalescent glass (now often called opal glass or milk glass), though urban legend has it that the faces are made of opal and that Sotheby's and Christie's have estimated their value to be between $10 million and $20 million. Within the marble and brass pagoda lies a "secret" door that conceals a spiral staircase leading to the lower-level information booth. [Wikipedia]

Chartered Bank's original Tianjin office in the city's foreign banking street has been preserved, though today it is used as a post office of China Post. Some of the original furniture, furnishings and fittings remain in the office. The building is well worth the look - it is like walking into a time capsule.

Broken Hill is located east of the Simpson Desert in Australia. Silver, lead and zinc were discovered here in vast reserves in the 19th Century and it has been a huge mining centre ever since. The entire city is dominated by mining, mining history, and the legacy of wealth resulting in fine monumental stone buildings in an unlikely desert setting.
