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

The Galata Tower, Istanbul

This from www.greatistanbul.com/galata_tower.html

"The Galata Tower, Galata Kulesi in Turkish, is one of the highest and oldest towers of Istanbul. 63 meter (206 feet) high tower provides a panoramic view of the old town. It was built in the 14th century by the Genoese colony as part of the defense wall surrounding their district at Galata directly opposite ancient Constantinopolis. They called the tower as "Christea Turris", or "Tower of Christ". The Genoese were involved in trade with the Byzantines and the tower was used for the surveillance of the Harbor in the Golden Horn. After the conquest of Constantinople by Mehmet II, it served to detect fires in the city."

Thanks for looking :-)

William Kellie Smith had this tower of his "castle" designed to incorporate a lift but it was left unfinished after his death. A little of the original or first house can be seen on the left.

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

A lovey view of Tower Bridge, which is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London, it was built between 1886 and 1894. The bridge crosses the River Thames close to the Tower of London and has become an iconic symbol of London.
