Moray, Peru

Peru isn’t all about ruins in the Andes, and lines drawn in the desert. There is also the concentric farm in Moray.

Ollantaytambo

Clay skyscrapers

Skyscrapers were first built during the growth of American cities such as New York and Chicago in the late 1800s and the early 1900s.

Shibam in Yemen built multistory clay edifices a thousand years ago.

German sunset

Of course sunsets happen everywhere, but Sylt in Germany gets a cracker.
