Description
Impenetrable fortresses, representative palaces, or fairy-tale castles of famous rulers... All these majestic buildings, whose massive walls reflect the power of those they once protected, still evoke awe and admiration in us today. The lavish book you hold in your hands offers portraits of hundreds of the most interesting castles, palaces, and fortresses, whether they are the most famous European residences or lesser-known Japanese and Chinese fortresses, African desert citadels, or Indian palaces. Among these gems are also several of the most famous Czech castles and chateaus. A multitude of stunning photographs will transport you to places filled with splendor and luxury, but also to those where the long-lost glory is now only remembered by the remnants of once-grand structures. Travel the world with us and listen to the mysterious stories from ancient times connected to the places this book will take you. Each chapter also contains useful tips and information for those who wish to embark on their own journey to some of these sites.
