Описание: This book presents a selection of magical places, genuine architectural, artistic and cultural gems set in peaceful, serene, suggestive atmospheres. The 80 villages selected were chosen due to the presence of buildings and urban structures of historical and architectural interest. These are eloquent testimonies to the specific historical identity of a country or a region, as well as the architectural, cultural and aesthetic tradition that characterizes it. All of the featured locations have a strong “genius loci” (spirit of the place) that is still perceptible today. Some of the villages are better known than others, and they are typically small, both in size and population. The book’s authors are art historians who are involved in projects to valorize local heritage. The book is written in a brisk, pleasant style and is illustrated with a collection of spectacular photographs, with extensive aerial views and suggestive panoramas, all of which bring to light the charm and cultural wealth of these historic treasures.
Veer off the interstate and explore strange, sublime, and breathtaking sights. It's all available on the backroads of Texas.
Texas is the second largest state in the United States, and you can be sure it's home to plenty of incredible sights waiting just off the beaten path. "Backroads of Texas" guides readers off the main drag where they can find intriguing sites, offbeat characters, and glorious landscapes. These are the sights normally missed by interstate-centric travelers.
The book includes thirty backroad drives and excursions that take travelers into the boondocks where all the craziest natural sights occur. Watch frenzied bats as they fly by the thousands from San Angelo's Foster Road Bridge. Catch your breath as you drink in the majestic Guadalupe Mountains. Get ready for goosebumps when you spelunk into the shadowy depths of Inner Space Cavern, and try not to get spooked when you see the paranormal "ghost lights" near the eclectic town of Marfa. These off-road sights are what truly set the Lone Star State apart from its neighbors.
Completely reimagined for a new generation of road-trip takers and explorers, "Backroads of Texas" is lavishly illustrated with photographs, maps, and vintage advertising of Texas's many scenic, historic, and cultural attractions. You think you know what Texas looks like? Think again. "Backroads of Texas" has something to surprise and excite everyone.
