    If you’re not into architecture tour and travel, there are plenty of reasons to begin. You’re exposed to a stunning variety of thoughts and design spread across the planet, seldom to be find in one region. It’s complementary to travel actually – just that instead of the whole broad experience (in terms of people, culture etc) we typically associate with travel, we’re dealing primarily with architecture and how it shaped the region around it.
