Doors of the World!!


doorway in Barcelona, Sarria neighborhood

So I found out via Pigtown that a lot of the blogging community is doing a 'doors of the world' post today and thought I'd share a few of my finds!

Palacio de Velazquez in Madrid - 3 doors -which one to go into???


3 doorways from the Palaccio Reale in Naples, Italy - love the pompeian door!
doorway of a beautiful temple in Portland, Oregon


cute shutters on the doors of Grey Towers, Milford, PA
Infamous Mussolini front entry in Naples, Italy - notice that it opens out onto a busy intersection -watch that first step!!



3 doorways found in the Casa Batllo in Barcelona

That door at Palaccio Reale is absolutely beautiful! You should lead architecture tours on the side :)

That palace is really beautiful - photographs weren't allowed so I tried to be sneaky and get a few photos! That would really be my dream job if I spoke any langauges well enough to communicate in easily other than English!

It was such an interesting concept I had to participate, Pigtown! I also realized how pitiful my 'doorway' resources are! Something to work on!

I loved that first door when I came upon it, PVE. Thats probably the only truly amazing 'door' picture I have that I can find. The mussolini doorway is just historically significant
