Timeless Travels Magazine - Winter 2014 Back Issue

Timeless Travels Magazine Winter 2014 Back Issue

English

A huge issue with over 130 pages to tempt you to travel to Peru, Greece, Egypt, India, Italy, China, Mexico, Spain and Turkey. Everyone has heard of Machu Picchu, but do you know its sister site of Choquequirao? Only a fraction visit each year but you can explore it in this issue. Or you can visit the Dakhla Oasis in the western desert in Egypt or the remarkable site of Ani in Western Turkey - both spots off the usual tourist trail. In Mexico we have the second in our series on Maya architecture, in this issue looking at the Puuc style and in India we see how gardens are an intregal part of the Mogul architecture of Shah Jahan.

Fancy following in the footsteps of the mighty Persian ruler, Xerxes? We can arrange that for you in Greece today. In 1966 Florence was devastated by a flood and many art works were destroyed. See the amazing pictures and how the community came together to restore the art treasures. Also in Italy we focus on the painter Caravaggio, the only Barque painter with a criminal record and for paintings of a different type, we travel to the far reaches of China to discover thankga paintings in a Tibetan monastery.

Our interview is with Lord Carnarvon, who describes the incredible legacy of this great grandfather who discovered Tutankhamun’s tomb and we visit Madrid for our ‘weekend in’ feature. There are the usual art and archaeological news and exhibitions and our last word in this issue belongs to Herodotus.
