The beautiful Alexandre Pont III Bridge is perhaps the most ornately decorated of all the Paris bridges. The beautiful detail took my breath away. The bridge was built to commemorate the friendship between France and Russia and was named after Tsar Alexander.

The Ruins at Talisay City, Philippines. This mansion was built back in the early 1900's by a sugar baron. This was the largest residential structure ever built at that time. The mansion met its sad fate in World War II when the mansion was burned to prevent the Japanese forces from utilizing it as their headquarters. It took days of inferno to bring down the roof and the 2-inch wooden floors.
