Hi Adrian, it seems that you are a great admirer of these structures. In fact I am also the same. These architectures and sculptures are a sort of heritage for the people. These structures also tell their stories that how they were being made. No doubt this era also have some huge designs like these, but the pics which have been posted here are really great and outstanding. They have their own place. I liked each one of them.
