Dan Cruickshank's Adventures in Architecture
Architectural historian Dan Cruickshank follows a global treasure trail of buildings that have impressed, astonished and delighted us and have changed our perception of the world. On a voyage of discovery, he travels around the globe exploring examples of architecture ranging from the Sun City resort in South Africa to the Minaret of Jam in Afghanistan; from the South China Mall in Guangdon to the Roman sewers of Istanbul and from Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria to the Kizhi Cathedral in northwest Russia. In each programme, structures from all over the world are dramatically juxtaposed, exposing unexpected connections and demonstrating how architecture, in truly great buildings, can reveal our aspirations, ingenuity and beliefs.
