The World's Most Beautiful Places
A view of Seattle’s Post Alley at Night. If you look closely, you can see a dark and mysterious figure quietly passing over the brick-laden walkway below the neon sign. Post Alley was named after Seattle’s first Post Office, and its first large government building, which covered an entire city block. Today the Alley is largely a tourist attraction, with its famous gum wall, and access to the equally famous Pike Place Market on its north end.
Steam billows from a coal-fired fossil fuel power plant in Alaska on a cold sub-zero night in the middle of winter. Located along the Chena River, in Fairbanks, which is located in the North Star Borough, the Interior part of the state and in many ways the coldest, especially as you head north toward the Arctic Circle a few hundred miles away.
Lincoln Memorial at Night. Constructed between 1914-1922, the Lincoln Memorial was fashioned after a Greek Doric Temple, and sits west of the reflecting pool on the National Mall in Washington D.C. The temple contains a large statue of President Lincoln along with the words from two of his famous speeches, the Gettysburg Address and his Second Inaugural Address. Lincoln’s Statue was carved by the Piccirilli Brothers. The Memorial was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1966.
