The One Absolute Foundation

One Storied World

Throughout history, humans have expressed their experiences with the Absolute with monuments and architecture that stand as testimony to their beliefs and their cultures.  Yearly, pilgrims and tourists visit such sights, to dutifully bask in their magnificent splendor.  What would the world be without these impressive structures, their mysteries, and their grandeur?  Every faith, every culture has built them and their beauty continues to enhance our world, directing us inward and filling us with awe.  Though by no means exhaustive, this gallery seeks to visually explore these monuments across cultures and faiths.
