Egyptian Architecture


        I have search many structure and heard different story of different country in terms of their Architectural structure.But among all those story of their history only few of them inspired me.
       Egyptian Architecture have shown a great contribution in terms of architecture in history. They are really good and they showed different way on their own in creating a structure and establishments. Their design is quiet simple but unique. Their design is more monumental. In terms of the decoration of structure they use ornaments. Heiroglyphs is also  known in their time. Egyptian English is based on 26 characters -letters.
      Geologically they used limestone for their structure. They have dry climate but they experienced cool feeling at night because of the desserts. The architectural characteristics of Egypt are shows simplicity ,solidity,and spiral. They also shows simplicity of their design. Egyptian believes that all of this symbolizes eternity. 
       Their religion is a dominant element of their structure. One hing I admire about Egyptians tradition is once they pharaoh is dead the body of the pharaoh is place inside the pyramid. This is not an ordinary pyramid because it is made-up of gold. They shows a great and a good example in treating their leader., that even though it is already dead they give a pledge of honor and a recognition for their pharaoh until the end of his life.
       Egyptian Architecture are all good and definitely to be proud off. Some of this are the pyramids , sphinx and many more. Egyptian Architecture really influence other country in asia.
       I really hope that someday I can go there and once I get that Chance I will roam the place and sketch all their structures as many as I can.I really admire their piece of art,.
