City and Town Architecture

Canterbury Tour
Enter at one of four landmarks or use the clickable map to tour the city courtesy of Peter Collinson, who provides numerous photographic views and lighthearted background text.
Carcassonne
A fine selection of photos of "the best medieval city in Europe" is offered at Henry and Kathleeen's Leafpile site.
Isfahan
Extensive site by Thomas Christopher Rochford examines Islamic architecture with a tour of the Iranian city and its architectural features. Unfortunately, the site includes background music with no readily apparent way to turn it off.
The Walled City of Carcassonne
Background, pictures, and a guided tour are included at this nicely done site by Philippe Cuq and Bruno Berniere. Also available in French, with or without animation.
