The most spectacular lighthouses of the world

Leave a Comment
The headlights are an almost universal symbol of safety and orientation, which have helped the sailors to find the way home over the centuries. Although they are gradually losing their usefulness, the headlights remain monuments with an extreme marine weather resistance capacity.

In olden times, sailors were guided by bonfires built on hills, which later evolved into headlights. Over time, the headlights were becoming taller, stronger and closer to the sea.

Most of the lighthouses still standing today are living examples of the wonders of architecture and engineering practice and resilient, enduring the worst the sea has to offer. Although their guiding lights may soon stop sweeping the night sky, it is still possible to enjoy the beautiful and epic of these buildings.

We show you here some of the most beautiful lighthouses in the world. The majority is located on the coast of the United States, the United Kingdom and Ireland. But also, we show him the harbor lighthouse and Nazareth.
