On 8 November 1736, Scotland's first theatre formally opened, on Carrubber's Close in Edinburgh's Old Town. It had been established by the poet and librarian Allan Ramsay. #EdinburghCulture #VisitScotland #TravelWriter

Walking from the ferry port to Iona Abbey, one passes the magnificent MacLean’s Cross. Medieval pilgrims paused here to pray on their approach to the Abbey. Erected around 1500, the cross was paid for by the powerful MacLean family. #IsleOfIona #TravelWriter

I went to see the 'Nile Mosaic' at the Museum of Archaeology in Palestrina while touring the cyclopean walls nearby 🌟 In around 100 BCE, the mosaic made up the floor of an apsidal building on the north side of the Praeneste forum 💫 #ancientEgypt #ancientRome #MosaicMonday

The Menhir di Tuttiricchiu is close the village of Villa Sant’Antonio in Sardinia and is around three metres high with a flat profile 💫 It’s 500 metres away from the much taller Menhir di Monte Corru Tundu which is on higher ground ✨ #Sardegna #Sardinia #StandingStoneSunday
