WHILE MODERN STRUCTURES can be more than impressive in their own right with respect to architecture, technological advancement, and beauty, there’s something to be said about structures from the past.
Ruins around the world have withstood the test of time and remain standing for travelers to marvel at. (Well, they haven’t completely withstood the test of time, or else they wouldn’t be called ruins.) Many of the methods used to create these ancient cities, temples, and monuments remain rather mysterious, as building them in this day and age would still be considered an impressive feat.
Check out these 30 awesome ancient ruins around the globe and see for yourself.

Nafplio ,Greece
Version en français plus bas.One of the most beautiful towns in the area of Argolis (in eastern Peloponnese) as well as one of the most romantic cities all over Greece, Nafplio was the first capital of the newly born Greek state between 1823 and 1834.
According to mythology, the town was founded by Náfplios, the son of god Poseidon and the daughter of Danaus (Danaida) Anymone. The town’s history traces back to the prehistoric era when soldiers from here participated in the Argonautic expedition and the Trojan War alike. The town declined during the Roman times and flourished again during the Byzantine times. Frankish, Venetian and Turkish conquerors left their mark in the town and strongly influenced its culture, architecture and traditions during the centuries. Ancient walls, medieval castles, monuments and statues, Ottoman fountains and Venetian or neoclassical buildings mesmerize the visitor with their unique architecture and beauty.
L'une des plus belles villes de la région de l'Argolide (dans l'est du Péloponnèse) ainsi que l'une des villes les plus romantiques de toute la Grèce, Nafplio fut la première capitale de l'État grec récemment né entre 1823 et 1834.
Selon la mythologie, la ville a été fondée par Náfplios, le fils de dieu Poseidon et la fille de Danaus (Danaida) Anymone. L'histoire de la ville remonte à l'ère préhistorique où les soldats d'ici ont participé à l'expédition d'Argonautic et à la guerre de Troie. La ville a décliné pendant l'époque romaine et a prospéré pendant les temps byzantins. Les conquérants francs, vénitiens et turcs ont laissé leur marque dans la ville et ont fortement influencé sa culture, son architecture et ses traditions au cours des siècles. Les murs anciens, les châteaux médiévaux, les monuments et les statues, les fontaines ottomanes et les bâtiments vénitiens ou néo-classiques fascinent le visiteur par leur architecture et leur beauté unique.
