From the prehistoric megaliths of Carnac in Brittany to the Buddhist temple-complex of Borobodur in Java, from the giant medicine wheel at Bighorn, Wyoming in the USA to the Confucian Temple of Heaven in Beijing, this book guides the reader on a journey around a hand-picked selection of 100 of the world's most spiritually uplifting sites.
Evocative descriptions accompany the photographs, many of them from esteemed writers who share with us their personal responses. There is also a helpful gazetteer at the back of the book giving key facts for visitors.
