These structures have withstood the test of time and the ravages of World War II. I was reminded of the strength and endurance embedded in our architectural heritage. What's the best way to incorporate resilience into our designs today?

Victoria Memorial in Kolkata, India and Ahsan Manzil in Dhaka, Bangladesh both are iconic structures representing the colonial era's architectural splendor in South Asia. The Victoria Memorial, a blend of Mughal and British styles, commemorates Queen Victoria and showcases British Raj artifacts. In contrast, the pink-hued Ahsan Manzil, or "Pink Palace," served as the residence of Dhaka’s Nawab family and now operates as a museum, offering a glimpse into the region's rich heritage and historical lifestyle.

The National Museum of Ras Al Khaimah, housed in an old fort, showcases traditional architecture and the emirate's storied history.

Pearling Industry's Legacy:

The old pearling village of Al Jazirah Al Hamra stands as a testament to the emirate's pearling history. This abandoned village features traditional coral-stone houses, offering a rare insight into the pre-oil era of the UAE.
