"Vaulted: Exploring Architectural Marvels and Historical Treasures" Step into the enchanting world of "vaulted" wonders, where architectural splendors from around the globe come to life. From medieval tales to modern marvels, these vaulted structures have stood the test of time, captivating generations with their grandeur and beauty. In Sir Gawain and the Green Knight by William McLaren, we are transported to Lindores Abbey in Newburgh, Scotland. The abbey's majestic vaulted ceilings echo with whispers of ancient rituals and sacred chants. Traveling eastward brings us to Viceroys House in New Delhi, India.
