And to conclude today's selection, let's take a look at the Church of the Annunciation on the Greek island of Tinos. One of the most characteristic and luxurious examples of Greek neo-Baroque, it is not the largest and most beautiful Annunciation church in the country - that role, of course, goes to the Cathedral of Athens - but the more impressive this church looks, considering it does not have the status of a local cathedral.

The main Orthodox church in Dubrovnik, Croatia, which has not yet become a cathedral, is also dedicated to the Annunciation.
Located in the old town, it was clearly inspired by its architecture, referring to Romanesque and Gothic elements.

An Eastern Christian monastery with walls whose merlons are shaped like swallowtails.
Where can you find it? The first thought, of course, is Russia. Introduced to Russian soil from Italy, here this detail has taken root so well that many people associate it not with Western Europe, but with Russia.
The second option that few would think of is Greece. During the Francocracy, many features of Italian architecture have were adopted into local architecture, including this one, but the number of examples is small.
But you certainly don't expect to see such a thing in Egypt! The history of Deir el-Muharraq monastery is extremely ancient, and for most of this history it was fortified. The active development of the monastery complex nowadays led to the construction of new walls - this time decorative, and although not everything turned out well - these gates are definitely not bad.
