This fabulous staircase leading up to the original museum is no longer used, such a shame, I think as youngsters it would have been terribly exciting climbing up these steps to see strange and exciting things don't you agree! The two older buildings are adjoined by the more modern glass entrance below. Even though we're in the middle of winter you can see from the glare spots there's a lot of sunshine around, still chilly but not complaining about that! The museum is part of the Perth Cultural Centre which I'll follow on with tomorrow. Hope your week has started well, take care.....
Oh ja, ein schönes Gebäude, und gut, dass es erhalten wird...

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely series of buildings, now joined as one! You caught them beautifully, and the architecture is such a great mix of old & new. Hope your week is off to a great start too!
ReplyDeleteThe outside of the building looks inviting: arches over the windows, reflections in the glass, a fabulous staircase...For sure I want to know more about what's inside.
ReplyDeleteAn interesting blend of the old and the new. Can't wait to see where you are taking us tomorrow!

Lovely buildings, and I agree it is a shame the stairs are not used.
ReplyDeleteBut, you cannot have much in there, you have only been there just over a hundred years....
Adorable architecture!

What a huge building Grace .... with wonderful architectural elements.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sad about missing the dinosaurs... Beautiful shots Mamma!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful buildings. So happy that they are being preserved.
ReplyDeleteThat is quite a building. What is it that kids find so appealing about sweeping stairways? I agree, they would love climbing those steps.
