Architecture on the Road
What is it about?
This niche travel blog is born from my desire to share the architectural beauty that surrounds us.
Architecture is indeed much more than just construction techniques; it integrates: design, sociology, psychology, technology, and popular wisdom. It can be regarded as a form of art, one that we experience everyday, actively shaping our daily lives.
With my articles and my pictures I intend to show the memorable places that I have visited, as well as providing information based on my experience that may be useful for fellow travelers and architecture geeks like me.
It is my hope that it will not only inspire people to travel, but to more fully understand and appreciate the local architectural heritage of the places they visit.

About me
I’m Silvia, a young Italian architect based in China, with a passion for traveling, photography and cultural identity.
One of the main inspirations for my travels has always been the search for understanding of how people live; with a specific interest in the local, traditional, and regional culture, which architecture represents as one of the most tangible expressions.
Yes, I’m an architect, but this is not a website exclusively for architects; it is open to anyone who appreciates the cultural diversity of this world.
I hope this blog will inspire people to travel, understanding and appreciating the local architectural heritage of the amazing places that architects without a name have designed around the world.
Stay tuned !
