Chur: Protective Housing for Roman Ruins, Peter Zumthor

That's Zumthor.

Stacked firewood for Brent and Laura

View of Haldenstein from area near Zumthor's senior housing.

On the way to Vals, we detoured to a small hilltown, Trin. Took a short steep hike to the top, near the castle ruins for lunch.

Therme Vals, Peter Zumthor.

Sumvitg Chapel, Peter Zumthor. Chilly, but lucky to have sun. we met a nice couple from Tokyo, who were traveling for 5 months! how exciting.

Unknown said...: I noticed you got all the Therme Vals pictures with no people in them! Hope your stay there rejuvenated you for your second half of the trip.; November 12, 2007 at 3:59 PM
Unknown said...: The rock outcropping in the panoramic view of Haldenstein looks like the Great Wall of China - I thought you were in Europe?; November 12, 2007 at 4:01 PM
Mark + Asti Chenchin said...: Yeah, we had the entire Therme Vals to ourselves! It was great. Actually, there is no picture taking of the interiors, so these are offically not mine, got them off the web (wink).; November 16, 2007 at 10:10 AM
