Sand City

Earlier this month I was on holiday in Turkey. Whilst I was there I stumbled across the 2007 International Sand Sculpture Festival in Antalya. This year’s theme and story is 1001 Arabian Nights.

The ambience within the festival was very surreal. Most of the visitors walked around in silence, as they learnt about the Arabian history and culture. What mesmerised me most was the size and accuracy of the sand sculptures. None of my sand castles ever look this good!
