PR of Flights of the Soul is our next lovely guest host, and she is inviting us to find Balconies – please visit her beautiful site for interesting facts and more inspiration!
PR talks about the many ways of using a balcony, and – some cities seem to have no balconies at all, while others have them in every building. In many countries I have seen a dog sitting or walking on the balcony of a house. Hopefully the door in is not closed!
So, we are looking for balconies… A good advise is going to Georgia (not in the US…) and Old Town Tblisi. In the header though, is a Bhutanese balcony for monks only.
For well kept, beautiful architecture and balconies, an impressive place to visit is Prague. This balcony is surely not intended only for a quiet, nice cup of coffee.
The second gallery is from around Europe – we do have some interesting balconies too!
These are from Denmark, Madrid, Barcelona, Bulgaria and Sweden. The ants at Wanås Castle is a work by Colombian Rafael Gómezbarros. And, of course you will recognise Gaudi’s spectacular architecture. PR, the last one is for you – an inside view of the largest balcony of Casa Battló.
Do you have a balcony of your own or are you thinking of some that impressed you? Do remember to use the Lens-Artists tag, and connect to PR’s original post.
Last week, we saw great responses to the challenge Perfect Pairs – a joy! Next week the Lens-Artists team will be back, with Patti starting off the challenge on her Pilotfish blog. Until then- stay nice, enjoy your vacation if you have one, travels if you do and above all – Life. A big Thank You to PR and all guest hosts!

Marvelous as always Ann-Christine. That balcony with the monks is fantastic!! I also loved the balcony with the pup. They’re all wonderful but those 2 melted my heart ❤️
Thank you, Tina!

You’ve sold Tblisi to me, Ann-Christine. It looks fantastic. Always beautiful, carefully curated posts, a joy to read and be inspired. I loved this post.
Sofia, thank you for a lovely comment! And I am the happiest if you loved Tblisi and someday would go there too.
You have two very different galleries of balconies. They are both beautiful in different ways. Lovely Ann Christine.
Thank you, Leanne! First I thought I would not find any, then I remembered Tblisi – an old love of mine.
What an amazing collection of balconies, Ann-Christine 😀! It looks like I should plan a trip to Tbilsi. Thank you so much for showing me the inside view of Casa Battlo 🥰. I don’t think I can pick a favorite – each balcony has its unique character! The architecture of those apartments in Denmark is nothing like any I’ve seen before! And the ants – I hope we don’t see ants that huge ever in our lives 😂..even the fake ones are giving me a shiver..!
Haha, the ants, yes, they make me shiver too. Glad you liked my balconies – it was a great challenge! And – you would love Tblisi, I am sure.
Fantastic balconies! I love the first balcony with the dog looking out.
Thank you – he was a sweetie, I do hope he was not locked out there though…
I love that opening shot from Bhutan and you’ve shown that TIbili has some beautiful buildings I would love to see and photograph! The ants are fun too 🙂
Thank you, Sarah – you would have made fantastic images from Tblisi!
I hope to visit one day!
What interesting examples. Those Danish ones are different. And as for those ants …. eew!
Thanks, Margaret, I liked the Danish blue – and the ants too…but not in my house!
You have seen some amazing places and those places have had great balconies and you have captured them perfectly
Thank you so much, Ritva! I first thought I would not find any for this challenge, then I remembered how much I loved Tblisi.
Interesting ones!
Thank you!
A wide variety of balconies. I can’t find a favourite- I find them all fascinating!
Those piercing eyes in the opener are amazing. I loved the photos and variety of balconies. That one in Prague is fascinating.
Thank you, Egidio! I finally found some balconies at all…
Georgia looks very interesting, and it’s just a short hop away. Thank you for putting another pin on my map.
Among the photos of west European balconies, the Swedish one stands out. As does the ant-infested one (nice find).
Thank you, I.J. Georgia was fantastic – not least the food and wine!
So many wow balconies A-C
Thank you!
What an amazing array of balconies Ann-Christine! I loved them all from the old wooden to the modern and fancy gilded one.
Thank you, Anne – I did not remember at first…just how many balconies I had!
Oh wow, you found some really great ones.
♥
