The Acropolis was an impressive sight, pyramids at Giza also but I think the Taj Mahal beat them for sheer monumental beauty. Quite a contrast to the chaos and clutter of its surroundings.
Not really monuments but some desert areas in the Sahara and Oman were also memorable.
I also have to put a plug in for my home city of Lincolns cathedral which is a fair old building by anyones reckoning. Tom Hanks doesn't film in any old church you know!
