Wonders of Africa

Until now, I did not know that Africa used to be a such influential civilization. People of Africa built architectures that lasted for centuries. I never thought that Africa was so advanced in the architectural department. I was very stereotypical about African building because when I think of their residence, I only think about huts made of wood and grass. However, it is just magnificent to see solid structures built during the past reign of Africa. For example. The City of Great Zimbabwe had fascinating stone buildings that were used as fortresses. Wealthy African Pharaohs ruled upon a whole empire and had beautiful natural resources and a well developed capital city. This is also true for the City of Aksum because during this period, it was Africa's golden era. Now, I have huge respect towards the grand culture of Africa and its accomplishments.
