Paving stones

My favorite road in the Ateneo de Manila University. Except in very special circumstances, vehicles are not allowed on it.

road with paving stones and large acacia trees in the Ateneo de Manila University

    I can see why. I wish more places had brick or cobblestone.

    I guess that this road is usually more populated than this! The place looks very pleasant and green, a very good thing that it was pedestrianized...

    Are they acacia trees? The school grounds almost feels like Silliman U. in Dumaguete.

    The place looks deserted,must be the semestral break!

    I love how the trees lined up and branches hanging, almost forming like a canopy.

    I like both the paving blocks and the beautiful trees. No wonder it's a favorite.

    I agree with you. It is a very special street. I wish more streets were off limits to cars and more pedestrian friendly.

    I love stone walkways like this one. It must have been quite a lot of work to lay it though!

    Happy Friday!!

    The trees with their reaching branches and shadows are great too.

    These trees are fabulous. Their crowns form natural alley. Great perspective!
