There are lots of great examples that you can visit. You can look at these ancient examples of great paving and then use that as a comparison of what we do today when we use stone to pave something.<\/p>\n<p>A common form of stone paving back in the day was cobblestone paving. Travel through Europe today or many cities in the United States and you will see that some of these streets still exist. They were well made streets and have survived a great deal in order to still be seen today.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the traditional road there are plenty of great examples of stone paving work. While the roads are very important it is really some of the other stone structures that are more exciting. You will notice in the castles in Europe and many of the famed structures of ancient Rome all contain examples of great stone paving.<\/p>\n<p>Stones and their use in paving can be more than just roads the stones can be used as part of great buildings and temples. The care with which the stone was placed is still visible today and the work has lasted through centuries because of it. Travel beyond Europe though and you can still see great examples of the stone paving process.<\/p>\n<p>An example on the North American continent is the stone paving of the Aztec people in Mexico City. The Aztec ruins are still very visible in the main presidential square in Mexico City. The stone there was used to pave over a lake and was a holy site for the ancient people that lived there.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the best stone paving that has ever been created though is in China at the Great Wall. While this might not be considered stone paving by some, you can walk across it and so it really is paving. This structure is not only ancient, but it can be seen from outer space.<\/p>\n<p>Want to find out more about <a href='http:\/\/pavingandgravel.co.uk\/'>Block Paving<\/a>, then visit Paving and Gravel&#8217;s site on how to choose the best <a href='http:\/\/pavingandgravel.co.uk\/gravel.html'>Cheap Gravel<\/a> for your needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No matter where you travel around the world you can see examples of stone paving.
