The most unusual lighthouses in the world

The lighthouse is a guiding star that sends an information beam to ships at night. The history of these buildings begins from ancient times. Today, due to the development of technology, their role is fading. Perhaps in the near future lighthouses will become just tourist objects, evoking thoughts of adventure literature, where the main actions take place at sea.
