Are you the type of traveller who can rhyme off the era and style of the buildings you see? Who makes a game out of matching buildings with their designers? A new travel programme launched by the American Institute of Architects may appeal to you.

Dubbed Architectural Adventures, the program is led by experts in cities around the world that are rich in architectural history like Barcelona, Chicago, London, Prague, Vienna, Havana, Beijing and Shanghai.
