The Last Lighthouses

For hundreds of years, lighthouses were used to help sailors navigate their way safely into harbors.
These buildings were often built on the most dangerous coastlines with hazards such as reefs, cliffs, and rocky edges.
Today, the number of operational lighthouses decreases with each passing year.
Modern technology has replaced the need for these buildings, but they are still pretty cool to visit.
