Only a young couple of night owls went with me to the beach and there i saw some fishermen at work. This wonderful morning silence was a great experience! Thank you very much for visiting my page!
All visitors of Burano remain intrigued by the many colours and the colorful houses that are reflected into the green waters of channels, by the leaning bell tower, by the tranquility and the calmness with which the elderly ladies embroider original Burano lace by their tombolo (or lace pillow), while they are laughing and chatting in squares among them. It seems to be in paradise.
Dedicated to the saints Bartholomew, Mark and John the Baptist, it was built between 1472 and 1476 as the personal shrine for the condottiere Bartolomeo Colleoni, a member of one of the most outstanding families of the city, and his beloved daughter Medea. The site chosen was that of the sacristy of the nearby church of Santa Maria Maggiore, which was demolished by Colleoni's soldiers. The design was entrusted to Giovanni Antonio Amadeo, whose plan respected the style of the church, as can be seen from the octagonal tambour of the dome and in the lantern cusp, as well as in the use of polychrome marbles.
Капелла Коллеони – это шедевр ренессансной архитектуры. Построили достопримечательность в XV ст. и после этого не переделывали (лишь реставрировали), что является редким случаем для Италии. Эту необычайно красивую постройку, облицованную разноцветным мрамором, возвели по велению Бартоломео Коллеони (Bartolomeo Colleoni) на месте северо-западной апсиды Санта-Мария-Маджоре. Её снесли по его приказу солдаты. Строительство достопримечательности поручили архитектору Джованни Антонио Амадео (Giovanni Antonio Amadeo), который при разработке проекта учитывал архитектурные особенности базилики Санта-Мария-Маджоре. В результате капелла получилась небольшая, выполненная в форме восьмиугольника, а венчал её ребристый купол.
At the intersection of Via Carducci (former via S.Girolamo) and Via San Vittore - a street full of aristocratic palazzi that runs along the path of the medieval walls of the Naviglio covered over in 1883 - stands an eccentric building. This is the result of a project by the architect Adolfo Coppedè (brother of the famous Gino). The building stands out for its imposing neo-medieval style even though it was constructed in the nineteenth century; however, it is devoid of excessive decorations: the building is constructed with brick and embellished with white stone. Built on five floors, the highest is decorated with crenellated merlons with the addition of a tower with battlements and gargoyles that are particularly well crafted. The ashlar masonry of the first floor gives a slightly eclectic touch to the building Definitely worthy of note is the covered loggia which further reinforces the original style of the house. Because of its volume, the position on the corner of two streets and factors such as the loggia and the tower, the building has a decidedly monumental aspect.
Это уникальная эклектико-историческая архитектура, характеризованная традиционными элементами средневековой крепости, интерпретированными в ключе своеобразного синтезированного чарующего театрального эффекта.
Кульминацией композиции является величественная башня с прямоугольными зубцами - прекрасный контрапункт в сочетании с неподалеку находящейся потерной Св. Амброзия (Pusterla di Sant’Ambrogio). Дворец, который благодаря своим странным очертаниям приобрел прозвище "замок", был построен для семьи Кова под руководством Адольфо Коппедэ в 1910 году. Цокольный этаж здания, облицованный рустикой, характеризован цветовым контрастом между облицовкой из красного кирпича и многочисленными вкраплениями из белого камня. Великолепный угловой балкон, поддерживаемый консолями, и богатое убранство - рамы, балюстрады, колонны, окна со средниками, высеченные водостоки и зубцы - определили общее впечатление декоративного изобилия. Этот эксцентричный архитектурный стиль, который сочетает в себе либерти и исторический маньеризм, был определен как "стиль Коппедэ" (“stile Coppedè”) в честь богатого творения братьев Адольфо и Джино.
St. Joseph’s Cathedral is the oldest church in Hanoi, with construction beginning in 1886, and the design intending to emulate its Parisian counterpart (Notre-Dame de Paris). The cathedral was built in Gothic Revival-style, built of granite slabs and gorgeous stained glass windows shipped to Hanoi from France. The exterior, however, is being seriously worn down, as pollution is a severe issue in Vietnam’s capital city.

St. Bernard de Clairvaux Church is a medieval Spanish monastery cloister which was built in the town of Sacramenia in Segovia, Spain, in the 12th century but dismantled in the 20th century and shipped to New York City in the United States. It was eventually reassembled at 16711 West Dixie Highway, North Miami Beach, Florida, where it is now an Episcopal church and tourist attraction called Ancient Spanish Monastery. It is the oldest European-built structure in the Western Hemisphere.

The Ascension Monastery was founded in 1690 by the bishop of Tambov and Kozlovski, St. Pitirim, which is considered to be one of the most beautiful mansions in the diocese of Tambov. The monastery is located on the northern outskirts of the city at the mouth of Alexander Hawrushka Studentsov and the rivers, and his first abbess was the sister of Bishop Pitirim, Catherine. The fate of the rich monastery was burning, and was then rebuilt, where it maintained its fertile icon within its walls, and was closed for a long period during Soviet power, which revived in the 20th century. But everything began peacefully and as in many other Russian monasteries, the poor were gradually expanded and rebuilt for several centuries. Initially, in its territory 18 cells of the nuns have been built, this was a simple hut of wood, there was not even church or clergy. The monastery received full-time status on the reform of Catherine II in 1764, since the sum of the contents did not reach 375 rubles. The first stone church of the Ascension of the Lord was established a hundred years later, those of the monastery in 1791. In 1816 was laid the first stone of the second church of the monastery. It was truly glorious days when they arrived at the monastery in the first half of the 19th century, where the nun Miropiya (Adenkova in the world) settled. It is from its name that it is associated with the exaltation of the miraculous Vyshenskii (Kazan) of the icon of the Virgin.
Тамбовский Вознесенский женский основан в 1690 году епископом Тамбовским и Козловским, святителем Питиримом. Монастырь расположился на северной окраине города в устье рек Студенца и Гаврюшки (сейчас — пересечение улиц имени Бориса Васильева и Московской). Первой игуменьей обители стала родная сестра владыки Питирима — Екатерина. Акты и грамоты об основании обители сгорели во время пожара 1724 года. Возродился монастырь только к 1744 году, тогда же была возведена монастырская стена. Как и во многих русских обителях, становление Вознесенского монастыря проходило в бедности, расширялся и отстраивался он постепенно, на протяжении нескольких веков. Сначала на его территории появились 18 келий для насельниц — простые деревянные избы, не было поначалу ни собственного храма, ни причта. Во время реформы Екатерины II в 1764 году монастырь получил статус штатного, третьеклассного, с суммой содержания в 375 рублей. Первая каменная церковь обители во имя Вознесения Господня была заложена в 1791 году в южной части монастыря.

At over 500 years old, the Fuli Bridge is yet another ancient stone bridge which can be found in the countryside around Yangshuo. When seen from a distance away, the bridge with its high arched back and the reflection created in the water form a perfect circle, called a full moon by the locals.

Night view of Shah Mosque, also known as Royal Mosque or Abbasi Great Mosque, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, standing in south side of Naghsh-e Jahan Square, in Isfahan, Isfahan province of Iran.
Shah mosque was built during the Safavid Empire, ordered by Abbas I of Persia. It is regarded as one of the masterpieces of Persian architecture in the Islamic era. Its construction began in 1611, and its splendor is mainly due to the beauty of its seven-colour mosaic tiles and calligraphic inscriptions.
The mosque is depicted on the reverse of the Iranian 20,000 rials banknote.

Verona's historic castle was a product of the Della Scala family dynasty under Cangrande II when he ruled Verona during the Middle Ages. The compact military structure is quite plain and was constructed of red brick in 1356. It is a good example of the Gothic structures built at that time. The castle has the fairytale M-shaped "merlons" or up and down brick rim around the outer castle walls. Seven towers gave the soldiers a good look out position and there is a keep or larger main fortified tower which would have served as a refuge in times of invasion. Within the castle walls there are four buildings with courtyards and gardens. At one time a moat ran around the outer rim of the fortified walls. Today the castle is used as the Castelvecchio Museum and the officer's club.
Строительство замка Кастельвеккио длилось с 1354 по 1376 год во времена власти Скалигеров. Изначально он был задуман как оборонительное сооружение и назывался Сан Мартино аль Понте (Castello di San Martino al Ponte). Это имя связано с церковью святого Мартина, которая располагалась в то время недалеко от замка. Замок был построен на месте бывшего древнеримского форта. Поскольку стены форта и фундамент по большей части уцелели, то они были использованы в качестве элементов средневекового замка. После того, как в 15 веке на холме Сан Пьетро был возведен новый замок, прежний превратился в «старый». Так за этим замком закрепилось название Кастельвеккио. В эпоху правления Наполеона в 18 веке здесь находилась резиденция императора. В результате восстания горожан Вероны против солдат Наполеона, которые занимались грабежами жителей, крепость была значительно повреждена. Это случилось в 1796 году. Далее потребовалось много времени на восстановление замка. Так, в ходе реконструкции были полностью восстановлены замковые башни. С 19 века замок был открыт для публичного посещения.
The Buonconsiglio Castle, splendid residence of the Prince Bishops and symbol of the city of Trento, is made up of different parts built in different ages: an older one, called Castelvecchio, includes Torre Aquila, with the frescoes of the Cycle of the Months, a masterpiece of Gothic art that takes us to the heart of courtly and peasant life at the end of the 14th century. Then there is a Renaissance part, the Magno Palazzo, commissioned by the Prince Bishop Bernardo Cles and richly frescoed, while another wing of the palace, the Giunta Albertiana, is from the Baroque age. During the First World War the trial against the irredentists Cesare Battisti, Fabio Filzi and Damiano Chiesa was held here.
Мощная цитадель с толстыми стенами, окнами-бойницами, оборонительными башнями, подъемным мостом – типичное строение XIII века в романском стиле. Внутри находились подземелья и камеры пыток. Через 200 лет была надстроена высокая Орлина башня (Torre dell’Aquila) – веяние готики; внутренние росписи башни – сцены времен года – ценнейший памятник готического искусства. В XVI в. к крепости был пристроен Парадный дворец (Magno Palazzo): фронтоны, галереи с колоннадами, росписи на темы античных сюжетов – это уже Ренессанс. Новая пристройка к замку – La Giunta Albertiana с элементами барокко была сделана в XVII.
Loi Krathong is a Siamese festival celebrated annually throughout the Kingdom of Thailand and in neighboring countries with significant Southwestern Thai cultures.
In 1892, on a picturesque climbing cliff - a red rock - at an altitude of 400 m above sea level, the foros church was laid. A church was built on the means of owner of the estate of the form, "Tea King" A.G. Kuznetsov in memory of "wonderful" events on October 17, 1888 at the Kursko-Kharkov Bil Station railwayWhen, during the crash, the royal family remained unharmed.
The place for the construction was chosen the most picturesque: the church was built on the red color of a sheer cliff, ripped away from the main array, surrounded by the greens of the forests. She seems to soar between heaven and earth.
The project developed an architect N.M. Chagin. The church was built in the Byzantine temple style, which is distinguished by a special technique of masonry from wide flat brick-dlinges and using numerous domes by type of Russian wooden temples. With her silhouette church reminds Moscow Churches of the late XVIII century.
Церковь Воскресения Христова была построена после железнодорожной катастрофы на станции Борки, в которую попал император Александр III со своей семьёй. К счастью, никто из членов императорской семьи не пострадал. Такое чудесное спасение стало поводом для возведения нового храма. Церковь Воскресения Христова была построена в 1892 году. Для ее возведения понадобилось четыре года. Оба яруса Церкви Воскресения Христова возведены в стиле византийских построек, а материалом послужил белый инкерманский камень. Девять куполов имеют разные размеры, что очень напоминает российские церкви ⅩⅦ столетия. Украшает церковь крыльцо, расписанное узорами, и стремящаяся высоко вверх колокольня. Использованный в строительстве каррарский мрамор, а также разноцветные витражи, придавали храму торжественность и нарядность.

The Bridge of Sighs’ name is based on a legend, which says that in Serenissima’s time the prisoners, crossing the bridge, sighing at the standpoint of seeing for the last time the outside world. However, the legend is totally unfounded, partly because there is almost nothing to see from that angle.
The name sighs indicate only the last breath of the prisoners in the free world because, once convicted in the kingdom of Dogi they never could go back.
The emblem displayed on the bridge shows that it was built in between the 16th and 17th century, in Istrian stone, white and elegant.
Today, its symbol is over-romantic in connection with the sight of the lover’s walks in the gondola. It is perhaps the biggest attractions in Venice, and it is said that if a couple passes under the Bridge of Sighs their love will last forever.
