Sivasubramania Swami Kovil
A tower made up of intricate carvings of small statues rises high a height of about 80 feet and looms over you as if to protect the sacred temple underneath This Hindu temple is known as the Arulmihu Sivasubramania Swami Kovil. This temple has a long history of about 125 years and was built to worship Lord Muruga, otherwise known as God Kataragama. This is of great importance to the Hindu people as well as the Buddhist people who are found travelling in great numbers to devoutly worship at the shrine of Kataragama on the south of the island.
The most outstanding sight is the tower known as raja gopuram. This tower was built in 1994 fully embellished with colourful statues of Hindu deities. It is also accompanied by two smaller towers and a clock house.
The construction of this tower was followed by a celebration called Kumbabishekam which is a traditional ceremony that is held after rehabilitation or a reconstruction of a temple.

Basilica dei Santi Giovanni e Paolo is the largest church in Venice, even bigger than Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari. The church’s name translated into English is “Basilica of Saint John and Paul”. It was established by the Dominicans and it took nearly one century to build. It was finally consecrated on 12 November 1430. The Doge Jacopo Tiepolo had a vision in which he was told that part of his swampland was to be dedicated to God’s preachers. Thus, he donated this part of his land to the Dominicans and it is where the church currently stands.
Земля для этой церкви была, так же как и для Фрари, представленна по приказу Дожа Якопо Тьеполо. Первая церковь здесь была построена в 983 году, но впервые документально упоминается в 1184 году. Доминиканцам дали землю около 1230 года, и их первая церковь была завершена в 13 веке. Вскоре она оказалась слишком маленькой. Однако, работа над гораздо большей церковью началась в начале 14 века. В 1430 был завершен неф, и церковь была освящена в 1458-62. Церковь так же называют "Венецианский Пантеон", так как в ней находятся двадцать пять гробниц дожей.
One of the most outstanding structures within the compound of Wat Phra Kaew is the Phra Si Rattana Chedi (Sri Lankan style), which enshrines relics of the Buddha.
This main Stupa was erected by King Rama IV in 1855 and regarded as the most sacred in the Royal Chapel. In the hollow interior is a smaller stupas containing sacred Buddha relics. King Rama V had the exterior covered with golden mosaic tiles imported from Italy. This stupa was built in imitation of one of the three stupas at Wat Phra Si Sanphet which was the Royal Chapel in the old capital of Ayutthaya.
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.
Nuestra fugaz escapada de fin de semana para conocer la comarca de Tierra de Campos fue pasando mientras las horas raudas se iban consumiendo. La hora de regresar llegó dando fin a un finde intenso, 32 localizaciones publicadas (algunas se quedaron para mejor ocasión), tiempo tormentoso y mil recuerdos.
Pertenece a la orden de las Carmelitas Descalzas desde el siglo XVII. El paso de los años destruyó lo que fue una bella construcción barroca que aún mantiene en pie una bella portada y los restos de los que fueron sus muros.
Es una de las pistas de hielo al aire libre mas grandes y antiguas de Europa y se innauguró en 1870.
Este antiguo templo se abandonó construyendo uno nuevo dentro del núcleo, donde se llevaron las piedras nobles y los objetos de culto. Esta decisión parece tomada desde las incomodidades que creaba tener que desplazarse no poco trecho por un camino dificultoso. Con el cambio, lo que fue templo pasó a ser cementerio, condición que conserva actualmente.
Con sede en Madrid, España, está asimismo considerado como la institución cultural más importante del país, según el Observatorio de la Cultura de 2023

They were a little dark, the side altars in the Basilica dei Santi Giovanni e Paolo in Venice. But then the sun sent its rays into the interior of the beautiful church and penetrated the darkness. And if you were very quiet, you could hear Him speaking....in the church in the light of the sun.

The Khan's Palace in Bakhchisaray was built in the 16th century and served as a residence for a succession of Crimean Khans. The Crimean Khanate was a Turkic vassal state of the Ottoman Empire from 1478 to 1774 -- the longest-lived of the Turkic khanates that succeeded the empire of the Golden Horde.

Строительство дворца началось при Менгли-Гирее I в 1503 г. параллельно с новой Ханской столицей, к этому периоду времени относится возведение Демир-Капы. Но основные работы по его созданию велись в период правления Сахиб-Гирея I: с 1532 по 1551 гг. было построено большинство прекрасных зданий.
Однако говорить, что возведение его закончили незадолго до смерти Сахиб-Гирея, было бы неправильно. Фактически каждый из ханов добавлял что-то свое – так и продолжалось до ликвидации Крымского ханства в 1785 г. Во время русско-турецкой войны 1735-1739 гг. в 1736 г. Бахчисарай был взят русскими войсками, а ханская резиденция сожжена по приказу фельдмаршала Миниха.

El teatro Victoria de Talavera de la Reina (Toledo) se levantó sobre el solar del antiguo corral de comedias del siglo XVII que fue derribado en 1892.
La fachada de tres alturas y composición simétrica es una minuciosa combinación de arquitectura modernista, en la que destacan los balcones metálicos historiados, los apliques de hierro y la azulejería.

"The Murtoa No 1 Grain Store, also known as the Murtoa Stick Shed is the largest rustically-built structure in the world. It was a 'temporary' grain shed, 270m long and 60m wide, built in late 1941 and early 1942, using 560 unmilled mountain ash tree trunks. [Australian heritage site: Murtoa No 1 Grain Store]
Murtoa Stick Shed, formally known as the Number 1 Emergency Grain Store, is a large grain store (silo) in Murtoa, a town in the Wimmera region of Victoria, Australia. It is located adjacent to the railway line in western Victoria’s vast wheatbelt. 560 upright poles, some 80-foot-long, went into building the cathedral-like structure. The joints are held together with galvanised hoop iron, allowing it to move in the wind. Many more poles went into fabricating the roof trusses and bracing. The slender mountain ash poles were probably salvaged from native forests at Powelltown, Noojee, Erica and the Otways burnt during the 1939 bushfires. The Murtoa Stick Shed, as it became known, is 870 feet long, 198 feet wide and 62 feet 10 inches high at the ridge, covering an area of 170,000 square feet and with a capacity of 3.4 million bushels or 95,000 tonnes. Australia experienced a wheat glut in the late 1930s as traditional export markets of Great Britain and Western Europe evaporated due to a shift in world trade and restrictions to shipping. By the outbreak of the War in 1939, the Australian wheat industry produced between 150 and 160 million bushels per year, of which 100 million had been traditionally exported. But only 48 of the 160 silos planned under the 1935 Victorian Silo Scheme had been completed.
The Murtoa Stick Shed was hurriedly built over four months between September 1941 and January 1942 and filled with grain within six months of its construction. The wheat stayed in storage until 1944. It was the first emergency bulk wheat storage shed built in Victoria and is the only one remaining of its type in Australia. Wartime shortages meant the builders had to rely upon and adapt traditional bush construction techniques. It’s claimed to be the largest “rustically-built” structure in the world. The Forests Commission Victoria (FCV) produced over half a million lineal feet of poles from State forests mainly for emergency storage of wheat in 1941/42." (Wikipedia)
