Nilo-Stolobenskaya pustyn (Nilo-Stolobensky Desert) s a monastery on Stolobny Island on Lake Seliger. This monastery arose on the site of the feat of the Monk Nile, the Stolobensky miracle worker, whose memory the Russian Orthodox Church performs on December 20.
Over the five centuries of its existence, the monastery, initially extremely poor, survived the heyday and special favor of the tsar’s family, plundered during the years of Soviet rule, turned into a labor commune, then a place for juvenile offenders and a camp for Polish prisoners of war, a hospital, a retirement home, an architectural monument and a camp site .
Monastic life in the Nile Desert revived after 1990, when the desert was returned to the Church. As before, Neil Stolobensky blesses the island, when on the memorial days the inhabitants of the monastery pass the procession with his relics, and recently the cell icon of the saint, which was considered lost, has returned to its place.
Curiosidades : No parecen existir citas anteriores en España antes de 1968, y la primera homologada es de 1993, pero desde entonces han aumentado con rapidez. A pesar de que que muchas de las observaciones no se comunican al suponer que corresponden a ejemplares escapados de cautividad —ya que la especie es frecuente en parques zoológicos—, se tienen ya 25 citas homologadas en España hasta 2004, correspondientes a un total de 43 ejemplares. Los avistamientos se distribuyen a lo largo de todo el año, con mayor frecuencia en pleno invierno (diciembre-enero) y algo menos en primavera (hacia abril) y otoño (septiembre).
The statue is located in the little square named Piazzetta Nilo. During the Roman Empire in that area of Naples lived many Egyptians. They decided to erect a statue of the Nile god. The statue was lost with the collapse of the Roman Empire. It was recovered many centuries later headless. In 1647 it was placed in the present location with a new head. In the 1950s some parts of the statue were stolen including the little Sphinx. In 2013 a special branch of the Carabinieri found the little Spinx in Austria and after a restoration it has been set again in its original place.
The Nile is a permanent surprise.
Life around the estuary is calm and pleasant, as is its flow. People live facing the river and any distinction seems convenient to make themselves stand out.

ieri, in giro per il centro antico di Napoli.
Un unico raggio di sole illuminava il Nilo, il resto in ombra. Praticamente un bianco e nero naturale in una foto a colori!
