View on the Romanesque church in Tum from the reconstruction of an old settlement :)
The old settlement in Tum is the remains of an early medieval ducal and castellan stronghold that existed from the end of the 8th century to the middle of the 14th century. Located in the Bzura valley, at the end of the 10th century, the stronghold was transformed by the Piast dynasty into a typically defensive structure. This was because a trade route from Poznań and Gniezno to Mazovia and further on to Ruthenia ran through here. A strong team of mounted warriors was stationed there. The current stronghold has been reconstructed in accordance with the realities of the 13th century.

Widok na kolegiatę w Tumie z wałów obronnych dawnego grodziska :)
Grodzisko w Tumie jest pozostałością wczesnośredniowiecznego grodu książęcego i kasztelańskiego funkcjonującego od końca VIII wieku do połowy XIV stulecia. Leżący w dolinie Bzury gród, u schyłku X wieku został przez Piastów przekształcony w obiekt o charakterze typowo obronnym. Tędy bowiem wiódł szlak handlowy z Poznania i Gniezna na Mazowsze i dalej na Ruś. W grodzie stacjonowała silna drużyna wojowników konnych. Obecne grodzisko zostało zrekonstruowane zgodnie z realiami XIII wieku.
Kon Tum Cathedral is a masterpiece of wooden Catholic architecture completed in 1918. Its design is a combination of Roman architecture and Ba Na styled stilt-house. It is located in the centre of Kon Tum near the seminary.
Following the local tradition, plumeria is planted in the right, and pots of yellow Chrysanthemum are placed at the entrance.
near the end of my stay i was given permission to go along on alms round with the monks. i walked behind them, obviously not able to accept any alms, but took any food that wouldn't fit into their bowls. i had to carry around a big bag for this, leaving me with only one hand to take my photos. this was one of the first people to give alms and by far the best capture of the day.
tum boon means "making merit."

The Collegiate Church of St. Mary and St. Alexius (Polish: Kolegiata w Tumie) is an encastellated Romanesque church located in the village of Tum near Łęczyca, in central Poland. It was constructed out of granite blocks and sandstone in the mid-12th century.
The church was built using the opus emplectum technique. It has the form of an aisled basilica with galleries, a twin-tower west façade, and two apses (west and east). It was reconstructed in the 15th, 18th and mid-20th centuries; during the latest reconstruction the church returned to its simpler Romanesque form and round turrets at the east were added. The main (north) portal is sculpted and dates back to the first half of 12th century.
The temple stands on top of a holm or islet which was once surrounded by wetlands and marshes. There is evidence from a papal bull issued by Pope Innocent II that a wooden monastery of the early Benedictine Brothers pre dated the church by at least a century.Older excavations and historical analysis suggested that the monastery was founded by Boleslaus I, the first King of Poland, and Saint Adalbert of Prague in approximately 997 AD. However, more recent studies prove that it was most likely founded during the Restoration period, in the second half of the 11th century. The monastery was demolished to make way for the current church.
Historian and painter Władysław Łuszczkiewicz noted that the islet (and the nearby mound) served as a small fortified stronghold, or gord.[5] He justified his claim with the location particulars, as churches would be founded in the vicinity of populated settlements or castles than on isolated land.
The construction was initiated by Janik, Archbishop of Gniezno, in around 1149.[4] According to a legend, the local townsfolk from Łęczyca believed that the dimples in stonework were made by the hands of Devil Boruta, who attempted to destroy the church. The unfinished structure was consecrated on 21 May 1161 by officials and princes.

Çeltik tarlalarında kalan sapları, yani çeltik anızlarını yakmışlar ki tüm Biga ovasında göz gözü görmüyor. Eh Karabiga da nasibini alıyor bu durumdan, ben de. Çünkü enfes bir mistik ortam sağlıyor fotoğraf için. İki balıkçı ağ kontrol ediyor kısmetinde bir şeyler var mı diye. Biri ağa bakarken diğeri kürekleri siya ederek yol almalarını sağlıyor. Oturduğum banktan biraz geri çekilip ben de ha gayret diyorum.
