Hi there,
This week's task for Macro Mondays was "Tradition."
Every year at Christmastime, I search for these very dark chocolate sticks that have mint centres. They are quite hard to find and sell out quickly, so I was delighted to score a box of them this year. HMM and Happy Holidays!
Thank you for looking and for leaving me a comment. Have a delightful day and week!

INDIEN, Itimad-ut-Daulah - Mausoleum
Das Itimad-ud-Daula-Mausoleum wurde in den Jahren zwischen 1622 und 1628 von Nur Jahan, der Hauptfrau des Mogulherrschers Jahangir, für ihren Vater Mirza Ghiyas Beg errichtet. Dieser stammte aus Persien und erhielt wegen seiner Verdienste als Schatzmeister und später als Wesir des Reiches den Ehrentitel Itimad ud-Daula („Stütze des Staates“). Mirza Ghiyas Beg war gleichzeitig Großvater des 5. Mogul-Herrschers Shah Jahan und von dessen Frau Mumtaz Mahal. Das vergleichsweise kleine, aber überaus kostbar ausgestattete Grabmal steht in Agra (Indien).
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a red day at Color my world Daily and the theme at Macro Mondays is tradition. As we all know, Red Lady just finished to set up her Christmas tree. She is super late : usually the Christmas tree is up at the beginning of December but this year is an exception. This delay is caused by a total lack of christmasy feeling this year ( blame it on the pandemic… ). However, the Christmas tree is one tradition Red Lady wants to maintain at any cost ! Even if she has to set up the tree at the very last minute, 23h55 on December the 23rd, she will do it !
Have beautiful day my friends ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Shortly (next week), I will take few days off from Flickr my friends ! I want to spend some time with my family, so I will not have time to take pictures. But dont you worry, I will be back in 2022 for sure !
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!

This year is different, but a good "different"...
After 2020 we appreciate more the time we spend with family and friends...
We invest in making memories that count...

Liu Fang Yuan, the Garden of Flowing Fragrance, is one of the largest Chinese gardens
outside China. Designed to create, preserve, and promote the rich and complex traditions of Chinese
culture, this authentic garden is a special place for visitors to feel inspired by the elegant harmony
of nature and poetry. Thanks to visionary landscape architects and artisans from China and the
United States, inspired historians, expert gardeners, and generous benefactors, Liu Fang Yuan
reflects today an exceptional combination of learning and beauty.
A Chinese garden is often compared to a work of art: It is like a scroll painting composed of carefully arranged scenes. As you stroll through the pathways and pavilions of Liu Fang Yuan, new vistas are revealed as if a scroll were being slowly unrolled. In the garden, as in a painting, several key elements play an important part in creating balance, meaning, and beauty in the composition.

For Macro Mondays: "Tradition"
Every year we buy a new ornament to decorate our house at Christmas. This time we bought this adorable little rocking horse.
MYANMAR ,Burma , Naypyidaw /Hauptstadt, die Friedenspagode-Uppatasanti-Pagode,
Am 27. März 2006 beging die Regierung erstmals den „Tag der Streitkräfte“ in der neuen Hauptstadt. Vor ausgewähltem Publikum und streng reglementierter Berichterstattung nahm General Than Shwe eine Parade von über 12.500 Soldaten ab und ermöglichte erstmals der Weltöffentlichkeit einen – wenn auch zensierten – Einblick in die nach wie vor halbfertige Verwaltungskapitale des Landes. Seitdem wurde der Ausbau zur neuen Hauptstadt in großem Tempo vorangetrieben. 2010 zählte die Stadt nach offiziellen Angaben bereits gut eine Million Einwohner. Unabhängige Beobachter halten deutlich geringere Zahlen für realistisch.. Ein Bericht in der Süddeutschen Zeitung über einen „Besuch in der Geistermetropole von Myanmar“ spricht von „eine[r] dröhnenden Leere, die wirklich wehtut“.
Der Bau der Uppatasanti-Pagode begann am 12. November 2006 mit der Pfahlzeremonie und wurde im März 2009 unter der Leitung von Than Shwe , dem Leiter des regierenden staatlichen Friedens- und Entwicklungsrates in Birma, abgeschlossen . Die Einladungskarte für die Pfahlzeremonie wurde mit dem Satz "Rajahtani Naypyidaw" (die königliche Hauptstadt, in der der Präsident wohnt) eröffnet. Die Pagode ist 30 cm kürzer als die Shwedagon-Pagode .
"Uppātasanti" bedeutet grob "Schutz vor Unglück". Es ist der Name eines Sūtra , der im frühen 16. Jahrhundert von einem Mönch hergestellt wurde. Es ist in Krisenzeiten zu rezitieren, insbesondere angesichts der ausländischen Invasion.
Uppātasanti Pagoda ; also called the "Peace Pagoda is a prominent landmark in Naypyidaw, the capital of Myanmar. The pagoda houses a Buddha tooth relic from China. It is nearly a same-sized replica of Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon and stands 99 metres (325 ft) tall.
The "New Harbour" in Bremerhaven not only attracts many tourists. It has always been a meeting place for tall ships. Unfortunately it is very quiet due to Corona. Only the local ships, like here the historic cog, are moored at the quay wall.
Der "Neue Hafen" in Bremerhaven zieht mittlerweile nicht nur viele Touristen an. Schon immer war es ein Treffpunkt für Großsegler. Leider ist es durch Corona sehr ruhig. Nur die einheimischen Schiffe, wie hier die historische Kogge liegen an der Kaimauer.
Le 8 décembre, les Lyonnais déposent des lumignons à leurs fenêtres afin d' honorer la Vierge Marie, et se retrouvent pour déambuler dans les rues. Ces petits pots sont très souvent réalisés par les enfants de maternelle et primaire.

This Christmas bauble was hand beaded with sequins and pins by me. I have a Christmas tradition. I bead Christmas baubles for a select group of friends every year.
Each bauble is 15 centimetres in diameter and contain hundreds of sequins, varying in number depending upon the complexity of the pattern and the type of sequins I use. Most sequins in this bauble are 5mm in diameter, except the stars which are 3mm and the butterfly sequins which are 12mm in diameter. Depending upon the colour of the sequin, I will use either a gold or a silver pin to attach it to the bauble. I always leave the flowers and stars until last, allowing a gap in the sequin chain to pin them in.
These baubles are smaller than some others I do, however because it is a complex pattern which starts from the inside and is worked outwards in ever larger circles, each bauble takes approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours per side.
It is however, a labour of love which I do to pass the time throughout the year.
Mitt bidrag till fotosöndag, tema tradition .
Enligt den julianska kalendern, som gällde på medeltiden – var den så kallade lussenatten 13 december den längsta natten på året i Sverige, vintersolståndet. Då härjade de mörka makterna som värst. Människorna höll sig vakna genom hela natten för att slippa drabbas av ondskans krafter. För att inte somna frossade människorna i mat.
For #MacroMondays and this week's theme #Tradition.
Happy Macro Monday!
Thanks for all your faves and comments everyone!
I really appreciate them!
At Pashley Manor Gardens you will discover 11 acres of beautiful borders and vistas – the culmination of a lifetime of passion for gardening, an appetite for beauty and an admiration of the tradition of the English Country garden. These graceful gardens, on the border of Sussex and Kent, are family owned and maintained – visitors often express delight at the attention to detail displayed throughout and the intimate, peaceful atmosphere.
All the ingredients of the English Country Garden are present – sweeping herbaceous borders, ha-ha, well maintained lawns, box hedges, espaliered rose walk, historic walled garden, inspiring kitchen garden, venerable trees and the Grade I listed house as a backdrop. The gardens are a haven for wildlife – bees, butterflies and small birds as well as moor hens, ducks and a black swan. Then, of course, the plants! Borders overflowing with perennials and annuals – the look changing through the seasons, but always abundantly filled, and each garden ‘room’ planted in a different colour theme.
Pashley is also renowned for fantastic displays of tulips, roses and dahlias. Our annual Tulip Festival features more than 48,000 tulips this year! During Special Rose Week over a hundred varieties of rose swathe the walls, climb obelisks and bloom in flower beds. Then in late summer our Dahlia Days event transforms the gardens once more with bountiful, brightly coloured dahlias in every border and pot.
Add to all this a Café and Terrace with excellent garden views, serving delicious homemade lunches, scones and cakes; Sculpture and Art Exhibitions; a Gift Shop with Plant Sales; and a friendly, knowledgeable team waiting to welcome you, and the recipe for a wonderful day out is complete.
