Grinzing
Grinzinger village church, sky road (Himmelstraße)
To 1891 independent vintner community, since then part of the 19th district of Vienna, since 1114 a large village. Named after the personal name Grinco, by the Turks and the Frenche several times destroyed, in the 19th century vintner location, excursion site and a summer resort, today well-known Heurigenort (numerous wine taverns). Townscape with village character (under monument protection) in a valley between vine-clad foothills of the Wienerwald (Vienna Woods).
Due to Emperor Probus, already in 276 AD the first vines were planted on the hills around Grinzing. This botanical avocation of Roman legionaries brought the little village at the gates of Vienna prosperity and much, much later even international fame - because in this graceful landscape grows an excellent wine! To get away occasionally with all military conflicts of the last 700 years, the Grinziger winemakers laid underground escape routes to their wine cellars, them bringing even to their beloved Grinzinger church.
Alley behind the "Old Preßhaus (winepress house)"
The former "Old Preßhaus", Grinzing's oldest wine tavern, too, had a passage under the earth. Since 1527 in the mighty, impressive cellar the "young wine" was ausgeschenkt (poured out or served). In front of a magnificent 250 year old wine press and large, old barrels one here could experience Heurigengemütlichkeit (wine tavern comfortableness). This typical Viennese form of companionableness, since the times of Maria Theresa officially as "Winery" designated, is for the Viennese a small, timeless piece of luck.
Grinzing
Cobenzlgasse
Grinzing was a separate municipality until 1892 and is now a part of Vienna in the 19th District of Vienna Döbling and one of the 89 Vienna Katastralgemeinden (cadastral communities).
Grinzing is in the northwest of Vienna and it is with an area of 613.52 ha the largest part of the district Döbling. In the northeast it borders on the Josefsdorf, then the border runs along the Wildgrube and the Schreiberbach (brook) to the east and then branches off along the Springsiedelgasse and the Neugebauerweg to the south.
Grinzing in winter
Along the hunger mountain road (Hungerbergstraße) the border to Unterdöbling follows the course of the Kaasgraben, Grinzing from Sievering separating. Over the Road to Heaven (Himmelstraße) and the Spießweg the border finally runs in a north-westerly direction to the city limits, Grinzing from Weidling (Lower Austria) separating.
Cobenzlgasse
Grinzing is in large areas marked of wooded ridges of the Vienna Woods. At the border to Lower Austria is also the highest mountain of Vienna, the Hermannskogel. In addition, here are some very well-known mountains like Reisenberg, Latisberg, Vogelsangberg, Hunger Mountain (Hungerberg) and Pfaffenberg. In the parts of the Grinziger Vienna Woods are also several streams, such as the Schreiberbach in Wildgrube which runs unspoilt until shortly before Nußdorf. Additionally, originates to the west of the Reisenberg the Reisenbergbach (which from the border of the village is administered as stream channel) and in the western part of Grinzing lies the headwaters of the Arbesbach. Another characteristic of Grinzing are also the remaining vines, which are found especially on Reisenberg and Hungerberg.
Road to Heaven/Cobenzlgasse
Besides the numerous wine taverns in particular the Grinziger church and the Kaasgrabenkirche (church) are worth seeing. In the expansive part of the Vienna Woods is also based the Habsburgwarte on the Hermannskogel, the Karl Lueger Memorial, the restaurant "Cobenzel" on Reisenberg, as well as the romantic forest-Biedermeier cemetery on the slopes of Mount Kahlenberg, amongst other things, with the graves of the "most beautiful woman of the Congress of Vienna" as well as various high aristocrats of the era of Metternich. A special treasure represents the organ in the parish church of Grinzing.
On the Grinzinger cemetery are the graves of Gustav Mahler, Alma Mahler-Werfel, Attila Hörbiger, Paula Wessely, Peter Alexander, Heimito von Doderer, Ida Krottendorf and Thomas Bernhard.

The wine taverns
Winery "Bach Hengl", Sandgasse
The history of the Viennese wine tavern actually goes back to the Roman Emperor Probus, who allowed his legionaries wine cultivation in the provinces in the year 276. In the Middle Ages also there are numerous sources that relate to the wine, such as a clerk, who advised his contemporaries" never to drink at a stretch more than six measures (liters) as the temperance is a really godly virtue".
Certainly, at that time, one was not yet driving with the car... No medieval ruler adopted that many laws regarding the wine, the cultivation of wine and the wine law as Charlemagne.
Winery "Bach Hengl", Sandgasse
Another Emperor, Joseph II of Habsburg, in 1784 finally created the first generally accepted statutory basis for the wine tavern, according to which each wine grower (Weingärtner) was allowed pour out self-produced juice of the grape.
The word Heuriger has a double meaning and means both the wine of the last harvest, in November of the following year becoming the 'old' one, and the place where you drink it.
Winery "Berger", Road to Heaven
Currently in Vienna of about 300 winemakers on 700 hectares viticulture is operated. 90 percent of Viennese wine harvest of about 30,000 hectoliters are white wine, the rest red wine: a total of 12 million quarters.
Batik Gedog is a traditional painting Batik from Tuban - East Java. Kerek, a region of Tuban is well known as central of Batik Gedog. Mostly the Batik Gedog’s artisan is come from Kerek.
This kind of Indonesian Batik is a masterpiece of cultural creation which the existence still accepted by society until now. There’s many value of art and cultural content that represented by the Batik, so that this kind of batik have its own special characteristic.
Tuban, as one of the town which located in the east of Java Island, has an unique culture. It’s called unique, because in this town there are 3 of culture that influenced the society. That 3 of culture influencing one to another, and they are still exist and develop. That 3 of culture are Majapahit Kingdom, Islam and Chinese.

Mevlana Dergahı (Dervish Lodge) which is presently used as a museum formerly the Rose Garden of the Seljuks Palace it was given as a gift to Mevlana's father Sultanü'l-Ulema Bahaaeddin Veled by Sultan Alaeddin Keykubad
When Sultanü'l-Ulema died on 12 January 1231, he was buried in the present grave which is in the mausoleum. This was the first burial ever to take place in the Rose Garden.
After the death of Sultanü'l-Ulema, his friends and disciples approached Mevlana and expressed their wish to build a maussoleum over his grave. Mevlana refused this request remarking "How could there be a better mausoleum than the sky itself?).However when he died on 17 December 1273, his son Sultan Veled accepted the request of those who wanted to build a maussoleum over Mevlana's grave.The mausoleum called "Kubbe-i Hadra" (Green mausoleum) was built by the architect Bedrettin from Tebriz for 130.000 Seljuk dirhem (currency) on four elephant feet (thick columns). After this date, the construction activities never ceased and continued in stages up to the end of the 19th century.
Mevlevi Derhgahı (Dervish Lodge) and the mausoleum started to function as a museum in 1926 under the name of Konya Museum of Historical Works. In 1954 the display pattern of the museum was once more taken up and it was renamed as the Mevlevi Museum.
While the Museum originally covered an area of 6.500m² together with its garden, with the section expropriated later and designed as a rose garden, it has today reached a size of 18.000m²
The courtyard of the museum is entered from "Dervişan Kapısı" (The gate of the Dervishes). There are dervish cells along the north and west sides of the courtyard. The south side, after Matbah and Hürrem Pasha Mausoleums, terminates with the gate of Hamuşan (Sealed Lips) which opens to Üçler cemetrey. On the eastern side of the courtyard there are mausoleums of Sinan Pasha, Fatma Hatun and Hasan Pasha, the Samahane (Ritual Prayer Hall) next to them and the small mosque (mesjidt) section and the main building where the graves of Mevlana and his family members are also housed.
The courtyard is given a special flavor with the roofed washing fountain (şadırvan) built by Sultan Yavuz Sultan Selim in 1512 and the "Şeb-i Arus" (means nuptial night or the night Mevlana passed away) pool and the fountain which is located in the northern part of the court and called Selsebil.
"Tilavet" Chamber (Quran Reading And Chanting)
"Tilavet" is an Arabic word which means reading the quran with a beautiful voice and the correct rhythm. The room takes its name from its function in the past. At present it is used as the Calligraphy Department.
The calligraphy section contains the framed works of famous calliagraphs of their time such as Mahmud Celaleddin, Mustafa Rakım, Hulusi, Yesarizade as well as a gilt relief frame done by Sultan Mahmut II. The couplet in Farsi engraved on the silver door with the calligraphy of Yesarizade Mustafa İzzet Efendi says:
Kabetü'l-uşşâk bâşed in mekam
Her ki nakıs amed incâ şod temam
(Let this be the Kaaba of the minstrels. Who ever enters here in half, finds himself whole)
Huzur-ı Pir (Mausoleum)
The hall of the mausoleum is entered from a silver door which was donated in 1599 by Hasan Pasha, who is the son of Sokollu Mehmet Pasha. Here, the oldest copies of the famous works of Mevlana the "Mesnevi" and "Divan-ı Kebir" are displayed in two glass fronted cabinets. The mausoleum hall is roofed with three small domes The third dome which is also called the skin dome joins, the green dome in the north.
The hall is bordered with a platform on its east, south and north sides. In the north where there is a two level platform, the sarcophagi of 6 Sacred horasan men are placed. Right at the feet of these, the Target Stone, made for İlhanlı King Ebu said Bahadır Khan.
There are also two framed inscriptions which are important as they reflect the thoughts and philosophy of Mevlana. The first frame is in Turkish and says:
"Either seem as you are
Or be as you seem"
Hz. Mevlâna
Second frame is a quatrain of Mevlana in Persian. In translation it reads:
"Come, Come who or whatever you are
Should you be an unbeliever, a Magian or a pagan still come
Our lodge is not a lodge of despair
With hundred repentions unheeded you may be,still, come"
Hz. Mevlana
On the high platform bordering the mausoleum hall on the east and south there are 55 graves, ten of which belong to ladies and the whole group belongs to the family members of Mevlana, and his father. There are ten other graves which belong to people such as Hüsameddin Çelebi, Selahaddin Zerkubi and Sheyh Kerimüddin who had reached high ranks in the sect of Mevlevi.
Right under the Green Dome there are the graves of Mevlana and his son Sultan Veled. The double hunched marble sarcophagus over the graves was donated in 1565 by Süleyman the Magnificent.The quilt embrodieried with gold thread placed over the sarcophagus is a Seljuk masterpiece and was made for Mevlana in 1274. When Süleyman the Magnificent had a new marble sarcophagus made over the graves of Mevlana and son, the original wood one was removed and put over the grave of Mevlana's father.
Semâ-Hâne (Ritual Hall)
The Semahane section together with the small mosque was built by Süleyman the Magnificent in the XVIth century. Semah ceromonies were continued at this ritual hall until 1926, when the Dergah (Dervish lodge) was converted to a museum. The Naat Pew in the Hall, the place where the musicians set (Mutrib cells) and the sections for men and women are preserved in their original state, while metal and glass objects and musical instruments of the Mevlevi are displayed in glassed cabinets and rugs of historical value are hung on appropriate walls of the Semahane.
Mosque
The small mosque or the mesjidt is entered from the Çerağ (apprentice) Gate. There are additional small entrances from the Semahane and the Huzur - Pir, the cemetrey. The place for the müezzin and the Mesnevihan Pew are kept in their original state.
Extremely valuable rug and wooden door samples are displayed on the south wall of the mosque and in 10 glassed cabinets put around this space, significant examples of binding, calligrapy and gilding are exhibited.
Rug And Fabric Section - Dervish Cells
There are 17 small cells, each with a small dome and chimney around the west and north sides of the front court of the Mevlana Lodge. These cells were built in 1584 by Sultan Murat III to house the dervishes.
Four cells to the right of the entrance gate are at present used as a ticket window and administration offices . The first two of the 13 cells to the left of the gate used as "Postnişin" and "Mesnevi-han" cells are kept in their origanal form and presented to the public.
The last two cells at the end are allocated to the very valuable book collections donated by Abdülbaki Gölpınarlı and Dr. Mehmed Önder, and they are used as a library.
The partition walls of the remaining 9 cells were removed providing two interconnected large corridors. In one of these corridors old rugs of historical value from regions famous for their rugs such as Kula, Gördes, Uşak and Kırşehir are displayed while the other has old rugs from districts of Konya such as Ladik, Karaman, Karapınar and Sille which are centres of rug weaving. Display windows built in the window and door sills of these cells display artefacts of Mevlevi ethnography such as "Pazarcı maşası", "Mütteka", "Nefir" which were transferred to the museum from the Lodge, and the extremely valuable Bursa fabrics from the museum collection
Matbah (Kitchen) Section
The kitchen is on the south west corner of the museum. It was built by Sultan Murat II in 1548. Until the lodge was converted to a museum in 1926 the meals were being provided from here.
This section was restored in 1990 and the display was rearranged with mannequins. Cooking, the basic function of the kitchen and the "somat" the special table routine is demonstrated with mannequins. Another such illustration was attempted, to show the other function of the kitchen which is related to the initiations of the novice, called "Nev-ni-yaz", and involves practice of Semah.

All the time I was photographing these the spider kept a proprietorial arm over the ladybird; I went for a short walk and when I came back both had disappeared. I guess the ladybird accepted the spider's invitation.
Joe contemplates the Cotswold head I used to use on this body.
It is a pretty darned good knock-off, these guys really come as close as you probably can come without risking getting sued into oblivion by Hasbro, but I'm happy to have finally replaced it with a proper vintage head.
I customized the Cots head further by painting on a scar and repainting the lips to make them stand out a bit more (I think I overdid it a bit, and am not really happy with how those lips came out) and painted over the "shine" in his eyes to make him look more vintage).
This head is now available for sale or for trade! Contact me if you are interested!
Don't worry, i'm not dead. I've been traveling a lot these past few weeks so I haven't had time to edit or update anything. Within the next few days i'll have A LOT of flicks up..
