Coventry Transport Museum opened in 1980, after it became clear that the road transport collection was outgrowing the space it occupied in the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum. The Museum’s current collection of vehicles is acknowledged as being one of the finest in the world, and the largest in public ownership.
The Museum’s collection consists of motor cars, commercial vehicles, cycles and motorcycles. In addition, extensive collections of automobilia, books, photographs and a wealth of other archive material is held and conserved at the Coventry History Centre at the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum.
Conserved remains of a gothique castle, founded in early 14th Century. It stood on the rebel side in the Hussite side, but its owner switched sides in the last phase of the conflict, and the castle was unsuccesfuly besieged by Hussites in 1434. The owning lord is mentioned a few weeks later as one of the knights, who decided the battle of Lipany, in which the Hussites were definitely crushed. The castle was used together with a newly built baroque manor until 1621, when both were plundered and burned down by imperial soldiers. The manor was quickly restored, but the castle was abandoned, and parts of it were systematically demolished, after the whole county was sold to a enterpreneur. When his son, after he inherited the castle, is elevated to a noble in 1865, he sees himslef to be a successor to the knight tradition of the castle, stops its destruction and begins conservation efforts. In the communist era the ruin was statically conserved in the then-typical way, which was not the most sensitive, it was returned together with the manor to their last owners in 1990ies, and is freely accessible today, with deep cellars and tight tunnels undergrounds.
These are best conserves and marmalades I have ever had. June Taylor, a very sweet lady, makes all her conserves, marmalades, and more in small batches with seasonal fruits, using minimal sugar to let the fruits' true flavors shine and no commercial pectin.

The future of our planet is bleak if we don't make some changes. Every little bit makes a difference, even changing incandescent lightbulbs to compact flourescent lamps.
So far, over 16 million bulbs have been purchased, which is the equivalent of keeping over 100,000 cars off the road. Since the average American home is responsible for twice the greenhouse emissions as a car, these bulbs are an easy way to make a dent in our carbon footprint.

La Cité interdite (Chinois : 故宫; pinyin : gùgōng) est le palais impérial au sein de la Cité impériale de Pékin dont la construction fut ordonnée par Yongle, troisième empereur Ming, et réalisée entre 1407 et 1420. Ce palais, d'une envergure inégalée — il s'étend sur une superficie de 72 ha — fait partie des palais les plus anciens et les mieux conservés de Chine. De nos jours, il est devenu un musée qui conserve les trésors impériaux de la civilisation chinoise ancienne.
Ce site monumental a plusieurs dénominations :
Son nom complet est la « Cité pourpre interdite » (traduction du chinois Zǐjìn Chéng, 紫禁城), en référence à l'étoile nommée Zǐwēi Xīng (紫微星, la petite étoile violette) dans l'astronomie chinoise, c'est-à-dire l'étoile polaire de l'astronomie occidentale. En effet, comme le palais impérial se trouve au centre de Pékin et représentait le centre administratif de l'État, on lui donna un nom évoquant l'étoile qui est au centre de la rotation du firmament céleste.
Le nom le plus courant est « Cité interdite », qui vient du fait qu'en tant que résidence des empereurs chinois, de leurs familles et de ceux qui étaient à leur service, son accès était interdit au peuple.
En Chine actuellement, ce site est le plus souvent appelé Gùgōng (故宫), ce qui signifie « l'ancien palais ».
Le musée qui est actuellement abrité dans ces murs est appelé « Musée du Palais ».
Description
Depuis le début du quinzième siècle, le cœur de Pékin se trouve autour de la Cité interdite, aussi appelée Palais impérial des Ming et des Qing. Il s'agit du plus vaste complexe architectural de Chine : une véritable ville dans la Cité impériale, dans laquelle l'Empereur de Chine et son entourage étaient quasiment assignés à résidence, ne sortant de l'enceinte que dans de très rares occasions.
Elle couvre 72 ha dont 50 ha de jardins, qui s'étendent sur 960 m de long du nord au sud, et de 750 m de large d'est en l'ouest, entourée d'une muraille de 10 m de haut, elle-même cernée d'une douve large de 52 mètres.
La cité compte selon la légende, 9 999 pièces (en réalité, 8704, d'après une enquête menée en 1973). Le chiffre de 9 999, s'explique par le fait que selon la traditon, seules leurs divinités avaient le droit de construire un palais comprenant 10 000 pièces. Les hommes, de ce fait, essayaient ainsi de se rapprocher aussi près que possible de leur idéal de perfection. Le nombre 10 000 représente symboliquement « une infinité dénombrable » en Chine.
La construction de la Cité interdite a duré 14 ans et plus d'un million d'ouvriers réduits à l'esclavage y auraient travaillé. Entre 1420 et 1911, un total de 24 empereurs y ont résidé. Avant 1924, année où elle a été ouverte au public, personne d'autre que l'empereur et sa cour n'avait le droit de s'en approcher ni même de la regarder. Aujourd'hui, la Cité interdite est l'un des sites les plus visités en Chine.
L’architecture a divisé la Cité Interdite en deux parties :
La Cour extérieure (partie sud), constituait la partie officielle de la cité, où le souverain recevait ses ministres et présidait les grandes cérémonies officielles. Elle abrite notamment : la salle de l’Harmonie Suprême (Taihe), la salle de l’Harmonie Parfaite (Zhonghe) et la Salle de l’Harmonie Préservée (Baohe), ainsi que les bâtiments latéraux principaux, dont la salle de la Gloire Littéraire (Wenhua) et la Salle des Prouesses Militaires (Wuying).
Elle est parcourue d'ouest en est par une rivière artificielle dénommée Jinshui He (c'est-à-dire : la « Rivière aux Eaux d'Or ») provennant d'une dérivation des douves et servant aussi bien de décoration que de réservoir d'eau en cas d'incendie. Son rôle à également pour but de servir de dernier rempart symbolique protégeant la Salle de l'Harmonie Suprême.
La cour intérieure (partie nord), formait la partie privée, et servait donc aussi bien de cabinet de travail pour l’empereur, que d’appartements à la famille impériale et aux concubines. Elle comprend surtout le palais de la Pureté Céleste (Qianqing), la salle de l’Union (Jiaotai) et le palais de la Tranquillité Terrestre (Kunning), qui sont entourés respectivement par les « six Palais de l’Est » et les « Six Palais de l’Ouest ».
Construction (1406-1420) :
Le lieu où se trouve la cité interdite faisait partie de la cité impériale mongole Khanbalik depuis la dynastie Yuan. Quand la dynastie Ming lui succéda, Hongwu le premier empereur transféra la capitale à Nankin, en 1369, et ordonna que le palais mongol soit rasé. Son fils Zhu Di fut nommé Prince de Yan, et s’établit à Pékin. Un palais princier fut construit dans cette ville. En 1402, Zhu Di renversa son neveu Jianwen et devint empereur sous le nom de Yongle. La capitale retourna à Pékin.
La construction de la Cité Interdite commença en 1406, sur les plans d'architectes en chef comme : Cai Xin et d'un eunuque annamite Ruan An, assistés des ingénieurs en chef que furent Kuai Xiang et Lu Xiang. Les travaux durèrent 14 années en mobilisant environ 200 000 ouvriers. L’axe principal du nouveau palais est tracé à l’est de l’ancien palais des Yuan, dans l’intention de « tuer » l’ancien emplacement à l’ouest, selon les principes feng shui. De même, la terre issue de l’excavation des douves a été amassée au nord du palais pour créer une colline artificielle, la colline du parc Jingshan (surnommée la Colline de Charbon), protégeant le palais de la mauvaise influence du nord.

They have built terraces on several fields, and they use a mulch tilage sytsem to keep residue on the surface of their fields to stem erosion. They have also planted grass filter strips along creeks to protect water quality.
