Well, shrine cat, really. Temple sounds nicer. She paused for several moments like this in front of the food bowl tucked behind the wooden pillar, as if savoring the tantalizing moment before devouring what it contained.
The Vittala Temple or Vitthala Temple in Hampi is an ancient monument that is well-known for its exceptional architecture and unmatched craftsmanship. It is considered to be one of the largest and the most famous structure in Hampi. The temple is located in the north eastern part of Hampi, near the banks of the Tungabhadra River.
The iconic temple has amazing stone structures such as the incomparable stone chariot and the fascinating musical pillars. This predominant monument of Hampi is a major attraction of the ruined town and is a must-see for visitors and tourists.

The Galtaji Monkey Temple near Jaipur, in Rajasthan, India is a popular tourist and Hindu pilgrim destination. The site, which dates back to the 1500's, consists of a series of Hindu temples built into a narrow crevice in the hills that surround Jaipur. Water from a natural spring flows into a series of sacred pools (kunds) in which pilgrims bathe and youths play. The site is also famous for the numerous monkeys (rhesus macaques and langur monkeys) that live there and entertain the visitors.

Located near Siem Reap, the Angkor Archaeological Park is an amazing collection of temple complexes and other structures. The most popular tourist destination is Angkor Wat, but there are hundreds of others that are worth touring and photographing. This Pre Rup Hindu temple, completed in 961, was built with brick, laterite, and sandstone. Personally, I think Pre Rup is one of the most architecturally interesting structures in the Angkor Park complex.
Jerash , Jordan
The Jerash Temple of Artemis is a Roman temple in Jerash, Jordan. The temple was built on one of the highest points and dominated the whole city. Ruins of the temple are still one of the most remarkable monuments left of the ancient city of Gerasa (Jerash).
Construction of the temple was finished in CE 150, during the reign of Emperor Antoninus Pius.
The building had a hexastyle portico with twelve columns, of which eleven are still standing. Corinthian capitals decorating the columns are very well preserved. The temple walls had three entrances decorated with three Corinthian pilasters.
The Temple of the Sun (on the right) and of the Moon (on the left) in Cathedral Valley. It was an area of social isolation. We saw no other people while we visited this location. If you zoom in and find the sign by the road in front of the monolith on the right, you can get a sense of how enormous these formations are. The white stream circling around the Temple of the Sun and heading toward the Temple of the Moon is a dry wash.
We are home now in the Seattle area. Feels odd that the streets are so emply and quiet.
The Temple of Heaven is located in southern Beijing. It is included in the UNESCO world heritage list in 1998. With an area of 2.7 million square meters, it is the largest of its kind in the country. Built in 1420, the 18th year of the reign of Ming Emperor Yongle, the temple was where emperors went to worship heaven for good harvests.

The village of Temple was once the headquarters of the Knights Templar in Scotland from whom it takes its name, previously being known as Balantrodoch. The land was granted to the Templars by king David I in 1153 and held by them until the order was supressed in 1312.
The ruins of the old parish church date from the early 14th century.
I recently did a 4-day camping trip in the Eastern Sierras. We camped out at the Big Pine Creek Campground. On one of the days, we hiked the Big Pine Creek North Fork trail.

The Bahai are a curious religion. They are a monotheistic religion, have no priests, believe in repeated revelations with the one of their founder Baha*Ullah being the last one so far, Moses, Jesus and Mohammed being others. They believe in uniting all religions and humanity peacefully but don't try to convert others. If more religions were like this, this world would be far more peaceful.
Unluckily, they are not very successful in terms of membership. The temple in Langenhain close to Frankfurt is the single house of worship in the whole of Europe. There are about two handful of them worldwide.
This is a large temple famous for zazen. The one in the picture is the annex of the temple (Eiheiji).

Wikipedia: Ancient Siam (also known as Ancient City, Thai: เมืองโบราณ, Mueang Boran) is a museum park constructed by Lek Viriyaphant and occupying over 200 acres (0.81 km2) in the shape of Thailand.
Ancient Siam is dubbed as the world's largest outdoor museum. Close to the Crocodile Farm in Samut Prakan Province, the 320-hectare "city" features 116 structures of Thailand's famous monuments and architectural attractions. The grounds of Ancient Siam correspond roughly to the shape of the kingdom, with the monuments lying at their correct places geographically. Some of the buildings are life-size replicas of existing or former sites, while others are scaled down. Still others are "creative designs," and not replicas of any historical structure.
The replicas were constructed with the assistance of experts from the National Museum to ensure historical accuracy. (Photographers note: This temple is an inspiration of the shape of Phra Thinang Wihan Somdej which was destroyed in Ayutthaya in 1767 and not an exact replica.)
Another from Open House London 2015.
Temple Church is among the oldest and most beautiful churches in London. It was built by the Knights Templar, an order of crusading monks founded in 1118 to protect pilgrims to the Holy Land.
The first location of our weekend and upon arriving we knew it was going to be busy. Temple Church can be visited outside of Open House so I was surprised to see such a large queue of people formed outside. In previous years it would have been void the gaggle of noisy American tourists and their disturbingly large suitcases (nothing against my US friends, just an observation of the day). :-)
London is a funny old place, there are many churches much like this which are completely tucked away. I worked just up the road for a number of years and never knew it was here.
Is it the weekend yet?
