At the temple Shibamata Taishakuten.
Shibamata Taishakuten was founded in 1629 - but the buildings in the area are generally from the early 20th century. The inner shrine of the Taishakudo (Taishaku temple hall) was finished in 1915, and the hall of worship 1929. The temple is centred around the worship of Taishakuten (sometimes called just Taishaku - written 帝釈天 or 帝釈 respectively), the Japanese name for Sakra devanam Indra (that is, the god Indra, known from Hinduism). Shibamata is the area in which the temple is located.
The temple (and its nearby ferry) is designated as one of the '100 Soundscapes of Japan' (日本の音風景100選) and the temple is also '100 Landscapes of Japan (Heisei era)' (平成百景). And it is the home of a series of quite spectacular wood carvings, depicting scenes from the Lotus Sutra.

The Chouwara Tannery is the largest and busiest of the four traditional tanneries still operating in the medina.
Sheep, goat, and cow skins are cured, stretched, scraped, and dyed in numerous honeycombed earthen pits .The skins are cured by a concoction that includes cow urine and pigeon guano and are then laid atop the rooftops to dry.
The final dying process involves the leather being mixed and soaked by hand in the vats before being trimmed for the medina's leatherworkers.
The vegetable dyes -- poppy (red), turmeric (yellow), mint (green), indigo (blue) -- have been replaced by chemicals that, along with the odd rinsing machine, are the only modern concessions to have infiltrated the process.
The Chouwara tanneries are best viewed in the morning, from the roof-terrace leatherware shops along Derb Chouwara, where a well-placed sprig of mint will help those who find the smell perhaps more confronting than the sight.
According to traditional sources of Saint Nino, who converted Georgia to Christianity, he stopped to pray on the highest hill Mtskheta and put the cross on him. In the 6th century, it was built in the place of two churches belonging to the monastery. The second - larger church was built between 586 - 605.
This church served as a model for the construction of other temples. The importance of the monastery grew with the passage of time and attracts many pilgrims. Also today, Great Church is used during major events. There are also fragments of the cross of St. Nino.
He is now included on the list of one hundred most endangered destruction of monuments of the world and UNESCO World Heritage List in 1994 as "Historical Monuments of Mtskheta".

Według tradycyjnych źródeł Święta Nino, która nawróciła Gruzję na chrześcijaństwo, zatrzymała się na modlitwę na najwyższym wzniesieniu Mcchety i postawiła na nim krzyż. W VI wieku wybudowano w tym miejscu dwa kościoły, wchodzące w skład monastyru. Drugi - większy kościół został wybudowany w latach 586 - 605.
Kościół ten służył jako wzór przy budowie innych świątyń. Znaczenie monastyru rosło wraz z upływem czasu i przyciąga wielu pielgrzymów. Także dzisiaj Wielki Kościół jest wykorzystywany podczas ważniejszych uroczystości. Zachowały się też fragmenty krzyża św. Nino.
Jest on obecnie wpisany na listę stu najbardziej zagrożonych zniszczeniem zabytków świata oraz listę UNESCO od 1994r.

"""This Santa is preforming his task by educating the young reindeer how they should run on gras, when there is not snow at all! It happens more and more these days, that they have to travel through areas under different weather conditions.
As you can see, they are good listeners and also eager to start their actually training on the gras. Santa's sleigh with the big bag is already on standby."""
These origami models are all designed by Jo Nakashima, except for the bag, which is a traditional origami Waterbomb. And he has made a video-tutorial for all the models:

DADDY: "Are you settling in well, Edgar and Benjamin?"
EDGAR: "Oh yes, Daddy!"
BENJAMIN: "Thank you Daddy!"
DADDY: "That's good, my darlings! I am pleased to hear that."
BENJAMIN: "It's especially lovely when we get to take tea together."
EDGAR: "And enjoy such delicious macarons!" *Licks lips with cute little pink bear tongue.*
BENJAMIN: "Grumbly tummy, Daddy! Grumbly tummy!" *Rubs tummy vigorously.*
EDGAR: "Grumbly tummy, Daddy! Grumbly tummy!" *Rubs tummy vigorously.*
DADDY: "Oh dear!"
The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" for the 17th of January is "plush toys", which is the perfect theme for me, as I have a lovely collection of soft plush bears who quite enjoy being in front of my camera and under my lens. Both made by Merrythought Bears in Ironbridge, Shropshire, Edgar and Benjamin are the two latest additions to my ever burgeoning bear family. I hope you like my choice of bears for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile.
This beautiful Willow Pattern nursery tea set was made in England by the Shell China Company in the 1920s. It features four cups and saucers as well as a tea pot, coffee pot, milk jug and sugar bowl. Each piece is gilt edged and decorated with the Willow Pattern in blue, just like the life-size equivalent. It has two sister sets: a 1920s Shell China Company nursery rhyme tea set that I was given as a gift some years ago by a close friend who knows I collect nursery ware and children’s tea sets and a faerie tale set from the 1930s Shell China Company faerie tale tea set that I have built up from various sellers over time.
Handmade at Merrythought in England from warm-gold tousled mohair plush, Edgar is a cheerful companion who has terracotta pure cotton velvet paws, and wears a delightful floral cotton bow tie. He is number 2 of a limited worldwide edition of 200.
Benjamin is made by Merrythought in England too. A friendly character, he has been handmade from soft, caramel-coloured mohair plush featuring a chocolate-coloured base that beautifully complements his pure wool felt paws. He wears a traditional, satin-lined waistcoat made from the finest British tweed and secured with brass studs. He is number 110 of a limited worldwide edition of 150.
