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.

I say traditional because my camellia flowers are the only plant I have on my tiny patio that isn't a succulent. Several years ago many of us here in San Diego stopped trying to grow plants that thrive where there are seasons and switched to low maintenance plants that are native to the desert.

Chouwara Traditional Tannery by maios

291 12

Fez, Morocco

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The vegetable dyes -- poppy (red), turmeric (yellow), mint (green), indigo (blue) -- have been replaced by chemicals that, along with the odd rinsing machine, are the only modern concessions to have infiltrated the process.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.

Mtskheta - Church of Jvari, interior (UNESCO) by Zygmunt Borowski

78 7

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.
