It is famous for its exquisitely detailed yet monumentally scaled temple ruins of the Roman period, when Baalbek, known as Heliopolis was one of the largest sanctuaries in the Empire. It is Lebanon’s greatest Roman treasure, and it can be counted among the wonders of the ancient world. The largest and most noble Roman temples ever built, they are also among the best preserved. Towering high above the Beqaa plain, their monumental proportions proclaimed the power and wealth of Imperial Rome. The gods worshipped here, the Triad of Jupiter, Venus and Bacchus, were grafted onto the indigenous deities of Hadad, Atargatis and a young male god of fertility. Local influences are also seen in the planning and layout of the temples, which vary from the classic Roman design. </div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-76000018746224948912011-12-01T02:47:00.001-08:002011-12-01T02:47:16.534-08:00Petra (Jordan)<b><br />

It was completed in 691, making it the oldest existing Islamic building in the world. The site’s significance stems from the religious beliefs regarding the rock, known as the Foundation Stone in Judaism, at its heart. The Dome of the Rock is located at the visual center of a platform known as the Temple Mount, which Muslims refer to as the “Noble Sanctuary”. It was constructed over the site of the Second Jewish Temple which was destroyed during the Roman Siege of Jerusalem in 70 CE. In 637 CE, Jerusalem was conquered by the Rashidun Caliphate army during the Islamic invasion of the Byzantine Empire. </div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-64128601850842831752011-12-01T02:46:00.001-08:002011-12-01T02:46:17.033-08:00Wat Phra Kaew (Thailand)<b><br />

This word is often used to refer to the best-known one, the Moscow Kremlin, or metonymically to the government that is based there. Outside Russia, the name “Kremlin” is sometimes mistakenly thought of as being Saint Basil’s Cathedral because of its distinctive environment, although this is not a part of the Moscow Kremlin. The name Kremlin (or Kreml) has been allocated to various Soviet Navy vessels during construction. In each case, the name was changed prior to commissioning. Vessels which have briefly carried this name included Admiral Kuznetsov and Ulyanovsk.</div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-85253861563211029852011-12-01T02:45:00.001-08:002011-12-01T02:45:22.221-08:00Bagan (Myanmar)<b> </b><div style="text-align: justify;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444429691755897170" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEju2fdDhMVAsRWTeiT5YZTjd4wqVWnia4QC20JKuuYeqJkSn4cJiMSGVonzK697SNDdKf-EvCLD1C5D4PFknkgWV_f7uXQtPnsv0UJEFgnfM64Ln7BSKmYkRNXlegLCrWi0A-zDP-rHZug/s400/37.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 135px; width: 400px;" /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Bagan, formerly Pagan, is an ancient city in the Mandalay Division of Burma (Myanmar). Formally titled Arimaddanapura or Arimaddana (the City of the Enemy Crusher) and also known as Tambadipa (the Land of Copper) or Tassadessa (the Parched Land), it was the ancient capital of several ancient kingdoms in Burma. It is located in the dry central plains of the country, on the eastern bank of the Ayeyarwady River, 90 miles (145 km) southwest of Mandalay. Bagan was submitted to become a UNESCO heritage site but many speculate of politics as partly the reason for the exclusion. UNESCO does not designate Bagan as a World Heritage Site. The main reason given is that the military junta (SPDC) has haphazardly restored ancient stupas, temples and buildings, ignoring original architectural styles and using modern materials which bear little or no resemblance to the original designs. The junta has also established a golf course, a paved highway, and built a 200-foot (61-m) watchtower in the southeastern suburb of Minnanthu. </div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-73164440336617641032011-12-01T02:44:00.003-08:002011-12-01T02:44:48.350-08:00Borobudur (Indonesia)<b><br />

A main dome, located at the center of the top platform, is surrounded by 72 Buddha statues seated inside perforated stupa. The monument is both a shrine to the Lord Buddha and a place for Buddhist pilgrimage. The journey for pilgrims begins at the base of the monument and follows a path circumambulating the monument while ascending to the top through the three levels of Buddhist cosmology, namely Kāmadhātu (the world of desire), Rupadhatu (the world of forms) and Arupadhatu (the world of formlessness). During the journey the monument guides the pilgrims through a system of stairways and corridors with 1,460 narrative relief panels on the wall and the balustrades. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

The figures vary in height (183–195 cm - 6 ft–6 ft 5in), according to their role, the tallest being the generals. The figures include warriors, chariots, horses, officials, acrobats, strongmen, and musicians. Current estimates are that in the three pits containing the Terracotta Army there were over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses, the majority of which are still buried in the pits.

Its ruins are located in Al Khums, Libya, 130 km east of Tripoli, on the coast where the Wadi Lebda meets the sea. The site is one of the most spectacular and unspoiled Roman ruins in the Mediterranean. The city appears to have been founded by Phoenician colonists sometime around 1100 BC, although it did not achieve prominence until Carthage became a major power in the Mediterranean Sea in the 4th century BC. It nominally remained part of Carthage’s dominions until the end of the Third Punic War in 146 BC and then became part of the Roman Republic, although from about 200 BC onward, it was for all intents and purposes an independent city. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

The twice-per-year horse-race, Palio di Siena, is held around the edges of the piazza.</div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-84466018496008018332011-12-01T02:39:00.002-08:002011-12-01T02:39:58.897-08:00Pompeii (Italy)<b> </b><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444432578370173554" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAk5t-jpbu1v2C5ucWSzIV-MCKuQeS5nQZndZGoVCA6sTBQSJlZEYvRFXMl4gjD2sQvDKdSSxUx1C-P6AGQloGC1bCB5dpo31iGLvUfwPLB3VwiFZsonnszU0SNgQCtS2IWVa-Nd4v8fY/s400/14.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 135px; width: 400px;" /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">Pompeii is a ruined and partially buried Roman town-city near modern Naples in the Italian region of Campania, in the territory of the comune of Pompeii. Along with Herculaneum, its sister city, Pompeii was destroyed and completely buried during a long catastrophic eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius spanning two days in 79 AD. The volcano collapsed higher roof-lines and buried Pompeii under 20 meters of ash and pumice, and it was lost for nearly 1,700 years before its accidental rediscovery in 1748. Since then, its excavation has provided an extraordinarily detailed insight into the life of a city at the height of the Roman Empire. Today, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the most popular tourist attractions of Italy, with 2,571,725 visitors in 2007. </div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-16157005744874556192011-12-01T02:39:00.000-08:002011-12-01T02:39:08.167-08:00Grand Canal Of Venice (Italy)<b></b><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444432586451265890" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPlVga7R5y8KwcLmhfe8pK3678tJMfgULXoGgu69ZqRTAl6y0QmwY1N8W59Hp52jljhZz7psxf_oPBZ5AN92PNTfm2NqDsfHipSPPkag48ZcXf-0GIprdBQhH1-IWh2XE1VlPl1L7FXf8/s400/13.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 135px; width: 400px;" /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">The Grand Canal is a canal in Venice, Italy. It forms one of the major water-traffic corridors in the city. Public transport is provided by water buses and private water taxis, but many tourists visit it by gondola. At one end the canal leads into the lagoon near Santa Lucia railway station and the other end leads into Saint Mark Basin: in between it makes a large S-shape through the central districts (”sestieri”) of Venice. It is 3,800 m long, 30-90 m wide, with an average depth of five meters. The Grand Canal banks are lined with more than 170 buildings, most of which date to 13th/18th century and demonstrate the welfare and art created by the Republic of Venice. The noble venetian families faced huge expenses to show off their richness in suitable palazzos: this contest reveals the citizens’ pride and the deep bond with the lagoon. </div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-2110071868109165122011-12-01T02:36:00.003-08:002011-12-01T02:36:56.434-08:00Archaeological Site of Delphi (Greece)<b></b><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444432865488654690" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBx8BFgHENdOCWbX9HxQwJtlC6yhMtgPDk19PoGO2V9fdf8O-fJR-SCOYsxIZeQr90Oy4eLxbnLgrz63FHYrZnlpSXTew1odJWLVsgiUAzAcNvrY_QQ25vcaxkYaumS3-ey5A-1QiwOOQ/s400/10.jpg" style="height: 135px; width: 400px;" /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">Delphi is both an archaeological site and a modern town in Greece on the south-western spur of Mount Parnassus in the valley of Phocis. Delphi was the site of the Delphic oracle, the most important oracle in the classical Greek world, and a major site for the worship of the god Apollo after he slew the Python, a deity who lived there and protected the navel of the Earth. Python (derived from the verb pythein, “to rot”) is claimed by some to be the original name of the site in recognition of the Python that Apollo defeated (Miller, 95). The Homeric Hymn to Delphic Apollo recalled that the ancient name of this site had been Krisa. His sacred precinct in Delphi was a panhellenic sanctuary, where every four years, starting in 586 B.C. (Miller, 96) athletes from all over the Greek world competed in the Pythian Games, one of the four panhellenic (or stephanitic) games, precursors of the Modern Olympics. </div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-36308351079864318202011-12-01T02:36:00.001-08:002011-12-01T02:36:15.962-08:00Chartres Cathedral (France)<img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444432885345191874" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWAMIOGMTSUrfeWoW8UTxz6_zTzg72FdTj9I1jVygHbjY55InHTjeErsPDAXfn5pTfIW99osHepXJZH-z0R3wVv8YnqLIt81WWWm1LVDR4Xj84U1sTw7ge5e7cbi089rs9xNCY1jP6szE/s400/7.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 135px; width: 400px;" /><div style="text-align: justify;">The Cathedral of Our Lady of Chartres, a Latin Rite Catholic cathedral located in Chartres, about 80 kilometres (50 mi) southwest of Paris, is considered one of the finest examples in all France of the Gothic style of architecture. The current cathedral is one of at least four that have occupied the site. From a distance it seems to hover in mid-air above waving fields of wheat, and it is only when the visitor draws closer that the city comes into view, clustering around the hill on which the cathedral stands. Its two contrasting spires — one, a 105 metre (349 ft) plain pyramid dating from the 1140s, and the other a 113 metre (377 ft) tall early 16th century Flamboyant spire on top of an older tower — soar upwards over the pale green roof, while all around the outside are complex flying buttresses. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

The building, which was never completed, was constructed by King François I in part to be near to his mistress the Comtesse de Thoury, Claude Rohan, wife of Julien de Clermont, a member of a very important family of France, whose domaine, the château de Muides, was adjacent. Her arms figure in the carved decor of the chateau. Chambord is the largest castle in the Loire Valley, but was built to serve only as a hunting lodge for François I, who maintained his royal residences at Château de Blois and at Château d’Amboise. The original design of the Château de Chambord is attributed, though with several doubts, to Domenico da Cortona, whose wooden model for the design survived long enough to be drawn by André Félibien in the seventeenth century. </div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-71806646534898058912011-12-01T02:35:00.001-08:002011-12-01T02:35:10.350-08:00Palenque (Mexico)<b><br />

Apart from the pyramidal structures, Teotihuacan is also known for its large residential complexes, the Avenue of the Dead, and numerous colorful, well-preserved murals. At its zenith in the first half of the 1st millennium CE, Teotihuacan was the largest city in the pre-Columbian Americas. At this time it may have had more than 200,000 inhabitants, placing it among the largest cities of the world in this period. The civilization and cultural complex associated with the site is also referred to as Teotihuacan or Teotihuacano. </div>gambarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05811738907047816555noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455833868079520687.post-83256801002239657222011-12-01T02:34:00.000-08:002011-12-01T02:34:00.487-08:00Machu Picchu (Peru)<b><br />

It is situated on a mountain ridge above the vicalamba Valley in Peru, which is 80 kilometres (50 mi) northwest of Cuzco and through which the Urubamba River flows. Most archaeologists believe that Machu Picchu was built as an estate for the Inca emperor Pachacuti (1438–1472). Often referred to as “The Lost City of the Incas”, it is perhaps the most familiar icon of the Inca World. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
