Shwe Nan Daw Kyaung (Golden Place) Monastery, Mandalay, Myanmar This monastery was originally part of the Amarapura palace complex and was moved to Mandalay to become the apartment of King Mindon. When King Mindon died in 1878, his son, King Thibaw, had it dismantled and using mainly these materials, he built the present monastery. Upon its completion on 18 November 1883, he dedicated it to the Buddhist order. The whole building was once heavily gilt and adorned with glass mosaics and exquisite wood carvings. The building has since deteriorated greatly, but the teak wood carvings such as those depicted here (and which adorn the building exterior) remain. 8E1609.6551 Nikon D800E | Nikkor 70-200 f/2.8 VRII @ 200mm f/11 1/60s ISO150 | ...

The medieval, byzantine "castletown" of Mystras, close to Sparta (or "Sparti") town, Lakonia, Peloponnese, Greece. Here you can see the church of the abandoned Perivleptos monastery. In its interior you can see some impressive frescoes. In 1261, the Latins ceded Mystras and other forts in the southeastern Peloponnese as ransom for Villehardouin, who had been captured in Pelagonia, and Michael VIII Palaeologus made the city the seat of the new Despotate of the Morea. It remained the capital of the despotate, ruled by relatives of the Byzantine emperor, although the Venetians still controlled the coast and the islands. Mystras and the rest of Morea became relatively prosperous after 1261, compared to the rest of the empire. Under the despo...

Beautiful Abbey Senanque in the early morning sun. The Abbey is located just outside of Gordes in Provence, France. The Abbey was founded in 1148 under the patronage of Alfant, bishop of Cavaillon, and Ramon Berenguer II, Count of Barcelona, Count of Provence, by Cistercian monks who came from Mazan Abbey in the Ardèche. Temporary huts housed the first community of impoverished monks. By 1152 the community already had so many members that Sénanque was able to found Chambons Abbey, in the diocese of Viviers. A refectory was added in the 17th century, when some minimal rebuilding of existing walls was undertaken, but the abbey is a remarkably untouched survival, of rare beauty and severity.
