Post Monuments from your city
Ha, I fought a battle from something like that once!
What's this ?
a horny gnome
Does not look even one bit similar to the above building.
Monument to the revolution
true, it looks like someone bricked up all the windows
I guess the structure was falling to bits and the municipality can barely afford to maintain it
What is it supposed to represent?
Anal sex
magok temple
When was this made?
Is Buddhism still relevant to the average Korean?
That red sunlight you get in India is so nice. One of the only hot places that gets nice sunsets
On the shore in my town. The inscription reads:
>In memory of those men, women, and children, who died of hunger and disease while fleeing the potato famine of Ireland, and lie buried on Hospital Island. Lovingly remembered by their descendants who persevered and helped build this great nation.
The first thing made was the 7th century (640 years), at that time It was much bigger than now
but during the Japanese invasion (1592-1597), the Japanese burned the temple with fire
so buildings were rebuilt in the 17th century (1651 years)
But Joseon dynasty repressed Buddhism, so it became smaller than before.
During the Joseon Dynasty, Buddhism received much repression
but there are still many temples left
At the centre of my town
>Here lie the Loyalists, 1783: Faithful alike to God and the King.
terribly cheap looking
It's a 235 year old cemetery, I'm not sure how expensive it's supposed to look.
not the grave markers, but the tacked on accoutrements someone felt the need to put there from your picture, that gate is like a school project tier
They're new, the brickwork may well have been done by local area students. It's a small cemetery in a small town in Canada's poorest province. Most people just remark on the history of it, I have never encountered a connoisseur of late 18th century cemetery gates and accoutrement.
seems a monument to vanity
Guess so. How about this "art" in the building on the island I posted.
pretty garish way to fill up that space
those are truly some magnificent ancient wonders to inherit
bibliotheca alexandrina
surprisingly modern a structure for what I expected
yeah it's a rebuild since the great alexandria library were burned either by muslims or christians back in the day
>barbarians
>excommunicated crusaders sent by venice
>muslims
Live 10 minutes away, never went there
One of the most beautiful libraries in the world.
