The meaning of the word megalithic

Have associated with special megalithic masonry and anthropomorphic stone sculptures on coming to America the outlying Islands, the emergence of Maori-Polynesian dogs, the spread in Polynesia 26-chromosomal cultural American cotton and sweet potato, bottle gourd and several other American elements in the Polynesian flora, including freshwater reeds of totora on Easter island and chili peppers, which met in Polynesia European seafarers.

Go to the courtyard and wait in the middle, between the fountains, wait and take your time, look around carefully – you will see that we were able to create two hundred years ago, but Peppelman wasn’t even the star of the first magnitude, nobody considered him a sort of German Bernini, is just a talented architect with good taste, his disciples and followers were not worse – Kneffel, say, or Schwartz, who completed the bell tower of the Hofkirche, – now, I say, look closely, damn you, and compare it with the current megalithic misery that gromozda all these trusty, crazy and speedy!

Dobele castle

Castle and forest

In 1729, the last inhabitants left the castle, and it has never lived. The surrounding people noticed it and began to slowly disassemble the walls and buildings, using stones for the construction of their homes and farm structures.

We decided to go to one of the most sacred and the most mysterious places of Latvia, on the way stopped in the town of Dobele is to inspect it and what is left of the ancient castle there. The route is a pleasant, interesting, exactly on the day. First on the itinerary was a castle.

About because the exact number impossible to establish, because a lot of built was completely destroyed, as a building material disappeared up to the last stone.

The space of the Gothic Cathedral

Romanesque cathedrals are majestic and simple. Their huge, strong and, maybe, even a little severe internal space set to a festive thought. The space of the Gothic Cathedral always amazed at the sophistication of some of the interior decoration. Streaming through the huge stained glass window light, if you can split it into hundreds and thousands of coloured lights, gives the whole space a colorful character, melodic world, quite unlike the harsh and everyday that is left outside of the temple.

Pillars of colored light, Lancet Windows completed, sprouted flowers and leaves, and spires of countless canopies over the statues, bunches of slender columns — everything as it strives to enthrall you up to the mysterious, the unknown boundary, beyond which there is eternal joyous bliss. The Gothic temple is colorful and ornate.

It creates a feeling of festive joy. This beautiful Reims Cathedral.

Art historians certainly would be called no less beautiful Gothic churches in France, England and Germany. But in France the new style was born. Continue reading
