    Splash Down: Visitors Witness Large Chunk Falling From Glacier
    Splash down!

    These stunning images show a huge chunk of glacier falling into the ocean - right in front of an amazed tour group.

    British photographer Paul Goldstein captured the pictures on Weds (24 July) as he led a tour for Exodus Travels.

    Wimbledon-based Paul's series of pictures show the moment when the Monaco Glacier in Spitsbergen, Norway cracked - and one of the tour party thrusted their hand in the air in triumph at the exhilarating scene.

    But, despite the seemingly close call, the group were perfectly safe as their boats were half a kilometre from the action.

    Paul explains: "Despite looking extremely reckless and dangerous, these two Zodiacs were actually almost five hundred metres from the front of the Monaco Glacier safely beyond the recommended distance.

    "My inflatable rib was about a mile from the cobalt blue front of the huge glacier and the long lens foreshortens the distance. We have strict guidelines that we adhere to in terms of distance but to first hear the deep artillery crump then see the massive serac weighing thousands of tons crash down was hugely exhilarating. The 24 people in those two boats were buzzing for days.

    "Sadly this extraordinary spectacle and images masks the more sinister side of climate change as this particular glacier has retreated almost a mile in only nine years.

    "We saw many magnificent polar bears on sea ice during the expedition, but for those people facing off to the ice fall, this was their highlight. Those people who travel here on vast cruise ships that you cannot get off when you want will always miss out on these sort of life-changing experi...

    On December 2, 2021, Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province, the Zhongshan Scenic Area of ‚Ä‚ÄNanjing in the early winter season is full of forests, colorful and picturesque. From the air, the yellowed sycamore leaves on the cemetery road are like a string of Meiling Palace. "Golden Necklace" is so beautiful, ushering in the most beautiful viewing moment of the year.
    Viewed from the air through a drone, rows of platanus trees form a collar. The Meiling Palace in Xuanwu District of Nanjing is like a gem inlaid at the end of the necklace, quietly nestling at the foot of the Purple Mountain. There are folk rumors that the Meiling Palace was a "birthday gift" from Chiang Kai-shek to Soong Meiling. Netizens called this "the world's best necklace" as Jiang Gong's romantic confession to his beloved wife. It is understood that the trees forming the "necklace" on the cemetery road were not planted in the same period.
    According to records, the earliest construction budget of Meiling Palace was 260,000 silver dollars, but in the end it actually spent 320,000 silver dollars. The money was first advanced by the Army, Navy and Air Force Command, and later the Nanjing Municipal Finance Bureau also contributed part of the advance. The financial pit left by Meiling Palace for the two departments was finally filled by Chiang Kai-shek with the reimbursement of the total reserve fund of the state finance.

    Due to disrepair, Meiling Palace started repairs in December 2012 and was completed in September 2013. The rows of fatons are layered on top of each other, and the shape is like a necklace, which is very spectacular. Netizens called it "the most awesome necklace in the world." These necklace-shaped platanus trees were not planted at the same time. The Fatong that forms the "collar" on the cemetery avenue was planted during the construction of the Zhongshan Cemetery from 1925 to 1929, and the Fatong that formed a "pendant" ..

    REPORTAGE - Leben im Norden von Äthiopien
    (1/28/2017) Lalibela, Amhara region, Ethiopia. Ceremony of the coffee. One of Ethiopia's greatest pleasures is its cafe. The ceremony is a rite like tea in Japan. The ceremony is complicated and what I can tell you is that you start roasting coffee beans, then grind them in a wooden mortar and then put them in the hot water and the coffee is done. At the table you put the incense, sugar, cups and coffee and you can not even imagine how rich it is, nothing to do with what we drink in European coffee shops no matter how express.

In the Lalibela market you can get anything, animals, clothes, food, etc. In a separate place, an open-air market, chaotic, big and full of hustle and bustle, concentrates the activity of the people. Cattle, cloths, pans, ornaments, tailors, vegetables, fruits, plastic containers ... are mixed between the comings and goings of those who buy, chat or look. The city revolves largely around religious activity and lives also of outsiders attracted by it. (Photo by Sergi Reboredo) *** Please Use Credit from Credit Field *** *** Local Caption *** 19951077

In Lalibela there are eleven churches excavated in stone, at 2,700 m. Altitude and about 700 km. Of the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa. They have been dated between centuries XII - XIII and denominated like "the black Jerusalem". Its construction is attributed to King Lalibela (13th century) who was later canonized by the Ethiopian church and has been considered by Europeans as the famous Prester John.

It is unknown why they were excavated or built in the ground, construction that raised the difficulty of building and increased costs. Several theories are discussed, one of the most accepted is that they were raised during the rise of Christian pilgrimages, Jerusalem being the main axis or center of them, During the journey, the pilgrim faced various dangers and the churches were exposed to vandalism and looting, perhaps this was why King Lalibela decided to bury the churches, protecting them from possible looting.

At 2,400 meters above sea level, on the Ethiopian plateau, to the north of Addis Ababa, is this small monastic town (the second city of Ethiopia considered Santa), known in antiquity as Roha, and changed its name after being conquered in the Century XIII by the monarch Gebra Maskal Lalibela, who "baptized" it like Lalibela.

King Lalibela's nephew, Na'akueto La'ab (also writes Nakuto Lab) reigned in Ethiopia at the beginning of the XIIIe century and was one of the last rulers of the Zagoué dynasty. Legend has it that he prayed lengthened on swords. Like King Lalibela, he built a troglodyte church, the church of Nakuto Lab, located 4 km from the town of Lalibela in a spectacular site, nestled on a cliff.

    REPORTAGE - Leben im Norden von Äthiopien
    (1/28/2017) Nakuto lab rock church, Amhara region, Lalibela, Ethiopia. A girl sells handicrafts at the entrance of the monastery of Nakuto Lab. In Lalibela, visit the second group and also a small church dug in the mountain, the monastery Nakuto Lab, which is about 6 km from the village and which I believe is the most Beautiful and peaceful in which I have been. If you have money please go; The guides charge about 40 dollars to take them by car and the entrance to the church is 100 birr.
