The order controlled a number of castles along the border of the County of Tripoli, a state founded after the First Crusade. Krak des Chevaliers was amongst the most important and acted as a centre of administration as well as a military base. After a second phase of building was undertaken in the 13th century, Krak des Chevaliers became a concentric castle. This phase created the outer wall and gave the castle its current appearance. The first half of the century has been described as Krak des Chevaliers' "golden age". At its peak, Krak des Chevaliers housed a garrison of around 2,000. Such a large garrison allowed the Hospitallers to extract tribute from a wide area. From the 1250s the fortunes of the Knights Hospitaller took a turn for the worse and in 1271 Krak des Chevaliers was captured by the Mamluk Sultan Baibars after a siege lasting 36 days, and then purportedly only by way of a forged letter purportedly from the Hospitallers' Grand Master that caused the Knights to surrender. <b><span style="font-size: large;">29</span></b> more images after the break...</span></div> </div><a href="http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-castle-of-krak-des-chevaliers-in.html#more">Continue Reading.......</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?a=sd1usQjEJKs:mCBkgXjkDEw:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ritemail/~4/sd1usQjEJKs" height="1" width="1"/>2013-06-14T04:54:08.316-07:000http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-castle-of-krak-des-chevaliers-in.html20 Breathtaking Images of Deserts from Spacehttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ritemail/~3/ovQNZEZPNTM/20-breathtaking-images-of-deserts-from.htmlPlacesnoreply@blogger.com (Nirmal Mai)Fri, 14 Jun 2013 04:34:34 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849501205035774813.post-6772737681471463346<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <b>Sugar — Located in North Africa</b></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yyMYoh-OywA/Ubr7C13Vk_I/AAAAAAABKNg/CHtQorPXuQw/s1600/Desert_Ariel_Photography_001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Sugar — Located in North Africa." border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yyMYoh-OywA/Ubr7C13Vk_I/AAAAAAABKNg/CHtQorPXuQw/s1600/Desert_Ariel_Photography_001.jpg" title="Sugar — Located in North Africa."></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> 20 Breathtaking Images of Deserts from Space, <b><span style="font-size: large;">19</span></b> more after the break...</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> </div><a href="http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/06/20-breathtaking-images-of-deserts-from.html#more">Continue Reading.......</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?a=ovQNZEZPNTM:4cSjooyFrWY:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ritemail/~4/ovQNZEZPNTM" height="1" width="1"/>2013-06-14T04:34:34.775-07:000http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/06/20-breathtaking-images-of-deserts-from.htmlThe Wild Wadi Water Park — Dubaihttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ritemail/~3/Y_UCpNeU8QQ/the-wild-wadi-water-park-dubai.htmlPlacesnoreply@blogger.com (Nirmal Mai)Fri, 14 Jun 2013 04:11:54 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849501205035774813.post-2717085084769252159<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Kp2FZoESSLw/Ubr4qFivDeI/AAAAAAABKME/pD112_Zu-C8/s1600/Wild_Wadi_Water_Park_Dubai_015.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="The Wild Wadi Water Park is an outdoor water park in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Dangi lives with his nephews in a remote village of Nepal which is some 400 km away from the country's capital. He wishes to travel all parts of his country and the world.

Photographer Claudio Gazzaroli decided to change that, so he put on a diving suit, took his waterproof camera and dived onto the riverbed to take some truly mind-blowing photos.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The 30-km-long Verzasca mountain river originates at Pizzo Barone and flows into Lake Maggiore, in Italy. The river valley is located in the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland and is a popular tourist destination. People come from all around the globe to see the turquoise waters of Verzasca, do scuba-diving and admire its vibrant colored rocks. Most of them prefer to take photos of Verzasca from the mountains that surround it or from the many bridges built over it. But photographer Claudio Gazzaroli wanted to offer a different perspective on this unique wonder of nature. He dived town 50 feet to the bottom of Verzasca and managed to capture the almost unearthly clarity of its waters. ‘I wanted to show the beauty of this place in a new way,’ Gazzaroli said. Looking at his work, one wonders why wee need software like Photoshop when Mother Nature seems to do thing better herself. <span style="font-size: large;"><b>19</b></span> more images after the break...</div> <br> </div><a href="http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/06/crystal-clear-swiss-river-verzasca.html#more">Continue Reading.......</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?a=mC0CDiKPqEE:3ffP40XAU2g:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ritemail/~4/mC0CDiKPqEE" height="1" width="1"/>2013-06-01T05:45:45.725-07:000http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/06/crystal-clear-swiss-river-verzasca.htmlAcrobatic Performers Travel Within a Circular Mobile Homehttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ritemail/~3/EolQGET_xY0/acrobatic-performers-travel-within.htmlPeoplenoreply@blogger.com (Nirmal Mai)Sat, 01 Jun 2013 05:26:19 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849501205035774813.post-1410752099452368474<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"> The Wheel House is a live performance in which two acrobatic performers entertain audiences with the slow-paced rolling travel of their mobile home.

And yet, despite particularly harsh conditions, Yakutsk boasts a population of 270,000, or a quarter of the entire population of Siberia.

Located 1840 km away from Irkoustk and 5000 km away from Moscow, this city founded in 1632 by the Cossacks imposes upon its inhabitants an extreme way of life. And yet, despite particularly harsh conditions, Yakutsk boasts a population of 270,000, or a quarter of the entire population of Siberia. No other place on the planet experiences the temperature extreme found here: in winter, the temperatures regularly fall to minus 40° (the coldest temperature recorded was –64°C) and in summer often reaches temperatures above 30°C.

The contours call to mind the traditional cheese-cover farmhouses of Friesland; the construction evokes reminiscences of the building expertise that it still abundantly present in the old city; the wooden beams reflect the shipbuilding industry, with Sneek as the water recreation city par excellence in the North Netherlands. All these aspects led to the first uncovered wooden bridge in the heaviest load class. This bridge is not only a novelty for the Netherlands but also for countries such as Canada, Norway and Switzerland where the covered bridge is a well-known feature. The bridge consists of Accoya wood, an acetylated type of wood that has been produced in a factory in Arnhem for around one year now. The acetylation of wood is a process that makes wood almost imperishable. The design of the bridge is a fusion of infrastructure, construction, art and architecture. As a component of the renewed A7 motorway, the wooden bridge was envisaged at two positions. <b><span style="font-size: large;">13</span></b> more images after the break...</div> <div> </div></div><a href="http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/05/wood-bridge-in-netherland.html#more">Continue Reading.......</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?a=MBJsuiWCScw:eWsdi4U_3_U:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ritemail/~4/MBJsuiWCScw" height="1" width="1"/>2013-05-30T05:29:16.019-07:000http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/05/wood-bridge-in-netherland.html10 Most Unusual Parks in the Worldhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ritemail/~3/b5x2m_v3tJM/10-most-unusual-parks-in-world.htmlPlacesTop 10noreply@blogger.com (Nirmal Mai)Thu, 30 May 2013 04:50:21 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849501205035774813.post-9159899820603083303<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> Nature - The best artist, but sometimes it interferes with the idea man, and because such an alliance appear surprising places.

The statues appear to be centuries old, though they are not. There are sculptures of humans, gods, animals, and demons. There are numerous sculptures of Buddha, characters of Buddhist beliefs like Avalokitesvara, and characters of Hindu lore, including Shiva, Vishnu, and Arjuna. These sculptures were presumably cast by unskilled workers under the supervision of Luang Pu Bunleua Sulilat. One notable sculpture resembles a giant pumpkin. It has three stories representing three levels - Hell, Earth and Heaven. Visitors can enter through an opening which is a mouth of a 3-metre-tall demon head (9.8 ft) and climb staircases from hell to heaven. Each story contains sculptures depicting the level. At the top, there is a vantage point where the entire park is visible. Another sculpture, an enormous 120-metre-long (390 ft) reclining Buddha, is also a park attraction. <span style="font-size: xx-small;">Text — <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddha_Park" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Via</a></span>... <b><span style="font-size: large;">09</span></b> more after the break...</div> <br> </div><a href="http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/05/10-most-unusual-parks-in-world.html#more">Continue Reading.......</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?a=b5x2m_v3tJM:Aw8mKoaunvc:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ritemail/~4/b5x2m_v3tJM" height="1" width="1"/>2013-05-30T04:50:21.636-07:000http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/05/10-most-unusual-parks-in-world.htmlnonadult
