It is a "potent religio-political symbol and the palladium of Thai society". It is located in the historic centre of Bangkok (district Phra Nakhon), within the precincts of the Grand Palace. </div><br />
<br />
The main building is the central ubosoth, which houses the statue of Emerald Buddha. The legendary history of this Buddha image is traced to India, five centuries after the Lord Buddha attained Nirvana, till it was finally enshrined in Bangkok at the Wat Phra Kaew temple in 1782 during Rama I's reign (1782–1809). This marked the beginning and raise of the Chakri Dynasty of the present Kingdom of Thailand (the present head of the dynasty is King Rama IX. The Emerald Buddha, a dark green statue, is in a standing form, about 66 centimetres (26 in) tall, carved from a single jade stone (Emerald in Thai means deep green colour and not the specific stone). It is carved in the meditating posture in the style of the Lanna school of the northern Thailand. Except for the Thai King, no other person is allowed to touch the statue. The King changes the cloak around the statue three times a year, corresponding to the summer, winter, and rainy seasons, an important ritual performed to usher good fortune to the country during each season.<br />
<br />
While legend traces this statue to India, its rich historical records dates its finding in Cambodia in the 15th century, moved to Laos in the 16th century and then to Vientiane where it remained for 215 years, and finally to Thailand in the 18th century. Considering the long history and Nagasena's (a Brahmin who became a Buddhist sage and lived about 150 BC) prophesy that the Emerald Buddha would bring "prosperity and pre-eminence to each country in which it resides", the Emerald Buddha deified in the Wat Phra Kaew is deeply revered and venerated in Thailand as the protector of the country.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164373962908879883.post-77370486845020156712010-11-24T17:18:00.000+03:002010-11-24T17:18:28.503+03:00Postcard from Valetta, Malta<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HkV3MD97ehw/TO0ehaGjnBI/AAAAAAAABF4/VNJkS6WccSo/s1600/Malta.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="288" ox="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HkV3MD97ehw/TO0ehaGjnBI/AAAAAAAABF4/VNJkS6WccSo/s400/Malta.png" width="400" /></a></div>The card shows cruise ships in Grand Harbour with Valetta, Manoel Island and Sliema in the background.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164373962908879883.post-9443639858615159032010-11-14T14:11:00.000+03:002010-11-14T14:11:01.384+03:00MS Qatar 2010 - Arab Culture<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HkV3MD97ehw/TN_DpELQqHI/AAAAAAAABF0/ZkwX7CZQDuc/s1600/5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="317" px="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HkV3MD97ehw/TN_DpELQqHI/AAAAAAAABF0/ZkwX7CZQDuc/s400/5.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164373962908879883.post-50682640049803374242010-07-14T15:56:00.000+03:002010-07-14T15:56:40.143+03:002009 Qatar Birds stampsFinally! i have completed this set.<br />

The exposition was placed in a meander of the river Ebro. It was coordinated by the Bureau of International Expositions, the organization responsible for sanctioning World's Fairs.</div><br />
<br />
Zaragoza, host city for the International Exposition, is the administrative and financial capital of the autonomous community of Aragon and Spain's fifth most populous city. Zaragoza was elected the host city of Expo 2008 on December 16, 2004 by the BIE, beating Thessaloniki (Greece) and Trieste (Italy).<br />
<br />
The exhibition’s most emblematic buildings were the Water Tower, a 80-metre-high transparent building designed by Enrique de Teresa to evoke a drop of water, Zaha Hadid's Bridge Pavilion, and the river aquarium. The exposition site also hosted several events, including a daily parade by Cirque du Soleil called The Awakening of the Serpent.<br />
<br />
Aside from the countries, non-government organizations and private companies took part in Expo 2008, always with the idea of water and sustainable development. Prior to the event, the Expo 2008 host committee estimated that the expo event could generate 135 million euros in receipts for admission to the exhibition centre.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164373962908879883.post-81191772663779774772010-07-07T11:58:00.000+03:002010-07-07T11:58:31.050+03:002008 Cyprus Through the Ages Stamp set<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HkV3MD97ehw/TDRBcyowb-I/AAAAAAAABE8/zbiuEamUGK4/s1600/1+004.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="227" rw="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HkV3MD97ehw/TDRBcyowb-I/AAAAAAAABE8/zbiuEamUGK4/s400/1+004.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164373962908879883.post-24636159734823881862010-07-07T11:56:00.000+03:002010-07-07T11:56:41.592+03:00Postcard for Nova Scotia, CanadaNova Scotia is a Canadian province located on Canada's southeastern coast.
