Halicarnassus KingZeus is the supreme god of ancient Greece
mythology. The Statue of Zeus, sculpted by a great Greek artist in about 435 BC, was once located on the western coast of Greece. It was a seated figure of Zeus, holding his eagle-topped staff in his left
hand and the figure of
Nike (victory) in his
right hand. The Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal on the banks of the river Yamuna as a tomb for his wife. It was built in 22 years (1631 to 1653) by 20,000 workmen. The building is made of white marble . A beautiful garden surrounds the Taj Mahal. In front of the main entrance to the building there is Taj Mahal in the reflection from the water. King Nebuchadnezzar Ⅱ of Babylon(605-562 BC) built the Hanging Gardens to cheer up his wife who missed the flowers and trees of her homeland. The garden got its name because it was built entirely on the roof of the building ,which was surrounded by trees. This gave the impression that it was hanging in the sky. Potala Palace is located on “Red Hill” in Lhasa. It was originally built in the 640’s, during the reign of King Songtsan Gampo. The 13-story palace stands 117 meters high and covers an area of 130,000 square meters. It is divided into two sections, the Red Palace and the White Palace. It was used as the residence of the Dalai Lamas since the 7th century, as well as the religious and political centre of old Tibet.Discussion
