🔴The Great lower temple in Niha🔴 ⚫Located in Niha a village in the Bekaa Valley , Lebenon. ⚫Niha is famous for its Roman archeological ruins, and in particular the two lower Roman temples that date back to the 1st century AD. ⚫The inside of the Great Temple consists of two parts: the cella, where the people used to gather, and the elevated adytum, which was accessed by a stairway. ⚫The adytum used to hold the statue of the god or goddess. ⚫Under the elevated adytum is a crypt, which held the items used during the ceremonies and rituals of the temple. ⚫The doorway leading to the crypt is decorated with a carved relief representing a priest pouring holy water over an altar , to the left a relief represents a winged boy riding over a sheep or a bull. 🧜‍♀️The temple was dedicated to the mermaid goddess Atargatis and her consort, the god Hadaranes. ⚡Hadaranes is the god of thunder, lightning and rain, Atargatis is the goddess of fertility. ⚫The temple was still in use when it was destroyed by an earthquake. ⚫The remains are visible of two Roman temples, but only one of which has been restored. 👀Check out my Stories 👀 . . .

The Pantheon,...of all Roman treasures this is my favorite. Can keep on coming back here and every time it feels magical like the first time. When you come in, every one looks up at the gorgeous cupola (biggest concrete dome in the world) but also have a look at the marvelous Artwork in the side chapels!

I always have been fascinated by garden follies, these often delightfully frivolous, romantic, small buildings which were primarily constructed for decoration and pleasure rather than function. They were very popular in the 18th century English and French landscape gardens and often resembled Roman temples, Chinese pagodas, Indian pavilions. This somewhat run down beauty which I photographed during one of my first trips to England, I don’t even remember where it was exactly, is such a wonderful example for these types of garden buildings. Do you also have a thing for garden follies? #folly #follies #gardenfolly #gardenfollies #england #18thcentury #delightfull #frivolous #pleasure #decoration #gardenornament #romantic #beautiful #romantemple #organicgardendreams (at England) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bmvon0JFh9w/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=124flowt5hk4h

Unfortunately, there are no traces of the temple left, not even the foundation.
