Sacred Places: Sites Of Spirituality & Faith

Product Description

Sacred Places is a stunning photographic journey to places considered sacred to people of ancient civilizations & increasingly to modern-day men & women. The sites included are associated with great religious or mythological events; they are hallowed burial grounds, manmade edifices & nature's rivers, mountains, & caves imbued with spiritual meaning. Interfaith in scope, the book relates the influences that make each historically & culturally significant & explores how a combination of natural landscape & man-built edifices & artistic endeavours converge to make the sacred manifest. Featuring hundreds of beautiful photographs, this is an uplifting & magnificent blend of religion, culture, history, & travel that is at once informative, inspirational, & spiritual.
