The Church on High (9 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       25 Feb 2011       8028

This tiny church is located in the former Soviet Republic of Georgia near the city of Chiatura. The church is sitting on pillar of rock that is on a jagged cliff that is 130 ft. in the air. To climb on the top you need to take an old rusty ladder. The cliff that the church is sitting on has been eroded by weather for nearly fourteen centuries.

Worlds Smallest Apartment (7 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       8 Oct 2010       10288

This very small apartment is located on Piazza di Sant’ Ignazio in Rome, an amazing square in the heart of the capital and is overlooked by a huge Renaissance Church. The beautiful view behind it is Palazzo Grazioli, which is a mansion that is rented by the Italian prime minister. The apartment is 55 sq. ft., costs $70,000, and has a single floor, single bath, single window apartment and a ladder that leads to a platform containing a single bed.

Even though this is Rome, it is still crazy to pay such money for 5 square meters.

The incident took place in Shreveport. A man was driving a car when, because of strong wind, a steeple of the church began to fall.
A multiton construction fell directly on the car. And although the victim had multiple fractures, his survival can’t be call other than a good luck.
Look at what it did to the vehicle and you will understand that he really is the lucky guy of the day.

A new home for a family (12 photos)

One couple bought a historic church in Kyloe, Northumberland.
They invested a lot of money to maintain its exterior and interior. The exterior remains almost intact. They made a restoration, rather than a renovation (which would be 3 times cheaper).
If it were not for them, who knows what would have happened to this church as it was in a poor condition. The couple however readapted the interior to give it a home atmosphere.
