Marshall Travel Atlas of Sacred Places: Meeting Points of Heaven and Earth

by JamesHarpur (Author)

Synopsis

This is a travel guide to over 30 sites around the globe, from Mexico to China, Norway to India, taking in the hallowed halls of temples and shrines, mystical mountains and places of pilgrimage. Essays describe the sites and explain the spiritual significance of each, as well as its connections with religious leaders and holy figures. Colour photographs and paintings capture the detail of cathedrals, mosques, ancient shrines and their often idyllic surroundings. Location maps place each site in context, and special feature maps reflect the broader historical picture. A practical gazetteer helps pilgrims and visitors find their way, and offers suggestions on what to see when they arrive.
