The village where faith is more powerful than anything else<br />
<br />
 Twenty-seven chapels and three luminous crosses watch over the Rhodope village of Momchilovtsi. It is one of the very few villages in the Rhodope mountain populated with Chritians only. There are chapels built on every hill round the place and it is believed that the Saints, whom the chapels were named after, protect them from troubles and disasters. These chapels were built with the help of the volunteers and the charity from the local people. The first one was built in 1989 and it was named '' St. Mina'' . Some new chapels were built up after that and soon this became a tradition for the local villagers. Momchilovtsi is famous for its hill Ayazmo. A lot of miracles have happened in this place over the years. They were all due to the effect of the blessed spring water running in the chapel Ayazmo. A dumb child got to speak after its visit to the Ayazmo hill, people with skin and eye problems have been cured as well. The local people are very proud of the healing property of the village stream on February 17, 2016  ©Exclusivepix Media

 Dhee Ayn village is a 400-year-old stone settlement built on top of a hill in the Al-Bahah region and abandoned about 30 years ago. The village houses themselves are not made of marble but stone. However, the village is known as the “Marble Village” for the rocky outcrop it is built upon.

Taming of The Beasts<br />
<br />
On the first weekend of July, hundreds of wild horses are rounded up during the 'Rapa Das Bestas' (taming of the beasts) in different villages in the Spanish northwestern region of Galicia. The more than 400-year-old festival lasts four-days, during which the horses are wrestled to the ground by hand to have their manes and tails sheared. The festival sees horses herded down from the mountains by Aloitadores, or fighters, who work in teams of three to overpower them. Thousands of visitors descended on the small village to watch the fighters man-handle the wild animals into submission. The horses used in the festival live in a semi-feral state in the nearby mountains. Wrestling the animals, which can weigh several hundred kilograms, is seen as a test of strength and will<br />

A bird's eye view of Rijal Almaa, in the Asir region. Around 30 years ago, this village was abandoned by the locals in favor of modern houses with electricity and running water. But in a bid to save the ancient buildings, the village has now been turned into a wonderful giant museum. The architecture of the buildings is unique, with stone slabs that were sourced locally. This place will become a major tourist attraction with many hotels opening around it.

<br />
Phnom Penh's historic White Building is crumbing, dilapidated, rundown and facing demolition. Behind the peeling façade of the notorious public building, together with the prostitutes and drug addicts, there is a bustling community of 2,500 Cambodians. Known among locals as the Bodeng – it has a reputation for being a slum and a haven for drug addicts. Peek inside the doors and meet the residents, though, and a whole new picture emerges of a close-knit community of mostly artists and performers. Under King Sihanouk's vision and leadership, Phnom Penh underwent a tremendous transformation during late 1950s and 60s, with an abundance of newly built public infrastructure, and monuments. Among the response was the White Building project, which lay on reclaimed land along the Bassac River. Designed by Cambodian architect Lu Ban Hap and Russian architect Vladimir Bodiansky in 1963, the White Building comprised of 468 apartments, and was the first attempt to offer modern urban lifestyle to lower income Cambodians. The White Building has survived a civil war, a foreign occupation, and the merciless drive of redevelopment in modern Phnom Penh. Its prime location in the rapidly developing city means many residents now fear for its future.<br />

Traditional stone watchtowers standing tall in Addayer village, Jizan province. The terraced land around the buildings allows locals to grow coffee in this remote mountainous area.

Many people assume that the Saudi Kingdom abounds with luxury buildings and signs of wealth, but outside of the main cities, the country remains very rural. This old village with mud houses is located in the Asir province. These houses are called midmakh and they may have up to seven floors. The huge walls are the best way to keep temperatures cool during the summer. There are rooftop terraces that allow people to enjoy fresher air.

 Black stone and mud houses built with slates in the village of Sarat Abidah. While many assume that Saudi Arabia is just a desert, the area is sometimes hit by heavy rain. The angled slates on these buildings help prevent water from getting inside and damaging the walls. The white metallic roofs indicate those houses that have been renovated and are lived in.

Vew of an old village with traditional mud houses and gardens on the outskirts of the southern city of Dhahran Al Janub. The architecture bears a similarity to the famous Yemeni city of Shibam, which is called the Manhattan of the Desert. Yemen is only 10 kilometers away. Dhahran Al Janub is not located in the desert but it also deserves such a nickname. The gardens remain well-kept and were used to offer a means of escape in case of tribal raids and defeat.

 This village is located in the Asir province and features houses made of a unique mix of red mud and stone. Although the properties are now crumbling, there are still colorful drawings decorating the interior walls. The ground floor of these houses was intended for livestock. The first floor was for human accommodation and included small windows to keep out the heat as well as intruders. As you go up the building, the windows become larger to let more light in as well as cooler air.

 A view of traditional stone houses in the village of Al Olayan. This area is located high up in the mountains and fog is common here. People from the lowlands (Riyadh for instance) enjoy coming here for the rain and the fog during the holidays as the heat becomes suffocating in the cities, with temperatures above 40 degrees and of course, not one drop of rain.

An ancient village with traditional mud houses near the southwestern city of Najran. An increasing number of these mud houses have been abandoned in favor of modern ones, but Saudi families like keeping them for weekend getaways or social events such as weddings or Ramadan gatherings. This frequent use means that these 200-year- old houses remain well-maintained. Many Saudis also like building a modern house close to their old family one.

500 years ago, the Kuna people lived on the border between Panama and Colombia. In the early 18th century, when the Spanish conquistadors expanded the presence in the area, the Kuna began to emigrate to the San Blas islands where no foreigners were permitted until the late 1940s. Some say Christopher Columbus discovered this land, but the Kuna retort that they have occupied it for centuries. Of the 365 islands, approximately 40 are inhabited and overcrowded!<br />
Either a boat or plane is needed to reach the San Blas islands where the 50,000 Kuna live. They have gained a certain level of autonomy and in the process, have successfully maintained their traditions and customs. <br />
If arriving by boat, it feels like you are approaching paradise itself. Small plots of land emerge from the sea. These tiny islands are covered by palm trees, which provide little shade to the Kuna’s thatch huts. Fishermen slowly drift across the water in their pirogues. Once on the islands, the Kuna women are the first to greet you. They are characteristically short and all wear a traditional, recognizable attire featuring a red shawl, a skirt, beaded bracelets and necklaces, a gold nose ring, and at least one Mola design on the fabric. Mola art was once painted on the body but was relegated to clothing under the influence of the missionaries. Earliest accounts of Mola fashion date back to 1514!<br />
Using the technique of reverse application, artists create images depicting natural scenes including landscapes and wildlife, as well as more abstract geometrical patterns. Since some on these islands have TV, animals like elephants are also represented, even though they are not indigenous to the area.
