Picking someone as Britain’s worst ever ruler is certainly no easy task. How does one pit someone like the Saxon Ethelred the Unready with say the 20th Century’s Edward VIII?

How many school and college goers know about the little historical monuments tucked away in their neighbourhood? Or for that matter about the rich literary and theatre traditions of India?Blame this lack of knowledge on the "ill effects of globalisation", says the culture ministry which is planning to teach young students about Indian culture and heritage, be it monuments, art forms or literature.

Excellent! It’s good to know that people are doing research on Indian tradition and cultural.

Knowing the exact moment to witness a spectacular sunrise through the doorway of an ancient Hindu temple requires a detailed calculation. The most auspicious day is 3 April; the time, 0602.32 at sunrise, as the amber sun is perfectly aligned in the centre of the main doorway to a temple standing on a former volcanic mountain in northeast Thailand. Actually, the sun rays pass straight through 15  perfectly aligned doorways of Prasat Phanom Rung, a revered and ancient Hindu monastery, just four times a year -– two  sets of sunrises, in April and September, and two sets

All I knew about Romblon was that it was literally sitting on marble and that its cathedral is a National Cultural Treasure. But little did I know that the town's historical fabric was very much intact and if you compared the center of town to postcards from the prewar years, nothing much has changed. Walking around the streets of Romblon, Romblon was indeed a blast from the past! You could already see Fort San Andres as you enter Romblon Port.From the port, I walked towards the Romblon Shopping Center in from of Freedom Park where all the marble souvenir stores are clustered. There are a lot of really nice souvenirs but they should improve the ones with engravings which usually say "ROMBLON SOUVENIR."

At the top of the list is the iconic art deco Burrard Bridge, completed in 1932, which has earned a spot on the list for the past six years because the city is pushing to overhaul its look with outer bike lanes, known as outriggers.

Second on the list are about 40 to 60 of the city's historic public schools, which continue to be threatened with demolition as part of a seismic upgrading program. Downtown's Robson Square Complex, which is 30 years old and an internationally recognized architectural landmark, is third on the list because of the province's proposal to cover it over with wood laminate for use as a public meeting place.

With history and culture as old as civilization itself, China is as complex as the DNA code of each of the 1.3 billion (and counting) Chinese populating the earth. Hence, we will not attempt on a crash course of the Chinese menu, but we will have a taste of its popular and most sought-after offerings. Forbidden City Constructed during the Ming and Qing dynasty eras, native Chinese call it Gu Gong while the tourism board and guests alike now call it the Palace Museum. It holds the record for being the largest palace complex in the world, sprawling over 74 hectares of property located at the very heart of Beijing. A UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site since 1987, it served both as a residence and as a seat of power to a total of 24 emperors, fourteen from the Ming dynasty and ten from the Qi

For centuries, India has captured the imagination of the world with its charm and uniqueness. It is one of the oldest countries in the world boasting about the oldest civilization. And every aspect of this civilization, the music, dance, languages, religions, co-exists and blends in so beautifully that it could never be identified as a separate mien and collectively called as an ancient culture and heritage of India. With so many people following various religions and traditions, it was natural to have a culture that will surpass every other culture with leaps and bounds. As a spectator of Indian culture, one gets a peak into this magical world during the major festivals. Be it Diwali of Hindus, Eid of Muslims, or Christmas of Christians, all are celebrated with spectacular extravagance a
