The Sorinto and Sanbutsudo, Rinnoji Temple, Nikko

The Sorin tower of Rinnoji Temple in Nikko used to stand with the Sanbutsudo in Futarasan Shrine, but due to the order for separation of Buddhism and Shintoism, the Sorin tower was moved in 1875, and the Sanbutsudo in 1881, to Rinnoji Temple. The Sorin tower is a memorial tower built by order of Shogun Iemitsu where many scriptures were stored. The Sanbutsudo is seen in the back of the Sorin tower. The two lanterns in front of the Sorin tower were donated by the thread tally union (itowappu nakama).==Date:After 14th year of Meiji, Place:Nikko, Photo:Ogawa Kazumasa, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number9‐14‐0]

    The 33rd anniversary of the restoration of Estonia's independence

    20.08.2024. Tallinn. Restoration of Independence Day is marked on August 20 each year to celebrate the date in 1991 when Estonia regained the freedom it had lost to the Soviet Union more than five decades earlier. Thirty-three years ago, on August 20 1991, volunteers rushed to protect Tallinn's TV tower after Soviet forces were sent to the country to cripple the country's communication systems. Now a family day was held there. Photo Eero Vabamägi, Postimees
