LEADIN
The traditional Dresden Striezelmarkt goes back more than five centuries and is the oldest German Christmas market.
Today old crafts are still celebrated and draw thousands of Christmas shoppers and tourists.
STORYLINE
The Striezelmarkt dates back to a royal decree in 1434.
Towards the end of the Middle Ages, the so-called Striezel cake lent its name to the whole market, and lives on today in the form of genuine Dresden Christstollen.
The market stalls also offer also products of Saxon crafts and folk art .
Local Historian, Heidemarie Wozel, says many of the market wares are linked to the crafts from the villages of the Erzgebirge mountains.
And she says they are a way of upholding traditional Christmas customs.
Among the items for sale are Indigo-printed textiles and pottery from Lusatia, plus wickerwork and Plauen lace.
Similarly sought-after are the paper Advent stars from Herrnhut in Lusatia (prices range from 12 Euros to 49 Euros/$15 USD - $63 USD ) . These decorate countless homes, churches and streets during the Christmas period, providing cosy illumination and symbolising the Star of Bethlehem.
Blown-glass tree decorations from the Thuringian glass-blower town of Lauscha and a multitude of Saxon culinary specialities round off the offerings.

Dresden Stollen: A German Specialty | Video of the day
Stollen originated in the eastern German city of Dresden and was first written up about 500 years ago. It's a baked loaf full of dried fruit, nuts and spices. Our roving reporter Mathias Stamm traveled to the Dresden Backhaus to get a lesson in how to make it.
Supermarket of the Dead
Supermarket of the Dead. Brandopfer in China und der Kult des globalisierten Konsums. Proposition III.
Eine Ausstellung von Wolfgang Scheppe mit den Staatlichen Kunstsammlungen Dresden
14. März - 10. Mai 2015, Residenzschloss Dresden
Eine der ältesten Formen chinesischen Volksglaubens erweist sich als lebendiger Brauch, der überall in der Kultur Chinas praktiziert wird: Brandopfer papierener Nachbildungen von Geld und Gütern, die mit dem Verbrennen Ahnen, Göttern und Geistern übergeben werden, um sie günstig zu stimmen oder ihre Nöte zu lindern. Diese Papiermodelle haben sich jüngst von der Nachahmung traditioneller Erzeugnisse zu Abbildungen des westlichen Warenhauses gewandelt, denn man will den Angehörigen in der Nachwelt eben jene Güter zukommen lassen, die man selbst begehrt. So entstand eine Gegenwelt aus Papier, in der heute fast alle globalisierten Fetische des Markenkonsums dem Feuer übergeben werden, um sie den Vorfahren zu widmen.
Supermarket of the Dead. Fire offerings in China and the Cult of Globalised Consumption. Proposition III.
An exhibition by Wolfgang Scheppe with the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden
Dresden Royal Palace, March 14 to May 10, 2015
One of the most ancient forms of Chinese spirituality proves to be a living tradition, still widely practised everywhere in Chinese culture. Paper replicas of money and goods are ritually burned as offerings to win the favour of ancestors, gods and spirits. These paper models have recently undergone a kind of transformation, in which imi-tations of traditional objects have been superseded by replicas of consumer goods found in western shopping habits. An alter-native world made of paper, encompassing all today’s globalised brand consumption fetishes, Gucci bags, Prada shoes, mobile phones, Apple computers and even Heineken beer cans and life-size cars, is committed to the flames as a tribute to the ancestors.

Germany has a rich and diverse architectural history, the traditions of the Carolingian Renaissance to the contemporary architecture rich. The article gives an overview of the history and current state of architecture in Germany, moored to structures that shape the image of the country and of outstanding builders, architects and engineers who worked in Germany or act.
The German architecture is characterized by a large measure of regional diversity, due to centuries of fragmentation of the German territory into principalities, kingdoms, etc. This created a very heterogeneous picture, partly there are architectural differences from town to town, from village to village. This gives the present-day Germany, a particularly rich historical architectural heritage. Not to be overlooked in many German cities, however, the consequences of the destruction in the Second World War ; especially in urban centers, the historic buildings are usually only - reconstructed - Islands in the architecture of the reconstruction.
Germany's architecture is naturally also closely intertwined with that of its neighboring countries and other European countries. architectural styles make almost never stop at national borders, so that one architectural history of a German architecture can not speak. Architecture is always a cross-border medium that connects a culture and at the same time symbolizes. So it was with the through Central Europe wandering masons' guilds in the Middle Ages, in the Baroque -Baukunst about the Würzburg Residence and it is to a greater extent in our highly networked world today where architects, especially the star architects of our time, international operate and thus global shape style developments basically globally.
Since the German architect saw neither Italy nor the buildings of the ancient device in the 16th century Italian Renaissance architecture in the hands of German architect initially a pure misunderstanding. The baroque architecture of domination of the German royal and princely houses was based, as well as the court ceremonial, always on the model France, especially at the court of Louis XIV in Versailles. Thus arose the Zwinger Palace in Dresden, Matthew Daniel Pöppelmann built from 1709 to 1728, initially to hold court festivities, as they were common at the court of the Sun King. The architecture of absolutism put always the ruler at the center, so increased, for example, the spatial composition the powerful position of each ruler -. on the wall and ceiling paintings and sculptures - in the form of magnificent staircases that lead to the person of the ruler the sculpted walls praise her motifs usually the princely or royal builders.
The classicism came on in the second half of the 18th century in Germany. This was based, as the name implies, the classical architecture of antiquity. The classicism as a countermovement to Baroque to understand and also sets itself apart ideologically from an architectural style of absolutism from. This was true not only for the architecture, but also for the landscape architecture.
The history of architecture is a subdivision of the History of Art commissioned the study of the historical evolution of architecture, principles, ideas and achievements. This discipline, as well as any other form of knowledge historical, is subject to the limitations and strengths of history as a science : there are various perspectives in relation to its study, most of which are Western.
The city of Nuremberg was a territory of the Holy Roman Empire, whose independence had taken place in several stages of development during the 13th to 15th centuries (obtaining the realm of freedom in 1219 awarded the high court 1320 acquisition of Nuremberg Burggrafenburg 1427) and to 1806 existed.
Around the year 1105, the originating in a Lower Austrian gender were counts of Raab invested with the Nuremberg castle and used as a viscount. In the following years this provided the basis for an extensive imperial territory, which developed around the Nuremberg Castle and later as a castle county called Nuremberg. For the development of later imperial city of Nuremberg Castle County therefore played an important role because it is in the following centuries this or any successor territories.
In 1200 Nuremberg became a town and should be in the following years mainly due to the favorable location on north-south and east-west running trade routes, including the Golden Road develop into an important trading site.

Germany's Romantic Rhine and Rothenburg
© 2002 Rick Steves' Europe | Cruising the Rhine River, we dodge riverboat traffic and the legendary Lorelei. After climbing castles and descending into dungeons, we relax with Rhine wine. We tour Burg Eltz — a lived-in castle where the noble lady still puts out fresh flowers. Then we enter the walled town of Rothenburg for Germany's best wood carving, a vivid dose of medieval punishment, and a tour with the night watchman of the town's lamp-lit ramparts.

Documentary Bridging Generations Meeting Dresden 2016
Bridging Generations is an-eighteen-month project (October 2014 – March 2016) within the framework of the Europe for Citizens Programme, under Strand 1: European Remembrance. The project seeks to raise awareness of remembrance, common history and values. It also seeks to promote European citizenship by bridging the gap between generations and involving them in an intergenerational and intercultural dialogue.
The main focus is on the memories of senior citizens from Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy and Poland who lived during and after WWII. Their stories will be collected in order to appreciate the role of collective memories in achieving mutual understanding and cultural diversity. Using the method of biographical narrative, the impact of WWII on shaping national identities in Europe and the commemoration of the victims of war will be examined and discussed.
European citizens can not forget their histories and cultural traditions and as a result, they can not escape from them. Through Bridging Generations project, European citizens are asked to share their stories with the younger generations so that they can learn about the aftermath of war and specifically of WWII through personal experiences and collective memories.
Collective memory includes critical aspects of political culture, community traditions, and social identity. It informs our understanding of past events and present relationships, as well as it contributes to our expectations about the future and this is what Bridging Generations aspires to do; build a better future for Europe.
By recording and sharing life experiences of senior citizens, a common platform is created which connects the stories of senior citizens from different countries. In this way their messages and experiences are passed on to younger generations who are further removed from the trauma of the war. Young people therefore become aware of the impacts of the totalitarian regimes and of wars. As Maurice Halbwachs, a French sociologist and philosopher said, “Memories are passed through society via verbal exchange, and if the way of recollecting the past is through silence, then this is also transmitted, and becomes a mode of remembrance in itself”.
The project involves European citizens from 3 different age groups – young people up to 30 years old (students and professionals) – adults between 30 and 65 years old (film makers, sociologists, project manager, culture managers, historians, artists, art educators, policy makers, researchers, professors) – senior citizens (65+) from Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy and Poland.
The project includes 5 meetings: the first meeting took place in November 2014. Representatives of the partner organizations gathered to plan their cooperation within and their contributions to the “Bridging Generations” project. The second meeting was held from 11 to 15 February 2015, on the anniversary of the 1945 Dresden’s bombing and the celebration of 70 years of peace since the end of WWII. From 26 - 29 May 2015, the third international meeting took place in Wroclaw and Olesnica, Poland (video). From 28 to 31 October 2015, the fourth international meeting is going to be held in Thessaloniki, Greece.
The main activities of the project will be workshops on biographical narrative, interviews and visits to places of remembrance, including monuments commemorating victims and historical museums. Commemoration events, art exhibitions, performances and discussions on Europe's future and sustainability will be presented during the study-visit in Thessaloniki.
The experiences and knowledge gained through the project will be presented in the final event of the project in the form of a conference which will include cultural events such as an intergenerational performance, an art exhibition and a concert from the 13th to the 15th of February 2016 in Dresden, Germany.

Bali Paradise (Indonesia) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Bali Paradise in Indonesia.
Bali is part of the largest island kingdom in the world, the State of Indonesia. Denpasar has been the capital of Bali since 1946 and was once the seat of the homonymous principality of Badung. The small village situated around the Pemecutan Raja Palace, soon developed into a bustling city. The city’s oldest Hindu temple dates from the fourteenth century and was established by the envoy of the Majapahit Empire. At the entrance to the Monkey Forest near the town of Ubud, the famous saint monkeys welcome those who come here. The cheeky little macaques are thought to be descendants of mythical monkey king, Hanoman. Gamelan music and Legong dance are part of Bali’s culture. The movement of the body, and especially the position of the head, the play of the eyes and various facial expressions, each form the traditional elements of the dance. A journey to the centre of the island, from Sebali to Keliki, is a great experience and one not to be missed. Uphill through small villages and lush greenery, past banana trees and paddy fields, typical Balinese country life. On the main island, in Kuta, are wonderfully spacious, white sandy beaches and the warm Indian Ocean, often with waves several metres high. Here, relaxation is the order of the day and the waves attract surfers from all over the world. Bali is truly the Island of the Gods, with fantastic scenery, fascinating culture and exclusive hotels.

German Christmas Market
German Christmas Market
A Christmas market, also known as Christkindlmarkt (literally: Christ Child Market, but the term Christkind usually refers to an angel-like spirit of Christmas rather than literally the Christ Child), Christkindlesmarkt, Christkindlmarket, Christkindlimarkt, and Weihnachtsmarkt, is a street market associated with the celebration of Christmas during the four weeks of Advent. These markets originated in Germany, but are now held in many other countries.
The history of Christmas markets goes back to the Late Middle Ages in the German-speaking part of Europe, and in many parts of the former Holy Roman Empire that includes many eastern regions of France.
Dresden's Striezelmarkt was first held in 1434 and is considered the first genuine Christmas market, as earlier markets were rather December markets. Early mentions of these December markets can be found in Vienna (1298), Munich (1310), Bautzen (1384), and Frankfurt (1393).
In many towns in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria, Advent is usually ushered in with the opening of the Christmas market or Weihnachtsmarkt. In southern Germany, Switzerland and Austria, it is called a Christkind(e)l(s)(i)markt (German language, literally meaning Christ child market). Traditionally held in the town square, the market has food, drink and seasonal items from open-air stalls accompanied by traditional singing and dancing. On opening night at the Christkindlesmarkt in Nuremberg, and in some other towns, onlookers welcome the Christkind (originally boy Jesus, but often depicted as an angel-like girl), acted out by a local child.
Popular attractions at the markets include the Nativity Scene (a crèche or crib), Zwetschgenmännle (figures made of decorated dried plums), Nussknacker (carved Nutcrackers), Gebrannte Mandeln (candied, toasted almonds), traditional Christmas cookies such as Lebkuchen and Magenbrot (both forms of soft gingerbread), Bratwurst, and for many visitors one of the highlights of the market: Glühwein, hot mulled wine (with or without a shot of brandy), or Eierpunsch (an egg-based warm alcoholic drink). Both help stave off the cold winter air which sometimes dips below freezing. More regional food specialties include Christstollen (Stollen), a sort of bread with candied fruit in Saxony, and hot Apfelwein and Frankfurter Bethmännchen in Hesse.
