Happy (almost) Easter everyone!

This is the roof of Amarbaysgalant monastery or “monastery of tranquil felicity”, once one of the three largest Buddhist centres in Mongolia is located near the Selenge River in the Iven Valley, at the foot of Mount Büren-Khaan in Baruunbüren sum (district) of Selenge Province in northern Mongolia. The architectural design belongs to G. Zanabazar and the monastery itself was built to honour the memory of him. Looking for a site for building, the exploratory group met two boys, Amur and Bayasqulangtu, playing in a steppe, and decided to build the future monastery at that site and name the monastery after those children.
Built between 1727 and 1736, it is one of the very few monasteries to have partly escaped the destruction of 1937, after which only the buildings of the central section remained. The entire contents: the tankas, statues and manuscripts were looted by the Communists or hidden until more fortunate times. Restoration work began in 1988 and some of the new deities were commissioned in Delhi, India.
A few days ago my family went there.
Hello?
Ok, so this is my official VERY FIRST post for TUMBLR. It`s been a while since I had an account. But I`ve been very busy with lessons, school, and many other things… and couldn`t post anything.I`ve learnt English for almost 5 years. Even though my English is not so good and I make many mistakes. ;P
Today many great events happened. My dearest uncle gave birth 3 days ago which was her first and she had a son. Today I went to hospital with her husband /my brother-in-law/ to let her out of hospital. I gave her bunch of yellow roses and card. The baby / we didn`t give him the name yet/ was so cute and small. His feet were smaller than my palm :))
So gotta finish here, because I am writing letter for my MOM :)Why? you may ask. For the contest and also to apologize her. Tomorrow is International Women`s Day :)
