Sacred Stone Gardens
Persepolis
 

...and I am a traveler, who has journeyed thousands
of kilometers from home, to search in these ancient ruins
, and this land of gains
and sufferings, to leave for the future, sketches
of the spirits,
residing in this sacred stone garden.
 

 

Persepolis which is a true historical monuments, lager than any Egyptian temple or Medieval cathedral,
has continued to endorse the existence of a power beyond human ability.
 Despite its great size, covering an area of about 120 thousand square meters,
 it is a coherent and homogeneous monument. And this is important,
without its "arousing"diversity"being sacrificed, for cohesion and homogeneity.
