    © Lonely Planet Publications 227 Imperial Cities, RegionMiddle Atlas & the East ﺍﻷﻃﻠﺲ ﺍﻟﻤﺘﻮﺳﻂ ﻭﺍﻟﺸﺮﻕ ﺭﻬﺸ ﻯﺭﻭﺘﺍﺭﭙﻤﺍ If you were to look for Morocco in microcosm, this region would take the title. Its diversity runs the spectrum from ancient cities and ruins to grand mountain vistas and desert oases. The plains of the north have acted as Morocco’s breadbasket for centuries, feeding the rise of cities whose culture went on to dominate the rest of the country. The Romans were the first to get in on the act, and left remains at Volubilis as testament. IMPERIAL CITIES, MIDDLE The streets of Fez’s World Heritage medina rank high on the must-see list of any visitor to & THE EAST ATLAS the country. Getting lost amid the souqs and alleys is an unforgettable (and often unavoid- able) way to spend a day. Meknès, another imperial capital and near neighbour to Fez offers a more pocket-sized version of the medina experience. To the south, the land rises into the limestone range of the Middle Atlas, which are home to the Barbary ape, Morocco’s only monkey. The area is made for hiking, and in winter the wealthy still come here to ski. Across the mountains, towns like Midelt herald drier climes, and the distinctive kasbahs of the south begin to make an appearance. The desert isn’t far away, and by the time you reach the oasis of Figuig, the olive tree has long given way to the date palm.

  • New Frontiers of Ayurveda – 4. Turkey Prof
    New Frontiers of Ayurveda New Frontiers of Ayurveda – 4. Turkey Prof. Emeritus Subhash Ranade Dr. Sunanda Ranade Officially it is known as the Republic of Turkey, and is country in Eurasia, located mainly in Western Asia, with a smaller portion on the Balkan peninsula in Southeast Europe. Turkey is bordered by eight countries: Greece and Bulgaria to the northwest; Georgia to the northeast; Armenia, the Azerbaijan and Iran to the east; and Iraq and Syria to the south. The country is encircled by seas on three sides, with the Aegean Sea to the west, the Black Sea to the north, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south. The Bosphorus, the Sea of Marmara, and the Dardanelles, which together form the Turkish Straits, divide Thrace and Anatolia and separate Europe from Asia. Ankara is its capital but Istanbul is the country's largest city. Ethnic Turks are more in number and Kurds are in minority. Turkey is a secular, unitary, formerly parliamentary republic which adopted a presidential system with a referendum in 2017; the new system came into effect with the presidential election in 2018. Turkey's current administration headed by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan of the AKP has enacted measures to increase the influence of Islam, and also reversed earlier reforms such as freedom of press. Within this unitary framework, Turkey is subdivided into 81 provinces for administrative purposes. Each province is divided into districts, for a total of 923 districts. Turkey is also subdivided into 7 regions and 21 sub regions for geographic, demographic and economic purposes. Our Visits to Turkey – International Academy of Ayurveda had signed MOU with Israeli Center of Ayurveda affiliated to the University of Tel Aviv and we were conducting 2 year Ayurveda Certificate course for 7 years.

Nur selten können diese mit empirischen Daten hinterlegt werden. Die hier vorliegende Arbeit ist Teil eines multidisziplinären Forschungsprojekts (Hammam 2008), mit dem Fokus auf die thermischen, akustischen und visuellen Eigenschaften einer bestimmten Klasse von traditionellen Bauten, nämlich öffentlicher islamischer Bäder ‐ „Hammams“,‐ welche über mehrere Jahrhunderte ein etablierter Bautyp islamischer Bautradition war und ist (Grotzfeld 1970, Dow 1996).
