Delhi: Hindustani pronunciation: [d̪ɪlliː] Dilli, officially the National Capital Territory of Delhi or NCT, is a city and a union territory of India. It is bordered by Haryana on three sides and by Uttar Pradesh to the east. The NCT covers an area of 1,484 square kilometres (573 sq mi). According to 2011 census, Delhi's city proper population was over 11 million, the second highest in India after Mumbai, while the whole NCT's population was about 16.8 million. Delhi's urban area is now considered to extend beyond the NCT boundary to include an estimated population of over 26 million people making it the world's second largest urban area. As of 2016 recent estimates of the metro economy of its urban area have ranked Delhi either the top or second most productive metro area of India. Delhi is the second wealthiest city after Mumbai in India, with a total wealth of $450 billion and home to 18 billionaires and 23,000 millionaires.
Delhi has been continuously inhabited since the 6th century BC.Through most of its history, Delhi has served as a capital of various kingdoms and empires. It has been captured, ransacked and rebuilt several times, particularly during the medieval period, and modern Delhi is a cluster of a number of cities spread across the metropolitan region. A union territory, the political administration of the NCT of Delhi today more closely resembles that of a state of India, with its own legislature, high court and an executive council of ministers headed by a Chief Minister. New Delhi is jointly administered by the federal government of India and the local government of Delhi, and is the capital of the NCT of Delhi. Delhi hosted the first and ninth Asian Games in 1951 and 1982 respectively, 1983 NAM Summit, 2010 Men's Hockey World Cup, 2010 Commonwealth Games, 2012 BRICS Summit and was one of the major host cities of the 2011 Cricket World Cup. Delhi is also the centre of the National Capital Region (NCR), which is a unique 'interstate regional planning' area created by the National Capital Region Planning Board Act of 1985.
Delhi's culture has been influenced by its lengthy history and historic association as the capital of India, Although a strong Punjabi Influence can be seen in language, Dress and Cuisine brought by the large number of refugees who came following the partition in 1947 the recent migration from other parts of India has made it a melting pot. This is exemplified by many significant monuments in the city. Delhi is also identified as the location of Indraprastha, the ancient capital of the Pandavas. The Archaeological Survey of India recognises 1200 heritage buildings and 175 monuments as national heritage sites. In the Old City, the Mughals and the Turkic rulers constructed several architecturally significant buildings, such as the Jama Masjid – India's largest mosque built in 1656 and the Red Fort. Three World Heritage Sites – the Red Fort, Qutab Minar and Humayun's Tomb – are located in Delhi. Other monuments include the India Gate, the Jantar Mantar – an 18th-century astronomical observatory – and the Purana Qila – a 16th-century fortress. The Laxminarayan temple, Akshardham temple,Bangla Sahib the Bahá'í Lotus temple and the ISKCON temple are examples of modern architecture. Raj Ghat and associated memorials houses memorials of Mahatma Gandhi and other notable personalities. New Delhi houses several government buildings and official residences reminiscent of British colonial architecture, including the Rashtrapati Bhavan, the Secretariat, Rajpath, the Parliament of India and Vijay Chowk. Safdarjung's Tomb is an example of the Mughal gardens style. Some regal havelis (palatial residences) are in the Old City.

Ejigbo is a prominent town in Yoruba Land and the headquarters of Ejigbo Local Government Area, one of the oldest local government areas of Osun State in Nigeria. Ejigbo is strategically placed in the middle of the region, as 35 kilometres (22 mi) north-east of Iwo, 30 km (19 mi) from Ogbomoso in the north and 24 km (15 mi) from Ede in the south-east. It is about 40 km (25 mi) north-west of Osogbo, the capital of Osun State, and about 95 km (59 mi) north-east of Ibadan. It is part of the Ede North/Ede South/Egbedore/Ejigbo federal constituency. The population is 138,357 according to the GeoNames geographical database. The average elevation is 426 metres (1,398 ft).
It has an area of 373 square kilometres (144 sq mi) and had a population of 132,641 at the 2006 census. The average annual rainfall is 52.35 inches (1,330 mm), though there are great deviations from this mean value from year to year. Usually, the rainy season lasts from April to October.
Brief history of Ejigbo
Akinjole Ogiyan, The founder of Ejigbo Land
Ejigbo is a major Yoruba town in Osun State of Nigeria. It is about 40 kilometres (25 mi) to Oshogbo, the capital of Osun State.
According to oral history, Ejigbo is an ancient settlement. It was founded by Akinjole Ogiyan (abbreviation of "Ogiriniyan"), right after the old Oyo. Ogiyan has a rich pedigree, as a descendant of Oduduwa and the ruling family of Ile-Ife. Together with his brothers, particularly the Akire, the founder of Ikire-Ile, left Ile life with Oranya (Oranmiyan) – the founder of old Oyo, to establish their own town. The fact that the Ogiyan is from Ile-Ife, is confirmed by "Ejigbo Mekun" the name of a market in Ile-Ife. Akinjole settled many other villages spread around Yorubaland. He was the paramount ruler and prescribed authority over many if not all of them. The following towns and villages, among others, were under him: Ika, Igbon, Olosinmo, Ologede, Inisa, Aato, Ijimoba, Afake, Ilawo, Inisa Edoro, Isundunrin, Olla, Ado Ori-Oke, Ayegunle, Idigba, Ibogunde, Songbe, Olorin, Osuntedo and Iwata.
Around 1835, Ejigbo came under Ibadan, when the Ibadan army moved to protect Osogbo from Ilorin invaders. In fact, detachments from Ejigbo assisted the Ibadan army in the Osogbo, Ijaye, Jalumi, Off, and Kiriji wars between 1840 and 1866. Ajayi Ogboriefon, Balogun and leader of the Ibadan army in the Jalumi war circa 1860 and 1878 was native of Ejigbo from the Akala compound. His mother, Alagbabi, was the daughter of an Ogiyan of Ejigbo. In 1934, when the then government returned to the terms of the 1893 Treaty, which recognized Ibadan's independence and gazettes of the Baale and Divisional Council of Ibadan as an Independent Native Authority, five district obas, including the Ogiyan, were made members of the divisional Council.
The Ogiyan and council were also gazetted as subordinated to Native Authority under Ibadan for Ejigbo District Council. Although changes were made enlarging the membership of the Council between 1937 and 1938, the five districts Obas that included the Ogiyan retained their membership of the said Divisional Native Authority.

Aceh Utara District
(Aceh: Acèh Barôh, Jawi: اچيه باروح) is a district located in the province of Aceh, Indonesia.
The district's capital was moved from Lhokseumawe to Lhoksukon, following Lhokseumawe as an autonomous city.
This district is classified as the largest industrial area in the province and is also classified as the largest industry outside Java, especially with the opening of liquefied natural gas processing industry PT. Arun LNG in Lhokseumawe in 1974. In this area there are also other big factories: Kraft Aceh Paper Factory, AAF Fertilizer (Aceh Asean Fertilizer) factory and Iskandar Muda Pupuk factory (PIM).
In the agricultural sector, this region has its own reputable reputation as a very important rice producer. then as a whole the District of North Aceh is the most potential Level II region in the province and per capita income above paras Rp. 1.4 million without oil / gas or Rp. 6 million with oil and gas.
Oil and gas fields were discovered in Lhokseumawe, the capital of North Aceh around the 1970s. Then, Acehpun began to be visited by foreign investors who are interested in the great natural resources. Since then, liquefied natural gas or Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) processed at PT. Arun Natural Gas Liquefaction (NGL) Co., which comes from the installation of ExxonMobil Oil Indonesia Inc. (EMOI) in the Lhokseumawe industrial zone, has transformed the region into a modern petrochemical industry.
Economic activity of North Aceh Regency is dominated by two sectors, namely mining and quarrying sector, and manufacturing industry sector. In the mining sector, gas wells processed by PT. EMOI is certainly one of the advantages of this sector. With a contribution of Rp 8.6 trillion in Gross Regional Domestic Product (PDRB) in 2000, he was ranked first followed by the industry sector of Rp 4.7 trillion.
In the field of religion, the people of Aceh Utara are religiously devout Muslims. In 1994, there were 782 people who went on the pilgrimage.
North Aceh now occupies the former territory of the Islamic Kingdom of Pasai Ocean. Pasai Sultanate according to some opinions mentioned as the first kingdom to adopt the system of Islamic governance in the archipelago. The Pasai Sultanate experienced approximately 300 years of glorious period until the arrival of the European explorer who subjugated the sultanate to almost nothing. Just a little of the history of the greatness of the Sultanate of Pasai that we still encounter today. The most prominent site of Pasai Ocean history is the complex of the tomb of Sultan Malikussaleh and the Tomb of Sultanah Nahrasiyah located in the coastal subdistrict of Samudera now. In the past, often historical artifacts in the form of gold coins found hidden in the ground on the former capital of the ancient Pasai Empire, but now this discovery is rare. When the Dutch invaded Aceh and succeeded in establishing a colonial government in 1904, Aceh Utara was designated an Afdeeling District led by the Resident Assistant. This vast territory is named Afdeeling Noord Kust Van Aceh (North Aceh District). Afdeeling is divided into 3 onderafdeeling (Kewedanaan) headed by a Countroleur (Wedana) namely: Onder Afdeeling Bireuen, Onder Afdeeling Lhokseumawe and Onder Afdeeling Lhoksukon. Besides, the Dutch East Indies government also set some Ulee Balang Regional Power which has self-government to the region and its people. This region is named as Zelf Bestuur In addition to Onder Afdeeling in North Aceh there are also some Ulee Balang Area (Zelf Bestuur) which has the right to govern itself against the area and its people are Ulee Balang Keureutoe, Geureugok, Jeumpa, and Peusangan each Zelf Bestuur is led by Ampon Chik.
After the independence period of Aceh Utara government territory was maintained in the territory once established by the Dutch. Based on Law No. 1 of 1957 and Presidential Decree No. 6 of 1959. The District of North Aceh Level II is divided into 3 (three) Kewedanaan namely: Kewedanaan Bireuen consists of 7 districts, Kewedanan Lhokseumawe consists of 8 Subdistricts, Luckking Lhoksukon consists of 8 districts .
Along with the development and growth of the region, population growth and the spirit of regional autonomy in 1999 on the former Bireun kewedanaan set to Bireuen District and in 2001 Lhokseumawe City following the new municipality out of North Aceh regency.

Banda Aceh
banda aceh as the capital of the Sultanate of Aceh Darussalam stood in the 14th century. The Sultanate of Aceh Darussalam was built on the ruins of previously existing Hindu and Buddhist kingdoms, such as the Indra Purba Kingdom, Indra Purwa Kingdom, Indra Patra Kingdom, Indrapuri Kingdom (Indrapuri). From the tomb of Sultan Firman Syah, one of the sultans who once ruled the Sultanate of Aceh, obtained information that the Sultanate of Aceh is capitalized in Kutaraja (Banda Aceh). (H. Mohammad Said a, 1981: 157).
The emergence of the Sultanate of Aceh Darussalam which capitalized in Banda Aceh can not be separated from the existence of the Lamuri Islamic Kingdom. At the end of the 15th century, with the establishment of a good relationship with the neighboring kingdom, the center of the throne of the Lamuri Kingdom was moved to Meukuta Alam. [1] The location of the Meukuta Alam palace is in the Banda Aceh region.
Sultan Ali Mughayat Shah ruled the Sultanate of Aceh Darussalam which capitalized in Banda Aceh, only for 10 years. According to an inscription found from the tomb of Sultan Ali Mughayat Syah, the first leader of the Sultanate of Aceh Darussalam died at 12 Dhul-Hijjah Year 936 Hijri or coinciding with August 7, 1530 AD. Although the reign of Sultan Mughayat Syah is relatively short, but he managed to build Banda Aceh as the center of Islamic civilization in Southeast Asia. At this time, Banda Aceh has evolved into one of the city's central defense that secured the maritime trade routes and the traffic of pilgrims from piracy by the Portuguese fleet.
At the time of Sultan Iskandar Muda, Banda Aceh grew back as a maritime trading center, especially for pepper commodities which at that time was very high demand from Europe. Iskandar Muda made Banda Aceh a world park, starting from the palace complex. The palace complex of the Sultanate of Aceh is also named Darud Dunya (World Park).
During the second Dutch aggression, there was a massive evacuation of Aceh troops out of Banda Aceh which was later celebrated by Van Swieten by proclaiming the fall of the sultanate of Aceh and changing the name of Banda Aceh to Kuta King. After entering the banner of the Government of the new Republic of Indonesia since December 28, 1962 the name of this city was again changed to Banda Aceh based on the Decree of the Minister of Public Administration and Regional Autonomy dated May 9, 1963. Dec 52/1 / 43-43
On December 26, 2004, the city was hit by a tsunami tidal wave caused by the 9.2 Richter scale earthquake in the Indonesian Ocean. This disaster swallowed hundreds of thousands of people and destroyed more than 60% of the city's buildings. Based on statistical data released by Banda Aceh City Government, the population of Banda Aceh City until the end of May 2012

Lagos popularly known as EKO is a city in the Nigerian state of the same name. The city, with its adjoining conurbation, is the largest in Nigeria, as well as on the African continent. It is one of the fastest growing in the world,and also one of the most populous urban agglomerations. Lagos is a major financial centre in Africa; the megacity has the highest GDP, and also houses one of the largest and busiest ports on the continent.
Lagos initially emerged as a port city which originated on a collection of islands, which are contained in the present day Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Lagos Island, Eti-Osa, Amuwo-Odofin and Apapa; the islands are separated by creeks, fringing the southwest mouth of Lagos Lagoon, while protected from the Atlantic Ocean by barrier islands and long sand spits such as Bar Beach, which stretch up to 100 km (60 mi) east and west of the mouth. Due to rapid urbanization, the city expanded to the west of the lagoon to include areas in the present day Lagos Mainland, Ajeromi-Ifelodun and Surulere. This led to the classification of Lagos into two main areas - the Island, which was the initial city of Lagos, before it expanded into the area known as the Mainland.
Lagos, the capital of Nigeria since its amalgamation in 1914, went on to become the capital of Lagos State after its creation. However, the state capital was later moved to Ikeja in 1976, while the federal capital also moved to Abuja in 1991. Even though Lagos is still widely referred to as a city, the present day Lagos, also known as "Metropolitan Lagos", and officially as "Lagos Metropolitan Area is an urban agglomeration or conurbation.
The exact population of Metropolitan Lagos is disputed. In the 2006 federal census data, the conurbation had a population of about 8 million people. However, the figure was disputed by the Lagos State Government, which later released its own population data, putting the population of Lagos Metropolitan Area at approximately 16 million. As at 2015, unofficial figures put the population of "Greater Metropolitan Lagos", which includes, Lagos and its surrounding metro area, extending as far as into Ogun State, at approximately 21 million

Ibadan, located in Western Nigeria, is the country’s second largest city in West Africa and second largest city in Africa. Also, a capital of the Oyo state. Home to the University of Ibadan, it is a leader in the nation’s institutions of education, health, and economics. The dominant religions are Christianity and Islam.
Although literature suggests the initial creation of the city as circumstantial, the growth and transition of Ibadan into one of the dominant cities in West Africa confirms its relevance and impact. The history of Ibadan had long been preserved through oral history but written records place its official founding in 1829. After the collapse of the Yoruba Empire towards the end of the 18th century, the area which is now Ibadan had been populated by Yoruba rebels. Located between the forests and the plains and surrounded by seven hills, it functioned as a sanctuary for the fighters that fled. Ibadan served that purpose again in the early 19th century when the intertribal conflict that led the Ife, Ijebu, and Oyo ethnic groups to flee the Fulani who were expanding into the region from the northwest.
When the British extended a protectorate over the region in 1893, Ibadan had roughly 120,000 residents. The British colonial administration built a railroad that reached Ibadan in 1901 and eventually reached Kano in Northern Nigeria by 1912. As a major trading center along the rail route Ibadan grew rapidly and prospered because the surrounding region produced cassava, cocoa, cotton, rubber, timber, and palm oil. As its population grew, the city also developed manufacturing and service industries.
In 1948 the University of Ibadan was founded as a branch of the University of London. As such it was the first institution of higher education in the most populous colony in Africa. Two years following Nigerian independence in 1960, the University of Ibadan became independent as well. With its University College Hospital and the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture, the University of Ibadan remains one of the leading institutions of higher education in Nigeria and the rest of Western Africa.
Ibadan's government, like that of Nigeria, began the process of decolonization in the 1950s. At independence in 1960, Ibadan was the third most populous city in Africa after Cairo and Johannesburg. During the first years of independence, however, from 1960 to 1980, the powerful Western State government dominated the city administration and monopolized the taxing authority. By the early 1990s privatized services such as schools, health facilities, and even roads emerged due to the inability of Ibadan's government to provide basic services. In 1991 the Nigerian federal government returned control and especially taxing authority to metropolitan Ibadan which in the same year became capitol the of the newly organized and smaller Oyo state.

Sipinsur, that's the name of a tourist attraction that presents a panoramic view of the lake Toba's natural scenery, this tourist spot is in the village Pearung, District Paranginan, Humbang Hasundutan district, North Sumatra. Maybe talk about lake toba you will imagine the name of the city of Parapat and Samosir Island, as 2 locations that are very closely with the popular name of Lake Toba in the tourism circle of Indonesia and the world. Lake Toba is indeed a fascinating natural wonder, and Toba Lake is one of the many things we call His greatest grace. Back to the above topics, this sipinsur provides travel experience or quite different tourist experience, when you want to enjoy the beauty of toba lake tour. If from parapat, the sensation of the holidays that we get is probably the thrill of playing water lake Toba on the edge of the beach, and if you are in Samosir island you will get the sensation of tourism where you stand on the island in the middle of the largest lake as southeast asia and all panorama which exists. However, if you visit the location of this sipinsur tour, then you will get the sensation of the tour is a beautiful natural scenery. Sipinsur has a very beautiful location, on a hill but not necessarily up and down for the road to its location, a smooth road if you come from dolok bun - lintongnihuta and Silangit - paranginan area. When standing on the edge of the fence, you can see the vast view of lake Toba, blue water, beautiful hills surround it with green, while sibandan island (also island in the middle of lake Toba) right in front of you, in the distance Samosir Island looks elongated like fall asleep and bump and look a bit bluish, maybe it's because of the reflection of the blue sky and the lake water.
Meanwhile, while enjoying the stunning scenery, you can sit back and relax in the green grass or in the huts that are provided and built near the lush pine trees, the atmosphere is like in the mountains, the breeze blows in your ears as if to say that We peaceful and beautiful, we are NATURAL. For the affairs of the facility, in this location there is a children's play area, and around the location there is a fitting road for jogging which the road is right on the edge of the hill, and the view is lake toba. One unique thing is from here The city of estuary looks very elegant with the road like a line of winding splitting fields and houses of people who look small like to show life between nature and humans, estuaries are right on the edge of Lake Toba and are under foothills that surround lake Toba.
Ah ... talking about lake toba, especially sipinsur this is quite a lot of things you want to write, waving fingers probably will not be enough to write the beauty of Lake Toba generally. Sipinsur.
Wonderful Indonesia, I just go there only one time in my life when I'am a child

Hello @xpilar, I have really exited for contribute on you contest. This time I'll present a picture of the beauty scenery from my village.
Most of my villagers work as farmers, traditional stone miners and the lumberjack wannabe.

My village is above the hills flanked by two great rivers, Badeng and the Kumbo river. In this picture is only the Badeng river that I photographed because the rain has started here.

The beauty of home my home town Sukabumi ... Love Nature
Hmmmm…. So the overseas people are not as comfortable as before, let alone observed in the profession as a regular student. Difficult to earn own income. Yep .. at the age of 19 this year to eat, tuition and other living expenses still rely on subsidies from parents. Shame really, really embarrassed. But, look for work that the term "part time" is also a bit difficult here. So what can I do, now yaa really study first wrote before entering the world of work later said my parents.
Sometimes students sometimes need "refreshing" to cool the mind of the assigned task of the lecturer, moreover many revisions of papers or other errors. Arrrghhh ... Students in my campus usually they climb the mountain, either emang hobby or indeed they are city people who already bored with views of buildings and malls. Different ama me that emang originally mountain people. Haha .. joking. But emang my house is at the foot of the mountain bark. Hehe .. Kalo dizzy again the same task college, it's like to go home. Look at the faces of my parents and my younger siblings at home. No need to walk to the tourist attractions because emang according to my hometown tuh already kayak tourist attractions. Believe or not, my hometown is really beautiful with nature. How baseball, from my house can see 4 mountains of Salak mountain, Mount Halimun (still his son's mountain salak maybe hehe), mountains wayang and mountain gede, and if in portrait beuuuhh really cool. Can dapet sunrise behind the big mountain sunlight nyorot to the expanse of rice fields deket home. In addition, in my hometown there is also a lake called Sukarame lake. Okay, my own house is in Kp.Cileuleuy Sukatani District Parakansalak Kab. Sukabumi West Java, Indonesia. Okay, for more information to describe my hometown, let's take a look at pictures below ..

Cileuleuy Sukatani District Parakansalak Kab. Sukabumi West Java, Indonesia. Okay, for more information to describe my hometown, let's take a look at pictures below ..
Well, I took this picture in the morning, it's about 05.30 AM. You guys can see the beautiful Gede Mountain and the blue sky before the sunrise. The photographs fit sunrisenya ..
Yeah, the sun is rising behind Gede Mountain. The air here is pretty cold, if the morning can be 17 degrees Celcius (my accuweather said hp) and if the hottest lunch ampw 28 drajat celcius. Not bad. Usually every day, I never pass through the sunrise in my hometown, too beautiful to miss. Hehe .. Usually after 6 hours I directly "jog" to there sukarame, the distance is approximately 3 km doang from my house. The place is really nice bro, cool dah .. Nih place ..
The story is very long about this lake, once the Dutch say that this name is "park under salk", because the Indonesian people especially the Sundanese origin denger, they say "parakansalak". This lake is not a natural lake but an artificial lake. Created in the old days pas dutch still colonize Indonesia. It is said that this is a dam (Sundanese language) which is indeed a meeting of 7 rivers. And this lake is right under the mountain bark. But unfortunately really mountain salaknya not photographed because of blocked cliffs and hills. But there is a mountain that is visible from this lake that is wayang mountain. Try deh scrool again up there is a mountain, it's called wayang mountain. Uniquely this lake has a small island in the middle, different from other lakes. Hehe. Usually if I'm jogging from home at 6 am until the lake is around 06:35. so good at this lake, usually I ngadem until 08.00. Hahaa .. Not ngelamun cuman again mentadaburi nature. Really Beautiful Nature of God's Creation ... Well, abis come home from the lake, usually I take the road back together the same way to go, because pengen ngaliwat alias path through the rice fields. Hehe. And again the scenery is also not less cool ,. This time the appearance of the mountain of barking, wayang, halimun and mountain gede at once in one glance. Sok mangga tingali ku hidep .. galaxy and mountain gede at once in one glance. Sok mangga tingali ku hidep .. galaxy and mountain gede at once in one glance. Sok mangga tingali ku hidep ..
The mountains are mountains of wayang, halimun and mountain bark. While the misah own emang position is a little far from the view of the big mountain. and there is one more that I seneng from my house, kalo open the window of the room, look pemandagan that subhanAllah cool ..
Yapp. This is my hometown that has become the most comfortable place for me in this world. This is my village, where is your hometown Thanks.
Wonderful scenery picture, Very natural , Voted

I live in Norway and here many also have to have the help of their parents to study
Even though Norway is now a rich country, it is a strict policy so that it is fodder on the planet that must be fair. While working part-time here too
I just know the information for a strict policy of your country, Nice to hear new information about
Most people are doing well in Norway, but this is also common with many children's families
And not easy at schools to have enough money to drive, everything is expensive in Norway now.
What happened in Norway now may be different from few years ago, Many people from Aceh in the conflict time out of area and Looking for political asylum abroad, and one of the countries they occupy is Norway, And I see that even though Aceh is peaceful after conflict their never go home, I think life there is easier than other countries, Norway is one of the famous scandinavian countries various policies that favor the public.
We welcome many immigrants and they must also be taken care of. It costs.
Most people have a good life in Norway. But families who have children who are going to study fever must help
Hmmm.. I knew now..most people have not a good life in my area, But their children who are going to study here in compentation of the Goverment, and just the rich families does not compentation for the study from Goverment. it's the differences both our country sir I think, Thank you for share it, How to make conversation with you? I don't meet your name in steemchat sir :)
Asyuth big home town
Asyuth or Asyut (Arabic: أسيوط) is a city located in the governorate of Asyuth, Egypt.
The city is located 375 kilometers south of Cairo, and in the Early Between Age, the city was named Zawty. Asyuth is the 13th capital of Upper Egypt.
Although Asyuth is famous of ancient Egyptian sources, the remains of Ancient Egypt remained in the Asyuth cemetery, located in modern western Asyuth. Most of the cemeteries found here come from Dynasties IX, X, and XII. The writing contained in the cemetery provides important information on the conflict between the Herakleopolis IX and X and the XI Thebes dynasties.
In the Greco-Roman period, the city was named Lycopolis.

Hello @xpilar, I'm a newbie here who accidentally found this post, so I decided to follow this contest. Picture take a week ago by my self.
This is one of the famous beaches in my place, its name is Red Island.
Red Island Beach is favored as one of the exciting family tourist destinations. This place is the perfect place to enjoy the dusk and the typical beach breeze.
On this beach I used to enjoy the view of the sunset. The charm of the sunset can be said as one of the spectacular scenery that this place is served. Although called Red Island, the sand on this beach is not red but rather a bit brownish white. New when the dry season arrives, this beach area will look red.
This is my story for the first time and my first post also. Thank you @xpilar.
Welcome to the competition @popoo
The picture is very beautiful and thank you for your information
Thank you @xpilar, I'llbe exited to join another contest from you.
Nice to hear @popoo
My Home town
: and other public services, for those luxuries that are to some extent fulfilled. Life relying on a canoe and living in a house on stilts is typical of Batu Pengkalen residents. A total of 120 Batu Stone people everyday use the boat as a means of transportation. Appeared on Friday afternoon ago, dozens of boats tied in the marshes of the River Factory. The swamp is the entrance to the village of Batu Pengkalen which is decades isolated and without adequate public service facilities. This boat is used to carry the corpse, because the village does not have a Public Cemetery (TPU). "
Everyone who died we took him using a keranda, then put on a boat, it is difficult if the dry season, the water often receded, the residents must push the boat first to the middle to the boat road," said Pardi, citizen Pengkalen Batu.
That location became the main point of the River Factory to go to Batu Pengkalen. Vice versa. Although including the South Bangka regency, this village is closer to Pangkalpinang. From Pangkalpinang, residents or migrants travel a distance of 93 kilometers to reach Pengkalen Batu. Pardi is quite adept at rowing a boat carrying Bangka Pos along the forest and swamp that is wide enough. According to Pardi, Pengkalen Batu residents have been relying on river transportation for decades. No other access can be used other than the River Factory flow.
About 20 minutes sailing from Ranggung Village, Bangka Pos arrived at the Batu Pengkalen boat base. Naturally Pardi must be adept at rowing a canoe. The river flow along with Bangka Pos is quite winding and narrow. The Batu Penkalen settlement area is about one kilometer from the boat base. The graveled dirt road brings Bangka Pos to a village that relies solely on electricity from the diesel and solar powered engines. Pardi calls solar panels recently enjoyed by Pengkalen Batu residents.
Good info and nice pictures @hesteem
my home town Kampung Bajo Sampela, a village life story above the reef.
The bridges that stand on the pile which in some parts has been shaped like a concrete bridge the community kinship here. Down and down the little kids running around with their peers. The little boats seemed to be moored regularly in small canals that were actually sea. The "Apo" arrangement or the rocks that form the foundation of their yard look solid. It was a very modest evening in a village standing in the sea of kaledupa, the village of Bajo Sama Bahari.
It used to be called Kampung bajo Sampela village. But now this village changed its name to Sama bahari. This bajo tribe village is located not far from the mainland Kaledupa, Wakatobi. I use a small robin-engined boat that takes about 15-20 minutes from the Kaledupa mainland. And a small pier welcomes me as I enter this marine village of Sama.
Little boisterous kids gathered at the dock when I arrived. They look very enthusiastic with the immigrants. My step was directed to a house of the father of the village head of Sama Bahari village. After meeting and expressing the purpose of arrival, I went back down the path that is actually a small bridge that stood on the sea.
These bridges seem to be a link between the families in the village. But I also found some homes that have not been connected with this tiny bridge. If you have this story, a small boat is their means of transportation. With that little boat they do everything. From taking water to the ground, shopping, fishing, or just visiting relatives.
The origin of the existence of the Bajo tribe is still confusing. Some argue that this tribe was once a migrant from the South China Sea, but there is also a version explaining that this Bajo tribe is a follower of King Sameng in Johor who is looking for a princess who was married to a prince of bugis and settled in Sulawesi. From whence the origin of this tribe is very unique. In fact they got the nickname of the sea Gipsy.
Once these bajo tribes were known as boatmen, as they lived on boats. But over the times Tribe has started to recognize technology and settled life, although not far from the sea, even still in the middle of the sea. The reason why they are never far from the sea is because the sea is their field. They used to earn a living and live their lives at sea. The fish they catch in the traditional way in the middle of the sea are usually sold to Wanci mainland, but usually there are boats steaming fish catches in this village, so they do not have to go all the way to Wanci.
This tribe believes in "Umbo Mandilao" or the sea guard. They used to call this sea-guard with an ancestor living in the sea. They always believe that Umbo Madilao is always adding fish in the sea so as not to run out even though every day they catch. And they also believe that the sea guard is the one who always keep their life at sea anytime.
Labuka, this Sama Bahari village youth took me to his house. The fish that cultivate that night around the village we will burn in the yard of his house. Kampung darkness that night. But I am grateful with the darkness of the village I can see thousands of stars scattered in the sky right above this village. While making my fire tingle with the dark conditions of the village, what is this? Has not electricity reached this little village yet?
It turns out the questions in my heart in Labuka answer with deep inner tone. "Maybe the genset is damaged bang, or no one paid to buy oil for generator" a sentence slid from the mouth of my new best friend. And it turns out to turn on the generator they have to pay two thousand rupiah per house per night. Heiii to two thousand silver really means for information here, where is the conscience of our officials in the city of Jakarta Far away there, to the extent that they do not see the life of a village far from the glittering city full of facilities.
Fresh sea fish ready for us to burn. Meanwhile Labuka brought a bowl of saltwater as a natural spice for the fish to be burned. 2 cassowary shapes that are formed like a small cone are also ready to accompany. Kasuami is processed food from cassava that is grated and cooked. Approximately thousands of stars, above the village in the middle of the sea I eat fresh grilled fish and casuami are delicious, Labuka entertain me with a regional song that he sang. I do not know the meaning of the song, but what I capture from the outgoing tones is the bitterness experienced by the Bajo tribe, the village where Labuka was born and lived. The village has not been touched by the uneven development in the country. Ah well, this Sama Bahari Village teaches me about a way of meaningful life in a simple way.

Surely you already know what it is called a village. The village is a place away from urban areas, tall buildings and bustling streets and magnificent malls.
few people say that the village is a place that is not clean, slum and also away from information and lack of communication,
Well, here I will explain that all the problems are not a problem because on the one hand we want the silence of the freshness of air or any area asri.sebagai definition I will explain what are the advantages and disadvantages of living in the hometown.
Friendly Village atmosphere
Compare when we are in urban areas when we meet passers-by and nobody greets because we do not know them, but if we are in the country it feels very comfortable when we meet someone we do not know the person would smile and friendly greeting from the previous do not know we can easily with them.
Cool Air
If we are in urban, there must be many vehicles passing by and removing smoke from the exhaust and making the air very unpleasant in the inhalation and causing pollution which is not good for health but if we are in the countryside or village we will feel cool air clean and avoid pollution. The abundance of trees, vast rice paddies and towering mountains make it a beautiful sight that our eyes see.
Clean Place Whose
word in the village is a dirty place? if we look like where exactly in the city even more dirty especially if clay sewer ditok always filled with smpah we try to compare with the gutter that we assume dirty when we see the ditch in the village look very clear and beautiful.
That is why I am more comfortable living in the hometown that people say is plebeian but this is where the most comfortable to live because the comfort of people can think clearly and can be easy to be grateful so do not keep looking up so that makes people are not satisfied with the we have
Where the place? Very Natural scenery

Aswan Nubian home town
Before I went to Aswan, I only knew about the big dam. I still remember when I was in high school, the Aswan dam became one of the topics in world history lessons. After setting foot in Aswan, I realized that Aswan is apparently not just a matter of a dam. There is little less than the high school world history lessons about Aswan because the books do not mention the civilization of the Nubians, the tribe who inhabited Aswan thousands of years ago. In fact, Nubian civilization as old as Egypt civilization. The progress of their civilization can be seen from the archaeological sites they build. Unfortunately, many of the Nubian sites and their settlements were "drowned" by the Aswan dam construction
