Seduced by Marseille

After finishing my work visit to Marseille, I took the opportunity to stroll around this warmer and sunnier city at the south part of France.



"Boats" and "planes" put up by prayers, who prayed to be protected from tragedies or illnesses.



Notre-Dame de la Garde Church.



Breathtaking seaview from the church.

Just fall in love with the South of France.........:)

Religious candles

Candles' light in the religions, seems no border.

In the Catholic church Notre-Dame de Paris, the candles were lighted during a Mass, which is to indicate the solemnity of the occasion. Sometimes, the prayers light candles to pray for something particular.

As for buddhist temple, those candles were lighted during Chinese New Year and perhaps some buddhist festivals too. The idea remains very similar, to pray for good health or wishes.

Those lights, bring religious hearts on the same ground.
