This one is in Russian, refering to buddhism. Guess that is the route taken by some buddhist piligrim. No idea how old this map is.

Amazing hexagonal symmery of Delhi can be clearly seen in this satellite image. Unfortunately such nice symmetry makes an enemy missile's job easier due to ease of pattern matching. DC and especially Pentagon have also very symmetrical structures.

A beautiful satellite image of Manasarovar and Rakastaal. I liked the caption "Manasarovar, INDIA" for the following image <!--emo&Smile--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> , even though it is in China/Tibet at the moment.
