"位於德國科隆的一座天主教主教座堂,它是科隆市毫無爭議的標誌性建築物。157米高的鐘樓使得它成為德國第二(僅次於烏爾姆市的烏爾姆主教座堂)、世界第三高的教堂,另外也是世界上第三大的哥德式教堂(前兩位是塞維亞主教座堂和米蘭主教座堂)"。-維基百科
"It is 144.5 metres (474 ft) long, 86.5 m (284 ft) wide and its towers are approximately 157 m (515 ft) tall. The cathedral is the largest Gothic church in Northern Europe and has the second-tallest spiresand largest facade of any church in the world." -Wikipedia

| 125 Jahre Automobil (125年的汽車) |
"Vor 125 Jahren wurde vom Kaiserlichen Patentamt in Berlin der Firma Benz & Co. in Mannheim das Patent Nr. 37 435 für ein Fahrzeug mit Gasmotoren-antrieb erteilt. Es gilt als die Geburtsurkunde des Automobils.
Das Sonderpostwertzeichen zeigt das erste von Carl Benz gebaute und 1886 patentierte Dreirad, das mit einer Zeichnung aus der Patentschrift hinterlegt ist. Es hat einen liegend eingebauten Einzylindermotor, der aus einem Hubraum von 954 Kubikzentimetern bei 400/min eine Leistung von 0,75 PS (0,55 kW) entwickelt. Die Höchstgeschwindigkeit des Fahrzeugs beträgt 16 km/h."-Deutsche Post
右邊這張郵票是古董汽車,說到汽車就肯定會想到德國,想到德國車,自然就想到了賓士(Mercedes-Benz),而這輛不起眼的三輪古董老車-今日路上跑的汽車(使用汽油引擎作為動力)們的老祖先,就是由賓士(Mercedes-Benz)創辦人Carl Benz發明的,真想不到。雖然時速僅僅每小時16公里,可能比騎公路車還慢上不少,卻是劃時代的大發明呢!
This is from a Hone Kong girl, Amelia.She sent this postcard for thanks the postcard I sent to her.She asked my zodiac sign and picked the stamps and special postmarks.So sweet. :)))

| 花時間。It's a little tricky in Chinese. A pun? I'm not sure. 花=flower, but we also use it as a verb when we say "spend" time. I like this design. |

This postcard is from Kate, a 23 y/o Russian girl.
"The most important Russian monastery and the spiritual centre of the Russian Orthodox Church. The monastery is situated in the town of Sergiyev Posad, about 70 km to the north-east from Moscow by the road leading to Yaroslavl, and currently is home to over 300 monks." - Wikipedia
第一次收到如此經典的俄羅斯建築物,所以特地查了一下,從屋頂的十字可以推測是教堂之類的建物,明信片上確實有說明,但都是我一竅不通的俄文,只好再度搬出維基百科了。聖三一大修道院是俄羅斯東正教教會的精神中心,俄羅斯最重要的寺院之一,也是俄羅斯正教最大的男修道院,莫斯科東北方70公里的城鎮。
