Pucca

Een postkaart van Pucca!

A postcard from Pucca!

Pucca is een Zuid-Koreaans tekenfilm figuur. Ze is het 10 jaar oude nichtje van drie noodle huis eigenaars. Pucca is verliefd op de 12 jaar oude ninja Garu, die niet altijd even blij is met de aandacht. Pucca is erg sterk en verslaat Garu in elk gevecht en onbedoelde wedstrijden. Pucca en Garu spreken niet en dat maakt het gemakkelijk hen over heel de wereld te begrijpen. 

Pucca is a South-Korean cartoon character. She is the 10 year old niece of three noodle house owners. She is in love with the 12 year old ninja Garu, who isn't always happy with the attention. Pucca is really strong and always seems to beat Garu in battle and unintended competitions. Pucca and Garu never speak, which makes it easy to understand them around the world.

Helsinki

Mooie zichten van Helsinki.

Beautiful views from Helsinki.

right upper corner: Temppeliaukio Church

centre: Helsinki Cathedral

left lower corner: Uspenski Orthodox cathedral

The Temppeliaukio Church is a Lutheran church, which interior was excavated and built into the rock, with natural daylight beeing able to enter through the glazed dome. The acoustic quality is ensured by the rough, virtually unworked rock surfaces. The stone-hewn church is located in the heart of Helsinki and a very popular tourist attraction.


The Helsinki Cathedral is an Evangelical Lutheran cathedral, in neoclassical style. The church was originally built as a tribute to the Grand Duke, Nicholas I, the Tsar of Russia and until the independance of Finland in 1917, it was called St. Nicholas church.


The Uspenski Cathedral is an Eastern Orthodox cathedral, dedicated to the Dormition of the Theotokos (= the Assumption of Mary). Its name comes from the Old Church Slavonic word "uspenie", which denotes the Dormition.
