Uppsala Högar on Christmas Morning - a photo on Flickriver

Uppsala Högar on Christmas Morning

            This pic is actually taken on the morning of Christmas Eve. You see, I decided to go for a run before heading of to my parents place, and my running lap goes up to one of the most historical places in Sweden, the Heaps in Old Uppsala. Old Uppsala used to house what has been called one of the biggest temples in Norse mythology. Now, nothing of that still stands, and, indeed, there's little to say if it ever did exist. What does certainly exist are the Royal Burial Mounds of kings long since gone (actually erected in between 500-700 AD), and imposing they still are. Particularly in this pic, I like to think.
