There is no country, no civilization where religion hasn’t left its visible and beautiful traces. It's Egyptian pyramids and sphinxes storing the former grandeur, Gothic cathedrals of Europe, Armenian monasteries and cross-stones, many kilometers of stunning Indian “images” of American deserts, dainty Chinese painting, amazing Japanese art of ikebana and the shapes of rock gardens and, finally, the significant part of world literature, music, dance, art. Plunging into sacred traditions and legends, strange rituals and customs, you can, together with the Radio Vem, penetrate the arches of the majestic temples, be in the ancient shrines of different nations and under the shadows of sacred trees, find out what religion they practice, what kind of life they live, how they perceive the world and themselves, what and how they
worship.

The anticipation of the end of the world and the destruction of gods is peculiar to the Norse mythology. The reason for this is perhaps the circumstance that the main group of Scandinavian myths was formed in the era of the destruction of the tribal class when there were divisions and battles. Most probably, the creators of Scandinavian myths were not able to cope with these events.
