Shrines are located in public spaces, places of worship and private spaces. Shrines can be created at burial sites or where families gather in the home. A shrine can be a place of healing and spiritual connection, quiet meditation and memory. Present day shrines and altars are constructed around the world and contain common elements shared across cultures. Shrines can be monumental or highly personal and portable, but always impart a sense of connectivity and peace.
