🥈 Let's travel together #300 - Grădina Zmeilor (The Garden of Kites) by @gabrielatravels

The first time I heard about The Garden of Kites which is locally known as Grădina Zmeilor, happened around 5 years ago (when time flew so fast?!) when I was getting into libraries in search of postcards to send to my friends from abroad with the desire to make them visit Romania soon. One of these postcards included the Garden of Kites which came as a surprise being the single one from the collage I did not know about, nor visited it before. Hence why it seemed like a pretty good excuse to have it added to my bucket list too, with the promise to discover this place with my own eyes one day, since it was quite far from where I was living to do it sooner. But as life brought many challenges and changes in my life, so it happened when I and my sister moved to a different city than where we lived during our college, which took us more in the middle of the country, also revealing more possibilities to reach parts of Romania we haven't explored before.

🥉 Around Iran no. 6 – Isfahan by @olusiu

You can discuss and argue about every topic except one: "Isfahan is the most beautiful city in Iran." This agglomeration with approximately 2 million inhabitants is the third largest city in Iran. From the capital of Iran, Isfachan is located approximately 350 km south, and as a result, the climate around the city becomes even hotter and even more desert. Such a large city could only be built in the middle of the desert because it is located in an oasis at the foot of the Zagros Mountains at a significant altitude of 1,590 meters above sea level. Isfahan is located more or less in the heart of the country at the intersection of ancient trade routes leading from north to south and east to west, which has long made it a great commercial and industrial center. The heyday of Isfahan dates back to the 16th century, when Shah Abbas I the Great of the Safavid dynasty established the capital of the Persian Empire in this city. The city then grew to enormous sizes, becoming one of the largest cities in the world at that time, with over a million inhabitants.
