🥇 🐉 Saeng Tham Shrine 🐲 by @imtase

Built in 1891 by the Hokkien Chinese descendants of the Tan Luan Jae family, it's the Shrine of the Serene Light (Ting Kwan Tang in chinese, Saeng Tham Shrine in Thai). The objective was to provide a sacred place for a cult dedicated to their ancestral gods.

🥈 Plovdiv - the second largest city in Bulgaria by @titofit

In today's post to your attention I want to present my impressions from my visit to Plovdiv. For a long time my wife and I want to visit this beautiful city and yesterday we did it. We decided to take a day vacation and see the sights. Our road by car was about 140 km and about 1:30 hours. After we arrived we headed to the city center.These are the first photos I took after getting out of the car.

🥉 The Wavy Tea Hills of Munnar by @xsasj

Not much after visiting the Indian desert in the North East of India, I travelled all the way down to visit the Teafields in the South. It was located higher in the mountains and since it was summer and pretty hot, it was a nice escape from the 45 degrees desert to a comfortable 25 degrees. But that isn't what I came for. I believe that wavy teafields are truly one of the most beautiful landscapes you can find.
