Our winners today 🍍


🥇 The Citadel of Women, Banteay Srei, Cambodia by @engilhramn

Banteay Srei is the first temple we visited when we arrived in Cambodia. My wife insisted it was the most beautiful, because "women", obviously. It is located in Angkor area, not very far away the main sites. The temple was built in the 10th century and is dedicated to the god Shiva. It is structured with three concentric enclosures leading to the central sanctuary. It is built out of red sandstone which, well you will see, allows the finest carving.

🥈 My first walk in the mountains, Szrenica peak, Czech republic by @rsphotos

Below you will find a report from my first walk in the mountains. And the first ones I visited are the Karkonosze Mountains, so they were not among the most difficult to overcome on foot. Szklarska Poręba was the starting point for a several-day trip to the mountains. The aim of the first walk was the Szrenica peak. The whole walk consisted of several stops.Here they are.

🥉 The sunny island adventure, island of Cres, Croatia by @borjan

The following photographs were taken a week ago on the boat trip to the island of Cres. I was with some friends and relatives there. We were on the sea from the early morning till the night. It has one small town with a couple of thousands of inhabitants and about a dozen small settlements scattered around the island. We visited only Valun this time. The day was extremely hot. Probably the hottest day of this summer so far.
