Our winners today 🍍

🥇 Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes by @edprivat

"On the way back to the light, I feel that this is probably where most of the meditating happen. Walking slowly through this corridor, it almost feels like the weight of the world on the shoulders lighten up after each steps...This, or I am just happy to feel fresh air again, I can't breath with the mask."

🥈 A stroll through downtown Buenos Aires (CABA) [ENG] / Un paseo por el centro de la ciudad de Buenos Aires (CABA) [ESP]. by @hubeyma

"The Retiro Bus Terminal was conceived as a solution to the traffic problems that the city suffered as a result of the lack of a single terminal from which all long-distance service companies could depart. It is the largest in the country only behind the Córdoba Terminal."

🥉 The Relics of Slavery by @gentleshaid

"Just a few meters away from the slave port lies the slave relic museum. This mini-museum is a monument belonging to one of the famous slave traders in those days. His name is Seriki Abass and he specialized in capturing his fellow Nigerians and selling them to the European traders. He operated a slave cell consisting of few rooms and was purported to have kept nothing less than 40 slaves in each room."
