🥇 Most Amazing Temple , Wat Ban Rai, Thailand by @tinman88

My weekend was spend traveling from Pattaya city to Nakhon Ratchasima province also known as Korat city, it is a four and a half-hour drive a distance of 380km from Pattaya city following Route 7 and Route 2 Highways the reason for our journey to Korat city was for business and a look around on our way to Korat city, I when on to google to search what were the most popular places to see in Korat city, because we were going to be spending 3 days and 2 nights in Korat city and what lit up my face was this Wat Ban Rai Temple also known as the Elephant Temple, I thought this is a must. Korat City (Nakhon Ratchasima Province) is actually the sixth-largest city in Thailand in the north-east of Isaan and although being a big city there is not much tourist infrastructure but a beautiful city to see, it's mainly a port for its endless stretches of rice fields that can be seen as far as the borders of Laos and Cambodia.

🥈 "Kudykina Gora" - A natural park , Lipetsk region, Russia by @veta-less

At the end of July, I had a mini vacation in order to go to the village for a few days. My grandmother and grandfather once lived in the village and my mother was born. The village is located in the Lipetsk region (Russia) and I will make a separate post about it. In the meantime, I will show you the natural park, which we visited along the way and which is also located in the Lipetsk region. The park is called "Kudykina Gora". For a Russian-speaking person, this name is familiar from childhood from the saying - Where to? - To Kudykina Mountain, steal tomatoes ...I decided to see what this expression really means. First of all, this park is famous for the grandiose figure of the Serpent Gorynych - the main and, perhaps, the most powerful villain of Russian folk tales. The visitors are most interested in it. Moreover, on weekends at a certain time, he spews out flame and roar. It's a shame that this is done so rarely. We certainly got there at an inopportune time.

The city of Puerto Cabello is located north of the coast of the state of Carabobo - Venezuela, and is the capital of the municipality with the same name Puerto Cabello, whose name is due to the fact that its waters are so calm that even a hair can hold a boat. It is estimated that in this city there is a population that exceeds 180 thousand inhabitants, and is one of the most important port areas of Venezuela, below the port of La Guaira, Vargas state.
