🥇 The Arctic wonder of Jokulsarlon Ice Lagoon and Diamond Beach by @miljo76

Located off the south-east coast of Iceland, this remarkable destination features a unique combination of ice and water. The Jokulsarlon Ice Lagoon, with its floating icebergs and enchanting blueness, captivates all who visit. Just a stone's throw away is the famous diamond beach, decorated with glittering ice chunks that look like precious diamonds. The visit to the ice logon was at the top of our "must-do list" in Iceland. We’ve booked in far in advance since we really wanted to be sure not to miss it 😊.

🥈 First day in Sardinia. by @silviared945

I was fascinated by the natural beauty of this splendid island, and since I had been meaning to come here for a long time to spend some time with my cousin whom I haven't seen in a while, I decided to organize this a bit last minute, and unfortunately, it was quite heavy on my finances, especially because I noticed that prices have increased significantly in Sardinia since the last time I visited, I think about 30% more.

🥉 Few posts about Armenia no.1 – Lake Sevan by @olusiu

As Armenia has never had access to the sea, the Armenians coined a saying that their country stretches between the three seas of Amreni. The Armenians referred to three large lakes as the three seas; Lake Van, Lake Urmia and Lake Sevan. Currently, only Lake Sevan lies within the borders of the state of Armenia, but this only reinforces the message about the three Armenian seas, because it shows how large and significant a country Armenia used to be. Today, after many years of turbulent wars fought by Armenia, Lake Van is located in Turkey, and its shores are inhabited by Kurds, while the salt lake Urmia is located in the north-western part of Iran. Armenians, because they do not have access to the sea, are very fond of resting on the shores of Sevan, whose area is one sixth of the entire country. The conditions for relaxation at the lake are very good, because both the fauna and flora of Lake Sevan are unique in the world. It is worth mentioning, and being at the lake, you must taste the endemic trout swimming in these waters. To protect the natural environment around the lake, the Sevan National Park was established in 1978.
