🥇 A Visit to History : Hoa Lu Temples in Ninh Binh Vietnam | IndoChina Travel Blog Series | Vietnam by @thestrollingmind

Hoa Lu in Ninh Binh province is the ancient city of Dai Co Viet (the old name of Vietnam). The Hoa Lu temples speak a lot about the culture and history of Ninh Binh which became the resting place of the late kings, unfortunately, the other temples of the previous kings were destroyed by the war and only two temples remained which are for King Dinh (King Dinh Tien Hoang) of the Dinh Dynasty and Kind Le (King Le Dai Hanh), who also fought for their freedom from the wars and colonizers 1000 years ago. Moreover, Hoa Lu temple is also the old citadel of Northern Vietnam.

Kruja is town in North central Albania. It is located between mountain Kruja (Krujë) and Ishëm river. It is only 20 kilometers from Tirana. Krujë castle and Skanderbeg Museum have very nice views and Mountain Krujë is behind them.

🥉 Trliste Gezi Yarışması | Galata Kulesi. (TR-EN) Galata Kulesi. by @mehmetfix

Galata tower is a wonderful historical monument that has still been standing for hundreds of years and has been almost never damaged. The only problem is the poor restoration. You will see some of these in the photos.
