🥇 A Magical Journey through the Episcopal Palace Garden - Castelo Branco by @onyfest

As I promised you, I'll bring you a little more about the beautiful city of Beirã, Castelo Branco! Before taking you to the new places, I'll talk a little about the city's culture, particularly embroidery. My maternal grandmother was an embroiderer, so whenever I see these works on quilts or sheets I stop to appreciate them because they are always done with great pleasure.

🥈 Driving In The Pinnacle Desert : A Unique Landscape In Western Australia by @leoumesh

One of the Australia's fascinating structure is the Pinnacle Desert, situated at around 188 km to the north of the Perth. It will take around 2 hours drive to reach there. The desert is located inside Nambung National Park. The standing limestones of varying shapes and sizes are the unique attraction of this place. These limestone pillars are result of reaction of calcium that came from broken seashells and corals with the elements of the land during that period. They exhibit a range of colors, including white, yellow, orange, and red. Living in Western Australia for more than a year, I felt like I came to a completely bizzare place when I visited there. It felt like I was walking on the Mars. The sand dunes of this place closely resembles to that of the surface of Mars.

🥉 Come and join me on this hike through Les Gets, southbound Route des Perrières [Eng - Esp] by @belug

Although there is a route to follow and the trail is fairly straightforward, there are several curves that go off the main street. So, in my first weeks here, I was always afraid of losing my way as I was getting farther away from the place where I am living, so I would go back, or take multiple photos for reference. Of signs or houses, so I would know which way to go back.
