Our winners today

🥇 Remnant of Dutch settlement in India (Dutch Factory ) by @hindavi

The Dutch factory in Vengurla is a fascinating site, though it currently stands as ruins and a testament to that chapter of Indian history. The building's architecture is neglected, but discussions about its restoration are ongoing, and work has begun slowly. However, it’s uncertain how long the restoration will take, given the size of the structure and its age.

🥈 Parque de Santo António - Vila Nova Foz Côa / Riding Portugal by @onyfest

After a generous lunch in the center of Foz Côa, we needed a quiet place to slow down and let the food settle before continuing to explore the city. That's how we ended up in Santo António Park, a pleasant green space that turned out to be exactly what we were looking for at that moment, and which happened to be right around the corner in a very central and well-positioned location.

🥉 Amongst the Grockles* in Porthia by @grindle

From May to September it is not a good time to be a local, the roads are clogged and as you will see the streets are clogged, beer bellies going bright pink in the blazing sun, tiny thoroughfares clogged by lemmings walking aimlessly from point to point without a plan, its like an episode of The Walking Dead.
