🥇 My Aegean Tour - Part 1: Ephesus Ancient City, Selçuk, İzmir [ENG-TUR] by @videoaddiction

From the beginning of the pandemic until 2023, I had taken domestic vacations towards end of the summer season due to the pandemic and economic crisis. I don't like the vacation format that goes between hotel, sea and foods anyway. I want to explore new places as much as possible. Last year, I realized the Aegean tour that I had planned long before. I could not travel all over the Aegean, but in this travel post series, I write about the places I could visit in detail in the Aegean. The first of those is Ephesus Ancient City, which is located in Selçuk district of İzmir province.

🥈 Tuong Dai Bac Ho and The Stunning City Hall in Downtown Ho Chi Minh City by @aswita

So, as a consideration this time, I went to Ho Chi Minh City, one of which is closer than to the island of Bali or a city which is famous as a tourist city in Indonesia, and besides, the price of plane tickets is much cheaper than within the country. FYI, I also wonder why plane tickets in Indonesia are so expensive compared to other countries, so many travelers are lazy about vacationing in Indonesia. Honestly, Indonesia has many interesting places, but when you open the application to book plane tickets, you will really hate the prices which are sometimes unreasonable.

🥉 Winter morning in the mountains (18pics) by @apnigrich

I want to tell about a small hotel among the mountains, where we spent 2 nights, and in the afternoon we went to interesting places, mostly gorges and waterfalls. You need to understand the peculiarity of visiting these places in winter. We arrived at the hotel in complete darkness and did not understand at all where we were and what was around us. In the morning I went out on the terrace and saw a mountain in front of me. It turned out that I was not alone when I went out into the fresh air and a girl was already standing on the terrace. She asked me: "Do you see goats on the mountain?" I even envied her excellent eyesight. I could only see the goats through the scope of the camera.
