Our winners today 🍍

🥇 Love Rice Balls? There's An Onigiri Shrine In Tokyo! by @wittyzell

Located in Sumida City, Tokyo, this average-sized purple-colored shrine is called Takagi Shrine. It's a shrine with lots of rice balls. But actually, the shrine is not the place where you will be granted more rice balls. It comes from a wordplay of the deity's name, Takami Musubi No Kami, the deity of creation and relationships. Rice ball in Japanese is often called onigiri or omusubi.

🥈 Teruel and its Mudéjar architecture by @mipiano

The third day of our little trip which started on January 2 this year took us to Teruel, located between Zaragoza and Valencia, Spain. We were already going back toward the Mediterranean when we stopped to look around this old city rich in Mudéjar Architecture and have lunch. Well, the lunch was optional as we were not so hungry but in the end, one sunny terrasse in the main square called us to take a seat and order something.

🥉 Meditation on rocks, Capo Greco, Cyprus by @duskobgd

A busy year, a lot of obligations and a big rush at work - are reason enough to plan a short spring break. We only had one wish. To find a destination near the sea, where it is warm and has a point where we can indulge in mediation. The choice fell on Cyprus and the Cape Greco National Park near Aiya Napa.The fact that this location is located in the immediate vicinity of a large tourist place meant that a large crowd of tourists could be expected, and that's why I decided to visit Cape Greco by car, and not by tourist yachts and ships that do mass tourism.
