🥇 Exploring the hunting grounds of nomadic hunters ‘rakshas’ above Solang village. by @parvkhuller

‘Rakshas’ were one of the nomad tribes that populated the beautiful valley of Beas river. I got to know about these stories from an old guy while I was in Solang village and my plan was to explore their lands which provided for them in the olden times. So I started my trek towards the nomadic lands of the Rakshas with my brother and my father.

🥈 Around Northern Greece no. 4 – Mount Olympus by @olusiu

In order for our stay in Greece not to be too lazy and not based solely on driving from one beach to another, we decided to leave the coast for at least once and head inland to see up close what the mountains in Greece look like. If the idea of going to the mountains came up, there could only be one goal, namely Mount Olympus. Olympus is a vast mountain range consisting of several smaller peaks, of which Mitikas, 2917 meters above sea level, is the highest peak in all of Greece. The mountain literally grows out of the sea, so the view from the top and the view from the foot of the mountain range are spectacular. Its monumentality made it the seat of the Greek gods in ancient Greek mythology, including the most important of them, Zeus.

🥉 Solo Journey to Batu Caves - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia by @viviehardika

When I first entered the Batu Caves entrance from the train station exit, I was immediately greeted by a large statue of Lord Hanuman. Next to the statue of Lord Hanuman is the Sri Subramaniar Swamy Temple whose stairs have two colors, namely pink and blue. I was amazed to see the combination of colors. I did not dare to enter it because this is a place of worship for another religion, and I was a bit reluctant to enter it.
