Our winners today

🥇 Visiting The Memorial Park of the Forth World Conference of Women by @tanzil2024

I often wonder about urban planning in Beijing, and I am really surprised about their effort and achievements so far. Recently, one of their achievement in cleaning the Beijing air got recognition as they did a fantastic job of keeping the Beijing air so clean even this winter; this winter, I am experiencing the healthiest air in my 5 years living in Beijing. My country's government is asking for help from China to clean the air of Dhaka City, which is always in the top 5 among the most polluted air index in the world. However, today I am going to tell my travel story to a unique park in Huairou city, which is named 'World Women's Conference Memorial Park,' which was built on the occasion of 'The Fourth World Conference on Women, 4-15 September 1995, Beijing, China.'

🥈 My California - Jordan Hot Springs by @derekrichardson

Jordan Hot Springs lies in the Golden Trout Wilderness in the Southern Sierra Nevada Mountain range. I've actually been out to Jordan a few times before. Once on a solo trip in 2012 and then once again in 2013 with my mom at the end of a big 8 day loop all around the whole Golden Trout Wilderness area. Then in 2017 me, my buddy Ryan, and a couple of our other friends attempted an early season trip to the springs, but since the road to the regular trailhead was still closed due to snow we opted to attempt a trip from a much farther trailhead. And after a couple days of hiking we got close, but the early season runoff from all the melting snow had all the creeks and rivers raging and the final crossing of 9 Mile creek was uncrossable and prevented us from making it all the way. So when Ryan hit me up recently about trying to get in a trip before the winter hit, and he threw out Jordan as one of the potential options, I knew we had to go back for redemption! And also just because I knew Ryan was gonna love it. Not only is he a big hot springs fan, but he's also really into cool old historic stuff and there is lots of that on this trip. So we headed up route 395 to Sherman Pass road and made the long drive up passed Kennedy Meadows to the Blackrock trailhead. The trailhead is probably further out into the middle of the range than almost any other trailhead I know and the road is long and winding making it take a really long time to get out there, so luckily we got a pretty early start.

🥉 Monument to the Founding Fathers of the European Union in Herastrau Park by @bluemoon

In the largest park in the capital of Romania, there is a lot to see and do. Starting from the classic stroll to relaxing on the grass, benches, terraces, and restaurants. Boat rides or a tour of the statues everywhere.
