🥇 Kaş Marina- ( EN-TR) by @passenger777
This port, where ships are moored, is located in the Kaş district of Antalya. I can say that this port is one of the cleanest and best-equipped ports you will find in Turkey. It features environmentally friendly practices, a technical infrastructure system, and a marina with a capacity of approximately 500 yachts, including multiple floating docks and one breakwater. The marina has a large capacity and offers suitable water depth and mooring facilities for luxury super mega yachts. In Turkey, this and similar marinas are built by Setur, or Servis Turistik Anonim Şirketi. We can see Setur's emblems hanging on the marina's edges. I specifically mentioned Setur because Setur implements all its marina projects with an eco-friendly ideology that does not harm nature. In fact, this marina has received an award for the compatibility of its land structures with nature.

🥈 Miniature Statue hunt in Budapest by @hindavi
Hello, friends, travelers, and community! We spent about a week in Budapest and explored many sights without a prepared itinerary. Some of you may have seen my previous posts. As usual, we took our time to discover various attractions, and we saw many different statues around every corner, in parks, or at squares. but during our visit to the agriculture museum, we noticed a tiny statue, a miniature of Dracula. When I asked my husband about it, he explained that one of Hungary's most prominent street artists, Mihály Kolodko, has created small miniature statues that are hidden throughout the streets of Budapest. This piqued my interest, but since it was evening, we decided it would be best to go on a hunt the next day. Thus, we started our search for Kolodko's miniature statues.

🥉 Middle East Magic: Shift From Blazing Desert to Refreshing Green Oasis in Salalah, Oman by @gretelarmfeg
My husband and I had the wonderful opportunity to explore Salalah, Oman, because of the long weekend here in Dubai. This trip, we decided not to bring our own car. We booked a tour through a travel agency. My husband preferred not to drive the long distance of 12 to 15 hours from Al Ain, Abu Dhabi. We left Dubai at 5:45 pm on September 4. Setting off on our avidly awaited trip. Our tour guide’s cheerful personality raised everyone’s spirits. To break the ice and spur a sense of community. He called everyone to introduce themselves, sharing their names so we could all connect. This simple sign created a sense of connection, making the ambiance dynamic and friendly. What was supposed to be an easy trip turned into an unforeseen long adventure. Because of the holiday the roads were full of travelers and there were too few immigration officers on duty. Rather than arriving Salalah at 10 a.m. on September 5 as planned, we finally arrived at 2 p.m.. Unbending what should have been a 12 to 15 hour into a 20-hour trip.
