Our winners today
🥇 Walking to the Edge of Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe by @dtam
The romance of Africa's past could be felt all around us, as our porter in a fine white uniform, greeted us and escorted us inside of the Victoria Falls Hotel. The hotel is pure old world grandeur. Various members of royalty have visited over the years, and the class of personal service here maintains even today. The hotel is a living piece of history, built in the early 1900's as a home for travelers on the Cape to Cairo Railway line. The path that leads through Victoria Falls National Park starts just a short distance from the hotel. After paying the $50 entry fee, we followed our ears to the low rumble, that grew louder with each step. Our surroundings started to get lusher and greener, with mist falling from the sky like some 24/7 rain. We sped past a large group of slower Road Scholars, and under the statue of David Livinstone, I presume, and down 38 steps to our first view of the famous Victoria Falls.

🥈 Alacasu-Cennet Bay-Secret Cave Route - Alacasu-Cennet Koyu-Gizli Mağara Rotası ( EN-TR) by @passenger777
A group of nature lovers and I organized a trip to the beautiful places where we could witness the beautiful colors of autumn and the fragrance of the herbs and plants. We set out together to explore one of the most beautiful routes on the Mediterranean coast, Alacasu-Paradise Bay, and its hidden caves.

🥉 Havelis in Churu - A Guide. When You Choose a Non-Standard Destination and It Truly Pays Off by @x-rain
When I was thinking of choosing Churu as my first destination after Delhi, I was completely unsure about whether it was worth going there at all. Let's start with accommodation: on Booking.com, there's only one property, and it's $100 per night...This means there isn't a significant flow of foreigners to Churu, and if that's the case, maybe the city isn't that interesting? That's how I was thinking... Pictures on Google - well, yes, I saw some mansions with frescoes, but it was completely unclear whether they stand amid average Indian chaos or if there is a cozy old town and so on.
