🥇 Patagonia’s Frozen Titan: Perito Moreno [🇬🇧 - 🇫🇷 - 🇪🇸] by Hive account@terresco

During our motorcycle road trip in South America, after tackling the famous “73 malditos,” known among bikers for their difficulty under certain weather conditions, we arrived at the Perito Moreno Glacier. Located in Argentine Patagonia, this glacier is one of those places where, despite the heavy tourist presence, you simply have to stop. It is among the most spectacular and famous glaciers in the world. Its surroundings are perfectly arranged to offer breathtaking views. It belongs to the “Los Glaciares” National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

🥈 A Summer Walk Through Strasbourg’s Timeless Beauty by Hive account@lett

Hello friends. Today I want to tell you about a long walk I took in Strasbourg. I will share with you how this beautiful city looks in the summer. During my walk I visited the city’s most important landmarks. The first place we came across was the Covered bridges, built in the thirteenth century. But then the question arises, where are the covered bridges? Because what we see is simply a stone bridge. In fact in the beginning, they really did have wooden roofs on top. There were five towers, but only four of them have survived to this day. Over time the city’s defense technologies changed. The bridges lost their strategic importance and the towers took on the main defensive function. At first the towers did not even have roofs. They were just watchtowers. Later the wooden roofs on the bridges were removed and replaced with stone structures. That is why they look the way they do today. This place lost its defensive role and became more of a historical monument.

🥉 Saas Fee: Day 5 by Hive account@azircon

Saas Fee was not a place I knew about in detail before coming here. In fact in terms of names, outside the big cities of Switzerland, I am quite familiar with Interlaken, Grindelwald, Zermatt, etc .. these are big names. However, I was not familiar with Saas-Fee. Well I am pleasantly surprised. I can come back here over and over, although it is a very cloudy day.
