🥇 A Fairytale City - Rouen by Hive account@lett

Rouen is a charming city located in northwestern France on the banks of the Seine River and about 120 kilometers from Paris. It is possible to reach the city from Paris by train or bus in around one and a half hours. I chose the bus because it was more economical and my round trip ticket cost only 13 euros. Train tickets were around 20 euros.

🥈 My Visit to Guadalest, Spain by Hive account@larissalugo

The origins of this village go back to a castle built by the Moors in the tenth century. Later during the Reconquista, the castle came under Christian control. It was at that time that it received its current name, San José, meaning the Castle of Saint Joseph. The history of Guadalest is also closely connected to a very noble family, the Arduña family. They migrated here from the Basque Country and became known as loyal nobles who supported the local administration. The entrance to the castle is accessed directly through the house of the Arduña family. Inside this house, elements of the family’s daily life, historical objects and works of art have been preserved.

🥉 Selge Ancient City and Adamkayalar / Selge Antik Kent ve Adamkayala EN-TR ) by Hive account@passenger777

Carrying our wanderlust within us, we organize trips around the Mediterranean and its surroundings, embracing the peace that comes with exploring, seeing, and traveling. This week, we set off with a group of nature-loving friends toward the Pisidia region of the Mediterranean, undeterred by the fierce winds. We climbed to the ancient city of Selge, located high above sea level on the southern slopes of the famous Taurus Mountains of the Mediterranean, and from there to the rocks known as Adamkayalar, often compared to Cappadocia in Antalya.
