Hi @Vaseem
Welcome back to Connect.
Kindly keep in mind that Connect is a community of Local Guides. Just dropping here an “Instagram type” photo is quite useless here. We are a worldwide community of contributors of Google Maps, so please help us to better understand your post by making it relevant and "on topic.
A few tips for you:
Write your topic — and make it relevant. If you’re telling a story, think about what value it can bring others. If you have a question, be as descriptive as possible.
Upload photos and videos. Make your topic more interesting with great visuals! The first photo you add to your topic will appear as the main image across the site. So, make sure it’s relevant to your title. Don’t forget to add short descriptions to your photos to make your content more accessible and help others understand what you’re sharing. Also, be sure to only share photos you’ve taken yourself or have permission to use. If your photo contains other people, be sure they’re cool with it, too.
Share Google Maps links. Sharing a photo of a beautiful waterfall or talking about a specific restaurant? Add a link to the location of the place and your contribution on Google Maps.
Include a caption and credit
As you add a photo to your post, add a simple descriptive caption to explain what can be seen in the photo as well as photo credit. The descriptive caption will help our readers using assistive technology experience the photos you share.
In addition, as your post doesn’t fit in Google Maps tips & tricks - Local Guides Connect , I want to let you know that I changed your category to Google Maps contribution stories - Local Guides Connect
