Every Friday, Googlers round up some of their favorite posts that they came across during the week to celebrate the amazing discoveries Local Guides like you are sharing on Connect. This week, we focused on great posts we read in the Travel section.
@DeniGu : My pick for this week is @KinWanGoGo ’s “Attractions in BHUTAN…Part-4 : Hike to Khamsum Yulley Namgyal Chorten.” Get ready to go on a colorful (and powerful) journey to a unique Buddhist stupa in the great outdoors of Bhutan. This story fascinated me with its amazing photos of Bhutan’s lush greenery, terraced rice fields, and bright blue skies. @KinWanGoGo crosses rivers and suspended bridges to take us to a hidden gem—Khamsum Yulley Namgyal Chorten. If you’re like me, and exploring culture amidst nature is your idea of quality time, then this post is for you. Oh, and did I mention? From Khamsum Yulley Namgyal Chorten you can head straight to three other interesting locations in Bhutan. Just make sure to follow the link-trails inside the post!
@NadyaPN : Travelling is not always about visiting famous buildings or making your way in bustling squares. In @FaridTDF 's “Traveling as a Local - Parque el Rey - Salta,” I found a piece of tranquility which I want to share with you this week. His detailed narrative takes you off the busy highway and into a peaceful Argentinian national park. Take a stroll among the many birds and other animals, but don’t stay too late, unless you’ve brought your camping gear!
@GeorgesHR : If you don’t know about the beauty of theOrlické Mountains (also called “Eagle Mountains”) yet, you’re in for a treat. @mqwadrat shows them to us in his post, “The Orlickie Mountains, forgotten place in the centre of Europe.” In addition to his great photos of the mountain range, @mqwadrat also shares information on how to get there from the Poland side and describes how peaceful it can be when you do.
@MashaPS : This week, the Connect post I enjoyed reading the most was @StefaniaJustMe ’s “Umbria, a cavallo sui Monti Sibillini.” @StefaniaJustMe not only trekked the beautiful region of Umbria, but she also did it on a horse! Her post features a vivid description of the area, amazing photos of Sibillini mountain, and really useful tips for those curious enough to follow her on this adventure. She also shared details about her meals. I can definitely imagine how wonderful the salami, cheese, and coffee was to enjoy among the slopes in the fresh air.
