Every Friday, Google Moderators highlight the best posts they found to celebrate the amazing discoveries Local Guides like you are sharing on Connect. These are posts detailing past experiences that we hope will serve as entertainment and inspiration for your future bucket list. This week, a night dive in the sea, a nature getaway, and more.
@LilyanaZ : Once again, @indahnuria takes us to the magical underwater world in her post “The Beauty of Deep, Dark Sea - the Night Dive Experience in Lampung, Indonesia.” It’s a great one for diving enthusiasts and nature lovers who wish to explore the sea at night, whether virtually or in real life. In it, you will find helpful tips, personal experiences shared, and of course — Indah’s gorgeous photos, revealing mystical beauty. There is also an amazing video of her night dive, and you can find more details about the place in her review. If this sounds interesting to you, make sure to check out Indah’s post.
@Bobiisha : The post that caught my eye this week was “Weekday escape to Gabai River waterfalls in Malaysia” by @StephenAbraham . What drew me in was the stunning nature photography. As someone who loves nature, I couldn’t miss the chance to take a virtual walk with Stephen along the paths around the Gabai River and its waterfalls. The post also includes useful details about the place and how to reach it, the health protocols it follows, and more. If you’re looking for a safe getaway spot around Kuala Lumpur or just a nice place for your bucket list, Stephen’s post is for you!
@InaS : My pick for this week is @Hansen_Yang ’s post “The Tropical Rainforest Greenhouse of the Botanical Garden in Taichung, Taiwan.” In it, through beautiful photos and an engaging narrative, we get to explore the life of the rainforest: from the colorful poison dart frogs to the rare and endangered sea coconut plant. The Local Guide shows us many different sections inside the facility, including a waterfall and an aquarium. Have you ever been to a tropical rainforest greenhouse? Then join the conversation under @Hansen_Yang 's post.
