Sightseeing - Tumblr Posts
Hello all together, If you ever come to Thuringia (Germany) please visit the Kiefhäuser, especially the Brabarossa Monument. The hiking trails around the monument are very nice and the entrance fee is not overly expensive. I had a lot of fun with my father to explore the monument.
I hope you had a nice week, hopefully I'll manage to post something regularly sometime.

Post from my holiday in Cornwall last week! We went for a lovely walk in St.Ives, and it was amazing! Chatted a bit with an amazing wildlife painter, and had good food! #cornwall #stives #stivescornwall #art #photography #landscape #coast #beach #sun #summer #sightseeing #travel #traveling #photooftheday #landscapephotography #artist #photographer
Gutenberg Castle and church in Balzers, Liechtenstein.
Last day before starting college again. The afternoon's sky enamoured everyone, and it was even better while enjoying the company of some friends.
If you ever get a chance to visit Madrid, I encourage you to get lost in El Retiro's gardens. Its skies seem to be taken straight out of a painting, and wandering throught their gardens trully makes you forget you are in the city.

Flatiron Building 🗽 My first trip to New York City was one I'll never forget. As I walked through the famous streets and took photos with the Flatiron Building, I couldn’t help but think about all the history and culture the city has seen. It feels like the past is still alive.

Zamość!❤️
This year I decided to celebrate my birthday in the city that I find to be a small gem of Lubelszczyzna and former Galicja - Zamość!
Z dala od głównych traktów, gdzieś na mapy skraju, Na południowo-wschodnich rubieżach Polskości Stoi senna zjawa jak widok prosto z raju, Owoc hetmańskiej wiedzy i mądrości.
"Gdzieś na mapy skraju", Niezwykle Miejsca, M.Grechuta
I cannot recommend visiting this city enough. I'm not talking only about tourists from abroad, but also about Polish people - I promise you, you won't regret such a trip, even though it's actually quite close to the Eastern border. I've been to plenty of Polish cities, but somehow I've never felt Polish history being so carefully cherished.
Thankfully, unlike many other polish cities, Zamość wasn't damaged too much during the WWII, but it doesn't mean it didn't overcome plenty of attacks and hardships at the time. I can't imagine how beautiful and big this city might have been before the war...
The city is well-taken care of and isn't sick with the modern approach to building multitude of modern blocks and skyscrapers in the places clearly not fitting for that (like many other polish cities do). The old town allows for almost utter immersion into the past and that's what I enjoyed the most about the place.
When walking there, I actually took shamefully few photos:D The reason is the breathtaking beauty of the city's architecture and landscape - you can't help but look around, slack-jawed and amazed. There is no time to think about the phone in your hand, you just walk around and enjoy the atmosphere and the views.
You can see multitude of brilliant examples of architecture in the city - the Bastion and churches from 17th century, 16th century Zamoyski Academy still functioning as a middle school and early 20th century school building of the same function. Honestly, photos on the internet are not able to depict the varying sublimity of this city, you have to visit and see all of these buildings and monuments with your own eyes.
I have to admit I'm severely obsessed with the numerous old doors and doorframes in the city, each of which is a work of art on their own<3
Additionally, it's perfect for visiting in springtime, as not only can you enjoy the beauty of Zamość's architecture, you can also admire the natural landscape - there's a beautiful park in the city and you can find a beautiful lake there next to another historical place which I shall refer to in the following post, as it's so interesting and undoubtedly important for preservation of polish history that it totally requires a separate post.
It was a privilege to love you, and it was a privilege to let you go. Both helped shape me into the person I have become. Beau Taplin
more vienna sightseeing, though formidably cut short by ways of having to keep my eyes on my behemoth of a bike....
