sight seeing around hyrule ;)
Gutenberg Castle and church in Balzers, Liechtenstein.
Day 70: in Prague, the buildings are pretty
There are surprisingly not many cars or people.
Most places are rather cozy, some are expensive (900 Czech crowns for a small Tiramisu cake) but most are affordable.
There are some cool things to see here as well
Sightseeing in San Simeon
Soco Falls, Part One
A double waterfall located on the Cherokee Nation near the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina.

Cape Sunion is the farthest point of mainland Greece. In ancient times it was considered a sacred place; from its steep cliffs the mythical king of Athens, Theseus, thinking that his son Theseus had been killed in battle with the Minotaur after seeing the black sails on his ship, threw himself into the sea (hence the name Aegean), on the walls of the ruins of the ancient temple of Poseidon, which rises on the cliffs from where you can enjoy spectacular views of the Aegean Sea and where Lord Byron engraved his name.
Przylądek Sunion jest najdalej wysuniętym punktem Grecji kontynentalnej. W czasach starożytnych był uważany za święte miejsce, z jego stromych klifów mityczny król Aten Egeusz, myśląc, że jego syn Tezeusz zginął w walce z Minotaurem po tym, jak zobaczył czarne żagle na jego statku, rzucił się do morza (stąd nazwa Morza Egejskiego), na ścianach ruin starożytnej świątyni Posejdona, która wznosi się na klifach, skąd można podziwiać spektakularne widoki na Morze Egejskie i gdzie Lord Byron wyrył swoje imię.
Random moments 1) beach at Cascais 2) Seeing the show of Under the Stars at Carmo convent in Lisbon that goes through all phases founded at the end 14th century damaged badly in 18th century and being a touristic spot of today.
One of the Unesco World Heritage Site Quinta da Regaleira in Sintra with a romantic palace and small church + a big garden filled with wells, fountains, lakes etc. Gotta make a second visit just for the garden when there are less tourists!
National Pantheon in Lisbon aka Church of Santa Engrácia started in 17th century but not completed until in 1966. This is the last resting place to many famous portuguese characters for example the Presidents of Portugal and portuguese royal family. Not free but worth a visit and there’s a cool viewing point upstairs.
+ On my way there found this cutest portuguese house with all the plants, laundry details!
The modest looking palace of Bélem used to be one of residents for Portuguese royal and today the official residence of the President of Portugal. Interesting, glamorous inside, quite small and nice details but wouldn’t go again though.
Pics from magical Sintra!
Probably the most iconic sights of #Helsinki, the #RockChurch and #SibeliusMonument
