Peru 🇵🇪, red river Pulchella Pacaymayu
Peru can rightfully be considered a storehouse of natural wonders. What it 's worth to see the famous red river in Cuzco . A raging stream of scarlet color, sweeps down the slope of the mountains. The red color of the river is a seasonal phenomenon. Its intense and unusual shade can be seen only in the season of continuous rains.
Scientists have found out that the red color acquired by the river is a consequence of the flow of mountain waters through a valley saturated with many different minerals.
It is the minerals that provide saturation of the scarlet flow. In particular, we are talking about iron oxide. This element lies in large quantities under the soil in the valleys of Cuzco.

Externally, it resembles a transparent room floating in the air. The observation deck has a rather eloquent name — "Step into the void".
This observation deck, the highest in Europe, consists of five transparent walls, floor and ceiling made of three layers of glass.

Denmark 🇩🇰, Faroe Islands, village Gjógv
The village of Gjógv is located at the northeastern end of the island of Eysturoy, in the Faroe Islands, about 63 km north of the road leading to the capital Torshavn. The name of the village comes from a 200-meter gorge that descends directly into the sea. The village was mentioned for the first time in 1584, although it apparently existed long before that. Its economy was based on fishing and the sale of dried and salted fish.
The Faroe Islands are an ideal place for experienced travelers who want to take a break from the noisy resorts and the hustle and bustle of the city. The archipelago is located in the northern part of the Atlantic Ocean, between the Scottish Islands and Iceland, and attracts even the most sophisticated travelers with its beauty. The nature here is unique and impressive at first sight: gorges, lakes, numerous waterfalls, fjords and graceful rocks create a unique atmosphere.
Turkey , Istanbul, Dolmabahce Palace
Dolmabahce Palace is Turkey's most famous palace for its luxury, with a stunning 600 m—long facade overlooking the Bosphorus. The white marble Rococo palace was built under Sultan Abdul-Majid in 1834, when the Topkapi Palace finally bored him and he wanted to change.
Dolmabahce Palace is perfectly visible from the Bosphorus. The length of the building is about 600 meters. The palace is simply huge! There are 285 rooms here. The official premises, the women's and men's half are connected under one roof. It took about 14 tons of gold to decorate the palace.
Its appearance has nothing to do with the culture of the Ottomans, it is designed in Rococo and Baroque style. The palace served as the residence of six sultans, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk lived and died here.

Pompeii is a city frozen in time. It was destroyed by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79. The eruption had been going on for two days when, due to a sudden change in the wind, a giant cloud of burning ash fell on the city, and it happened completely unexpectedly - most of the residents were caught off guard.
By an evil irony of fate, it was a terrible cataclysm that allowed us to see ancient life so clearly. Volcanic ash and stones that covered the city with a layer of several meters after the eruption allowed the ancient buildings to survive to this day. Even the flowers in the garden left clear prints in the ashes, as well as water droplets from the cooling system in the atrium. In some rooms, it was possible to find amazing, almost intact frescoes.
Turkey 🇹🇷
Gocek is a small town in the southwest of Turkey in the province of Mugla. This is a small idyllic pearl located between Fethiye and Dalaman, which is often called the Turkish Saint-Tropez.
The town seems to be created for boats and yachts, something like a Turkish Venice.
Egypt 🇪🇬, Color Canyon
The colored canyon in Egypt, unlike the pyramids, is a natural creation, whose age is 5 million years. First there was an earthquake, which gave a huge crack in the desert, then water and wind created on the walls of the canyon, what today can be called natural art.
The canyon walls are intertwined with shades from red, bright orange, white to brown and convolutions, in which you can see portraits, sunset and dawn paintings, castles, columns and statues. Some caves are similar to those that can be seen in Petra Jordan, but here no human hand was applied to their creation.
From Sharm el Sheikh, the canyon is 150 kilometers away, quite an accessible tourist attraction.
UAE 🇦🇪, Abu Dhabi
Magnificent evening view of the Sheikh Zayed Mosque
Iran🇮🇷, Shiraz, Nasir al-Mulk Mosque
One of the most visited mosques of Shiraz in Iran is Nasir al-Mulk. Foreigners are attracted here by the enchanting beauty of the interior, which is not found anywhere else in the Muslim world.
Nasir al-Mulk is often called the Pink Mosque. The fact is that in the design of the building there is a pink color. There is quite a lot of it here, and if we take into account the fact that this shade is not at all characteristic of Muslim architecture, then the Nasir al-Mulk mosque appears in the image of a completely unique structure for Iran.
No matter how beautiful the exterior of the Nasir al-Mulk mosque is, its interior decoration still leaves a much deeper impression. The main thing that the visitor pays attention to is the magnificent stained glass windows in wooden frames. They all differ from each other, and different patterns are applied to the glasses of each: floral ornaments and geometric motifs, figures as if folded in a kaleidoscope.
