Round-Trip: 70 miles, 16 days

When to Go: Pre-monsoon (March or April) gives you the rhododendrons in bloom and lots of climber action, but post-monsoon (November) gives you drier weather. Go with guide services that use local Sherpa guides, cooks, and porters—it’s part of the experience.

The Trekking, the Cafes, The Views, Para Gliding!!! loveeee

Another beauty.

This is an absolute must see in Turkey and interesting fact, there is a heavy chain at the entrance on the west side for the ruler of the mosque who was the only one allowed to enter. It is a symbol of humbleness for a ruler in the face of the Divine.

a lot of religious history....not spoken resides!!

This amazing shopping complex has been around for 550 years! I wonder if it has that one store that always keeps going out of business...

So Beautiful and elemental!

tewstewse

I actually booked a trip here last August and had to cancel it for work (wait, what!?) so this is right at the top of my wish list for the next stamp in my passport. And it makes me wonder, do I get two stamps in my passport since half of Istanbul is in Asia and the other half Europe???

love it

Arguably it is more beautiful from a distance lit up at night than it is in person - call me a philistine if you will, but from a rooftop bar with a Mythos in hand I found it more impressive!

Love this place.

Quaint

Fascinating

Tel Aviv is a spice playground for cooks and at a cultural intersection to draws heavily from the diverse population. The Levinsky Market is a must stop on the shopping list.

Going to Israel is biggest dream trip!

I got copperhead salmon which they

one week trip, but good enough to plan to return.

Best eats at the market!

This has gotten a lot of flack over the years but I'm kind of into it. Also kind of cool that this museum combines music and science fiction. And what other museum hosts exhibits about both Bing Crosby and Queensryche.

I want to go there this time. I only passed by it last time.

I am so very sad I missed the Battlestar Galactica exhibit. :(
