Our winners today


🥇 The Mekong Delta, an excursion from Saigon that you can't miss [Eng-Esp] by @belug

Vietnam is a transformative journey in every sense, but if there's one place I have to highlight above all others, it's the Mekong Delta, known as such by Westerners, although for locals it's the River of Nine Dragons. I visited Phoenix Island, Unicorn Island, and Dragon Island, took a boat ride along the different branches of the river, and tried sweet coconut, coconut candy, Mekong honey, and several other things.

🥈 [ESP-ING] Visiting La Ballesta and Plaza Bolívar in Colonia Tovar by @yolimarag

The Tovar neighbourhood has so many tourist attractions. I haven't visited them all yet, but here's my visit to La Ballesta, a tourist centre with lots of attractions for families, couples and even solo travellers. La Ballesta is close to my little goat, on the same road to my little goat, However, it is not very visible, although they have now built an entrance where you can see the place towards the crossroads, and there are a few small car parks at the top if you go by car.

🥉 Don't go to La Recoleta, go to this Cemetery instead [ENG|ESP] by @cristiancaicedo

The Recoleta Cemetery is one of the most visited places by tourists exploring the Argentine capital for the first time. It's true that the remains of heroes of independence and other notable figures like Evita rest there, but in my opinion, Recoleta is overrated. It's very small, there's nowhere to sit, it has almost no vegetation, and the entrance fee is very expensive, not to mention that many people book a tour, which is even more expensive. Today, I want to recommend a similar, perhaps even better, experience at a much more affordable price.
