replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @RTWBarefoot A2 #trlt how am I supposed to know that? Maybe the bee hive tombs in Al Ain, Oman?
A2. Least visited UNESCO site I've had the privilege of visiting? Probably Palau and the protected Rock Islands. The maze of 'islands' is a dream world. #Palau #TRLT

@TheTravelCamel A3. Shirakawago houses were built with the wind patterns in mind, so the gassho-zukuri houses (which were built with no nails) would just sway with the wind and not get knocked over. 🗺:Â

A3: The most interesting fact we have learnt was at #Kazakhstan's UNESCO site Mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi in Turkestan. We learnt that it is the prototype of the Timurid architecture which you can find very often in #Uzbekistan! via @ramblrramblr #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @ramblRramblR A3: Umm. As a people, we are very destructive and we don't seem to learn from our mistakes, so we are destined to re-create them over and over. #TRLT The Library in Ephesus in Turkey. @visitTurkeyNow
New Brunswick was a great stop to explore in Canada this year .... https://t.co/J97ViYYqt3 with so many great sights to discover. #TTOT #TRLT
replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @ramblRramblR A3) Perhaps the most interesting fact I've learned about a UNESCO World Heritage Site was at Chaco Culture National Historical Park was that they couldn't explain it since there's no written history of what went on there. #TRLT
A3. At the Pinacate Biosphere near Puerto Penasco, I found a collapsed lava bubble where the Apollo 14 astronauts trained. It was the closest terrain to the moon. #TRLT #pinacatebiosphere
