A3 #TRLT Visiting Plitvice Lakes National Park I learned this was where the first casualty of the Croatian War of Independence happened. It was closed for several years which the park really needed. It had been really worn down from all the visitors.

A3: That the Ngorongoro Crater was formed after a supervolcano exploded. It's hard to imagine how big that volcano was, seeing how massive the crater is. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @junkkDNA @CharlesMcCool A1: It's always interesting to see and learn something new and unique about the world, and UNESCO sites are excellent ways to do it. Machu Picchu comes to mind. #TRLT

A3: I learned that this structure carved into Sulaiman-Too mountain in Osh, Kyrgyzstan 🇰🇬 is not actually a Bond villain lair… #trlt https://t.co/ffNNrtnTlk

A1: I like visiting any UNESCO World Heritage site, though I'm more often in cities, so I end up hitting the natural ones the least.

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @ramblRramblR A3 #trlt man, the questions are hard this time!
Maybe that the blue colour for ancient Roman togas came from Essaouira in Morocco. Although technically, the islands it came from are not in the medina, which is the UNESCO site.

A3: visiting UNESCO World Heritage Site, Fort Langley, B.C., I learned it's known as the birthplace of British Columbia, Canada. Built in 1827, as a Hudson’s Bay Company fur trading post, on the Fraser River & once part of a trade route for the British Empire.

Alfeld 🇩🇪:

Before Bauhaus, the 1911 Fagus shoe-last factory designed by Walter Gropius is a 1st leading example of modern-building construction with glass and steel. Until then, a building w/ unsupported glass corners was unimagined.

A3. I don't know if it's the most interesting or most mesmerizing, but Northern Ireland's Giant's Causeway and Causeway Coast has been a popular attraction for over 300 years (and you can see Scotland on a clear day!) #TRLT #loveireland #MyGiantAdventure
