Our winners today 🍍

🥇 🥦Mizuo's Travel Blog🥦No.50 - Campeche, Mexico 🇲🇽 - Nov. 2023 by @mizuosemla

By chance, I happened to be in Mexico during the famous Mexican holiday of "Day of the Dead," and a friend and his wife took me to see a Day of the Dead event in the city of Campeche. The Day of the Dead is called "el Día de Muertos or el Día de los Muertos" in Spanish, and "is intended to remember and appreciate the dead and share the joy of life, especially in Mexico. This tradition is one of the most important customs in Mexico and is celebrated every year on November 1 and 2. This day is considered a particularly important holiday in Mexico, and the whole country is enveloped in a festive atmosphere.

🥈 Phra Nakhon Khiri Hill Palace in Thailand by @hadrianwild

For most visitors there is one famous sight to visit in the town of Petchaburi at the northern end of the Thai peninsular. It's called Phra Nakhon Khiri and is visible long before you reach the town. However, locally it's called Khao Wang, which means "Palace Hill". It's a complex of royal and religious buildings perched on a limestone hill within the town. It is well looked after as a Historic Park and is a lovely place to explore for half a day. There are three main parts to the site set on three peaks: a museum, a chedi and a temple, all connected by attractive brick paths wandering around the well-kept rocky hill, which is rich in both flowers and trees.

🥉 Back on track, Back in Trail at Mount Licos - Danao City, Cebu by @hanyabee

Time had passed. Things had changed. I could still remember the days when I was still young and free, My friends and I would always climb and trek the mountain near us every summer. Now that we grow and continue to our different paths, we barely see and talk to each other. Everything was abrupt and rushed. I just knew that my sister's buddies canceled right before that morning. She was left with no choice but to take me. I was initially hesitant because of my business and upcoming speakership for the seminar (which I will also share here in my future blogs, HEHE). To cut the story short, I found myself packing my climbing essentials and headed to her house.
