This year, again, as in 2017, I had the chance to visit one of the most picturesque European countries and my former home – Portugal. Most of the pictures I wanted to share with you from these two trips I did already; you will find them here, here, or here. However, I did not share them all. There are some shots I haven’t yet put on the website. I combined them into the series below titled “Details of Portugal.”
This is the second two-part series about the Sniper Tower in Mostar, Bosnia and Hercegovina. You’ll find the first series with basic information right here.
Getting into the Sniper Tower might be tricky, but it’s worth it. From the main square, turn to the left ally and follow it to the end of the building, then go around the corner; right here, some stone blocks should enable you to cross the wall and enter the eerie site. I highly recommend doing it in daylight, first of all, because you can enjoy the beautiful views on the upper floors, secondly and most importantly it’s supposed to be a hotspot for druggies at night. Obviously, there is no police here to take care of you. So be cautious and watch your steps. The place is incredibly well-known for its graffiti art; some pieces can be seen below.
Györ is a Hungarian city with a population of 130.000 inhabitants in the west of the country. Most of the architecture dates back to the Habsburg times and reflects the trendy style of Baroque in the region (mainly in the 18th century).
