Do you ever use the same time for your walks?
I have had much japanese. The first times I was really exciting ‘wow japan’. Now it’s more ‘uf japan’
But I’m interested in all this postcards, like a small holiday trip
Just random times.
It is good to get a nice Wayspot from Mateo. Although to be fair I’m not selective in what I send back
I only keep interesting, unusual Wayspot gifts for certain locals because I know they’ll like it and for Wayfarer geeks as I know they’ll like it/find it amusing that it was added.
I hope it’s not too late to add to this but this is definitely my new favourite wayspot that I submitted.
I wanted to add more to the description but i was at the max
What a great project
So hard to choose a favourite. Some are beautiful in their own ways. Some i like because of the photo, some of the candidate, some of the story behind getting to submit it etc.
Overall, this gotta be it since it is probably the most famous thing in Stavanger, Norway
Just look up “Stavanger” on Google and see how many times you see this street in Photos
Ne ho fatti molti di storici ma quello a mio parere più importane è questo affresco/dipinto del 1400
This isn’t one of mine, but I thought it was such an intriguing and well-done wayspot that I’d wait until it was accepted and then share it. You can find this on Google Maps at https://maps.app.goo.gl/wbYKtpAD5mUSQUPPA
Ben Alder Cottage Mountain Bothy
Built in 1871 on the site of a previous dwelling, Ben Alder Cottage was inhabited by deer foresters and gamekeepers until 1918 when it was abandoned, largely due to its remote location on the shores of Loch Ericht. It was first renovated in 1969 for use as a mountain bothy, and is free to be used by walkers and mountaineers. The bothy is also known for its ghosts; a ghillie who hung himself from the front door, and a woman who killed and ate her child in the cottage while sheltering from a storm.
Street Address: QGHR+JC Dalwhinnie, UK
Bothies are most common in the Scottish highlands, and are usually remote simple structures such as converted steadings without any conveniences like plumbing, electricity or furniture. They can be best thought of as wild camping without a tent, are maintained by volunteers, and are free to use. Always unlocked to used by anyone. This bothy is a landmark for walkers and mountain bikers and the bothy itself is a structure of great historic and cultural value.
Oh nice Ben Alder and area is lovely
It definitely makes me want to seek it out, the Highlands Ingress game is not for the faint of heart though.
The person submitting did a nice job
Oh don’t I remember you having trouble getting this one accepted? Great photo, whether I am misremembering or not!
I was asking how to take the photo for the pub before nominating it because there wasn’t any proper signage, but luckily it got accepted first time
Just had this Mural accepted that was recently added in my area and I instantly loved the artwork and details.
There has been a settlement on Näs manor since the Middle Ages, but it is Näs gatehouse (the photo) that is the oldest preserved building on the estate and is from the 17th century. The gatehouse was probably designed by the well-known architect Erik Dahlberg.
Gatehouses were widespread during the 17th and 18th centuries, but there are only two preserved in Sweden, of which this is one.
The stone-paved road was when the gatehouse was in use the road between Jönköping and Gothenburg (the second largest city in Sweden)
Näs manor and its gatehouse are today very popular and booked for weddings.
Hah… tried to submit that exact pub and got rejected. There was nothing in the village when I went there. Actually, checking now there’s only the Church in Ingress and I submitted that myself.
That village is now filled with trails and noticeboards that i submitted. Typical
