Carreg Cennen Castle, Brecon Beacons National Park, Powys, Wales, UK
Carreg Cennen Castle (Welsh: Castell Carreg Cennen meaning castle (on the) rock (above the) Cennen) is a castle near the River Cennen, in the village of Trap, four miles south of Llandeilo in Carmarthenshire, Wales. The castle is within the Brecon Beacons National Park, and its location has been described as spectacular, due to its position above a limestone precipice. It has been in a ruinous state since 1462 and is now in the care of Cadw, the Welsh Government historic environment service.
The Skywalk Biokovo, good place for admiring the views :)
Skywalk Biokovo is located at the Ravna Vlaška pass, at an elevation ot 1228 metres, right next to the info-centar at the 13th kilometre ot the Biokovo road. Opened in July 2020. The glass terrace is shaped like a horseshoe and is approximately 25 meters long. Its sides are attached to the rock, and the arch protrudes 12 meters above the edge of the rocky slope. You can get there by car, bus or scoote,r by the road leading to the summit of St. Jure.
Biokovo is the second-highest mountain range in Croatia, located along the Dalmatian coast of the Adriatic Sea, between the rivers of Cetina and Neretva and it's 36 km long and 9.5 km wide. Biokovo was established in the Cretaceous period (65 million years ago), during the collision of the African tectonic plate with the European one. Its highest peak is Sveti Jure (Saint George), at 1762 m.a.s.l., the second highest peak in Croatia. It shows a typical karst landscape. From the sea side, Biokovo is characterized by very steep and bare limestone walls, beneath which lies a narrow coastal strip. In 1981, the area of 19,550 ha was protected as the Biokovo Nature Park thanks to the unique values of geomorphological forms, plant and animal species and natural beauty.

Punkt widokowy nazywany "Skywalk Biokovo". Dobre miejsce na podziwianie widoków :)
Skywalk Biokovo - szklany taras widokowy znajdujący się na przełęczy Ravna Vlaška (1228 m n.p.m.) w masywie górskim Biokovo, sąsiadującym z Riwierą Makarską, otwarty w lipcu 2020 roku. Taras ma kształt podkowy o długości około 25 metrów. Jego boki przytwierdzone są do skały, zaś podkowa wystaje 12 metrów ponad krawędź skalnego zbocza. Można dojechać niego autem, busem lub skuterem drogą prowadzącą na szczyt Sveti Jure.
Biokovo – masyw górski, położony w środkowej części wybrzeża dalmatyńskiego, o długości 36 km i szerokości 9,5 km. Największy i najwyższy masyw w Dalmacji. Biokovo powstało w kredzie (65 milionów lat temu), podczas zderzenia afrykańskiej płyty tektonicznej z europejską. Jako część Masywu Dynarskiego tworzą go przeważnie eoceńskie pokłady i mezozoiczne skały osadowe. Od strony morza Biokovo charakteryzuje się bardzo stromymi i nagimi wapiennymi ścianami, pod którymi leży wąski pas nadmorski. Najwyższym szczytem jest góra Świętego Jerzego (Sveti Jure – 1762 m n.p.m.), drugi co do wysokości szczyt Chorwacji. W 1981 roku obszar 19 550 ha został objęty ochroną jako Park Przyrodniczy Biokovo, dzięki wyjątkowym wartościom form geomorfologicznych, gatunków roślinnych i zwierzęcych oraz urodzie naturalnej.

The Tufjord Viewpoint offers good views of one of the scenic fjords cutting into Magerøya Island, Norway. This fjord is sometimes used as a refuge for boats heading into the Arctic.
My first visit to the acclaimed "most beautiful village in Austria" was a quick stopover, but well-timed: Due to still ongoing international travel limitations and a fairly late arrival on that day, crowds were relatively small and I was able to take in the sights without having to queue.

I'm here to learn - please tell me how to improve on my photography! Constructive criticism highly welcome :)
While at Point Defiance’s 5-Mile Drive I stopped at a viewpoint overlooking the Puget Sound. Included in the view is a lone boat and the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, also known as Galloping Gurtie. The original bridge fell in high winds and these twin bridges do close when winds get too high.

It’s no secret the view from Prague Castle is one of the best in the city, but what most visitors to Prague don’t know is there’s an even better view only a few minutes walk from the castle, from which you can see almost all of central Prague and the notable landmarks in the city’s skyline:
the green dome of the Church of St. Nicholas,
Žižkov TV Tower,
the National Theatre,
NámÄ›stà MÃru,
Vyšehrad, and
the PetÅ™Ãn TV Tower, as well as Prague Castle from above.
Catch the view in the right light, and you’ll quickly see why Prague is often referred to as the golden cit
