A landscape photograph taken from a high vantage point, looking across a wide mountain valley at the ancient Orbelian (Selim) Caravanserai in Armenia. The stone caravanserai building, with its distinctive rust-colored corbelled roof, is in the mid-foreground on the right, built into the side of a grassy hill. It is composed of weather-beaten, textured stone blocks, and a small, loose stone wall is in the foreground nearby. To the left of the building, a dirt track and a few small structures are visible. A winding road is carved into the side of the larger hill that rises steeply behind the caravanserai. In the distance, a massive range of mountains dominates the horizon, their high peaks covered in snow. Above it all is a heavy, dramatic sky filled with dark, textured rain clouds, creating a somber yet epic atmosphere. The lighting is diffused and moody, with a touch of highlight on the peaks and the building.

After visiting #TamilNadu, I headed to #Munnar, where I spent a few days exploring the surrounding area.

I really liked it, in some ways it reminded me of Sri Lanka, with its endless tea plantations and many Tamil workers in the fields.

We are an undereducated society.

As U.S. & Israel DESTROY the #CradleOfCivilization, its people, & the archaeological history of humanity, it’s disturbing how INCURIOUS Americans are about our shared past.

Take the #SilkRoad. In China, it was known as the #GlassRoad b/c of coveted #PersianGlass.

After #SriLanka I landed in #Chennai, #India. And I’m glad I was in Colombo before. It made the transition much softer. Thanks to that, I didn't experience the famous "culture shock" that everyone talks about.

But Chennai hits hard. #silkroad #travelblogger

What to see in Polonnaruwa and how to visit the most incredible ruins in Sri Lanka How to visit Polonnaruwa, the best ancient city in the Cultural Triangle. By bike or tuk-tuk. Ideal itinerary, ruins, and travel tips.

Again from #Dambulla, my next stop was #Polonnaruwa, one of Sri Lanka’s ancient capitals. And this time, it really clicked. Unlike #Anuradhapura, this place immediately felt more immersive and atmospheric.

​​​​Ross Ulbricht's net worth: From dark web kingpin to Trump pardonee Ross Ulbricht served 10 years of a life sentence before being pardoned by Trump. Here’s how his imprisonment started and ended, what he was worth before his arrest, and what he might be worth today.

It's old news, but early in Trump's second term he pardoned #SilkRoad founder Ross Ulbricht. Silk Road was a hub where illegal drugs were bought and sold. Ulbricht designed the site to conceal the identity of its users. #DonaldTrump #RossUlbricht #PresidentialPardon www.thestreet.com/personalitie...
