Hello fellow Steemians!

I am starting the week #91 of my 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge and we are back to the continent of Asia.

If you like to participate, place your personal image from your travels in Asia in the comment section below with a short 30 to 50 word description. Only use of personal images will be accepted and only one picture can be submitted for a daily photo challenge. Ten winning photos will receive a bigger upvote from me and ten runners-up will get a smaller one.

Chosen from the ten winning entries, the absolute winner of the day will receive extended publicity in my post tomorrow morning. I will also visit his/her blog to upvote one of the most recent posts. The winning picture of the daily challenge will then automatically enter other rounds with the absolute winner gaining approximately 200 SBD in total. So far I have given out thousands of dollars in upvotes and hundreds of SBD in rewards.

After today´s Asian photo contest, the 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge will be followed as per below rotation and then starting again with Asia on next Sunday.

• Monday: Australia and New Zealand
• Tuseday: Antarctica + the world’s oceans

Night view of Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong. This photo shows a part of the financial district of the city, with its high skyscrapers, and its vibrant life. You can see the light of the commercial signs reflected on the harbour waters.

Hiking in Wadi Rum, Jordan

Many people visit Wadi Rum, the most beautiful desert of Jordan, only on a Jeep tour, but there are some beautiful, if hard to find treks. Since my shoes were soaked from a rainy morning in Amman, I decided to go for a walk in my flip-flops, but they broke on the way and I ended up scrambling over these rocks barefoot!

Let me tell you it was worth your efforts ;)
Great picture!

Thanks!

Marina Bay Sands - Singapore

This is my entry for 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge for Asia. Recently I visited Singapore and got a chance to take this picture.
Marina Bay Sands has three 55-story hotel towers which are connected by a 1-hectare roof terrace, Sands SkyPark.The observation deck provides panoramic views across the bay. Definitely, this is one of the gems of Singapore and Asia.

Ode to the yurt
Tradi yurt 1.png
The yurt, seen in this photo here from Central Asia, is likely only of the oldest living structures we (humans not bots or AI), have used for shelter. Here are two traditional yurts using animal skins to keep out the cold (with a stove pipe - dried dung used here) to warm it up. Can you see the sheep in the background?

Colorful temple at the Summer Palace in Bejing, China.
During the hot summer months the emperor of China moved to this temple complex in the north of the city. It is a very huge area for just a summer residence ;)

Picture taken in India in New Delhi. This is a large mausoleum near the Humayun complex. The tomb of Isa Khan (1453-1548), he lived for 95 years, for the middle ages it is incredibly much. This mausoleum was built during the life of its owner in 1547.

Many only see the cosmopolitan side of Hong Kong when they go there on holiday. There are also many beautiful places in the rural area, perfect for hiking if you know your way around. A proficient hiker friend took me on this trail a few years ago. I never thought I'd see such clear streams in Hong Kong even though I lived there for most of my life.

First thing we see when we get out of the JR station in Kurashiki, a giant garden clock. Japan is well known for its garden, but in the middle of a busy intersection, it is a little bit strange. A pop of color in the middle of building is always a good idea, we need more of these.

Everlasting


Sunny noon at the center of Tel-Aviv, not far from Old Yaffa. I like quite a lot the infrastructure alongside the sea with a lot places to walk, sit down and have a rest, etc.
This tree looks like a natural sculpture symbolizing eternity

Shot with long tele-photo lens to compress the perspective, so the tree really looks like growing almost in the skies

Enjoy the scenery :)
