Founded in 1586 Erdene Zuu (Hundred Treasures) was the first Buddhist monastery in Mongolia, and is now considered to be the most important in the country. At its height within it's huge walled compound it had 60-100 temples and 1,000 monks. 108 stupas are spaced along its walls. All but three of the temples were destroyed during the Stalinist purges in the 1930's and many monks were killed or sent to Siberia. A number of important thangkas, statues and masks were saved by being buried in nearby mountains, or hidden in local homes. On a hill outside the monastery is Kharkhorin Rock, a stone phallus that said to restrain the sexual impulses of the monks and ensure their good behaviour. . . . #erdenezuukhiid #erdenezuu #erdenezuumonastery #kharkhorin #mongolia #travelmongolia #mongoliatravel #visitmongolia #escapetomongolia #discovermongolia #instamongolia #mongolianadventure #monastery #buddhism #asia #asiatravel #discoverasia #exploreasia #travelasia #visitasia #asiatraveller #instaasia #latergram #offthebeatentrack #offthebeatenpath #roadlesstravelled #traveldeeper #travelblogger #iamatraveller

Staying in the Main Bazaar (Paharganj) in New Delhi is a travellers rite of passage - it's crowded maze of narrow alleys off the main street make you lose all sense of orientation, while on the main street the shopkeepers and the hawkers jostle for your attention while you try and navigate the crowds and the tuk tuks and the cows and the rubbish. The sensory overload leaves you in no doubt - you can only be in India! . . . #mainbazaar #delhi #delhigram #delhidiaries #delhistreet #delhiphotography #exploredelhi #India #discover_india #indiaclicks #travelindia #incredibleindia #indiagram #indiatravelgram #ig_india #ig_indiashots #india_gram #indiaphotography #discover_india #yourshot_india #indiapictures #streetphotographyindia #inspiroindia #storiesofindia #theindianroute #nzhtravel #fujifilmnz #travelblogger #iamatraveller

The view from the top of Nizwa Fort, Oman. Built in the 17th century by Sultan bin Saif al Yaruba, the fort is known for its 40m-tall tower. From the top you can survey the town, it's surrounding date plantations and the Hajar Mountains that dominate the town. . . . #nizwafort #nizwa #hajarmountains #oman #oman_pix #everydayoman #traveloman #exploreoman #discoveroman #oman_photography #oman_traveller #igersoman #omaninstagram #omani_traveler #middleeast #exploremiddleeast #travelmiddleeast #discovermiddleeast #landscape #travelphotography #offthebeatentrack #offthebeatenpath #traveldeeper #travelblogger #iamatraveller

A legacy of the Portuguese colonisation of East Timor (Timor Leste) in 1520 is the beautiful old colonial building that dot its capital Dili. This one was known as Casa Europa, an old Portuguese army barracks, that was taken over by the EU as it supported the country following its independence. . . . #dili #easttimor #timorleste #discovertimorleste #southeastasia #southeastasiatravel #asia #discoverasia #exploreasia #travelasia #asiatravel #visitasia #asiatraveller #instaasia #offthebeatentrack #offthebeatenpath #adventureisoutthere #adventuretravel #adventureawaits #streetlife #latergram #travelphotography #travelblogger #iamatraveller

The El Taito Geysers sit high (4320m) in the Andes Mountains in northern Chile not far from the Bolivian border. The world’s third largest geyser field it is home to around 80 active geysers. Local tours depart from San Pedro de Atacama before dawn and you bump over rough tracks in the dark occasionally seeing the silhouette of a volcano or 2. The early start so you arrive at sunrise, when the cold, high-altitude air creates a mystical landscape of steam. . . . #eltaito #sanpedro #sanpedrodeatacama #atacama #atacamatrip #atacamadesert #chile #chilegram #travelchile #discoverchile #explorechile #southamerica #latinamerica #discoversouthamerica #travelblogger #instatravel #wanderlust #highaltitude #geyser #backpacker #landscapephotography #travelphotography #travelblogger #iamatraveller

Praying at a Buddhist temple in Yangon. Sights like this are ubiquitous throughout Myanmar, but even after weeks travelling the country they never lose their allure. . . . @discovermyanmar @igmyanmar @myanmartourism #yangon #yangonlife #myanmar #burma #myanmartravel #myanmarburma #travelmyanmar #myanmartrip #myanmarpeople #myanmarculture #discovermyanmar #everydaymyanmar #MyMyanmar #wondersofmyanmar #travelasia #discoverasia #buddhistlife #travelphotography #backpackerlife #traveldeeper #travelblogger #iamatraveller

The beautiful backstreets of Doha.

Entering the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous (GBAO) Region in Tajikistan. It makes up 45% of the country but only 3% of its population. A restricted area it requires a permit to enter which is checked by a lone policeman that mans the outpost. . . . #pamirs #pamirhighway #m41 #gornobadakshan #tajikistan #tadjikistan #traveltajikistan #exploretajikistan #instatajikistan #мургаб #таджикистан #памирскийтракт #centralasia #explorecentralasia #travelcentralasia #travelphotography #offthebeatentrack #offthebeatenpath #roadlesstravelled #theculturetrip #travelawesome #worlderlust #backpacker #traveldeeper #nzhtravel #fujifilmnz #travelgram #iamatraveller #travelblogger
