We love a good vegan travel adventure, from invigorating land tours to lovely vegan river cruises. The opportunity to stretch one’s legs and feel the fresh air is wonderful, because the beauty of the world is best enjoyed when you’re out there, experiencing it first-hand. Welcome to this week’s Travel Tuesday blog.

This week, we’ve got an exciting set of photographs for you, gathered from the galleries of the great folk of Instagram. We’ve got magnificent cliffs, lush mountainscapes, and so much more for you to feast your eyes on.

Ready? Let’s go!

 

 

Our first pick of the week belongs to @fernandoc_agustin, presenting a beautiful sunset from Puerto Natales. The skyline is so dynamic in this particular photo, the vibrant hues of the setting sun obscured and distilled by clouds, with bits of radiance reflecting off of the mountain surface. The way the sun, clouds and landscapes work together to make a great photo never ceases to amaze us.

 

 

Next up is @2603ttocsasil, showcasing the Temple of Apollo in Delphi. The way that this sacred site is framed in the image is fascinating. In the background, you can see the ground slope down towards the valley, leading off into the cloudy horizon. In the foreground, you see remnants of the temple still standing symmetrically, retaining their structure despite the destruction of the main temple. The interplay of nature and human craftsmanship is always nice to see.

 

 

Kuang Si Waterfall comes alive in @izigrumo’s scenic photo. Here the tiered pools of water almost look like solid glass, opaque planes perpendicular to the thick and lush trees all around it. We can almost imagine the calming sound of cascading water, along with the serene noises of the forest all around you.

 

 

@gazsamo presents a nice and atmospheric shot of a mountain from Urique. Look at the way the wispy clouds contrast with the rough earthy textures of the mountain. Here, you can see the beauty of the high-altitude locale with its crisp fresh mountain air, the peak almost building-shaped as it stands tall.

 

 

Our final pick of the week belongs to @przez_liscie_i_kladki, presenting a magnificent shot of Tatrzański Park from a high viewpoint. The high contrasts of the various elements in the photo are stunning, with the deep blue of the lakes, the rough textures of the mountains, and the striking hues of the setting sun and its rays. There’s a sense of intensity to this shot, giving you the impression of being there, in that high place, gazing at the beauty of nature from such a soaring height.

That’s it for this week. Be sure to visit us next week for another batch of great photos to admire and be inspired by. When it’s safe for you to travel again, why not showcase your own adventures? Just add the hashtags #TravelTuesday and #VacationingVegan on your future IG travel photos, and who knows, maybe you’ll be featured in a future blog!
