Pollensa - Santuari del Puig de Maria

My sister likes hiking so we decided to hike up to the Santuari del Puig de Maria as we expected beautiful views. The hike was easy and took about 50 minutes, however, in the heat it was not as simple but still enjoyable :) The views on the way and on the top compensated for all the effort.

When reaching the monastery it was almost like we arrived in a different era. The buildings were constructed in 1348 and almost looked like they were abandoned. There were benches with breathtaking views, a little chapel and a tiny cafe in the monastery. The surroundings are full of flowers, citrus trees and goats, it is a very pleasant place to rest after the hike in the heat.

Small windows with amazing views not to let too much light and heat



Inside the monastery, the climate of the past is preserved with old furniture and other details

On our way down to Pollensa, we met wild goats and adorable, small houses

Frost

Today I would like to show you few photos from one of the cold days that recently took place. I took pictures of nature around me. I'll hope you enjoy the gorgeous frost that can be seen on the plants as much as I do! :) Feel free to leave comments below :)    

Town by night

Last night I took some photos of my town of the sunset and night sky in late evening. 'Burning' skies, the gorgeous moon, clouds over cars that were passing by! It was a great time to take few pictures! :)

Greystones

During one of the rare, sunny days in Ireland, I have visited a small town called Greystones. It is surrounded by mountains with multiple beaches on the other side of the town. The blooming landscape and beautiful shades of blue were the highlights of the views while relaxing on the beaches in Greystones!
