Our winners today 🍍🥇 Alcazaba Castle - 11th Century 📷 Malaga - Spain by @avdesing
I have always been passionate about castles I think and when I moved to Spain, more specifically Malaga and found out that there were two castles here I couldn't wait to see them. I have visited the Alcazaba Castle five times and I would go back again and again, because on each visit I discover something new or a new passage, a new staircase or something that catches my attention.

🥈 red tower / Kızılkule ( EN-TR) by @passenger777
Think of a king. In order to protect a civilization with historical and natural beauties, he risked everything and had a castle built for protection. The foundations of this castle are being laid with the clever art of a master architect, against attacks from both sea and land. This magnificent castle, the like of which we have rarely seen in history, was built under the name "Red Tower" in the Alanya district of Antalya.

🥉 Parish Church of Santa Maria do Freixo / Marco de Canaveses by @onyfest
Before going on the guided tour of Tongobriga, right where we stopped the car we found a beautiful church.
Here in this area, everything is properly restored and recovered and, as Mr. Jorge told us, many of these houses were built with all the stone that was removed from the land when it was disturbed and treated so that people could come here to live.
