Incense burner

Yesterday Yelena, Nadya and I did the Riyam hike again. Yelena and I did it on January 6th with a small part of the hike group.
It is a very nice hike with views of the Riyam park and incense burner and some forts. You go over a mountain and then through a valley and end up behind the souq.

The last few days the viability is quite poor. I think that it has to do with the humidity, but could be wrong. Especially when you look at the picture I took earlier this month: https://365project.org/ingrid01/365/2021-01-06

The incense burner is actually a lookout tower. It was built for the 20th national day, so 30 years old now. I believe it has not been open for public for at least the last 2 years.

That's quite a difference between the two images. Out of the two I prefer this one because the haze gives it a little atmosphere.

Such an interesting structure. Both shots have a quality of there own.

This is a lovely photo. It’s amazing to me that they have such a large incense burner. Does it burn fragranced wood?

@louannwarren no, they do not burn anything there... It is actually a lookout tower. It was built for the 20th national day, so 30 years old. I believe it has not been open for public for at least the last 2 year.
