In pictures: your travel landmarks on Instagram
We asked you for your images of travel icons, and here are the best, from the Eiffel Tower to lesser-known gems
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.For the second of our Instagram challenges (you can see the first here), we asked our followers to post their best photos travel landmarks, using the hashtag #IndyLandmarks. Here is a selection of the best, taken in far-flung destinations, as well as places closer to home.
Our next topic: water. It could be a lake, river, the sea... or something else - but the focus should be on water rather than the beach. Just add #IndySplash to your Instagram post, new or old, and we'll pick the best for next month's gallery.
For #IndyLandmarks, we start with a great shot of Machu Picchu, with matching passport stamp illustration...
