[Postcrossing] German Stilt Houses



I found this amazing card in my letterbox. Another UNESCO whs, I am always happy to find one of these cultural and historical gems in the postbox. These are the prehistoric stilt houses in Germany.  It is always a little bit strange to imagine how the life could have been in this time. It was constructed around 4000 B.C. The same architecture can be found in different places and different countrys around the alps. 



Also some pretty stamps. One of the common flower issue and the Nuremberg castle. It was constructed about 1000 years ago. The municipal buildings are now used as a youth hostel. I would like to spend a night there. That would be great. Living in a castle- every little girl's dream.

[Postcrossing] Official Italy




This card was send by a young russian girl who was on her vacation trip to Italy. What is this stamp? I am curious about the stamp. Seems to be a GPS video message. But I was not able to figure out how it works. I tried the code at the website, but nothing happened. I am not sure if there is a massage in general. If anybody knows more about this postal service, let me know. It seems to be a nice idea to connect media and postcards.
I like the card. It shows the famous UNESCO world heritage site "The Colosseum" in Rome. I am even more happy about it, because I was there. It was an amazing trip. Italy is amazing if you like historical heritage sites. I can highly recommend a trip.

[Found card] Mexiko






I found this card in a second hand book. What a great surprise! It is from Mexico and shows the pre-Hispanic Maya city of Uxmal. It is a UNESCO world culture heritage site. You can see the pyramid of the magician. It is one of the most important pyramids of the Maya culture. 
More about Uxmal and the pyramid.
