When traveling abroad, we often visit the famous historical sites of the country we’re traveling, and for the most part, this is often done through a guided tour, taking a few pictures of the sites and then moving on to the next destination.

Below are 21 amazing pictures of such places that took part in the "Historic Photographer of the Year" competition, and behind each of them stands a photographer who devoted a great deal their historical passion, and the results are certainly not disappointing.
