Reddit is “an entertainment, social networking, and news website where registered community members submit content”, including photos. The website is well known all over the Internet, but some of Reddit’s niche communities are somewhat obscure. One of them is Earthp**n – subreddit dedicated to amazing places on Earth. A quick search in this community returns the most upvoted posts dedicated to Russia: an interesting virtual tour. Here are some of the most “liked” images of Russia.
