10 Amazing Places To Visit In The World by Asapchikki(m): 10:11pm On Jan 22, 2021


Many countries and cities are blessed with natural and man-made sites that draw the attention of tourists, so in this article, we’re looking at sites and cities around the world that everyone should witness firsthand before they die.

In no particular order here are our 10 Amazing places to visit in the world, at least once in your lifetime.

The Great Barrier Reef

For underwater exploration the Great Barrier Reef is the pearl of the Coral Sea, you won’t find a more immense coral reef on earth. Being composed of almost 3000 solitary reefs and 900 islands this undersea wonderland of marine life shipwrecks and natural beauty stretches for over 1400 miles providing adventure around every trench with a varied ecosystem.

The Great Barrier Reef has been described as the rainforests of the sea, however, the reef faces the threat of climate change and pollution amongst other things thankfully the Great Barrier Reef marine park has taken measures to restrict human interference, still, we shouldn’t take this Australian landmark for granted so be sure to visit it responsibly especially if scuba diving is your passion.

The Taj Mahal

You can’t visit India specifically the city of Agra without having a photo at this marble mausoleum. The Taj Mahal was constructed during the 17th century as a tomb for Mumtaz Mahal the favorite wife of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan.

We’re all familiar with the main building which is distinguished by its marble dome and four surrounding minarets, while the tomb is the fiesta resistance it’s far from the site’s only architectural marvel, walking through the main gateway known as Derwaza you’ll be entranced by the Mughal gardens and reflecting pool. There’s also the great gate you’ll only be further blown away by the attention to detail etched into every nook and cranny.

The Greek Islands

There are somewhere between 1200 and 6000 islands in Greece you may need some help narrowing down your options.

The area’s biggest island is Crete which is ripe with gorgeous to explore and bodies of water to relax. Several islands are within the vicinity of Athens the capital of Greece, most would agree however that Santorini is a paradise unlike any other, you can lose yourself in the Cliffside town of Aegean which stands out for its array of Cycladic and cave houses, the radiant architecture is only rivaled by the view of the neighboring sea, it also may be the closest you ever get to visiting Atlantis as some have linked a volcanic eruption that took place in Santorini to the legend.

The Grand Canyon

There are several spots you need to drop by on any road trip across the southwestern United States, the most essential destination, however, is the grand canyon speculated to be somewhere between five to six million years old.

This colossal canyon is a staple of both the Colorado River and the state of Arizona stretching 277 miles long and over 6000 feet deep it’s an all-encompassing sight that’ll make any visitor feel insignificant, beyond taking a few photos one might assume that there isn’t much to do with the national park you’d be wrong though because there’s a wide assortment of trails for hiking and mule rides, allowing tourists to get an even more intimate look, it’s also home to Havasu falls if you need to cool off.

Paris, France.

When people think of cities right out of a fairy tale Paris is typically the first place that comes to mind.

France’s capital not only lives up to that description but it somehow manages to surpass all expectations, being the second most expensive city on earth it’s understandable why some people never get to visit Paris in their lifetime.
if you save up for a trip you’ll be rewarded with the most exquisite cuisine, the most fashionable shopping experiences, and the most elegant sights imaginable. From the Eiffel tower to the Louvre museum to the Arc de Triomphe, few cities host more iconic landmarks although The Notre Dame Cathedral is still under construction from the devastating 2019 fire it’s still a beacon of inspiration.

Machu Picchu

Machu Picchu is shrouded in so much history and mystery that the only way to truly absorb it all is to visit the ruins in person.

That's definitely a great article to have a look at. As much as I appreciate all the other places I find Greece one of the most stunning parts of the world. We had an amazing time when we visited, and I've never felt so rejuvenated before in my life. I think it's mainly due to the great scenery of the islands that we visited. We started with Crete and then took a ferry boat to Kos where we had some local tours. The biggest highlight of our trip though was definitely the Santorini trips that we had after a friend recommended Imerovigli and a full day tour to us.
