11 February 2013

From bold and vibrant to sublime and deserted, here is a list of the most beautiful places in the world. All these amazing places will be located in no particular order, since it is hardly possible to objectively assess how much more beautiful one place is than another.

If you can’t travel in person, you can take a virtual tour of the most beautiful places on our planet!


Let's start with the famous Lake Uyuni (Salar de Uyuni), the largest salt marsh in the world, where after the rain a very interesting mirror effect is created. Uyuni is very popular among tourists and travelers; there is even a hotel built entirely from salt.

The beautiful ancient temple of Angkor Wat in Cambodia, the country's most famous tourist attraction.

Next we go to Italy. We will visit the Cinque Terre in Rio Maggiore, which is famous for its colorful houses built on picturesque cliffs by the sea.

Among Iceland's attractions, the most notable is the Blue Lagoon, one of the most beautiful places in the world. These are natural thermal springs with very hot water.

The dream of many tourists, the Maldives. A real tropical paradise on Earth, the photographs of which are already delightful in themselves. Well, if you still decide to go here and see everything with your own eyes, then the hottest impressions of your life will be simply guaranteed.

Yellowstone National Park is famous not only in the United States of America. This is one of the largest parks in the world, where many of the most beautiful geysers on the planet are located.

The glass beach of California in the USA is unique in nature. It consists of thousands of small pieces of glass, sharpened by waves to a completely smooth state. The reason for this was a waste dump that once existed here. As a result, nature took its toll and pushed out the mountains of garbage, leaving only this beauty. Now the beach is under state protection.

We head to the other end of the planet, to Turkey, where we will visit the hot springs of Pamukkale, located on rocky terraces of a mysterious shape. This place, like most of the others on our list, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The place where lava meets the ocean, Big Island in Hawaii. A unique natural phenomenon that is rarely seen anywhere, hot lava enters the cool ocean waters and cools forever.

In the middle of the list of the most beautiful places on the planet is St. Lucia, a luxurious tropical island and country of the same name, part of the Caribbean archipelago.

Another representative of the colored cities of our planet is Santorini in Greece. Recognizable blue and white houses are located right on the cliffs by the sea.

A representative of numerous castles in the world, one of the most beautiful castles in Germany, Neuschwanstein, also made it onto our list. The majestic castle of the kings, more like a fairy-tale structure.

Marble Caves in Chile (Marble Caves of Chile). Thanks to the marble, the water here appears perfectly blue. All this is achieved thanks to the reflection of light and marble.

The largest fort in India looks like it is lost in time. Among the attractions of India, Chittorgarh Fort is rarely mentioned, however, in its beauty and grandeur it is not inferior to other beautiful places in the world.

We move again to Europe to see a settlement called Giethoorn in the Netherlands. It is also called the place where there are no roads. All houses here are accessible only through special channels by boat.

Another representative of Iceland on our list is the Crystal Caves. These are amazing ice caves that are dangerous to visit in summer but attract many visitors in winter.

Japan should not be neglected either. In particular, there is the mysterious island of Aogashima, which is of volcanic origin. In its crater there is a small village, isolated from the outside world.

The Longji Rice Terraces in China are so beautiful that we couldn't choose just one photo. This is one of the most beautiful places in the world.



The Amazon rain forest in South America is the lungs of our planet. They spread across a number of countries on the continent and are one of the most breathtaking corners of the Earth.


Our selection ends with Venice, a city on the water, a real pearl of Italy with chic ancient architecture and many canals.
