Reine
Norway
Quaint and quirky, it’s no surprise this chocolate-box Lofoten
island is known as the soul of Norway.
Blue Lagoon
Iceland
With silk-blue waters and black-lava fields, this geothermal
wonder looks like it’s already been given the “Clarendon” filter
treatment.
Berlin Cathedral
Germany
Home to the most important dynastic crypt in Germany, Berlin
Cathedral will forever reign supreme.
Iguazu Falls
Argentina/Brazil
On the Brazilian-Argentine border with falls crashing from up to
82m high, we agree with Eleanor Roosevelt when she remarked, “Poor
Niagara!”
Fontana di Trevi
Rome
Architects Nicola Salvi and Pietro Bracci created a
picture-perfect spectacle with this baroque masterpiece, featured
in films including La Dolce Vita.
Banff National Park
Canada
Canada’s oldest national park boasts landscapes so beautiful
that even “just point and shoot” photographers become pro.
Bora Bora
French Polynesia
Often described as one of the most beautiful islands in the
world, a trip to Bora Bora is like stepping into a desktop
background.
Sheikh Zayed Mosque
UAE
An amalgamation of Moorish and Arab architecture, the grand
mosque was designed to glow with natural luminosity, changing
colour with the lunar cycle.
Banaue Rice Terraces
Philippines
These rippling terraces were hand-carved into the mountains by
indigenous communities over 2,000 years ago, making them the oldest
in the world.
Cappadocia
Turkey
This martian-esque landscape in the Anatolian plains is known
for its “fairy chimneys” and rock-cut churches.
