Are you trying to figure out where to travel?
Read this article to learn the most beautiful places in the world to visit before you die.
Travel is one of the great freedoms we enjoy today. We seldom realize how lucky we are to be able to traverse our planet.
We are privileged to be able to explore different countries, see great landmarks, and learn about different cultures.
But where should we travel to?
With so many choices and our limited time on the planet, we have to prioritize where we travel.
This begs the question: what are the most beautiful places in the world to visit before you die?
The Most Beautiful Places in the World to Visit Before You Die
Life is too short to just go anywhere. You want each trip to be memorable. You are likely to have heard your fellow travelers talk about places they always want to return to. And equally likely to hear about places they regret visiting.
We want you to focus on visiting beautiful places in the world that you will never forget.
Here is where you should go:
-
The Pyramids of Giza
We have all learned about the Pyramids of Giza during our school days. But looking at the images in a textbook is nothing compared to seeing them in person.
Upon seeing the Pyramids, you will marvel at human ingenuity. You will see how structures made years ago still stand to this day. You can enter the Pyramids and see the hieroglyphics and ancient Egyptian art.
Seeing one of the earliest examples of civilization is an experience you will never forget.
-
Easter Island
It may be hard to get there, but Easter Island will be a travel experience that you won’t know what to make of.
The statues that are lined side-by-side on the island remain a mystery. What they represent and how they were used – if at all – draws curious visitors to the island.
You will also learn about the unique Rapa Nui tribe who have maintained their lifestyle, culture, and traditions by being separate from much of the outside world. The island is also a beautiful place to enjoy nature and enjoy swimming in the beautiful waters of the Pacific Ocean.
-
Positano
This Italian coastal town is one of Europe’s most charming attractions.
You will be amazed by the architecture and will envy the people who live on homes perched on the hill.
And you will be able to relax on the beaches and swim in the Mediterranean. If you want to be very adventurous you can hire a boat for the day to enjoy the crystal blue waters while getting the best view of the town.
Or if you want luxury, you should read more about chartering a yacht to enjoy Positano in an atmosphere of opulence.
-
Bora Bora
Sometimes you want to enjoy nature and get away from the stress of modern life. The experience of disconnecting is great and should be experienced by everyone at least once before they die.
Bora Bora is the perfect place to disconnect. It is the gem of French Polynesia and this is the place where you can rent a luxury villa that lies on the crystal blue waters.
You will also have access to white-sand beaches and will enjoy the kindness and superb hospitality of the Polynesian people.
-
Taj Mahal
One of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Taj Mahal is the ultimate symbol of love.
It was built during the 1600s and attracts millions of visitors each year. This mausoleum is built of white marble and has intricate Islamic art woven into the design.
You can also enter the Taj Mahal, crouch down and see the coffins of Shah Jahan and his wife Mumtaz, for whom he built the Taj Mahal.
-
Angkor Wat
A stunning temple built during the 12th century for Hindus and Buddhists to worship lies in the Kingdom of Cambodia.
Angkor Wat attracts millions of visitors each year and is the pride of Cambodia. It is featured on their flag, on souvenirs, and even on a popular local beer!
You will be amazed by the incredible structure and the intricate art and sculpture found inside the temple.
You can also meet a local Buddhist monk and be blessed by him.
Angkor Wat has become even more popular in recent years as Cambodia is a rising tourist destination.
We urge you to check it out as soon as you can.
-
Machu Picchu
Dating back to the 15th century, this ancient Incan site sits atop a mountain in Peru. You can spend days trekking and camping until you reach Machu Picchu or take a train with the scenery showing through the window.
While the site is on a high altitude, so you will want to preserve your energy, you will not regret it. It is truly an experience to witness the majesty of the indigenous cultures of the Americas.
A visit to Machu Picchu will have you exploring one of the greatest civilizations that have been overlooked.
-
Victoria Falls
This huge waterfall in the southern African nation of Zambia beats Niagara Falls any day.
You will see the incredible natural beauty that Africa is known for. You can also lie on top of the peak of the waterfalls as many tourists do.
After witnessing the rapid flow, look down and watch the calm waters flow between tall rock structures.
You can thank us later.
-
Icelandic Highlands
You cannot go through your life and not see the Northern Lights. And the best place to see them is while sitting in the Icelandic Highlands.
We encourage you to lie down on your back and just stare above at the dance of the lights against the Icelandic night sky.
The experience is indescribable – but we know that it will be among the most beautiful experiences you have ever had.
-
Galapagos
It was here that Charles Darwin was able to do much of his research for On The Origin of Species.
The Galapagos Islands host many animals in the natural habitat – far away from human colonization.
You will get to marvel at the amazing species we share our planet with. Being on these islands will make you feel grateful to enjoy the gift of life.
