15 Amazing Places to Visit Before You Die
Cappadocia, Turkey
Cappadocia is the kind of place postcards are made of. Moon-like landscapes of arid valleys and bizarre rock formations are home to all sorts of curiosities.
Inside the “fairy chimneys,” tall, cone-shaped rocks, are the hollowed out remains of Bronze Age homes, which were carved directly from the rocks. There are entire underground cities, churches in rocks and distinctly phallic shaped formations rising out of the ground (the Love Valley is called that for a reason).
Whether by foot, horse or hot-air balloon, this is a region begging to be explored and marveled at making it a no-brainer when it comes to places to visit before you die.
Torres del Paine, Patagonia, Chile
Taking wild, raw beauty to a whole other level, the Torres del Paine National Park is a beautiful collision of the ragged granite massifs, deep valleys, turquoise lakes and slowly crawling glaciers. This can only be described as a dreamscape.
With so much nature, and so few people, this is the ideal destination for outdoor lovers and escapists, the perfect place to leave reality behind.
There's nothing quite like multigenerational travel. These are the best places to travel with grandparents for a vacation everyone will enjoy.
Victoria Falls, Zambia/Zimbabwe
Simply one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the world, Victoria Falls exists right on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. The sheer volume of the Zambezi River plunging down a series of basalt gorges is enough to take your breath away.
The iridescent mist thrown up by the falls, and the rainbows it creates, are visible from miles away.
