]]> Zadar is one of Croatia’s most beautiful coastal cities, but there’s more to it than its beautiful beaches and Roman remains. This city is home to some of the most unusual attractions on Croatia’s Dalmatian coast and these three deserve a spot on your bucket list because you can’t find them anywhere else in the world.

Sea Organ

Sea Organ is one of Zadar’s top tourist attractions, and it has to be seen (and heard!) to be believed. It’s an architectural marvel and a giant experimental musical instrument wrapped into one, with a staircase and tubes built beneath it, allowing it to play the music by way of the sea waves.

Pillar of Shame

This historic pillar looks pretty harmless today, but it used to strike fear into the heart of locals in the Middle Ages. It was once used as a tool for public punishments and humiliation and that’s how it earned its nickname.

Monument to the Sun

Sea Organ isn’t the only art installation in Zadar that uses natural forces to create something truly extraordinary.  Monument to the Sun is located right next to it, and it uses a system of multi-layered glass plates and photovoltaic solar modules to create a unique light show.

]]> If you’re an avid Instagrammer and are looking for an adrenalin rush, you can’t afford to miss this unique attraction: The Bali Swing. Well, you could argue that practically any piece of land on this breathtaking island is Instagrammable, and you wouldn’t be mistaken; but flying above a rainforest with an insane view? You can’t really beat that.

Located in Ubud, Indonesia, the Bali Swing is by far one of the most photo-worthy locations in Bali. It’s actually not one swing, but an entire facility including 13 huge swings that reach up to the height of 256 feet (78 meters), and 9 hanging nests (for those who want a slightly more mellow experience). Visitors get to swing through the trees, hang above the beautiful scenery (including a river and a waterfall), breath the fresh air and of course, take some gorgeous pics.

The site’s package includes a pickup from the Ubud Palace, drinks, and a lunch buffet, and you can also purchase a photography package to make sure you get quality documentation of the experience.

And the best part? You can swing for as long as you like! There’s no time limit.

]]> Have you ever been to the cinema while also floating on a raft in the middle of the sea? This is the unique experience that Thailand’s Archipelago Cinema offers.

https://www.instagram.com/p/2PAsFJQeHk/

The bizarre movie theater was designed by the architect Ole Scheeren. He thought up the cinema for the “Film On The Rocks Yao Noi Festival” in Thailand.

“When I saw the beauty of the Nai Pi Lae lagoon, I thought it would be amazing if the audience would float on the ocean while watching movies,” he said of his creation.

Scheeren was not wrong. With a team at hand, he built a huge floating device from recycled wood and mosquito nets. The audience sit on bean bags and watch the cinema screen with the sea and the jungle as the movie’s backdrop.

https://www.instagram.com/p/Bjokvv2gFoV/

The cinema is located in the middle of a lagoon in the Strait of Malacca. The audience float and rock gently on the driftwood. If cinema provides the chance for the viewer to escape their reality, the Archipelago Cinema takes escapism to the next level.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BxP1Z1mpBOY/

This archaeological complex is located in Cape Spartel, only 14 kilometers west of Tangier. Their most picturesque feature is the sea opening, also known as “The Map of Africa,” because its shape resembles the outlines of this continent.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BuZFQ0QnCVj/

There are many legends and myths surrounding this underrated tourist spot, and they make it even more magical. Some even believe that the macaque monkeys used this cave to come to Africa, and claim it’s a part of a 24 kilometer-long tunnel connecting Morocco and Spain.

https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp7kpdgBgUx/

The most compelling legend surrounding it is connected to the mythical hero it was named after. According to the ancient stories, Hercules slept inside this cave on his way to steal three golden apples from the Garden of the Hesperides.

]]> Hong Kong is a home to many breathtaking tourist spots, but you’ve probably never heard of one of its most stunning attractions. Un Chau Estate flower tunnel is one of its best hidden secrets, and it will make you feel like you’re in a Disney movie.

Un Chau Estate is located in Hong Kong’s urban area of Kowloon, and consists of a total of 10 residential buildings. The flower tunnel is pretty much impossible not to spot, since it’s located at the very entrance.

Walking through this secluded floral oasis will make you feel like you’ve entered a fairy tale world. This natural wonderland will provide you with the perfect escape from the bustle of the city, since it’s the polar opposite of Hong Kong’s crowded streets.

If you’re not a fan of vibrant flowers, and enjoy taking photos in front of an urban background, you’ll still find what you’re looking for at the Un Chau Estate. We’re sure you won’t be able to resist these colorful residential buildings with matching basketball court.
