Traveling to a new place often feels like a dream come true. Delicious new food and gorgeous new sights to see make visiting a new destination a memory you’ll never forget. And then, there are some places that seem almost too beautiful to be real. Check out these places with landscapes and sights that are a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Socotra Island, Yemen
A UNESCO Natural Heritage Site, this island is located along the Arabian Sea and is full of natural beauty unlike anything you’ve ever seen. The untouched white sand dunes next to blue lagoons, the mushroom-shaped trees, and the deep caves show visitors the timeless beauty of the island.
Cappadocia, Turkey
Cappadocia is a region in south-central Turkey, known for its cone-shaped geographical formations they call “fairy chimneys.” With an entire ancient underground city beneath the feet of anyone standing in the region, this area is an incredibly beautiful and historically rich region. And it’s best viewed from the sky, in one of the many hot air balloon tours this area is known for!
Lençóis Maranhenses, Brazil
This national park is located on the northeastern coast of Brazil. Its landscape is covered in rolling sand dunes, and the valleys between the dunes fill up with water during the rainy seasons. This creates endless freshwater lagoons, creating an insane visual landscape and incredibly diverse ecosystem. And it’s the perfect place to go surfing, canoeing, and horseback riding!
