Summary
These nine extraordinary holiday destinations will undoubtedly enhance your travel plans! 😁
While some locations are widely recognized, others are indeed specific sites rather than broad destinations; however, they all share an exceptional charm that makes them remarkable in their own right.
If you’re still contemplating your travel choices for the year, consider these nine holiday destinations that deserve a spot on your itinerary.
1.) Bagan, Burma
Historically referred to as Pagan, Bagan is an ancient city nestled in the Mandalay Region of Burma. This spectacular destination features over 2,000 Buddhist temples that are beautifully scattered across a breathtaking landscape. Therefore, it should undoubtedly be included on your travel agenda.
2.) Þingvallavatn, Iceland
This destination may sometimes be referred to as Thingvallavatn by navigation devices. Þingvallavatn is a picturesque lake in Iceland featuring a rift known as Silfra, delineating the divergent tectonic boundary between the North American and Eurasian plates, making it a premier scuba diving hub!
Therefore, you can experience scuba diving between the meeting point of the North American and European continents.
3.) Mount Ai-Petry, Ukraine
The visuals speak volumes for this location! This holiday destination is distinct and incomparable to any other location you have previously visited.
4.) Herrenchiemsee New Palace, Germany
Stunning and luxurious – while this palace is relatively new (by new, I mean just over a century old), its immense grandeur makes it an essential addition to your travel destinations.
5.) Melissani Cave, Greece
According to ancient Greek mythology, this cave was home to the nymphs. The rich history behind the cave, coupled with excavation efforts over the years, has revealed intriguing insights regarding this mysterious site.

The name itself provides ample reason to visit. Deception Island is a protected area, renowned for its numerous hot springs, and among the few locations globally where boats can directly enter the heart of an active volcano.

Why? Simply for the breathtaking view – it is undoubtedly an essential site to experience! Moreover, it is not open year-round, so it is advisable to confirm availability prior to your visit.
