The Most Beautiful And Breathtaking Places In The World

Being an avid traveler I have been all over the world, but I have a few favorites that need a special mention!
THE WONDERS OF CAIRO
Cairo, city of a thousand Minarets is a mesmerizing sight for the sore eyes. Set on river Nile the sprawling capital has Tahrir Square and the Egyptian Museum in its heart. I feel this city is the best place to explore Egyptian culture and history. The mysterious city boasts of Giza which is the site of magnificent pyramids and mysterious mummies.

MAJESTIC MORROCO
City of Morroco is an absolute pleasure for a travel enthusiast. For Travelers like me who like an off-beat destination, the valley of Ameln in Morroco is an awesome place to explore! Situated in the Tiznit Province of Souss Massa Region, the spectacular Jebel-el-Kest range forms the backdrop of the valley. Lining the northern bank of the valley it forms the backdrop of the Anti-Atlas Mountains to the north of Tafraout. The valley has 26 villages huddled together at the slopes of Jebel-el-Kest.

AWESOME OTTAWA
Canada’s Southeastern Capital of Ottawa sits in Ontario at the border of Quebec. Synonymous with Victorian architecture the city is situated on the river Ottawa. The spectacular Parliament Hill stands at the centre of the city along with famous museums like the glass and granite National Gallery with noted collections of famous Canadian and indigenous artists.

BEAUTIFUL BELFAST
The beautiful city of Belfast is the capital of Northern Ireland. The brilliant city is the birthplace of Titanic and is also known for its political murals documenting the troubles of Twentieth century.



The city’s renovated dockyard has the Titanic Quarter which houses the Titanic Belfast Museum. The museum brings to the fore a nostalgic sad memory of the grand ship that was believed to be unsinkable. With its aluminum clad edifices it reminds of the ship’s hull, its builder Harland and Wolf’s drawing offices and the ships slipways that now host open-air concerts.




SCENIC SANTORINI

Santorini is one of the most scenic cities of Greece. The city is one of the Cyclades islands in the Aegean Sea, was devastated by a volcanic eruption in the 16th century B.C.E., forever shaping its rugged landscape and villages. The whitewashed, cubist houses of its two main towns, Fira and Oia, cling to cliffs above an underwater crater. They overlook the clear Aegean Sea and beaches made up of black, white and red lava pebbles.
