      Amalfi Coast, Italy

      4/31
      This stunning stretch of coastline on the shores of the Tyrrhenian Sea has been photographed countless times and is perhaps best known for Positano, an eye-popping cliffside village that has been drawing vacationers year after year.

      Swiss Alps, Switzerland

      5/31
      The Swiss Alps are as beautiful as mountain ranges come and cover nearly two-thirds of Switzerland. However, you don't have to be passionate about skiing or hiking to appreciate the views.

      Reykjavik, Iceland

      6/31
      Despite being easy on the eyes overall, Iceland's capital, Reykjavik is particularly splendid as views of buildings give way to humbling angles of mountains, hills and sea.

      The Maldives

      7/31
      The Maldives is comprised of more than two dozen atolls that have been luring tourists to the Indian Ocean for several decades now and there isn't a bad time to visit. After all, the average mean temperature doesn't drop below 80 degrees at any point in the year.

      Tasmania, Australia

      Ha Long Bay, Vietnam

      10/31

      Santorini, Greece

      17/31
      The Himalaya mountain range in Asia is home to the planet's highest peak in Mount Everest and reveals what art would look like if it came to life. Earth's sixth-longest mountain chain is home to more than 50 mountains exceeding 23,600 feet in elevation.

      Petra, Jordan

      18/31

      Niagara Falls, North America

      19/31

      Ubud, Bali

      20/31

      Sossusvlei, Namibia

      21/31

      Uluru, Australia

      22/31

      Istanbul, Turkey

      Siem Reap, Cambodia

      24/31
      The remarkable temples of Siem Reap get most of the credit for attracting tourists to the Cambodian resort town and rightfully so. Still, the destination is also one-of-a-kind for culture.

      Yosemite National Park, California

      25/31

      30/31
      The Netherlands' Keukenhof is better known as the Garden of Europe. Located southwest of Amsterdam, the seasonal attraction is a hotspot for tourists in the spring. Despite being open for less than two months, this robust flower garden is well worth the trip.

      Giza, Egypt

      31/31
      Cairo is certainly beautiful in its own right. Nonetheless, nearby Giza steals the show with unmistakable landmarks that include the Great Sphinx and the Great Pyramid of Giza, the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
