The world that we live in has some amazing and beautiful sights on offer. Some of them are such amazing places in the world that they simply call out to visitors from all around. From man-made structures constructed beyond excellence to the wondrous sights offered by Mother Nature, our world has everything on offer. Although there are numerous places in the world beyond description, I have listed below my pick of the top five places that must be visited by everyone during their lifetime.
Colorado Grand Canyon:
Located in the United States, the Colorado River has cut one of the steepest gorges in the world. 18 miles wide, over 1 mile deep and over 275 miles long, this gorge is humongous. It is said to have been cut by the River Colorado over a period of 6 million years. The Grand Canyon is also one of the most visited places in the world.
The Great Barrier Reef in Australia:
The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is one of the most amazing places in the world and is also the largest coral reef in the world. Not only is this natural wonder a National Heritage site in Australia, it is also a World Heritage site. Although it is now in danger due to the effects of global warming, it is a must visit place for all travel enthusiasts.
The Taj Mahal in India:
A true depiction of love and beauty, the Taj Mahal is one of the seven wonders of the world. The Mughal emperor Shah Jahan built it in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Situated in the city of Agra and close to the New Delhi, the Taj Mahal is also a World Heritage site.
Machu Picchu in Peru:
Meaning ‘Old Peak’, this ancient historical place is found in the country of Peru and is one of the most beautiful places in the world. It was considered a sacred place by the Incan people. Machu Picchu has some beautiful stone structures that were built by the Incas which truly take away one’s breath.
The Egyptian Pyramids:
One of the most amazing places in the world, the Pyramids of Egypt need no introduction at all. Built over several centuries years ago, the most famous of the lot are the Pyramids of Giza. History records suggest that each pyramid took over 20 years to build and the entire pyramids were built over several hundred years.
