Around the world,
there are places that just make you breathless, places where you can just look
on and be absolutely speechless. Traveling stereotypically is known for
students on gap year or when they have just finished their studies, but that
doesn’t mean that you have got to take a year off work and disappear visiting
every continent on the planet!
Some people
simply can’t go traveling until they have worked for a few years and saved up,
especially in this economic climate, but once you do have the money to go
somewhere breathtaking, where do you go? Ideally you will want to go somewhere,
which suit your needs and your personality! So here at Mesh magazine, we have
looked at some of the most beautiful and different places in the world for
people with different likes and dislikes and have chosen 5 worldwide
destinations.
We will start of
with site seeing. You might love to go around a city and look at buildings that
have been there for hundreds and hundreds of years, what better place to go to
then Rome!
Rome is known for
having the biggest empire in history with some landmark buildings standing
today! In Rome you will find places such as the Pyramid of Caius Cestius, the
famous 36-meter tall Pyramid, the Trajan’s markets, the 2nd Century
equivalent of one of today’s every day shopping centers, St. Peter’s Basilica,
the largest church in the world and center of Christianity, with the infamous
St Peters Square leading up to this famous church!
One of the most
beautiful sites one could ever see in the world is also based in Rome, and that
is the legendary Colosseum. This is the most famous building in all of Roman
Empire history seating a staggering 55,000 people and was a stadium where
gladiators fought wild animals for entertainment.
None of these however
would compare to Vatican City, home of the leader of Christianity! Vatican City
is the world’s smallest state, houses St Peter’s Basilica and is most famously
known for when there is a new election to become Pope, with thousands upon
thousands visiting every month.
Rome truly is a
beautiful historic city and a city that anyone with a love of history or famous
landmarks must go and see!
Not everyone
wants to go walking around a City though; maybe you just want to go and relax,
to get away from the stress of your home life. If this is you, then there is
arguably nowhere better than Palawan Island in the Philippines.
On the Palawan
Island, all your stresses will be gone and you can simply sit on the beach, or
by the pool with a cocktail and a book! The island is almost 2,000 kilometres of Rocky coves, jagged coastline,
white sandy beaches and clear blue waters! Add in the beautiful rain forest,
reefs and caves around the Island, really, what more could you need to have the
ultimate relaxing holiday?
On a holiday,
something that may be a necessity is Nightlife, and if so, Barcelona would most
certainly be somewhere to visit! Barcelona has some of the most diverse bars in
the world, with many partying the night away until the early hours of the morning!
Of course, this could be because the Spanish people dine very late and so the
peak time in on an average night out is 3am, with most clubs closing around 6
or there about!
In some of the nightclubs in Spain’s second
city like the recently refurbished Shoka, Elephant or Sutton
host not only some of the best DJ’s in the world but also gets visitors such as
Nicolas Cage and various other A Listers at their VIP bar! So, if you’re a
party animal then Barcelona is most certainly the place to be, no matter what
time of year you are planning on going!
If it is
adventure that you are after, then why not try out Tignes in the south of
France in the Winter! There is quite an amazing ski resort called Val d’lsere,
which hosted the freestyle skiing in the 1992 Olympics! Even if you have never
tried the sport of Skiing or snowboarding then why not try your look with there
been schools that teach it, and what a better place to learn! There are luxury
hotels as well as quality restaurants, bars and clubs! If skiing isn’t quite
your thing, then head to Tignes in the summer and try your hand at a number of
activities including an airbag jump, where you launch yourself onto a huge
airbag without any danger! There is also archery and shooting, Cannoning,
Glacier walking, mountain biking or even going into ice caves! This is really a
holiday for the adventure orientated person and one that is guaranteed to be
enjoyed!
If none of this
takes your fancy and you are looking for a family holiday for both the kids and
the adults, then why not head to Italy and go to Canevaworld, one of the worlds
most famous water parks! Just imagine the fun you and the kids could have with
100,000 square foot of a water park! As well as this there is also a night
festival every year showing various artists for the pleasure of the tourists!
As well as this there is also movie-land, the first theme park in Italy devoted
to the American film productions. Designed in the image of the original
Universal Studios in LA, this theme park has a studio that plays attractions
and film sets of America’s most successful films.
With all of this
to enjoy, whether you are a kid or an adult, you are guaranteed to have one of
the best times of your life and is really worth the trip for all of the family!
These five places
really are all five star and destinations that are a must see, and with the
summer coming up in a few months, there will no doubt be offers you simply
can’t resist!
