Top 20 destinations across the world that would make you pack your bags and leave!
20. Dubai, United Arab Emirates
In the last few years Dubai has emerged as a futuristic landscape that looms large and beautiful over the Arabian Desert. The city is certainly much more than what meets the eye as it houses the world's tallest building (Burj Khalifa), the world's largest man made island (Palm City), the world's only 7 star luxury hotel (Burj Al-Arab), and the world's largest nature reserve (Miracle Gardens). Not to mention the Souks that surround the Dubai Creek that are worth visiting. These sell everything from spices to crafts to exquisite jewelry to inexpensive tourist T-shirts. Besides, you know the world is rushing to Dubai when Hollywood biggies like Tom Cruise and Vin Diesel rush there to shoot their films.
19. Cape Town, South Africa
Cape Town is among the most iconic cities in the world. From Durbanville and Somerset in the east to Cape Point in the South to Atlantis in the north- this city never fails to mesmerize! The sweeping panoramas from the Kirstenbosch National Botonical Gardens define the landscape of this 'Mother City' whereas the sea vistas from the Cape of Good Hope Natural Reserve is magic. The Hiking and the Wildlife safaris, at Table Mountains (also a UNESCO world heritage site) and the Kalk Bay Mountains, and the wine tasting at Cape Winelands this world-class cosmopolitan has something to offer for all the kinds of travelers.
18. Queenstown, New Zeland
Queenstown is every adventure junkies' paradise. The town sits on the edge of Lake Wakatipu and is surrounded by the Southern Alps. From Kayaking, to bungee jumping, to para gliding, to Jet boarding to White-water Rafting... Queenstown has it all! (We weren't kidding when we said that this was an adventure junkies' paradise). But the place is much more than that... You can take a quiet cruise through nearby Milford Sound, which is a part of the UNESCO world Heritage site, or fancy fresh sea food at Fishbonne Queenstown, or... Take a Helicopter ride through the Remarkables mountain range, where most of the Lord of the Rings trilogy was filmed.
17. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
It is difficult to not take notice of a place when that place happens to organize the largest carnival in the world. Breathtaking Landscape, pristine beaches, warm laid back people, and some incredible architecture is what characterizes this 'Marvelous city' . The sight of Rio from Corcovado hill where its signature statue Christ the Redeemer is situated, is nothing short of magic. Hike up to Sugar Loaf Mountain for an equally serene experience or indulge in some sun soaking at the Copacabana beach.
16. Kerala, India
There is a strong reason why Kerala is called 'God's own Country'. Known for its Backwaters, Mountains (Munnar Hills), and huge coconut farms all tampered with lush green vegetation. Then there is also the famous Periyar Tiger Reserve where occasionally one can see its' beautiful inhabitant- the Royal Bengal Tiger. Along with these, Kerala is also home of diverse art forms like Kathakali, Kalaripayattu and Mohini Attam. The city itself boasts of diversity, from the synagogues, ancient temples and other heritage sites in Travancore to the mystique Munnar hills and from spices of Malabar to the ports of Kochi... Kerala is a must visit!
15. Siem Reap, Cambodia
13. Istanbul, Turkey
Istanbul bridges Asia and Europe, both physically as well as culturally.

That apart the iconic Chain Bridge and the grandeur of the Buda Castle are the stuff beauty is made up of. Also, the panoramic view across the Danube to Pest is simply breathtaking. This city has a unique vibe and a world-class music scene that brings in rhythm even to the most stiff souls. Budapest most definitely is among Europe's most delightful and enjoyable cities which many have termed as the 'Queen of Danube'.
11. Barcelona, Spain
When the Century's renowned architect (Antoni Gaudi) builds more than just a few buildings, that city is bound to be visually stunning with among the finest Europe has to offer.

6. Paris, France
Practically, no bucket travel list in the world, would be complete without including Paris in it! Paris remains the world's most beautiful, romantic city brimming with art at every corner, and carrying with it a rich culture and a royal history. Not to mention a long lineage of talents this city has given the world, what with the likes of Yves Saint-Laurent, Marion Cotillard, Roman Polanski and many more. No wonder then, that they call it the fashion capital of the world! So, if you would like to gorge on some pain au chocolat at a local deli, sip some champagne, and be awestruck by a whole barrage of Parisian marvels like Eiffel Tower (of course), Louvre Museum (why not), Arc de Triomphe, Moulin Rouge, the Notre Dame Cathedral, Moulin Rouge and Lido then head to Paris NOW!
5. Kathmandu, Nepal
When your city, is home to the top most point in the world, the world notices! This bowl shaped city stands at an altitude of 1400m and is home to some of the tallest mountains in the world: Annapurna, Langtang, Manaslu and of course... The Everest! There is a whole lot of things that this city has to offer... The city boasts of a rich history that can be inferred from the inscriptions on the Swayambhunath Temple, the Boudha Stupa and of course various heritage sites around the Durbar Square. Kathmandu is one of the most serene journey traveler can experience!
Note: While we completely and unequivocally endorse tourism in Nepal, we must bring to attention that on the 25th April, 2015 a massive earthquake measuring 7.9 richter scale struck Nepal with its epicentre about some 40-45 miles away from Kathmandu. The whole country is reeling under its' aftershocks.
4. Marrakech, Morocco
When a city is just a few miles away from Sahara Desert, and located on the foothills of the snow capped Atlas Mountains, you know the place is going to be indeed very special! Marrakech brims with character in its' every nook and corner... The pristine architecture of the gardens, the local markets, the mosques and the palaces so full of grandeur. Visiting the serene Jardin Majorelle, the historic city of Medina is actually like falling through a looking glass back into the stories we've read in our books. In fact, the whole of Marrakech, especially the Djemaa El-Fna square comes alive packed with musicians, dancers, and story tellers just like the way you might have read in one of your arabian nights' stories. In the last year itself, Marrakech, witnessed a record number of tourists from all over the world flocking this wonderland!
3. Ladakh, India
Bound by mountains, protected by the Himalayas, inhabited by the Indo-Aryans, adorned by nature, and dictated by climate- Ladakh is among the most beautiful places in the world. The breathtaking landscape, which is used as an important trade route in the region, is moulded by the nature over the years and is located beyond the highest motorable passes in the world... The stark and barren land interspersed with isolated settlements of green oases full of swaying poplar trees, apricot orchards, cultivated farm land, and a rare sighting of the elusive snow leopard is what dreams are made up of. The warm and generous people in the Turtuk village, or staying along the banks of the Pangong Tso lake... Ladakh stays true to its essence- the roof of the world!
2. Florence, Italy
Once upon a time the most influential city in the world, Florence is a cultural, artistic and architectural gem. The birthplace of European Renaissance, the birthplace of European architecture (Alberti and Brunelleschi) , the birthplace of Opera, the birthplace of first modern bank, the pioneers in science, politics, exploration and map making (Galileo, Machiavelli, Vespucci and Toscanelli)... Could this city be any more of a spectacular? Well Yes, it could. The Duomo, Galleria degli Uffizi, the list basically does not end. I could just not stop about Florence. So pack your bags and head to Florence now!
1. Grand Canyon, Arizona, U.S.
The best travel experiences are the ones that takes you by surprise! Grand Canyon witnesses almost 2 million tourists per year and yet, it doesn't matter if you're witnessing its beauty for the first time or the tenth time- The Grand Canyon WILL take you by surprise! The massive canyon, carved over several centuries by the Colorado river at an elevation of 2130m is an overwhelming experience. The Canyon so full of exquisite flora and fauna that mingles around this enormous landscape might just leave you awestruck! You need more than just a few days to explore the entire North and the South Rim and once you do, you might not experience anything else quite like that! Its almost as if the words fail to describe what a marvel this landscape truly is...
