A Few Travel Scenes From Around The World

by Driftwood on April 21, 2011

The word vacation is a loaded term. It comes crammed with extraordinary possibilities. If you think about it, nowadays virtually the entire planet is accessible for a visit. The tricky part of course is narrowing down a destination(s.) Perhaps you enjoy the outdoors, or maybe the city lights are your cup of tea, or even both. Wherever your travel intentions lie, there is a spot for you. With this in mind, let’s take a look at a few places that are sure to leave you with great memories.

When you hear the name Bali, your mind cannot help conjure up thoughts of the exotic. It is an Indonesian island of great geographic variety. Visitors can take in majestic mountains, coral reefs, and white and black sand beaches. Moreover, Bali is well steeped in other attractions. Be sure to visit any or all of the island’s famous temples, such as the Besakih, Tanah Lot, and Uluwatu temples.

If you find yourself in the Swiss Alps, one place not to miss is Zermatt. It is the village that surrounds the most recognizable mountain of all the Alps – The Matterhorn. From here you can take advantage of rail or cable car facilities to get you to one the mountain’s summits. In fact, one cable car service can take you to an altitude of almost 3900 exhilarating meters.

If you are thinking of Japan, you should consider Tokyo. A stop by the Imperial Palace is a must-see. Similar to the British, the Japanese take the monarchy seriously. That is why the palace is complete with beautiful architecture and gardens. On New Years Day as well as the Emperor’s birthday, visitors are allowed to go inside the palace.

Art and grandeur come together amazingly at the Louvre. Any visit to Paris must include a stop by the museum, among the most famous in the world and the most visited. An average of 15,000 people stop by each day. The Louvre Palace is where the collections of art are kept. You will be able to see masterpieces by Raphael, Titian and Rembrandt among others. Arguable the most famous piece ever, the Mona Lisa is also housed here.

You do not have to be a veteran of World War Two to be overtaken with emotion when visiting the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial in Colleville-sur-Mer, France. Spread out over 170 acres, it is the final resting place of almost 9400 Americans who sacrificed everything during the initial invasion of Normandy and its related subsequent campaigns. Each headstone is impeccably white and rests atop immaculately maintained grounds.

If your travel itinerary finds you in Rome, Italy, you will have no difficulty finding things to do. First, you’ll have to tear yourself away from the trattoria, osteria, or ristorante. The Italian cuisine is habit forming. If you do manage to separate yourself from the table, why not make a journey to St Peter’s Square. From there, you can enter the Basilica. It holds the distinction of having the largest interior of any Christian church. Moreover, you’ll have the opportunity to look upon some of Michelangelo’s greatest works.

Whatever your travel plans, there will always be something that suits your fancy. Maybe it will be a string of museums or palaces. Perhaps it will be a beautiful beach. In any case, all you need to do is look closely and you are bound to find something that will give you a lifetime of memories.
