Salt Lake City, wasn’t expecting it but breathtaking and unique

Grand Tetons are stunning. Actually a lot of the American west is.

We were recently in Cuba. Viñales was stunning.

Sandy Cay and the Baths in the BVIs

I have not been everywhere, but below is my humble list of the most beautiful places and things I have seen in my life:

- Lighthouse Point Beach in Eleuthera: insanely beautiful spot. Too bad Disney is making the whole place a destination for its cruise ships.
- The rice hills in Sapa, Vietnam: Very special place.
- The backcountry in Glacier National Park in Montana - such a beautiful place.
- The backcountry in Yellowstone: Some parts is like walking on another planet. Go backcountry and avoid the crowds of tourists.
- Some coral reefs and special areas I have found when scuba diving. One time I was diving in crystal clear water with all around visibility in about 60 feet of depth, with a multi-color soft coral garden below me growing on top of the finest and whitest bottom sand, with schools of fish swimming all around and larger fish at a distance and light rays penetrating the water column as if in a Hollywood movie. I remember looking around and thinking, so this is what beauty really means.

Not at all, I went as a teenager inter-railing through Europe when I saw Lucerne. My whole day's food budget was taken by the cost of a hot dog from a stand ($12!) and I slept in a tent in a campsite.

And I’d say just generally I’m in awe of any star-filled sky. As a city dweller, it’s a rarity for me and feels so special. I think it’s spectacularly beautiful.

Also driving the California coast through Big Sur, I found those ocean cliffs so beautiful and powerful it almost made me weep.

Have you seen the night sky in Westcliffe, CO?

Ditto! Plus Northern Lights in Iowa. Also, there was something supernatural about the way the sunlight shined in Fatima, Portugal.
