Petra Jordan. Went 2 years in a row. 2nd time spent 3 days hiking all around
The Great Wall on a day trip from Beijing. Went to a remote enough part that there were only a few people and we did a good walk like an hour plus. The way it sits on the landscape like a ribbon is so beautiful.
Tibet. Barkhor in Lhasa - best vibe of any place on earth. Monasteries all over the country in amazing settings
Angkor Wat. Spent 3 days exploring the different sites with a driver that l hired through my guest house - amazing and didn’t break the bank.
Machu Picchu the Inka Trail, and Choquequiraou
Bolivia. So much to love. La Paz, Salar de Uyuni, the missions around Santa Cruz
Borneo. Hiking from the village of Bario
Japan hot spring villages and remote monasteries
Okavango Delta in a canoe, on foot, and from the air
Utah National Parks in early spring - still snow on the ground
Damn making this list I’m getting the travel bug again. So many great memories
Petra has been getting a lot of love on this forum lately and I’m so glad. Gosh it was spectacular!

Pittsburgh! Did not expect it to be so charming with lots to do.
Columbus Indiana -/ so cute!
Appleton Wisconsin in the summer — such a great energy, like everyone is so happy to be outside in the sunshine.
Latvia — very cool history. Probably all of the Baltics is a “hidden gem”
York England

Maybe you just have a good picker. Unlike the poster who went to Tijuana!

Bukhara, Uzbekistan - so much history. And Virunga, DRC. We organized our trip with https://www.inspired-journeys.com/virunga - and it was completely unforgettable. You go in tiny little groups of 4 or 5 people to see the Mountain Gorillas. Every morning, they send out scouts to find out where they have moved over night and your trek can be an hour or 5 hours to find them. Amazing trip. Bring good shoes.
Funny, Bukhara was on my hate list. Are you a woman? Were you traveling with a tour group? Although maybe it was Samarkand where I had more issues.

One of my most memorable meals in life was in the dining room there
