3. Aysén Region, Chile
Aysén in particular is one of those parts of Chile that can boast of its rather clean lakes, fjords, and glaciers. Removing it from the typical concrete jungle attraction, it is best for trekking, fishing, and viewing wildlife along the Carretera Austral road.
4. Ghent, Belgium
Though not as famous as Brussels or Brussels’ painting cousin Bruges, Ghent is a medieval town with rich canals, well preserved oldest buildings and a thrilling art scene.

9. Gjirokastër, Albania
Gjirokastër is one of the most beautiful towns that gas an extraordinary value for tourists as it is a part of UNESCO Heritage list; the town is rather Ottoman with cobbled streets, the stone houses, a fortress etc. The countryside is mostly for trekking and archeological sites and ventures..
10. Pangkor Island, Malaysia
Pangkor Island gives the kind of ambiance that tourists want – deserted, clear waters and white sandy beaches. We thought it fitting for snorkeling, taking a beach nap, and visiting fisher folks’ villages.
