What 3 places are at the top of your list to visit?

April 21, 2008 4:54am CST
What 3 places/countries/continents are at the top of your list to visit and why? Mine would have to be; Mauritius because thats where my family originated, Japan because I'm keenly interested in their culture, lifestyle and history, and New Zealand because I used to have a Kiwi English teacher and she used to talk about it like it was heaven. Maybe that's because she was biased, but I'd like to go to see if it is true =).

To me, I think US and Russia are the top 2 countries of my list to visit. I do not have plan to visit the third one now. I want to visit US because this country is the strongest country in the world. I would like to see why it is so powerful. The other country is Russia because it has strong influence on my own country especially in cold war. The Soviet Russia set a example to my country.

hey ya! the top three countries that are on my list are: 1. Japan - because i am an anime fan and i would love to visit Akihabara which is a haven for all kinds of otakus. and i want to meet a lot of my Japan idols too like Ikuta Toma, Yamapi, Kamenashi Kazuya, Hiro Mizushima, Jun Matsumoto and Akanishi Jin! plus, i want to see Sakura trees, ancient temples, dojos, and a lot lot more! i am just so curious to see everything in Japan! 2. Canada - specifically in Prince Edwards Island which is the setting for Lucy Maud Montgomery's Anne Shirley novels. she described the place to be really beautiful and i would really love to see it. the prairie, the meadow, the forest, the flower beds, everything! 3. Korea - i want to see the place where they shoot Dae Janggeum, The Legend and Jumong. and then, i would love to see Bae Yong Joon, Rain, Song Hye Kyo and many other Korean idols!

Three three places at the top of my list are: Hawaii (simply magical), New Zealand (as I have heard so many good things about it, and Indonesia. That country seems to have a life all of its own. But I would live to go on a world trip and just take in all corners of the globe before I die. Would be so lovely.

This sounds a bit geeky, but I'd like to go and see the statues and churches depicted in Angels and Demons (if they exist like in the Da Vinci Code)

For me that will be Italy, Japan and New Zealand. I want to go to Italy because i was fascinated by movies from Italy. I want to go to Japan because i'm a Japanese major and i do hope that i'll be able to see Fuji Mountain in person. And to see the blossom of sakura, pay visits to the places that have appeared in my Japanese text books. Reason why i want to go to New Zealand is a little bit similar to yours, i have a teacher from New Zealand, she's just so kind and she sent many post cards when she's back in New Zealand, and what's more, if i go to New Zealand i'll be able to see the places where the "Lord of the Rings" was shot. Have a nice day!

haha I'd love to see the Lord of the Rings locations. I adored the scenery in the films, I realise most of this is computer enhanced if not completely made by the computer.

1. Australia. I just have this crazy vision in my head of playing soccer on the beach there. I just think it will be so relaxing. Ever since the thought entered my mind I cannot forget about it, so I will have to do it eventually. 2. Prague. It just seems so majestic and mysterious. So rich in history. I just think it would be fascinating to visit. 3. Israel. I am a huge history buff, so that about explains this one.

A colleaque of mine went on a drinking holiday to Prague with his wife, cousin and his cousins wife. They said it was really good and very beautiful.

I'd have to say China, Canada and Switzerland. China for the mystical ancient history, Canada and Switzerland for the scenery.

On my top three places are Morocco because it sounds and looks exotic and unique, Australia because I want to see the great barrier reef, and Germany to see beautiful romanesque houses and castles.

My list would be: New Zealand because it does sound like heaven from all I've heard about it, Europe because there's so much culture, music and history about it that I am fascinated with, and the USA- I want to visit all their national parks!

I would like to go to New York City. I would also like to go to Italy, and then I want to go to Great Britain. I got fascinated with New York after seeing all those old movies and I love Italian food and what better place to get that then in Italy itself. Also I was born in Scotland, my mother was born in England, and it seems that I am naturally drawn there. I might want to go to Australia and New Zealand, but it is way too far out of our price range. We would need lots of money to go those places though.

I have been to NewZealand and it was pretty good. I only stayed for a short while + we have two small nieces there that I'd like to meet for the first time and many more I'd like to see again, so NZ is on my list. For some reason I'd like to see Taipei. Do not know why, I just do. Then I want to go to some small pacific islands. preferably where there are no sharks. I would like to see hove people really live in a place like that. It looks so peaceful and nice. No arguements between christians and muslims, no war between pro life and abortionclinics. Just the sun and the sea and living together in peace. Although I imagine they lead hard lives with lots of hard work as well. But it looks like paradise from here.

I once wanted to see Australia, but my top 3 are places here in the states since I want to see the states, all 50 before I die. I'm not sure it will happen, but I would like to see all the states and many of the tourist attractions that go with them! My top three places would be 1) Hawaii,because I've heard how beautiful it is there 2) Florida,because I had planned to go in 1976 but started teaching instead and still haven't gotten there and 3) Arizona, because I have email friends there who I would like to meet and visit with.

Dubai Architecture - This is a future photo of what will be the tallest building in the world, located in Dubai.
There are so many place I would love to visit, but if I had to pick my top three it would take a lot of thought. I know right off the bat if it were possible, one of the places I'd love to visit is Dubai because it's one of the most beautiful places in the world. There are so many gorgeous buildings. I'm sure the weather is nice there also. I'm not sure how much you know about it this place, but Dubai has the only 7-star hotel in the world. (If you haven't seen it, look up the 7-star hotel online. There are pictures gallore. You will love it!) They're also in the process of constructing the world's tallest building there. It's going to be three-quarters of a mile high. (I attached a future photo of what the building will look like when it's completed next year.) As for the other two places I'd like to visit, I'd probably go to Germany because that's where my ancestors are from, and I'm mostly German, of course. I've also always wanted to visit Prince Edward Island, thanks to the 'Anne of Green Gables' series. (LOL) Those are probably my top three places right now, with Dubai definitely being first. Eventually, however, I'd love to travel the world. I don't know that my fear of flying will really help my dream come true, but who said I couldn't dream? (LOL) Excellent discussion. I really enjoyed this one.
