Five Unusual Travel Destinations for the Adventurous Traveller

If asked to name the "must-see" attractions in the world, people usually name several landmarks such as the Great Wall of China, the Eiffel Tower or the Egyptian pyramids. These popular travel destinations offer beautiful scenery and new cultural experiences.

For the more adventurous traveller, there is a lot of other unexpected and unusual travel destinations that offer the true excitement and a unique travel experience.

Sun City, South Africa

If one's idea of adventure involves flying through the air without a parachute or plane, then Sun City, South Africa, provides a fantastic opportunity for those aerial explorers. Sun City boasts the world's longest zipline (переправа по канату) adventure. At 6,500 feet (1981 meters) long, this zipline allows you to fly Superman-style at 93 miles per hour over gorgeous grasslands. This is a must-see for anyone who likes speed, heights, and the inevitable adrenaline rush!

Ha Long Bay, Vietnam

The second unforgettable and unique travel destination is Ha Long Bay, located in the Quang Ninh province of northern Vietnam. Visitors to Ha Long Bay can spend one or more nights aboard a small cruise ship known as a Junk. While in Ha Long Bay, travellers can admire the beauty of nature's architecture featuring thousands of isles rising out of the ocean, covered in jungle vegetation. In addition, travellers can explore several beaches, caves, and inhabited islands.

Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

Geographically, Ethiopia lies within the Horn of Africa, with a tropical climate, warm and sunny for significant periods even through the rainy season. Addis Ababa is an incredible city, one of Africa's largest urban centres. Adama is another place people love to visit while they're in the country; you may know it more as Nazareth. The volcanic water pool in Sodere (near Nazareth) is a must-do experience when you're here.

Bali Indonesia

Indonesia is a vast archipelago with tens of thousands of islands in it. The country is situated across the equator on the Pacific and Indian Oceans, so the climate is hot, rainy at some times in the year. Jakarta is the biggest urban centre here, a bustling and fun one. The town of Bandung on West Java is a much-loved spot for visitors, a university town with lush (пышный) intense greenery and magnificent mountains. Bali is another well worthwhile destination while you're here, you'll see why it's known as the Island of the Gods.

Blue Lake Cave, Brazil

For a quieter experience, the Mato Grosso do Sul region of Brazil boasts the peaceful Blue Lake Cave. The impressive geological formations, including a number of stalactites and stalagmites are enough to provide some stunning imagery for those who travel to photograph. However, the real gem in this attraction is the large deep cobalt blue coloured lake.
