25 of the most breathtaking and colorful places of the world.Granted, not all of them are the work of Mother Nature. A couple of them are man-made and quite a few are an amazing mix of art and nature. Then again, we're part of nature, too ( Read more... )

Right, I tried to give the tags that seemed the more appropriate. I hope they're enough.

GAHHHHH! I SO DNW Thor's Well!

I like the big caves. Vietnam has a lot of these big ones :)

And China has so many other beautiful places than the always cited rice fields in Yunnan - although Yunnan itself is a paradise for botanics. Not for humans, though, counting they have big problem with rabies and the goddamn black death.

Have some Shanghai/Suzhou pics

Ooooo I've been to Suzhou! Except it was winter- it wasn't as beautiful as the pictures, here. Lovely to see the bridges again :)

I've been to the Arashiyama area but never Sagano Bamboo Forest. If I had more time in Japan I'd totally go.

The Isle of Skye is where I'd want to go. Beautiful. Either that, or the Tunnel of Love. Or the caves. Or the Travertine Pools. Or Cenotes. Or... Yea. They're all pretty awesome. Except for the suspension bridge because I'm super scared of bridges. I would cry if I set foot on it.

I've never been to any of the places, sadly. I live in Japan, but I've never gone to Sagano. Honestly, after seeing bamboo (not nearly that much, though) almost every day on the way to work, I'm not really heartbroken that I won't see it before I leave here :x

Really nice list, though.

Yeah, I don't think I could handle that bridge either.

Yeah, I'm the same, all "Ooh, wanna go there!" until I got to the bridge.

God, those are gorgeous. How can I choose! Probably the Sea Cave... I think I could sit in there for hours.
