bell to be notified about our latest
videos for this list while looking at
compelling countries and regions around
the world that have much to offer in
terms of culture scenery and history but
which remain relatively unexplored by
the average traveler the travel industry
is going to need support after the hit
it's taken in 2020 but people are
understandably hesitant to visit major
destinations known to be overcrowded
these alternative trips satisfy both
needs at once just be sure to always do
your research and check all travel
advisories number 10 Georgia while the
US state is well worth a visit we're
actually talking about the country that
straddles Eastern Europe and Western
Asia Georgians are known for their warm
hospitality the country has a distinct
cuisine and food culture no trip is
complete without partaking in a Supra a
traditional Georgian feast it's also
considered to be the nation with the
longest history of winemaking with
production dating back 8,000 years the
nation is home to thousands of mineral
springs and because of its position on
the historic Silk Road paired with its
rich local history Georgia is a treasure
trove of monuments and sites and we
haven't even gotten into the
architecture or breathtaking landscape
Georgia would rank high on our list if
not for the fact that it is beginning to
attract more international attention
it's still off the beaten path but not
for long especially the beautiful and
vibrant capital city of Tbilisi so make
it a priority number 9 the Republic of
the Congo looking to immerse yourself in
a natural environment after having spent
so much time cooped up inside why not
indulge that desire to the extreme with
an all-out wilderness adventure Congo
can actually refer to two distinct
countries the Democratic Republic of the
Congo and the Republic of the Congo to
its west both are worth visiting given
the untarnished natural beauty of the
region and the ample opportunity to see
wildlife unfortunately due to
instability in the DRC travel isn't
recommended its neighbor to the west
however is because
relatively safe and with so few tourists
annually you'll often feel as if you
have the place to yourself between
ethical Wildlife safaris and luxury eco
resorts you can really have it all
comfort and an escape from the city that
being said the country's capital
Brazzaville is well worth a visit this
breathtaking city has rightfully been
dubbed the Paris of Africa number eight
Slovenia from its capital Ljubljana in
the second city of Maribor to the port
of koper and the many towns and villages
that dot the country Slovenia feels
wonderfully unchanged by tourism and
it's genuine wonder as to why given that
this nation has a little bit of
everything to offer international
travelers Ljubljana stuns with its
baroque and Vienna secession
architecture in 2012 Maddy Bowen was
given the honor of being named a
European Capital of Culture which it
more than earns with its timeless charms
world-class cuisine and namesake castle
beyond the cities in the country's
northeast natural wonders beg to be
explored including three Glau national
park lake bled the Sochi Valley and the
Julian Alps best of all Slovenia's
approach to its growing tourism industry
is considered to be among the world's
most sustainable making this a
guilt-free trip number seven the Andaman
Islands located off the coast of India
and considered a Union Territory the
Andaman Islands are a slice of unspoiled
South Asian paradise sitting in the bay
of bengal the Andaman Islands are
notably sparse in terms of population
this is especially notable considering
how densely populated mainland India is
known to be a number of the islands are
off-limits to visitors instead being
preserved for the insular indigenous
tribes who inhabit them those that are
accessible to foreigners however offer
the sort of Beach vacation that many
might not have thought still possible in
our modern age pristine white sandy
beaches lush forests and an abundance of
sea life
coupled with limited development makes
the Andaman Islands feel like your own
private getaway the accommodations while
limited know how to pamper their guests
the only real issue you might never want
to leave number 6 pictured rocks
national lakeshore United States when
you think of escaping the crowds and
disconnecting from the hustle and bustle
of life chances are that Michigan isn't
the first destination that comes
mine due to its industrial history in
the Upper Peninsula of Michigan however
we see a very different side of the
state America's great wilderness and
natural beauty and nowhere is the
splendor more inspiring than along
pictured rocks national lakeshore
covering 42 miles of shore and 114
square miles of land this park is named
for its towering sandstone cliffs
countless years of erosion have shaped
them into shallow caves and various eye
catching natural formations add to that
the Sand Dunes waterfalls and ample
opportunity for outdoor activities and
pictured rocks national lakeshore
becomes the perfect off the radar
American holiday number five
Naxos grease the appeal of the Greek
islands is undeniable these shining gems
in the Mediterranean attract crowds with
their breathtaking shorelines and the
promise of rest relaxation and beautiful
weather unfortunately many of these
islands have been fundamentally changed
by their own popularity the paradise on
earth once promised by Santorini and
Mykonos has been somewhat tarnished by
the droves of tourists that crowd these
now world-famous islands for a trip back
in time to the glory days of the Greek
islands consider a trip to noxus which
is located between the two after
mentioned destinations picture-perfect
clusters of whitewashed homes
breathtaking sunsets historic ruins
fishing villages family restaurants
dishing up mouth-watering plates of
fresh seafood sandy beaches
Naxos has got it all and for the time
being it remains entirely absent from
your typical tourist itinerary this is
the Cyclades as they were meant to be
experienced number four
Ladakh trust us when we say that this
spot in the Himalayas is unlike any
other place on earth far from the most
crowded cities this largely undiscovered
region of Kashmir which remains a
disputed territory between India and
Pakistan so be sure to check for any
travel advisories is a land of mountains
breathtaking views big sky and rustic
natural beauty at an average elevation
of 11,500 feet scenic vistas tend to be
the rule rather than the exception it's
home to a population of just about
275,000 people and the number of annual
tourists is similar within the region
one finds no fewer than 35 buddhist
monasteries which are among the most
popular attractions
Jacque is firmly rooted in traditions
history and local culture authenticity
needn't be sought out it's everywhere
you turn and to help preserve both the
natural beauty and cultural integrity of
ladakh eco and sustainable tourism is
being championed number three mongolia
take a survey of the top ten places
people want to visit it's a pretty safe
bet that Mongolia isn't gonna come up
but travelers don't know what they're
missing in this over documented over
shared and increasingly small world of
ours a sense of adventure can be hard to
come by a view unobstructed by signs of
human activity even more so in Mongolia
however they've hardly made a mark on it
the largest city will an bata is home to
only about a million and a half people
and a substantial portion of the
nation's residents continue to practice
the traditional nomadic lifestyle
Mongolia is rugged mountain peaks
abundant wildlife and seemingly endless
Plains can feel downright surreal but
for those who seek space to explore and
reflect you can't ask for a better
setting that being said LaLanne batad
still offers all the modern comforts and
concentrated culture one expects from an
urban center number two trentino-alto
adige suit it all despite it's
unbelievably horrific 2020 Italy will
eventually remain among the most popular
tourist destinations in all of Europe
Rome Venice Florence the Amalfi Coast
Tuscany such cities and regions require
no introduction but travel to the north
eastern extremity of its borders and
you'll feel as if you crossed into an
entirely different country and in a
certain sense you have the autonomous
region of trentino-alto Adige suit tito
is historically austro-bavarian but was
annexed by italy in 1919 whereas the
French Swiss and Austrian Alps are well
trodden territory with price tags to
match the Italian apps and Dolomites
remain far less traveled they are a
tourist destination true but really only
with locals and neighboring nations here
Italian and Bavarian culture blends
together in fascinating ways set to the
backdrop of absolutely jaw-dropping
mountains hiking skiing spas local wines
and beers and a highly regional cuisine
this region of Italy needs to be
experienced to be understood number one
Papua New Guinea
average this country receives only about
200,000 visitors per year being the
world's third largest island country and
considering all it has to offer
that is a shockingly low figure but
we're not complaining
rather than being inundated with
visitors like one might expect Papua New
Guinea is a land of unspoiled - lush
greenery colorful wildlife and
unparalleled opportunities for trekking
and outdoor adventure as if that's not
enough the island surrounding waters
offer some of the world's best diving
with an abundance of shipwrecks coral
sea life and more surfing is another
popular activity that like all of the
above benefits from the lack of crowds
one of the most culturally diverse
nations on earth with 851 known
languages it's truly an inspiring
destination in every sense of the word
whether you're looking to brave the
jungle or simply kick back at an eco
resort Papua New Guinea is the perfect
choice do you agree with our picks check
