peace and guidance can make the journey to  this corner of honshu and see the waterfall

to nazi falls number eight antigua you won't be  short on beauty no matter which of the caribbeans

by pamfroms but antigua may be the most beautiful  of all as it's in the tropics the weather is going  

to be incredible year round if the skies are clear  you'll get a real taste of the laid-back lifestyle  

the caribbean's island nations are famous for  sipping delicious rum and sunning yourself on the  

hundreds of beaches you can also head to the  country's second island barbuda for much of  

the same but with even fewer people as there's no  bustling capital city to contend with few places  

are better suited to endless lazy days on the  beach number 7. ha long bay vietnam visually how  

long bay is known for its many towering limestone  islands that litter the waterways in this idyllic  

region of northern vietnam people have been  writing about the bay's beauty for hundreds of  

years with evidence of human activity dating back  millennia undoubtedly the most relaxing thing to  

do is take a cruise around the bay and its islands  and discerning tourists can even do this on a  

traditional junk ship with its distinct red sails  while on your cruise around the tropical scenery  

you can relax on deck and watch the world roll  by you can also enjoy some traditional vietnamese  

seafood either while sailing or when you return to  the mainland but you'll always have the bay itself  

in view number six this croatia this tiny island  has been one of croatia's best kept secrets for  

years as croatia itself further gains popularity  among tourists thanks to its long coastline and  

many beaches this has remained isolated and  untouched unlike many parts of the adriatic  

this hasn't yet suffered from overfishing so  there's plenty of seafood whereas much of the  

country is known for its nightlife this is a much  more relaxed part of the world where you could  

enjoy long walks through tiny european streets  and get a taste of what life is like in a place  

that only recently opened its doors to tourists  the isolation is visa's primary appeal and it's  

a stunning off-the-grid experience you won't find  anywhere else as you enjoy beach views cave pools  

sleepy eateries and lots of wine from the local  vineyards number 5. phuket thailand though the  

time mainland is known for huge diverse cities  like bangkok there are plenty of idyllic places  

to go if you need some respite from crowded cities  phuket may be thailand's biggest island but it's  

still small enough that you can easily find places  to relax without getting caught up in the chaos  

it has many undeniably stunning beaches but the  jungles can offer a different kind of relaxation  

to taking in the sun jungle hikes might be  exhausting but they'll bring you closer to nature  

than many other tourist activities and the rest  after your time in the wild will be indelible  

phuket town will also provide a calming journey  through the island's history and few feelings  

compare to coming face to face with phuket's  big buddha number 4. snifelsness peninsula  

iceland another country celebrated for its  natural beauty iceland is home to many wonderful  

geological features and few regions have as  much variety as schneifel's nest peninsula  

tours of the region will show you the distinct  kyokuvel mountain as well as many mineral springs  

set to have many health benefits and healing  properties and iceland is particularly famous  

for one more relaxing activity decompressing in  a sauna you definitely don't want to miss the  

chance to spend an hour in a real icelandic spa  whether that's a man-made one or part of the many  

geothermal pools unwinding in the water under the  northern lights is the perfect thing to do after  

you've spent a few days exploring the glaciers and  lava fields iceland is so well known for number 3

a destination for people craving r r ubud is a  town on the island that while not immune to the

major landmarks like lampu-yang temple known as  the gate to heaven the name being an indication
