We all need a vacation once in a while – it’s the perfect way to recharge our batteries.
And though international travel has been up in the air recently (no pun intended), it doesn’t hurt to have your sights set on your next destination.
There are some incredible places in the world that stand out. If you’re planning your next big get away, check out these seven destinations that should jump right to the top of your list.
Lisbon (pictured)
One of Europe’s hidden gems, Lisbon is often side stepped by tourists in favor of the Algarve. However, Portugal’s capital should never be overlooked.
This beautiful city is steeped in historical architecture, from Jerónimo’s Monastery to Belém Tower. And if you fancy something a little more modern to visit? You should check out the Museum of Art, Architecture, and Technology, or view the amazing marine life at the Lisbon Oceanarium.
It can be easy to fall in love with Lisbon, but it’s okay because Property Lisbon are experts at finding the perfect home for visitors that want to make their trip permanent!
Singapore
Singapore has seen an expansive growth over the last few decades to become one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
As one of the region’s central travel hubs, you may even have had a layover there on your way to Australia. But this Republic is so good that deserves to be your next holiday destination, and not just a stop along the way.
Visit the stunning Gardens by the Bay and shop your way down the famous Orchard Road.
Switzerland
Not just for chocolate lovers, Switzerland is one of Europe’s best destinations for holiday-makers the world over.
Whether you’re an eager skier or fancy a trip to the highest train station in Europe, you’ll be able to enjoy the perfect getaway.
If you’re led by your taste buds when you travel, then why not go wine tasting in Vaud or learn how to make cheese in Gruyères?
Maldives
For those who prefer the more laid-back approach, nothing compares to the Maldives for a beach holiday.
Made up of hundreds of tiny islands, most of which are their own resorts, you’ll experience luxury like no other.
And the photos don’t lie – the sand really is that white and ocean really is that blue.
New York City
If you like a city break, New York is the ultimate destination for you. This iconic urban jungle is so immense that even with several trips, you’ll always find something new to experience.
Go at Christmas time and visit the enormous tree at Rockefeller Plaza, or venture in Autumn and watch as Central Park turns red and orange as the leaves change.
From shops, to museums, to skyscrapers, you’ll be sure to have the trip of a lifetime.
Sydney
While not the capital of Australia, it’s so synonymous with the country that it’s often mistakenly regarded as such.
If you’re not too scared of heights, then brave the walk over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Alternatively, if you’d rather keep your feet firmly on the ground then check out a performance at the Opera House.
As a bustling metropolis, Sydney can get busy pretty quickly, take advantage of the early morning quite for a stroll along the harbour side to Mrs Macquarie’s Chair if you want a great photo opportunity.
Venice
With a sprawling canal system, the best way to navigate this beautiful Italian city is by boat.
If you don’t mind the crowds then plan your visit to coincide with the carnival and see the incredible range of Venetian masks… be sure to pick some up as souvenirs for your friends and family!
