Lonely Planet Trips
Here are some travel destinations by Lonely Planet. Reading them, you’ll be in a flash.
Bhutan
The Kingdom of Bhutan, located on the Silk Road in South Asia, claimed the No. 1 spot partly for its
majestic beauty and because it had become the first fully organic nation by 2020. The kingdom has lush
subtropical plains in the south and sub-alpine Himalayan mountains in the north, which include Gangkhar
Puensum, Bhutan’s highest peak and is believed to be the highest unclimbed mountain in the world.
North Macedonia
If you want an alternative to Europe's more popular travel spots, North Macedonia could be for you. Its
mountains and their trails are “blissfully quiet” and the locals are “unfailingly helpful” according to Lonely Planet.
Among its destinations is Ohrid, a charming, old town dotted with medieval ruins and churches, lined with
cobblestone streets, and overlooking Lake Ohrid.
Eswatini
The kingdom offers multitudinous climate and topography differences, and is known for its wide varieties of
wild animals, which include more than 500 bird species and 107 mammal species. The nation has seven nature
reserves, four frontier conservation areas and three wildlife reserves.
Costa Rica
Costa Rica is beloved for many reasons, from its coffee to its epic surfing. It’s also notable for its reliance on
green energy sources. In fact, 90% of its energy is created by regenerative sources such as wind and hydro. It is
also one of the world’s most biodiverse countries — home to half a million species. Of course, no trip to Costa
Rica is complete without a visit to the Sloth Sanctuary.
