North America

Shopping and sightseeing come together at the Magnificent Mile, a wide boulevard in North Chicago officially known as Michigan Avenue and the heart of the city. Visit North America

Africa

For a true sense of emptiness, a travel into the Dankalia region is the best option in Eritrea. Here, you will find endless stretches of barren landscape with very few tiny villages. Visit Africa

Asia

Of the fountains in the leafy city of Almaty, the zodiac fountain is probably the most remarkable. Cartoon-like statues of the twelve animals of the Kazakh zodiac surround a modest fountain. Visit Asia

Europe

The prime sight of Belgrade is undoubtedly Kalemegdan Citadel, which combines history and lots of park grounds with the best views over the city and the rivers Sava and Danube. Visit Europe

Oceania

More than just a symbol of Australia, Ayers Rock has a lot of stories and tales to offer, and mythical importance to the Aboriginal people. Visit Oceania

Central&South America

The bay itself is fantastic, but so is the hike to reach it. Added attraction: a hidden waterfall. Visit Central&South America

Antarctica

It is impossible to visit Point Wild and not try to imagine how the 22 men of Shackleton's expedition survived here for more than four months waiting for their rescue. Visit Antarctica

Surprise trip

Wonder where this is?
