The northern province of Quang Binh is named among world’s most beautiful places by Travel+Leisure

Accordingly, their list covered a range of magnificent destinations across Europe, Asia, and Africa, all of which see aspects such as nature, culture, and architecture work together to provide rare experiences that travelers simply can’t find anywhere else.

“From tropical escapes in Vietnam and Thailand to cultural melting pots like Italy and India, get ready to travel to some of the world’s most beautiful places – the ones that have stolen our hearts, and are waiting to steal yours,” the editors said in Travel+Leisure’s article.

Veronica Inveen, managing editor of T+L Southeast Asia Hong Kong & Macau, shared that she is impressed by Quang Binh due to its reputation as a beautiful Vietnamese locality which allows visitors to get lost in its caves, rivers, and streams.

“The undulating mountains and lush greenery make Quang Binh a haven, promising an escape to untouched nature. Dong Hoi, the capital, is an example of how the locals embrace nature, and it can be experienced through dishes like Snakehead Gruel Fish, Eel Vermicelli and Banh Beo,” the editor noted.

Inveen stressed that Phong Nha, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in particular makes Quang Binh special.

“You can find the largest cave in the world hidden away in the dense forest and meandering landscape of Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park. The destination is perfect for thrill junkies looking to enjoy kayaking, spelunking, hiking, and camping,” she concluded.

Rounding off the top 13 list were the Giant’s Causeway of Northern Ireland, Meghalaya of India, Cape Town of South Africa, Krabi of Thailand, Hallstatt of Austria, Kumarakom of India, Wanaka of New Zealand, Edinburgh of the UK, Sikkim of India, Rome of Italy, Promthep Cape of Thailand, and Darjeeling of India.
