Answer 2

I have traveled to many, many places and the real problem in answering your question is that there are just so many really great places to see and experience.  I will give you my top 2 favorites.

Number one has to be Angkor Wat.  This is a series of temples that cover about 100 square miles.  Each one is different and many are just spectacular.  Sunrise over Angkor is amazing and the ruined splendor of Ta Phrom is just stunning.  

Number two is in china and is reffered to as the Terra Cotta Soldiers although it si really the tomb of Emperor Qin s**+ Huang.  The building housing this place is bigger than many football stadiums.  Every statue is different and unique.  The men really come to life when you look at them and it just doesn't get much more interesting that that.  I actually got to meet Mr. Young who was the farmer that found the first statue while digging a well.  He could not speak english but was kind and signed my book about the site.  Very cool.  

I have been through Egypt, and many other Bucket list type places but these are my favorites.  If you do one thing in your life do this.  Take the first step on your first trip.  It won't be your last.

Pantai Cahaya Bulan(Light Moon Beach) at Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia.

Formerly known as the Beach of Passionate Love or Pantai Cinta Berahi, this is a picture post card beach. The name was then changed to the current name, which means the "Moonlight Beach". This lovely stretch of shimmering sand is perhaps Kelanian's most famous beach. Its warm golden sands and crystal blue waters amidst tall and graceful palms encourages one to just lay on the sand and bask in the sun. Fringed by swaying casuarinas and coconut palms, providing the ideal place for picnics, camping and relaxation. It is the perfect getaway for the world-weary.

The beach stretches to about 1.2km. Cahaya Bulan Beach is definately a croud puller during the weekends, popular among the local to bath under the sun and cherish the tranquility offered by the natural beauty of the coastal East Coast. The abundance of cultural and artistic shops decorating the path to Cahaya Bulan Beach adding to its charm and beauty to this stretch of beach.

Visitors can stop by the multitute of artifat shops while passing some scenic villages and discover some of Kelantan's rich heritage, including batik prints, songket, kites and copper-tooled handicrafts. Feel free to drop by and have an hands-on to understand the technicality of producing such an intricate artifacts as most of the outlets welcomes visitors.

Answer 6

A road trip to California last Spring Break.

It wasn't the cities we hit that made it interesting, but the people we met.

In San Diego, I was given a standing ovation for my "awesome" guitar hero skills at a bar by the beach.  Back then, nobody really knew about the game.  We met a tattoo artist that opened his own hookah lounge and let us try 4 different bowls for free.

In LA, we stayed at my friend's grandparent's house for almost 24 hours, just chatting away.

In Santa Barbara, we stayed at my friend's duplex, which was so moldy I thought I was going to die.  I was woken up at 3am by drunk skateboarders watching Tony Hawk videos.

In San Francisco, we met a hostess at a champagne bar that reserved for us a table the following Friday night.

Amazing.

Answer 7

Greece is my favorite country.  The history is so fascinating, the food is wonderful, the islands are gorgeous... Every island (and there are many) has something interesting, such as an old monastery, a sweet village, wonderful people...

You can hop a ferry and just meander to another island.  If it is off-season, there are plenty of places to stay.

Greece is extremely interesting for someone who appreciates history, as I do.  It's also a wonderful destination for someone who loves turquoise water and white sand beaches, or just sitting at an outdoor restaurant watching the people and the ocean.  

I have traveled extensively, but not yet to Thailand and Southeast Asia, nor to New Zealand, two places on my list.  

I'm not sure why you asked the question, but I recommend Lonely Planet as the best guidebook.  Their website is also very helpful.
