TIME Magazine Reveals its List of the World’s Most Amazing Places to Visit in 2018!

Adventure is a word that is synonymous with man’s essence. From time immemorial, humans have traversed the landscape in search for greener pastures and a better life. Journeys could take days, if not years before one arrived at their destination.

Today, the dynamics of travel have changed. Journeys across thousands of miles that took months can now be completed in a matter of hours. If that’s not enough, travel in the 21st Century takes place for two distinct purposes. Either for business or for leisure.

Whatever the reason, one can certainly agree with the fact that there are some places on this earth that are simply heaven sent!

Bearing this in mind, Time magazine recently released the greatest places on earth to visit in 2018. So without further ado, let’s go through the list, shall we?

The world is a beautiful place with a lot of spectacular areas to visit

Tianjin, China- Tianjin Binhai Library

Since it’s opening in October last year, the library has an authentic design based on a futuristic setting. Additionally, the library has a structural spherical auditorium, sitting on 33,700 square meters.

Bay Lake Florida- Pandora, The World of Avatar

Based in Orlando, this 12-acre park has taken over six years to be constructed. Interestingly, the park was set in an area that was not revealed in the film.
