Top 5 most populous megacities worldwide
The United Nations has released fresh data on the most populous cities in the world. Let's take a look at the top megacities by population.
Nusa Lembongan, Indonesia
A small island of Nusa Lembongan is not as famous among tourists as Bali though it's located a 30-minute boat ride from the well-known resort. However, it is for the best as on an island still retaining its individuality, a relaxing vacation without an influx of tourists awaits you.
The colorful and picturesque island will please you with prices: a massage costs $7 an hour, and a hearty dinner for four people - $50.
Lake Bled, Slovenia
A stunning landscape of the lake located at the foot of the Julian Alps is waiting for you. The lake is fed with hot springs, so in summer the water temperature is kept on average at 24°C. In the center of the lake, surrounded by mountains creating a special microclimate, there is an island with the pilgrimage church dedicated to the Assumption of Mary. The Bled Castle rises above the lake. In general, when you get there you will not be able to take your eyes off of the magnificence of natural beauty.
Seville, Spain
Founded by the Romans, Seville has a rich history, architecture and authentic culture. Three sites of the city are included in the UNESCO World Heritage List: the Alcazar Palace complex where Christopher Columbus was buried, Metropol Parasol, the largest wooden structure in the world, and Giralda Minaret, the largest Gothic building of Europe.
In Seville, you can see traditional Spanish flamenco dances and bullfighting.
Viñales, Cuba
According to experts, this city is a destination everyone should take the time to experience. Whimsical rock formations, preserved traces of primitive people, the world's best tobacco plantations, and beautiful views - that's what awaits you in Viñales.
The city is filled with music and dancing continuing all night long.
Sao Miguel, Portugal
It is an island, the largest of the Azores archipelago of volcanic origin. Sao Miguel is famous for its volcanic landscapes (the crater of Sete Cidades volcano and a double crater lake consisting of two lakes, green and blue, are worth seeing), flora, rich marine life including whales, and historical buildings.
Another visiting card of the island of Sao Miguel is Terra Nostra Park drowning in greenery.
Trollfjord, Norway
An excellent opportunity to see several places at once is a cruise in Scandinavia. You will enjoy an impressive northern nature of Trollfjord (one of the most picturesque Norwegian fjords, 2.5 km long) with steep cliffs. In some places, it is so narrow that passing by at the ferry it seems possible to touch the majestic cliffs. This place will not leave anyone indifferent.
Dakar, Senegal
Experts believe that Dakar will be the most popular west African hotspot in 2018 thanks to its great beaches for surfing, bright culture, and food. Nearby there is a lake in which because of the high salt content in the water only certain organisms can survive. They give the water a pink color.
Lake Baikal, Russia
Every year not only Russian tourists but also foreigners overcome huge distances to see the deepest lake in the world. Baikal is beautiful at any time of the year but in winter the view of the lake, covered with picturesque ice, literally bewitches.
Thanks to the activities of living organisms living in the lake the water is very poorly mineralized and close to distilled. That explains this high transparency.
Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland
Perhaps, every place in Switzerland is phenomenal. The village of Lauterbrunnen is located in one of the most beautiful valleys in the Alps, among steep cliffs and waterfalls. Lauterbrunnen is also called the Valley of Waterfalls. Just imagine, there are as many as 72 of them here! It is rumored that one of the most picturesque places in the country served as a prototype of the fairy world of elves in the famous film "The Lord of the Rings".
Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina
A picturesque city, located on both sides of the Neretva River, is one of the most diverse cities of Bosnia and Herzegovina by the ethnicity. A tourist who travels to Mostar will certainly notice eclecticism of distinctive styles and two cultures, Christian and Muslim, that coexist harmoniously.
And it becomes like a separate, different culture.
Two parts of the city are connected by the Old Bridge, built in the XVI century, which gave the name of the city.
