Ha Long Bay, which is home to 1,969 islets of hulking limestone and deep, green waters, was recognized twice by the UNESCO as a World Natural Heritage. It has been named one of the seven natural wonders of the world.

In addition to Ha Long Bay, the other most beautiful places were located in various countries and territories around the world, including Bwindi Impenetrable Forest (Uganda), Samburu (Kenya), Mount Toubkal (Morocco), El Nido (the Philippines), Rotorua (New Zealand), Kata Tjuta (Australia), and the Maldives.
