Join a Tongatapu Island Tour to see the Royal Palace, Royal Tombs, the blowholes, flying foxes and, on the western side of the island, the enthralling Ha’amonga Trilithon, the Stonehenge of the South Pacific and the ancient capital of Mu’a with its fascinating Terrace Tombs on the East.

An embodiment of the iconic Greek white-with-a-blue-dome, postcard-ready look that dominates postcards, this structure is set atop a high hill and dates back to the 18th century.

The R.C. Harris Water Treatment Plant is a striking art deco facility on the Toronto lakefront, operating since 1941. Often called the “Palace of Purification,” it supplies nearly half of the city’s drinking water. The architecture is grand and meticulously preserved, with marble walls, bronze fixtures, and cavernous interior halls. The plant has served as a filming location for numerous movies and television shows, often depicted as a dramatic institutional or sinister headquarters. While the buildings are typically closed to the public, the grounds remain accessible year-round. Visitors can stroll the landscaped areas, enjoy views of Lake Ontario, or relax near the beach. The site offers a quiet escape with a timeless atmosphere, ideal for walking, picnicking, or simply pausing by the water.

The shape of the shoreline near the village of Vathi makes its waters appear a stunning crystal-blue color. In and around the village, see the whimsical rock formations of the Drakos Cave, the remains of an ancient Minoan settlement at their entrance, and the lost lake of Chameni Limni.
