This small town is great for enjoying crisp mountain air, brisk walks, good food and cosy accommodation. The village is on an escarpment that has spectacular mountain scenery on both sides. Govetts Leap Lookout, Evans Lookout and Hargraves Lookout are high-elevation viewing platforms from where you can observe the natural wonder of this World Heritage area.

Witness the Neuschwanstein fairytale castle that inspired Disney's Sleeping Beauty Castle, as well as the Linderhof Palace on a magical day trip from Munich. Built by Germany's King Ludwig II on a rugged hill against a backdrop of Bavaria's lush and picturesque mountain scenery, the Schloss Neuschwanstein is a stunning piece of architecture, which one could literally spend hours staring at. The Linderhof Palace, the smallest of the three palaces associated with King Ludwig II, served as his primary residence for much of his life.

These fascinating tunnels were originally built during World War II in order to protect oil supplies from the Japanese bombings, though they were never used for that purpose. Today, two of the tunnels have been opened to the public and feature a collection of interesting photographs depicting life in Darwin during the war.

The iconic walls of Marrakesh, stretching over 12 km, are more a statement of aesthetic grandeur than a fortification for defence. Originally erected in the early 12th century by the city's Almoravid founders, the walls have undergone several expansions, including the notable addition of the Kasbah to the south and later extensions towards the northern districts. These walls offer an idyllic backdrop for romantic interludes, especially as dusk settles over the city. For those looking to explore further, caleches — traditional horse-drawn carts — are available for leisurely tours around the medina and the ramparts.
