High above the city on Cidneo Hill, the castle was built between the 13th and 16th centuries. There are a number of museums up here, and the views over the city and the Brescia plain are great – well worth the effort of the climb up here!

Explore the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary in Ubud, where more than a thousand long-tailed macaques roam the paths like they own the place (because honestly, they kind of do). It’s not just monkeys, though—the forest is full of towering trees, mossy temples, and stone statues slowly being taken over by roots and vines. Just keep your belongings zipped up, as the monkeys will try to snatch anything they think looks interesting.

Leipzig's Botanical Garden, established in 1542, is the oldest in Germany. It houses over 7,000 plant species, including special collections in its greenhouses and a sensory garden, alongside a popular butterfly house. The garden is open for visitors every day, free of charge. Stop by for a serene moment in the city.

The Fremont Street Experience is a highly successful attempt to draw the millions of visitors back to the downtown area. The domed-canopy 90 feet (27,5 meters) above the street was constructed along five city blocks, lined with some of the oldest casinos in Las Vegas. Every evening from sundown to midnight, the canopy becomes a giant screen showing high resolution images accompanied by concert-quality sound. At the top of each hour, visitors pour into the streets, looking skyward in anticipation of one of the six different shows lasting six to nine minutes.
