The narrow-gauge railway is Sweden’s longest historical treasure. The Hultsfred-Västervik line was finished in 1879 and was in service until 1984. During the summertime, you can once again experience the sensation of riding the 50s-style orange-n-gold railcars. A trip that stretches over 70km, from the forests of Småland in the west, past lakes, through small communities and agricultural areas out to the archipelago in the east.

Bonairean landscapes are brimming with vibrant flamingos, the island being one of the world's only four breeding grounds for the pink-hued birds — who get their iconic colour from the brine shrimp in the water. Bonaire's go-to place for birdwatching is Pekelmeer Lake, which is located near the salt pans. It's worth hiring a car to explore the area, but don't forget to bring your binoculars as you can only observe the flamingos from a distance. If you are headed elsewhere, both Goto Lake (Goto Meer) and Lac Bay give you spectacular views of the birds.

The bridge itself might not be the city's main landmark, but the events that unfolded here almost a century ago in 1914 led to the beginning of WWI. See the exact location where Franz Ferdinand (the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne) and his wife Sofia were assassinated on that decisive day.

The small city of Al Bukayriyah is considered an up-and-coming tourist destination in Al-Qassim. Take a short trip from Buraidah to discover this hidden gem.

Kids will love the green lawn and the playground at Medhmar Park, while architecture fans should see the square minarets Az Zahraa Grand Mosque and Maqsorat Alrajhi (the ancestral home of the Alrajhi family).
