7. [b]Meteora in Greece [/b]is a literal portrait of beauty and wonder which has remained away from the tourist radar so far. This amazing place had to be listed among the 10 wonders of the world for its picturesque beauty and mesmerizing landscapes. Located in Thessaly, Meteora is one of the largest and popular monasteries in the Eastern Orthodox faith. The place basically has six monasteries that are built on the top of sandstone rocks that protrude above the trees, high into the sky. The place is thus rightly named as ‘Meteora’ which means ‘middle of the sky’. Believed to be a UNESCO world heritage site, this place has somehow remained secluded from tourists. So, pack your bags and head out guys before it becomes crowded!

5. This awe-inducing structure, the Library of Celsus, is yet another amazing place listed under the top ten wonders of the world apart from the seven that we are familiar with. Looking at this structure, no one would believe it is a library, isn’t it? Yes, the structure has been destroyed by a natural phenomenon but the remains still make it a beautiful place, enough to become a tourist attraction. And, let me tell you, the place is actually a graveyard that has Celsus been buried in a crypt beneath the library for hundreds of years now. Did that just give some food to the adventurer in you?

3. Although the picture is enough to captivate the attention of anyone, the Red Beach in Panjin, China is nothing like a beach. Typically, a beach is imagined as a far-reaching stretch of water accompanied by sand and the Red Beach surely depicts nothing of that sort. The place is basically formed from Sueda which is a seaweed that grows during the month of spring and changes color from green to maroon in summers and autumn respectively. Not the entire beach is open for tourists but you can still visit the permissible area between the months of September to November.

And finally, the best for the last

1. Ever wondered if a well could get listed as one of the wonders of the world? Well, the Enchanted Well at Chapada Diamantina National Park in Brazil will convince you that even wells can be beautiful and nothing like you can imagine! This beautiful and amazing place is not actually a well but a lake or a giant hollow pool that is 100 feet deep. It is best known for its crystal clear water that can even help you see the rocks and tree trunks that lie to the bottom of it. If you are planning to visit this mind-blowing amazing place, let me tell you that you can get the best view of this place when sunlight falls on the water through a small opening, leaving around a mesmerizing blue reflection.

So how many of you packed your bags?

11. Nigeria

A nation bustling with energy, enthusiasm and filled with the permanent "180' million people from various ethnicities and belonging to different faiths. The beautifully black country has managed to stay at the forefront of tactical innuendoes and sarcasms. Pls enjoy viewing some shots of the politically infested state
