Today, however, you can take a cable car or walk up the perilous staircase cut into the stone.


 14. Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia Located in southwest Bolivia, Salar de Uyuni is the world's largest salt flat, and while the term "salt flat" might not inspire much awe, the pictures and reviews tell a different story.

9. Ha Long Bay, Vietnam With thousands of islets and hidden coves, Ha Long Bay is famous for its large monolithic limestone islands rising formidably out of the ocean. 


8. Positano, Italy For years it was only a poor fishing village on the Italian coast, but then in 1953, John Steinbeck wrote these words of the region, Positano bites deep. It is a dream place that isn't quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone. Since then tourism has exploded.

While the tourist experience hasn't been shed in a good light in the past few years, and at certain points, it was downright dangerous, it should be noted that tourism is back on the rise due to growing confidence in safety in the area.
