3- Iguazu Falls, Argentina/Brazil border

One of the modern natural wonders of the world, this chain of mini waterfalls is one of the planet's most awe-inspiring sights. A visit is an awe-inspiring visceral experience, and the power and noise of the cascades – a chain of hundreds of waterfalls nearly 3km in extension – is something you won't forget.

2- Moraine Lake, Canada

Moraine Lake may only only half the size of its nearby neighbour Lake Louise, but it's even more scenic.

The setting of the surrounding majestic mountain peaks makes the scene almost surreal.
