Lake Retba, Senegal
Just 13 miles northeast of Dakar, Senegal, lies an oddly colored lake pinched off from the Atlantic Ocean. Lake Retba (also known as Lac Rose) is only about 1.1 sq. mi. big and is separated from the Atlantic Ocean by a couple of sand dunes. What makes it stand out is its odd color.
The lake’s average salinity is about 40% (400 grams of dissolved salts per 1 liter), making more than 10 times more saline than most oceans, whose salinity is on average 3.5% (35 grams per 1 liter). During the dry season, higher evaporation rates result in salinity much higher than the Dead Sea’s.
Tianzi Mountains, China
Tianzi Mountain is located in Zhangjiajie in the Hunan Province of China. Tianzi Mountain provides stunning views of peaks, which rise one after another. It is known as 'the Monarch of the Peak Forest'. It covers an area of about 16,550 acres, and the highest peak is about 4,140 feet above the sea level.
Santorini, Greece
Santorini is an island in the southern Aegean Sea, about 120 miles southeast of Greece's mainland. It is the largest island of a small, circular archipelago which bears the same name and is the remnant of a volcanic caldera.
Santorini is essentially what remains after an enormous volcanic eruption that destroyed the earliest settlements on a formerly single island, and created the current geological caldera.
Santorini was ranked world's top island for many other magazines and travel sites, including the Travel+Leisure Magazine, the BBC, as well as the US News.
