Dead Sea, Jordan

Visiting the Dead Sea is a surreal experience, transporting you to a unique environment under the desert sun and mineral-rich air. Its high salt content can keep you afloat without the need to swim, in a relaxing, almost magical feeling of weightlessness. Nature provides a natural spa, as the mineral-rich mud at the bottom of the sea refreshes and softens the skin.

 

 

Mangya Emerald Lake, China

Located a few minutes from Huatugou in central China, it is a mysterious and beautiful place. The Mangya Emerald pools, formed by the reflection of light through the lake’s minerals, offer an original spectacle. The variety of emerald tones and the sharp white lines of the shore create an atmosphere of mystery and wonder.

 

 

Étretat and the Albatre Coast, France

Étretat is a seaside resort on the Albatre coast, where miles of cliffs rise more than 328-ft. above sea level in a dreamlike landscape and fairytale formations. A natural arch plunging into the sea stands out, creating a panorama of almost ethereal beauty, with contrasts of white and blue that give the impression of a living painting.

 

 

Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania

Conquering Africa’s highest peak in Kilimanjaro National Park is a soul-stirring experience. At 19,330 ft. above sea level, the landscape reveals vast plains inhabited by elephants, lions and buffalo. Once at the summit, you are enveloped in a mixture of awe and humility, surrounded by the silence of three dormant volcanoes: Shira, Mawenzi and Kibo.
