The best approach to find hidden gems is to ask locals and go exploring on your own. Because we have over 50 nationalities in our office at eDreams, we've asked around and gathered the best local advice from all across the world.
1. Dive into the blue lake at Jiuzhaigou National Park (China)
Take a look at this amazing 1375-meter-long crystal blue lake in China. It's tucked away in the Min Mountains near the Tibetan Plateau, a long cry from Beijing's bustling streets! In 1992, UNESCO designated the area as a World Heritage Site, which it deserved.
2. Swim in the Enchanting River in Surigao del Sur, Philippines
The Philippines is gradually showing its beauty one island at a time, with destinations such as Boracay and Palawan becoming increasingly popular. However, there are still more undiscovered locations to be explored. This fairytale-like river is hidden behind the rugged mountains of Surigao Del Sur, a small province in the Philippines. Dive into the enchanted river's caves without being bothered by crowds of tourists.
3. The Apostle Islands in Wisconsin, USA
This archipelago is a Wisconsin hidden gem. These 60-foot sandstone cliffs appear to be almost too perfect to be natural, but they are!
4. Snorkel the Aquarium in Rangiroa, French Polynesia
This long stretch of natural coral reef, full of colorful tropical fish, is one of the top snorkeling places in the world. With depths ranging from 1 to 4 meters, the aquarium is surrounded by healthy coral. To avoid the throng, there's a secret snorkeling site!
5. Rotorua Hot springs in Rotura, New Zealand
With erupting geysers and bubbling mud pools, Rotura is considered the world's most stunning geothermal wonderland. While you're relaxing, don't forget to take some time to learn about Maori culture on your side trips.
6. The inverted tower in Quinta de Regaleira, Portugal
This 27-foot-deep well is a magnificent sight that has been nicknamed an inverted tower. Located on a Portuguese estate in Sintra. The estate is as lovely on the outside as it is on the inside. This enigmatic location has visitors questioning if it's a well or an inverted tower. What are your thoughts?
7. Las Lajas Sanctuary in Ipiales, Colombia
This massive neo-gothic church can be seen on the Colombian-Ecuadorian border. It is said to have been built in the 1700s by a family who claimed to have seen the Virgin Mary in the sky. You won't find many travelers here because it's off the beaten path!
8. The Door to Hell in Derweze, Turkmenistan
This natural gas field, often known as "The Door to Hell" or "The Gateway to Hell," is unusual. When this cavern collapsed in 1971, geologists set it on fire to prevent the spread of methane gas, and it has been burning ever since. Since then, it has evolved into a one-of-a-kind destination.
9. Be on two continents at the same time, in Pingvallavatn Lake, Iceland
Have you ever thought about what it's like to be in two places at once? Then go to Pingvallavatn Lake in Iceland to get a feel for the place. You can swim between the rocks while submerged in the Atlantic Ocean, and you'll be swimming in both Europe and America!
10. Seegrotte in Hinterbrühl, Austria
This lake, which is located in Hinterbruhl, Austria, is Europe's largest subterranean lake. A 60-meter-long tunnel runs beneath the ground.
