The natural thermal pools of Pamukkale undoubtedly put the most magnificent infinity pools to shame. The name of the city itself translates to ‘cotton castle’, with its pure white travertine spas flowing with mineral hot springs are open for all to take a dip in! These calcite bathing pools overlook the city of Denizli and are surrounded by picturesque snow and beautiful waterfalls. The view at sunset paired with the most relaxing open spa cannot be missed. This view may look familiar as it where Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif filmed the video for “Tu Jaane Na” from the movie Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani.

Pro-Tip: Pamukkale also possesses the majestic ruins of the city of Hierapolis, the ancient Roman spa city. A day trip is surely a treat for all the history avids out there.

A sight you cannot afford to miss out on are the northern lights, also known as ‘Aurora Borealis’. They’re certainly a blessing sent from the heavens. But scientifically, this phenomenon occurs when the charged particles from the sun collide with the upper atmosphere of the earth to give us such a breathtaking view. This celestial ballet of green, blue, pink and violet lights can be best viewed from northern Scandinavia ‘The Northern Lights Belt’ such as Norway, Scotland, Finland and Iceland.

Pro-Tip: The best time to catch the northern lights in all their glory is in winter i.e. October to April. From cozy cabins to igloos, you have a variety of options to choose from as far as stays are concerned.

Just a few hours to the west of Melbourne lies The Great Ocean Road, which is one of the most spectacular coastal drives you can ever go from. This 243-kilometer stretch has it all -- from the 12 Apostle rocks to pristine beaches, vintage scenic stops and the infamous seaside town of Lorne. The road is filled with eucalyptus trees on the way, which gives you the chance to spot the cuddliest koalas alongside the Kennett River Koala Walk.
