Where WOULD you go back to?

[Lanique]

On the back of the other thread, which is really interesting, about places you wouldn't want to go back to, either because it was unpleasant or because you saw it all while there, I thought it would be interesting to know where people WOULD go back to.

I'll start:

New Zealand - beautiful, varied scenery around every corner. We only did parts of the South Island and I'd love to see more. Three and a half weeks were not enough!

Edinburgh - we do go back there regularly, it is a beautiful city with an amazing vibe.

Berlin - I loved it and wouldn't mind revisiting one day.

Finland
Newcastle on Tyne
Liverpool
York
NYC
Florida
Canada
Lots of European places Italy Greece

Las Vegas!

Estonia
Iceland
Vienna
Lewis and Harris

Basically everywhere I've ever been lol. Only 2 countries I've been to that i wouldn't go back to (but won't mention as it's not this the thread for it).

Top 2 that stood out were Italy and Japan... Very different obviously but stand out in their own ways.

Kruger Park
Garden Route
Antwerp
Bath
Slovenia
Copenhagen

And always Japan!

Paris, St Michel-en-Greve in Brittany, the eastern side of the Cotentin peninsula in Normandy.

Apple Cross in Scotland.. although Scotland itself is also stunning.

Manchester
Liverpool
Edinburgh
Sri Lanka
Sitges
Most of the smaller Greek islands

Corsica
New York
Florida
Canada
Lake District (western side, much quieter)
New Forest (we go every year normally. This is the first year in a decade we've not been :()
Snowdonia

And always Japan!

Definitely Japan, it's incredible.

Galicia in Northern Spain (so beautiful, such incredible food and culture, so cheap!)
Patagonia (most beautiful place I’ve ever been)
San Francisco
Lake Como
Galway

I've thought of a couple of others:

Cumbria - the Lake District or even better the Eden Valley. We go there most years. I know the Lakes can get crowded but we tend to steer away from the more 'twee' tourist traps where possible.

South West coast of Ireland - we stayed on the coast near Skibbereen, it was beautiful and how Cornwall probably was before the tourists and second home owners took over!

Yes, Northern Spain is beautiful.

Love a weekend in London.
Croatia, beautiful country.
Paris
Crete
Rhodes
Corfu
Thailand
Got all these planned in for a return visit

Krakow - like Prague used to be before the stag/hen parties discovered it.

Interlaken, Switzerland - beautiful countryside, very peaceful.

Egypt - holidayed there every year with DH in the early 2000s and loved it. Relatively cheap, 100% reliable sun, amazing diving, great food and so much to explore. I would love to take my kids but just don’t feel that it’s safe enough yet.

Puerto Mogan, Gran Canaria - got a cheap deal and stayed in one of the fairly trashy resorts but took a half hour bus ride every day to this beautiful harbour - real character, lovely beach and great restaurants.

Andaman Islands but a different island.
Maldives - went just before lockdown and was astonished. Completely more beautiful than I had thought and wonderful marine life etc.
Cadiz Seville Ibiza Formentera Valencia and a lot of other places in Spain.
Sicily and some places Deep South Calabria.
Peloponnese and some Greek islands
Croatia
South India - Kalamata Kerala Chennai Pondicherry
Colorado
Cornwall

U.K. has too many to list - but we are likely to go back anyway.
Favourites are
Newlands and Borrowdale
St David’s
Harrogate
Edinburgh
Bradford on Avon
Anglesey
Snape and Suffolk coast
Ventnor
Cowes
Dartmouth
Dartmoor
Salcombe

Istanbul....feels like my second home
Japan... Still so many places to explore
Khiva (Uzbekistan), only had a brief visit when working over there and would love to go again,
Oman, the people are so friendly and it's just lovely (or at least it was several years ago).

Thailand
Borneo
Paris
Crete
Switzerland
Langkawi

In fact, pretty much everywhere I've been I've appreciated in one way or another, apart from a few English seaside towns.

Rome - it's called the Eternal City for a reason...

The Swiss and/or Austrian Alps. Nothing beats skiing, and nothing will definitely ever beat skiing in the Alps. (Disclaimer: haven't skied in France.)

I am so, so lucky to live in London, so no need to go back

Loads of places

Caribbean
US
Canaries
South of France
Italy
Malta

I could write a very long list but that's my starters

Lanzarote such a lovely chilled vibe
Edinburgh
Hull - we had a great time

Iceland!!
Australia!!
But to be honest, most places I have been - I do (did...) love travelling and exploring places, and you see so much more second time around.

Berlin

Uzès and the area around Pont du Gard in France

Achensee and Innsbruck in Austria keep drawing me back.

Sifnos in Greece

Singapore

The Blue Mountains

Krakow

The Scottish Highlands

Dorset

Slovenia, especially Lake Bohinj.
