The miserable weather is making me think of holidays! Where is the most beautiful place you've been to on holiday? Mine is a draw between Hoi An in Vietnam and the Alps in the summer. Oh to be back at either places...!

The views at various points in Rio de Janeiro are also amazing! It's a beautiful city.

I love so many different places for so many different reasons and that's why travelling for me is something that just feeds my soul - I love it.

Very lucky to be from somewhere that is known for its amazing views - Donegal

Maldives. It was about 20 years ago before social media, so I didn’t really
know what to expect and it was breathtakingly beautiful.

Finnish Lapland in December was one of the most beautiful and magical places I have ever been. Also the Bornean rainforest.

Alaska, Denali National Park was stunning once the clouds cleared. For tropical locations - Sri Lanka definitely though the Maldives are lovely

I could never tire of Venice. Arriving at night and stepping out of that station... wow! And round every corner is a delight.

Certain low tide coves around cornwall, far from the honey pot spots and which require some leg work to access. They constantly astonish me.

Hebrides - big skies and beaches.

The older I get the more I see beauty closer to home.

Also New York City many years ago. I’m a graphic designer so all the fonts and design and architecture really was beautiful.

Peace Garden at Chalice Well, Glastonbury.

Has the most peaceful energy I've ever felt!

We've not been to many places, but Rovinj (Croatia) took my breath away. I felt like I was visiting Cittàgazze from His Dark Materials. Its only a 1/2 day place imo but worth visiting if within a couple of hours drive.

Where is the most beautiful place you've been to?

Northern lights in Finland (Levi) went with my ex and was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

Positano with my DH for our honeymoon was also beautiful.
