6 Places To Visit Post-Corona
It is pretty hard to think about travel now and when all you can see around you is news about coronavirus. But everyone is craving to go on a vacation once the vaccine for this infectious virus is found. Here are 6 places to visit post-corona:
Sri Lanka
Golden beaches, wildlife-rich jungles, rolling tea plantations, and mist-shrouded mountains make Sri Lanka one of the best Asian countries to visit. Tourists marvel at the beauty and physical diversity of this island. The view from the top of Sri Lanka’s fourth highest peak, Adam’s peak, is known to be stunning. You can hike this world heritage site within 5–6 hours, depending on your degree of fitness.
You can also swim in the ocean with the world’s largest mammal i.e. blue whale. If you want to hit reset on your life, grab a shady spot at the largely untouched east coast beaches and soak up some vitamin D.
Panama
In spite of the hundreds of kilometers of coastline on both the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean, Panama is one of the top countries to visit in 2020. It is a narrow, little country packed with coffee farms, rainforests, beaches and basically all you could wish for if you’re looking for a tropical escapade. Panama ranks sixth on the Happy Planet Index, which means that the country is doing an excellent job at making sure its citizens “achieve long, happy, sustainable lives”. For wildlife enthusiasts, Panama is a paradisiacal place. Tourists have a chance of spotting exotic animals such as colourful quetzals, keel-billed toucans, ospreys, white-faced capuchins and tamarins.
Jordan
Float in the Dead Sea, visit Mt. Nebo and more on your trip to the land of epic adventures and lost cities. If you’re a solo backpacker who’s open to new experiences, we suggest you befriend the Bedouins. Bedouins are semi-nomadic city dwellers who traditionally inhabit remote communities, making their homes in goat-hair tents. Several campsites in Jordan offer a taste of the Bedouin lifestyle. In the day, take a tour of the sand dunes and pyramids from the back of a camel. By the evening, you can take a walk under the desert stars or learn a few traditional dance moves.
Indonesia
Often when people think of Indonesia, all that comes to mind is Bali. Comprising over 17,000 islands, there’s so much more to the country. Indonesia is home to more than 20% of the world’s coral reefs. There are many opportunities available for snorkeling and scuba diving for both beginner and experienced divers. Dating back to the 9th century, Borobudur — the largest Buddhist temple in the world is found in Java. One of the best times to visit the temple is early in the morning when you can catch the sunrise while standing at the top.
Egypt
Mummies, sphinxes, and tombs are all that come to mind when one mentions Egypt. But little do people know that there is much to this land of the Pharaohs that has been welcoming and bewitching travelers from around the world since forever! With classic monuments in deserts, charming hamlets near the Nile, expansive museums guarding the ancient history and artifacts, lofty pyramids, to its delicious food and vivid culture, this mysterious paradise is sure to give you one hell of a vacation! Some of its most renowned attractions include the Pyramids of Giza, the Great Sphinx, the Valley of the Kings, Egyptian Museum, and many more.
Oman
If your idea of a holiday is to traverse golden sand dunes, watch panoramas of start-strewn skies, climb challenging mountain ranges, and dive into the seas teeming with dolphins and turtles, then Omanis the place for you! This gem located on the Arabian Peninsula has everything you need to make your holiday an adventurous, culture-driven, and experience-rich affair that will remain etched in your memories forever! It is home to the Empty Quarter, the largest sand desert in the world that guarantees you your own Lawrence of Arabia adventure, but, with a guide! Taste sheer luxury by staying at the many opulent resorts and camps at the Sharqiya Sands. Indulge in adventures like camel-racing, horse riding, sand-skiing, dune-bashing, and shopping souks during your time here.
