1. Palau
 |
| The Rock Islands of Palau |
I'm often asked where do you most want to go, my usual reply is Palau. Often the respose is a blank face and a the awkward question......where was that again? It's an island chain that you could find on a map by drawing a line north from New Guinea and a line east from the Philippines. "Oh", is the usual reply. "Which country is that in?". "Palau is in Palau" I say abruptly. The conversation tends to end there.
Why you shouldn’t go there: It's so out of the way that getting there is exceedingly expensive!
2: Jamestown, St Helena.
| The Capital of St Helena, Jamestown |
Why you shouldn't go there: It's almost impossible to get there!
3: Tristan Da Cunha
 |
| The Island of Tristan da Cunha seen from above |
Another British dependency in the South Atlantic. Tristan da Cunha is a great big volcano which, for some reason, a few hundred people live upon. I say for some reason, I'd love to live there, but I'm not allowed. Because its such a great place to live, they don't allow outsiders to emigrate there!
Why you shouldn't go there: The people there have such a great life, do you really want to ruin it for them?
4: Balls Pyramid
 |
| Balls Pyramid, Australia |
Why you shouldn't go there: How would you get off the boat?
5: St Kilda Island
| The Abandoned Island of St Kilda, a remote outpost of the British Isles |
Far from the esplanade of St Kilda in Melbourne. The far more windswept original lurks in the North Atlantic, far away from the Scottish coast. It's inhabitants were all evacuated to the mainland due to a storm decades ago and never returned.
Why you shouldn’t go there: It's cold and windy.
6: Kerguelen
 |
| Kerguelen, French Southern and Antarctic Territories |
Why you shoulden't go there: It's freezing and almost impossible to get there. To make matters worse, the only people there are French!
7: Lhuntse
| Lhuntse, Bhutan |
Why you shouldn't go there: Bhutan will only let you in if they want you. Forget being a tourist in Bhutan.
8: Lake Baikal
| Lake Baikal, Russia |
Lake Baikal is the worlds deepest lake containing 1/5 of all the planet's fresh water.
Why you shouldn't go there: It's bloody freezing!
9: Kimbe Bay
 |
| Kimbe Bay, New Britain, Papua New Guinea |
Why you shouldn't go there: Papua New Guinea is one of the worlds most dangerous countries. Although, actually, most of PNG is fine. It's just places like Port Moresby which give the rest of the country a bad reputation.
10: Gilan
 |
| The Rainforests of Gilan Province, Iran |
Yep, this is a rainforest in Iran! Amazing huh?
Why you shouldn’t go there: Iran is run by nutcases.Which isn't totally true either. In fact, I would feel safe visiting Iran.
There you go, these are 10 amazing places that I bet you didn’t know existed. If you did, well done, have you been to any of these places? Have you got a few more to add? Please leave a comment!

Awesome places, Kimbe Bay looks really beautiful..
I love this anti-travel list response to all the bloggers who think generic formats create good content.
And nice list of cool places I'll probably never see in person.
I want to visit Palau too because I love beaches and diving underwater to sea the beauty down there.
Have heard of most of them, but just wasted an hour this afternoon checking out websites about Tristan da Cunha. Hard to get to, need special permission from the local people, almost no accommodation. What a fantastic place.
Well what is the cost to visit them all? yosemite national park
I imagine that if you really want to visit all of them, you'd destroy your life savings.
Miss that place so much! Haven’t been back, but one day would love to!hershey park.
I want to clarify something here. There are parts of Papua New Guinea where crime is rampant but that should not define the whole country....this is like any other third world nation. Visit places like the PNG islands New Island,West New Britain, East New Britain, Solomon Islands, and coastal areas like Tufi and Milne Bay. It is worth your every dime and time!!
Sue, I think you're right, I shall edit accordingly. Thanks for your comment! :D
A lot of us are still unaware of the recent development of the Blank ATM card.. An ATM card that can change your financial status within few days. With this Blank ATM card, you can withdraw between $1000-$10,000 daily from any ATM machine in the world. There is no risk of getting caught by any form of security if you followed the instructions properly. The Blank ATM card is also sophisticated due to the fact that the card has its own security making your transaction very safe and untraceable.
