There are obviously the essential ones like Paris, London, the South Seas, the Caribbean. But there are places that for their originality, their little known but sometimes amazing beauty are turning into trendy destinations. In particular, there are some tourist destinations that have recently begun to attract the attention of travelers, as reported by Tripadvisor.

Kaliningrad, Russia

A tiny offshoot of Russia between Lithuania and Poland on the Baltic Sea, Kaliningrad was founded by the Teutonic Knights in the 13th century and then took the name of Königsberg, which it kept until after World War II. The city took on a new name, was repopulated by Russians, and incorporated into the Soviet Union. It is still famous today for the production of amber, with the largest amber mine in the world present along the coast. The 14th-century Königsberg Cathedral is one of the main attractions.

Saranda, Albania 

In a few years, all sea lovers you know will be talking about this place: a beautiful stretch of white sand coast and vast olive groves, located on the Ionian Sea in front of the famous Greek island of Corfu.

Beirut, Lebanon

Surprisingly in 3rd place, we find Beirut, despite the devastation and massacre of last August: the city, which for its beauty and opulence was called the Paris of the Middle East, offers beautiful beaches, lukewarm, a certain air of freedom and carefree that still makes the capital of Lebanon a fascinating destination.

Luxor, Egypt 

One of the most fantastic places in Egypt, the place where one understands better than any other. If you are planning a trip to Egypt, it is best to consider the risks and monitor government travel warnings.

Naoussa, Greece 

Despite not being among the largest islands in the Aegean Sea, Paros is a corner of paradise that deserves a prominent place on the list of places to visit. Visitors stay mainly in Naoussa, the largest town on the island where they can venture into the maze of streets, discover shops full of typical products, taste excellent freshly caught fish in the bars by the sea and enjoy the dream scene of the islands. Greek.

Rügen Island, Mecklenburg - West Pomerania 

Welcome to the largest German island, with a myriad of opportunities for lovers of outdoor adventures, from sandy coasts to steep chalk cliffs. It has been a holiday resort since 1818 and is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Germany. There is something for everyone: from two national parks to a former royal residence and a castle on the beach. If sunbathing is your main focus, Binz is the ideal destination.

Phu Quoc Island, Kien Giang 

A tropical paradise, one of the most beautiful places in Vietnam, with its crystal clear beaches and fishing villages. For those looking for them, there is no shortage of adventures, from motorbike excursions along the rough roads to kayaking to diving in the coral reef, or simply to a full-scale fish meal followed by a cocktail on the beach. Once upon a time only backpackers used to go here, today tourism has become more sophisticated and you can also choose five-star villages or rustic family bungalows.

Monopoli, Italy 

A port city of Apulia, historical and functional in equal parts, Monopoli impresses the visitor with medieval churches and castles overlooking the Adriatic. It's also every painter's dream, with deep blue fishing boats adding a splash of color to the whitewashed harbor walls.

La Paz, Mexico 

Capital of Baja California Sur, La Paz is mostly used as a jumping-off point for Cabo San Lucas beach resorts. However, its vintage charm and pleasant waterfront, dotted with artworks and international restaurants overlooking the gray whale-inhabited waters, are reasons enough to stop here for a few days.

Curaçao

Curacao has always been a favorite destination for diving enthusiasts. If you are looking for an adrenaline-pumping dive or, simply, a quiet snorkeling trip, you will find something for your teeth. The beaches are, of course, another strong attraction: the dusty sand and placid waters are perfect for children. And don't miss Willemstad, the capital of Curacao: its charming pastel-colored buildings and equally picturesque past have earned it the recognition of a UNESCO World Heritage City.
