The Isles of Scilly
Located just 28 miles off the coast of Cornwall, the Isles of Scilly are a miniature tropical paradise in the north Atlantic. There are five larger inhabited islands, and many more smaller ones that are home to a vast array of wildlife.
The British Museum
One of Britain's oldest and best loved museums, the British Museum houses a vast collection of artefacts, manuscripts and exhibitions dealing with just about everything. Perhaps it's most famous for being the (controversial) home of the Elgin Marbles from the Parthenon, but there's plenty of other things to see.
Schonbrunn Palace
One of Vienna's Imperial Palaces, and a UNESCO World Heritage site, Schonbrunn is more than just a grand palace. It also has beautifully laid out gardens and parks that are largely free to the public (although you have to pay for the Privy Garden and to go up to the top of the Gloriette).
Godrevy Beach
At the far end of the long sweep of beaches in Hayle, Godrevy is beloved of families, surfers, dog walkers and seal-spotters. It's also directly opposite the Godrevy Lighthouse - an inspiration for Virgina Woolf's To the Lighthouse.
The Eden Project
Eden
A great place to visit, so much to see and learn, I love it there

It depends on your point of view.
