Where's the prettiest place you ever visited?

I love the ocean and the beach, but I would still have to say my grandmother's house in western NC. It was just out side of Hendersonville, on the side of a mountain. When you got up in the morning you could stand on the porch and all around you was nothing but mountains shrouded in fog. It was so peaceful and quite.:)
 
Rural phillipines by the ocean where you can see at least 200 feet to the bottom of the bay and no one is around but natives. If your hungry you climb a tree and get either coconuts or mangos....
 
Switzerland.

We stayed at a place on one mountain that required a train to get us there. The farmers on the surrounding hillsides all have cows with bells of different tunes so they can tell when someone else's cow wanders over. At night in the distance you could hear all those little bells going off. Slept like a baby. The scenery was straight out of Sound of Music. Heaven for me will be a place like this.
 
Mt.Everest and the Himalayas, the Great Barrier Reef, the Amalfi Coast in Italy, some pacific islands... You can't really compare different types of places. There's lots of prettiness in the world... hehe :D
 
so many....hawaii, smoky mountains of tennesse, deserts of arizona/nevada, but there are many beautiful places...many are quite simple and unexpected, like someone said before. Maybe, your grandmother's house, or the lake by your house, etc. Stuff like this makes me very nostalgic.:bawling:

Sedona, Arizona


:) :) :)

I'll go with you here, too. Sedona is absolutely gorgeous.

I am still a huge fan of the smokey mountains, though....they are always beautiful.

Also...the Blue Ridge Parkway is a beautiful place in NC.
 
Hawaii, the big island. Not as commercialized as the rest of the Islands. Very beautiful, the volcanoes are incredible. We took a helicopter tour and you could feel the heat coming off them it was intense!

My grandparents used to have a house in Lake Toxaway. I think that was about 15 miles from there. I agree, every summer I would go up there and even when I was 13, it still felt so nice and peaceful compared to Florida.
 
Belize and Hawaii were both beautiful. But Lake Travis and the Concan(Texas Hill Country river) are the prettiest place I have been in the continental US.
 
Sandpoint ID, Gypsum CO, Sometset PA, Gadston AL.. there are sooo many.
 
Caba De Rojo Puerto Rico..
The cliffs there are spectacular..

Ponce, Puerto Rico..
"Gilligan's Island"
Got to be with a native to find this place..
Little outlets off of the Carribean, which makes great snorkeling
the water is only 4 foot deep and it moves very fast..
Very relaxing...:)

The Grand Canyon was the most incredible natural landscape I've ever experienced.

I haven't travelled to many places, but I DID go to boarding school in Arizona - and Arizona was so beautiful. The Grand Canyon was beautiful as was the red rock in Sedona!
 
Anybody have pics of Sedona, Az. I was thinking about moving to Az, even made a thread long time ago.


Wodin, if you do retire out there, give me an invite. I promise to push you around in your wheelchair. Is it a deal?
 
Sedona is BEAUTIFUL but I bet it's very expensive.

I lived in Arizona for three years and it's a very pretty state. I miss the cacti:bawling: :bawling:

Yes, it is a great place to live. The nice thing about Phoenix is that you have year round good weather, but can drive two hours in the winter and have snow, skiing, plenty of elk, and mountains. Then if you like to golf, which I do, you can play year round as well.

Sedona isn't cheap, but there are other options like Payson, Cottonwood, Jerome, Williams, even Flagstaff. I'll never move back to the midwest unless I absolutely have to.

I lived in Scottsdale:D

Nice.

Right now they are having a major problem with rats so I'm not sure I would want to be there, but overall it is beautiful.


Rats LOL.. Did they get loose on all the golf courses;)

I liked North Scottsdale up by the Boulders. I lived close to the Princess and in Ahwatukee:D
 
Apparently you can see them running along the telephone wires...Yuck. I don't know too much about what they are doing about it since I live in the far east valley, but gross.

The Boulders is awesome. I've had dinner and drinks up there. Ahwatukee is nice too.

Why did you leave?
 
Overseas........Rijeka, Croatia. Stateside..........Cloud Croft New Mexico
 
i lived in the philippines for 11 years, and the most beautiful island that i visited there was Boracay, crystal blue waters where you can see tropical fish swimming everywhere, chilled coconuts-drink the milk right out of the shell, oh so beautiful....
then there's where i live now, beautiful white beaches and blue water, it's just after the spring breakers leave when it's ugly-beer cans and cigarette butts everywhere

I actually had lunch with a friend from Croatia.... I had no idea it was a pretty place... hmm.

If you ever get a chance to go you should. Its on the Western coast of Croatia on the Mediteranean sea. The water is crystal clear and the weather is nice year round. The best part is before you get there you go through the mountains, so when I was there in the winter the mountains were covered in snow, then we drove through a tunnel and on the other end it was clear skies, sunny and the temp was 70 degrees. It was pretty wierd, like the Twilight Zone, but in a cool way. Split Croatia is 2nd runner up, it has lots of great ruins and Zagreb is #3. Croatia is a BEAUTIFUL country, it's just a shame about the war.

I've been to Hendersonville before. South Hill Virginia to Hendersonville and in between was pretty cool. I like the DownEast part of Maine or Hawaii.....pretty nice to be



 
Connemara, Ireland and the costa del sol in spain...oh! and scotland, too...I think I have some nice pics on here of connemara and the king's seat in edinburgh, if anyone would like to post them for me. :)
