The ancient Incan city of Machu Picchu is one of the great wonders in the world, It is relatively comparable to the pyramids of Egypt, the Great Wall of China, Angkor Wat in Cambodia and the Taj Mahal in India. The best month to visit this place is between months of December and April because there are less people due to the wet season. Moreover, the view from the top of the mountain is beautiful whether it is shrouded with fog or clear.

2. Lago de Atitlan, Guatamela

This is a historical place because its origin is from an enormous volcanic eruption about 84,000 years ago, and until now, it is still ringed with active volcanoes. The Lago de Attitlan is the deepest lake in Central America. And what makes this place amazing is its crystal-blue waters that reflects the stunning cloud formation above which is truly a very unforgettable sight.

3. Iguazu Falls, Argentina and Brazil

Iguazu Falls is one of the world's most incredible waterfalls that really deserves your attention. Eleanor Roosevelt upon seeing the falls for the first time was quoted to have said, "Poor Niagara!"

The 269-foot drop at Iguazu falls mark the border between Argentina and Brazil. Meanwhile, this falls is the second-largest waterfall in the world following Victoria Falls in Zambia and Zimbabwe.

4. The Lost City in Colombia

Colombia's own lost city was built 1,000 years ago by the Tayrona people. This is older than the Machu Picchu. The Tayrona people built the city as their last stand against the conquerors in the Cuidad Perdida before falling under the Spanish invaders.

The most challenging part is that this place is hidden in the jungles of Colombia's northern Sierra Nevada mountains.

5. The Galapagos, Ecuador
