1 🌏Angkor Wat, Cambodia🌏
This attraction ranks #1 in the number of rave reviews on Tripadvisor. What amazes millions of tourists? First, the dimensions! The largest temple complex in the world, built in the 12th century, is larger in area than modern Amsterdam (approx. 230 sq. M). Secondly, the bizarre architecture of ancient buildings. To some, they resemble sand castles that we built as children. Thirdly, sunsets at the pond with a panoramic view of the entire Angkor Wat.

2 🌏Sheikh Zayed Mosque, UAE🌏
The youngest attraction on our list. It was opened in the capital of the UAE only in 2007 and was immediately named the most luxurious mosque in the world. Its walls are decorated with pure gold and bright gems, inside you can see the world's largest carpet from Iran and the largest chandelier, which took about a million colored Swarovski crystals to make. Here is such a fairy tale 1001 nights! By the way, everyone is allowed there, regardless of religion. The main thing is to follow a few rules: take off your shoes at the entrance, and put on an abaya for women

3 🌏Mesquite, Spain🌏
Several hundred years ago, when the Moors ruled southern Spain, the Mezquita in the city of Cordoba was the second most important mosque in the world. But then the Catholics conquered these lands, and the Muslim temple became a Christian cathedral. Fortunately, much of the original decoration has been preserved to us. Particularly impressive are the striped red and white arches that support the vault of the church. They create the effect of infinity and are the main objects of photography for lovers of beautiful shots. The second most important pearl of Mezquita is a mosaic made by Byzantine craftsmen in a prayer niche!

4🌏St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican🌏
The dome of the most important Catholic church in the world seems to hover over Rome. It was created by the great Michelangelo, who headed the construction work at the age of 72. They say that the center of the dome is located exactly above the place where the apostle Peter was buried. This assumption is well beaten in his novel Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. The cathedral houses unique works of art, but to get inside you will have to stand in a long queue. The flow of people wishing to visit here does not dry out!

5🌏 Taj Mahal, India🌏
Monument to the immortal love of the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. His beautiful wife Mumtaz died during childbirth, and the inconsolable widower decided to build in memory of her the most beautiful mausoleum in the world, a paradise on earth. The best architects and masters of not only India, but also Europe were involved in the work. And today, on the banks of the Jamna River, there is a fantastic palace made of snow-white marble, which changes color at different times of the day. Sometimes the Taj Mahal seems just transparent and weightless, it glows pink in the morning, and shimmers with gold at sunset.
