The world awaits. Where will you go next? The following are among the most exciting destinations to visit. Grab your bags and go!

Prague Castle, Czech Republic

Sitting atop a hill across the river from the center of the city, Prague Castle casts a spectacular atmosphere over its surroundings. The castle is an incredible collection of buildings constructed from the 9th to 14th century. It is one of the largest castles in the world, and around almost every corner is a historical building, church, or open square. 

Chichen Itza, Mexico

The ancient Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza have been drawing curious tourists since they were first brought to light by a popular book by John Lloyd Stevens in 1843. Today the site, located near the center of the Yucatan Peninsula, is one of the top tourist attractions in Mexico and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You'll witness the ruins of the once powerful Mayan people and visit the sacred Cenote where sacrifices took place.

Glacier National Park

Named for the remains of glaciers from the ice age, Glacier National Park is located on the border of Canada and Montana. It is often called the "Crown of the Continent," because of its natural beauty. Aside from its breathtaking geological features, it's also home to a fair amount of history. The Going-to-the-Sun Road—a scenic, 50 mile drive through the park—is a National Historic Landmark and an engineering marvel that offers spectacular views, as well as access to popular hiking trails.

Istanbul, Turkey

Turkey's capital city is another destination that offers a great mix of culture, food, and history. There are thousands of years of history here, starting with Ancient Greeks and Ancient Romans and leading up through the Ottoman Empire. You can spend the day shopping and the night at a wonderful restaurant eating great Turkish food and dancing to Turkish music.
