OT- The most beautiful place in the world

The South Pacific over and over and over also 'my front porch lookin in' WBALLZ can do country too!

I may not be as well-traveled as Johnny Cash, but I've been to a lot of places and Yosemite is by far the most beautiful I've seen.

No votes for Saginaw, MI?

I always wanted to visit the Star Wars universe. I never will sadly.

Atlantis on Ibiza, Spain. Most beautiful place I have ever been.

I really won't pick, can't pick. What I'll say is that beauty is everywhere, if you have eyes to see it. I've been fortunate to see and experience all the following, and too many more to mention.

• Mountains in Colorado.
• Copper Canyon in Mexico.
• Tide pools in California.
• Vineyard hills in Austria south of Vienna.
• Mountain lakes in Austrian Alps.
• Soraksan mountain in Korea.
• Alpine meadows in Montana.
• Redwoods and sequoia in California.
• Many of our National Parks.
• Coral reefs in Florida keys.
• Nichols Arboretum on a Spring day.
• Trees in western Michigan on a crisp sunny Fall day.
• Iguaza Waterfalls on border of Brazil and Argentina.

I hope I always have eyes to see and appreciate the beautiful world we live in. It is great to have a sense of awe and wonder at every day.

I saw the title of this post and my immediate reaction was to say Arcadia Bluffs, and now reading that is what your mom said, I agree.  No other place I've visited left me absolutely speechless at how incredible it looked than standing just outside the clubhouse, on top of the hill, at Arcadia Bluffs.  I tell anyone considering playing it to do so.  I've played it twice, once in the early fall and once in the early spring and if you have the option, play it in the fall.  The heather is golden (opposed to the green/purple, in the spring) and it is just incredible.  

for nothing. Absolutely stunning shortly after sunrise or shortly before Sunset. Just incredible. And just about any park in Utah. Scuba diving any place in tropical Bluewater. The Ocean from the deck of my ship, 2000 miles from anywhere.

It's a dormant volcanic crater with no water source, so it just accumulates rainwater. There are no fish or water plants - in fact the water is almost entirely pure. This all makes it an incredibly clear blue such that near the edges you can't tell if it's a reflection or there really are rocks and trees going out into the water. It looks like you can see forever, and most days the water is very still - the bowl shields the lake from wind. Worth a visit if you're up that way.

Antarctica. The sheer definition of undisturbed.

Just got back from my honeymoon in Santorini. Most beautiful place I've ever seen

Erg Chebbi, Sahara Desert, Morocco. The then-future MGoWife and I spent some time there. Just amazingly quiet, just the sound of the wind and the fire and camels. The unbelievable night sky. And the glorious sunrise over the dunes.

Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania. Wild animals!!!

Cappadoccia, Turkey.

Amsterdam. For a whole lot of reasons.

 

Also, I played Arcadia Bluffs GC a couple weeks ago. Shaved about 15 strokes off the other time I played it about 5 years ago.  (Note that I'm not saying what either score was...)

Call me a homer but northern Michigan is exquisite to me especially in the Fall!
