It's up to you how you want to spend your holiday, whether that's lazing on the beach at a Caribbean club hotel sipping Mai Tais. Or tending to the garden.

While I do enjoy the occasional Mai Tai on the beach, I prefer to see new things and travel to faraway places. I've read my fair share of travel guides to find out where to go and what to see. And I was often disappointed.

While many guidebooks spend an entire chapter extolling the virtues of a particular destination (e.g. a capital city), World Heritage Sites are different. They're as objective as it gets, and often take you off the beaten track. For example, I have fond memories of my taxi ride through a Czech winter landscape to visit Holasovice, a site that only World Heritage connoisseurs would appreciate. More often than not, WHS are great places.

Initially, I concentrated on visiting as many WHS as possible, which gave me a good overview. However, since I've reached the magic 300 (almost 600 now), I've shifted my focus to visiting the really great sites: quality over quantity.

Ultimately, I recommend that you travel as you please. However, if you find yourself in a country (even if it's just for a beach holiday), take a look at the map of World Heritage Sites on this site to see if any are nearby. You may have to travel a little off the beaten track, but I assure you it will be worth it.

Chashma-Ayub Mausoleum (T)

Nan Germany - 03-May-23

Chashma-Ayub Mausoleum (T)

As a day trip from Bukhara, I decided to tackle a few silk road sites in the proximity. We started the day at the Minaret in Vobkent and were then to go to Chashma-Ayub Mausoleum. According to our website, the mausoleum is close to Vobkent. My Uzbek driver meanwhile seemed to take a detour getting there. When he missed the last turn left that would have made sense, I called the tour agency to clarify what was up.

He kept insisting that Chasma-Ayub was a natural last stop in Bukhara, while I kept stating we just passed it. Eventually, he agreed to drive according to google maps, taking me to Khayrabatcha, a village in the country side. He was quite amazed where we ended up, but I think we found the right location

The Cultural Landscape of Civita di Bagnoregio (T)

Nan Germany - 07-May-23

The Cultural Landscape of Civita di Bagnoregio (T)

We were fortunate to take the morning bus from Viterbo to Bagnoregio, as the landscape was still blanketed in slight fog, adding a mythical feel to the stunning view of Civita di Bagnoregio from the viewpoint. Also, we managed to arrive before the big tour groups from Rome that would later crowd the town.

After taking plenty of pictures, we climbed the walkway, paying the 5 EUR entrance fee to support the preservation efforts of the crumbling hill. Although I would have preferred a proper ticket instead of a thermoprinted one, it was a small price to pay.

Early Synagogues in the Galilee (T)

Nan Germany - 04-May-23

Early Synagogues in the Galilee (T)

During our Israel trip, we visited two early synagogues: Korazim and Capharnaum.

Korazim, located north of the Sea of Galilee, boasts an ancient Jewish synagogue dating back to the 2nd to 4th centuries CE. The synagogue features elaborate decorative elements such as stone carvings and images of the Zodiac. The encompassing archaeological site also includes remnants of the town, some of which have been reconstructed or are undergoing reconstruction.

Capharnaum, an ancient town on the Sea of Galilee, is known as the "town of Jesus" in the New Testament. Its late 2nd or early 3rd-century CE synagogue features intricate decorative elements, including stone carvings and a colorful mosaic floor. Interestingly, the synagogue was built in competition with the nearby church of St

Lake Maggiore and Lake D'Orta lakelands (T)

Nan Germany - 27-Apr-23

Lake Maggiore and Lake D

As a child, my family and I drove from Hamburg to Italy twice, with Lago Maggiore being our first stop after driving non-stop for 12 hours. The stunning scenery on the western side of the lake, near the Swiss border, left a lasting impression on me; not much else of those Italy trips did.

It took decades for me to return. Finally, some 40 years later, I stayed for a night in Dormelletto on the Southern shore. The next day I visited Arona, Stresa, and the Isola Bella, before heading to Basel by train

Sulcis Iglesiente (T)

Nan Germany - 27-Apr-23

Sulcis Iglesiente (T)

Sulcis-Iglesiente is a historical mining region in southwestern Sardinia. Mining activities date back to prehistoric times with evidence of lead, silver, and copper extraction in the Nuragic era. The Roman period saw significant expansion of mining activities with the discovery of large deposits of lead, silver, and zinc. Mining activity declined in the Middle Ages but was revived in the 19th century with the discovery of rich coal deposits.

As is common for dormant tentative sites, it's not quite clear what is actually included in the nomination. I think we covered two parts of what would be included in a nomination:
