50 Places of a Lifetime - Paradise Found

이탈리아 아말피 해안(Amalfi Coast)

 

 

 

 

From a yacht at sea on a blinding summer’s afternoon, the dizzy wall of terraced vines and lemon groves, the tiny white houses and the purple bougainvillea, the perfect fingernails of beach below, all lull you into a timeless present. Yet a thousand years ago, today’s toy town was the hub of the known world.—Peter Robb, novelist

 

 

미국 미네소타주 바운더리 워터스(Boundary Waters)

 

 

 

We need to maintain some of our treasures the way they were thousands of years ago. That’s why we have the Boundary Waters wilderness. Besides, there are so many lazy people out there who could use a little paddling. There’s nothing like a good paddle.—Jesse Ventura, governor of Minnesota

 

 

영국의 버진 아일랜드(British Virgin Islands)

 

 

 

These islands offer some of the greatest sailing in the world.—Walter Cronkite

 

 

 

그리크 제도(Greek Islands)

 

 

 

The Greek islands are like musical instruments that form an orchestra in their seas—each has an individual timbre and signature tune.—Patricia Storace, author ofDinner With Persephone

 

 

화와이 제도(Hawaiian Islands)

 

 

 

You know that God lives in Hawaii. It’s the Garden of Eden, and you feel it every day. You feel it in the sunrise and the sunset. You feel it in the vibrancy of colors, the scent of flowers, the violence of volcanoes.—Bette Midler, entertainer

 

 

일본의 정원여관(Japanese Ryokan)

 

 

  

Like one of those paradoxes from a Zen fable, solitude can be its own kind of stimulation.—Arthur Golden

 

 

 

인도의 케랄라(Kerala)

 

 

 

Statistically Kerala stands out as the Mount Everest of social development; there’s truly no place like it.—Bill McKibben

 

 

칠레 토레스델 파이네 국립공원(Torres del Paine)

  

 

One night we hiked through icy, fairy-tale woodlands to reach Lago Grey. As we left the woods we saw light from a full moon striking the icebergs. They looked like ghosts floating over the lake. That night I fell in love with Torres del Paine.—Anne Patterson, park guide

 

 

인도양의 세이셜 공화국(Seychelles)

 

  

The islands are so remote that nothing seems to come ashore on the waves except the sea itself.—George Plimpton

 

 

태평양 제도(Pacific Islands)

 

  

My favorite place to dive is the lagoon on the island of Rangiroa in French Polynesia....Diving there is quite hairy because you start very deep, then allow the current to drag you at a good clip through the pass, filled with feeding predators and dying prey. Then you’re spit out into the lagoon, where everything is placid.—Peter Benchley, author ofJaws
