6Faroe Islands, Denmark
For a completely different interpretation of paradise, head north to the Faroe Islands. These remote islands in the North Atlantic are characterized by towering cliffs, green mountains, waterfalls and tiny villages surrounded by dramatic scenery.
The landscape can appear almost otherworldly, especially when low clouds move across the mountains and the sea disappears into the horizon. Traditional houses with grass roofs add to the surreal atmosphere.
The Faroe Islands are ideal for travelers who prefer wild landscapes over crowded beaches. Their beauty is raw, peaceful and remarkably untouched.
