207. The archipelago of Loften, Norway
SUBMITTED BY: http://rayzofsunshine.tumblr.com/
The archipelago of Lofoten in Norway is north of the Arctic Circle. Yet throughout the year it has temperatures which belie its position. This is because of the largest positive temperature anomaly in the world relative to latitude. It makes Lofoten an unexpected delight – its early settlers must have thought they had stumbled across an arctic...

206. Hsipaw, Burma
SUBMITTED BY: midwesterndays.tumblr.com
By the looks of these pictures this probably doesn’t come off as one of the most romantic places in the world and in a conventional sense it is not. I didn’t come here with a boyfriend, I didn’t meet the love of my life here but I did fall head over heels with what will always be my greatest love… travel. This to me was the most...

203. Bantayan Island, Cebu, Philippines
SUBMITTED BY: http://forevercrazyyy.tumblr.com/
This place is quite the place to be. Not so commercialized but it gives people a heap of life. The beach is calm. It is one of a kind. White sand beaches may be overrated for most of us but Bantayan Island is the place to be. It is not really spendy when you go here cause particularly, Cebu City is not really an expensive type of place. Unlike other...

201. Puerto Rico (Old San Juan)
SUBMITTED BY: http://doriannemarie.tumblr.com/
Some say the most romantic thing to do in Puerto Rico is simply to stroll along the streets of Old San Juan and imbibe its special charm. This is especially true on Sundays, when the Puerto Rico Tourism Company hosts a free event called Atardecer Romántico, or “Romantic Sunset,” along Paseo de La Princesa. This is a lovely tree-lined...

SUBMITTED BY: http://100ducks.tumblr.com/
My Mother and I just got back from St. James in Montego Bay. The resort is amazing! We travel two to three times per year and I honestly have to say this is the nicest resort I have stayed in for many reasons. The Jamaican people are very friendly and helpful. The resort itself is beautiful and filled with restaurants, an amazing spa, game rooms with slot...

On the tour they take you by speed boat to the Island. There’s nothing on the Island except a shack with a bar in it and the most amazing beach you will ever see. We spent...

197. Easter Island, Chile
SUBMITTED BY: http://philosophize.tumblr.com/
Large stone head statues on an island about the size of Wisconsin probably wouldn’t be considered romantic, but think again. Most remote place in the world, a picturesque view of the Pacific Ocean, some of the bluest skies you will ever see, mysterious Moai statues, and the wonderful Rapa Nui people(Island locals) puts Easter Island at the top...
