Aran Islands

These islands have cliff views that look cool.

Pier 21

Kinda like what Ellis Island is to the USA, this one's in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I might have ancestors who came through here, who knows. It might be a neat place anyway to check out (there's a museum).

Steens Mountain

Steens Mountain in Oregon looks quite amazing. The topographical shapes include huge bowl-like gorges, and great viewpoints along the top of the mountain. There seem to be many impressive and beautiful sights that can be seen from this location.

Berlin

There's some interesting stuff in Berlin, probably both historical and architectural and other stuff. Particularly, the Brandenburg Gate and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe (Holocaust Memorial) might be good places to visit for their historical significance.

Reykjavik

Seems like a pretty city, including the Hallgrimskirkja church, which is tall and looks neat, and probably has good views from its top. It's also got a cool-looking concert hall, the Harpa. It's also a fun place name to say and spell. :)

Longaberger Home Office

The Longaberger Home Office in central Ohio is pretty much shaped like a huge basket. And it looks like a very well done basket replica; it seems to be a very well disguised building. Might be a neat place to stop.

Cerro Paranal

The Paranal Observatory in Chile has quite a neat-looking hotel/residence thingy. You could probably do a web search for that and find what I mean.

Hungarian Parliament

The Hungarian Parliament building in Budapest seems to be one of the largest in the world, and it looks quite grand. I also like a red and white color scheme.

Other parts in Budapest might be pretty cool, too, like the Citadel and the Szent Gellert Monument thing with a waterfall thing. :D
