Monte Fitz Roy

Argentine mountain, hiking, pretty, snow, iconic-looking, yeah?

Franconia Notch

Franconia Notch is a pretty mountain pass in New Hampshire, I think. There are reportedly some great hiking opportunities such as "Franconia Ridge" which seems to feature a part of trail that goes along the crest or ridge of a mountain saddle or something and it looks quite peaceful and beautiful up there.

Besseggen

A famous really cool view of two differently-colored lakes seems to be available here. Mountains, water, cool Norwayish scenery.

Trzy Korony

Means "Three Crowns" in Polish, I guess. This mountain thing kinda looks like a crown from the south, and I think you can hike up it and see cool views and stuff. It seems to be part of a "Pieniny" national park, too.

Étretat

This place in France has some cool-looking cliffs and at least one cool-looking natural arch on the coast.

Auroville

Weird experimental town or something in India (looks like it's in Tamil Nadu pretty close to Puducherry). There's an interesting-looking area featuring a gold sphere thing. Unity among humans seems to be a big part of the philosophy of Auroville or something. Odd but some of the structures seem interesting.

Quebec City

The Cheateau Frontenac, probably the most famous building in Quebec. Also nearby is Montmorency Falls, probably the most famous waterfall in Quebec.

Cumberland Island

horses and ruins in Georgia

Lac Abbe

Lake with limestone rock formations nearby. Maybe some flamingos too.

Valle de la Luna

Famous desert landscape in northern Chile.

Pamukkale

Interesting white snowy-looking mineral thermal-looking stairway-looking thing in Turkey. Looks pretty neat.

Predjama Castle

Castle on/in a cliff, which seems to be partially in a cave opening. Looks pretty fantasy-like and cool.

Skocjan Caves

Caves. I think there's an underground river section here, and a huge chasm with a bridge crossing it, which looks pretty cool.

Arica and Parinacota Quebradas

In the Arica and Parinacota region of Chile, there are multiple "quebradas", or canyons/ravines/valleys or something like that. These things are huge, and an interesting thing about them is they're located in the Atacama Desert area. Also, they seem much more straight than other canyons and such, so from the rim, it might seem like an enormous ditch made of sand, but perhaps with some patches of green at the bottom. It could look really neat in person.

Yalta

Site of some war conference a while back I think, but the area 'round here looks quite pretty with mountains and coast stuff. Somewhere I think there's a cool theatrically-placed castle thing (it's small but neat, it seems) called "Swallow's Nest" and the views around here look pretty cool.

False Bay

Very pretty bay by the Cape of Good Hope.

Picos de Europa

Large, grand, and beautiful mountainlands in northern Spain. Neat views in this area, including the Covadonga/Enol Lakes.

Willemstad

Colorful cute-looking city on Curacao.

The Baths

The Baths of Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands look cool with all that neat water and those neat boulder things hahahaha WOOO OWL CITY IN THE BACKGROUND

Natural Pool

On the northeastern coast side of Aruba, there's this thing called the Natural Pool (possibly also called "Conchi") that's really rocky but pool-like, which looks neat.
