Kazan
The capital of Tatarstan. There's a really pretty looking mosque here, and the city's kremlin thing looks kinda neat too.

Monument Rocks
Rock formations in Kansas, which is something kinda special I guess due to the general flatness of Kansas.
Fenda da Tundavala
Found this from Angola.org. Seems like a volcanic geologic feature: a "crack" or "fissure" or something. It seems to be on the rim of a plateau or something, so the views look quite good from here.

Buzludzha Monument
The communist thing at the top of some mountain in Bulgaria is abandoned and kinda ironic, now that Bulgaria is now a member of the European Union, no longer with such a communist government. This building/monument thing looks kinda flying saucer-ish, and the views from here might be quite lovely.

Aral Sea
The Aral Sea has been shrinking over the years, and interesting remnants seem to remain in this area, such as old abandoned ships and mummified fish. This might be quite an interesting place to explore.

Três Caixas d'Água
These three water towers of Porto Velho, Brazil, are somehow famous, and possibly have the nickname "Tres Marias". Ok.
Kinzua Bridge
The Kinzua Bridge in northern Pennsylvania was probably pretty impressive as a railroad viaduct going over a valley. However, it seems to have been partially destroyed by a perhaps even more impressive tornado in 2003. Now the place looks bizarrely cool, with huge pieces of bridge below and a still neat-looking remnant.
I found out about this place from Google Maps; its label showed up on the map at a pretty far-out zoom level. :P
