There are more than 1,000 UNESCO World Heritage sites spread across the globe. Competition among nations to have their historic ruins and pristine wildernesses appear on the list is fierce as an appearance brings with it prestige, tourist numbers, and protection.

Historic

Travel can be exhilarating, but exhausting too. Especially in tourist&#x2d;heavy European capitals where it seems every activity involves crowds of people and long line&#x2d;ups. Happily, quieter gem&#x2d;like destinations are tucked away all over Europe.

While February is one of the busiest months for some tourist destinations, there are plenty of places that promise a quieter holiday. Some of the best destinations offer a nice, cozy break from shivering, and let you splash around in warm waters or hike to the top of a mountain for breathtaking views.

Seasonal

There's a ton of monuments in the U.S. Some you can visit on a quick day trip. Others are immersive experiences that transport you to another time and place.

More and more people are choosing to travel abroad and get away from it all in January. Whether you want to soak up some sun in the southern hemisphere or enjoy the snow closer to home, the colder months of the year are the perfect time to get away.

It's January, a new beginning and the perfect time for setting goals. Whatever your motivation, don't wait to make good on those promises.

When planning a trip, it's critical to have safety measures in case of an unforeseen event, like a hurricane. It’s important to check whether your travel destination is in a hurricane-prone area before embarking on your journey, though that shouldn't stop you from taking that trip you deserve.
