  • Top 10 national parks in the world

    Yellowstone

    If you want to get a taste of a country’s natural sights, then visiting a national park is the best way to get it done, because you can be sure that you will see some truly photo-worthy sights. National parks are created for the preservation and display of places of exceptional national beauty, so most likely, each square meter of the park will reveal something worth looking at.

    So if you want to cool off from the summer heat in a natural environment, here are the top 10 national parks in the world.

    1. Yellowstone National Park, USA

    There are many ways to describe the amazing Yellowstone, the first national parks of the US, but the most fitting is probably big. Everything in Yellowstone is larger than life, starting with its astounding beauty.

    2. Kakadu National Park, Australia

    Kakadu National Park

    Bushwalking is the best way to explore Australia’s untamed beauty, and Kakadu National Park, Australia is the best possible place for it: eucalyptus forests, croc-infested rivers, and Aboriginal rock-art.

    3. Lake District National Park, United Kingdom

    The lakes, fells, peaks and boulders of Lake District are the best of the British countryside with all its endearing quirks and quiet beauty, which has inspired for centuries travelers and artists.

    4. Khao Yai National Park, Thailand

    Amazing waterfalls which have even been featured in movies, forests where macaque monkeys frolic, grasslands where elephants roam and breath-taking views of mountains is only a small portion of what this park has to offer.

    Guilin National Park

    5. Kilimanjaro National Park, Tanzania

    Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa, is a natural wonder that few other places can match in beauty. Climbing the mountain, or at least parts of it, allows you to see an amazing range of scenery, flora and fauna.

    6. Guilin National Park, China

    The iconic limestone peaks of China, one of the most beautiful natural sights in Asia, are at their best in Guilin National Park, China, either when the sun is shining or when they are mysteriously cloaked in mist.

    7. Torres del Paine, Chile

    The Patagonian wilderness is one of the most untamed and pristine places in the world, where you can take an unobscured look at the wonders that natura can work. Torres del Paine’s rock spires, granite towers and glaciers are simply unforgettable.

    8. Banff National Park, Canada

    As a huge park in a huge country, everything in Banff seems to come supersized, or at least in larger numbers than anywhere else. Keep an eye out for the local wildlife, it’s almost unavoidable to meet at least some of it.

    9. Mungo National Park, Australia

    The dry, deserted, downright prehistoric side of Oz is in plain view in Mungo National Park, a vast expanse of desert which looks even more deserted than deserts usually do, and utterly beautiful while at it.

    10. Tongariro National Park, New Zealand

    If you’ve seen The Lord of the Rings, you need no convincing why you should visit Togariro as soon as you can, because this place has some of the most strikingly beautiful landscapes on the planet.

    Khao Yai Resort wrote on July 22, 2011:

    Khao Yai National Park is very nice, but it still surprises me that it makes a top ten list. One thing that is true is that the wildlife is pretty accessible. It isn’t unusual to see wild elephants if you make trip into the park at night.
