by Watch: The best places in the world in 2022
If you’re looking for travel inspiration, look no further. The best places in the world of 2022 have been revealed by TIME magazine.
After two years of restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the top spots were decided with the help of TIME’s international network of correspondents and contributors, “with an eye to those offering new and exciting experiences.”
With a mix of destinations from the other side of the world, unexpected places and more familiar wonders, the magazine adds that “many of the destinations are charting a path to economic recovery”, while others are “thriving, growing and changing”.
From Valencia to Seoul, and from Devon to the Galapagos Islands, in no particular order, here is a list of the world’s 50 best places of the year.
