The Blue Lagoon in Iceland is a beautiful place to relax. You can swim year round in the bright blue hot springs. Your ticket covers a drink, a towel to dry off, and a silica mud mask. The hot springs are known to have many health benefits for your skin. Although the blue lagoon is a man-made wonder, there are natural hot springs all over Iceland, including Mývatn Nature Baths, Laugarvatn Fontana, Sky Lagoon, and Secret Lagoon.

Tegallalang Rice Terrace is gorgeous and a must-see if you are ever in Ubud. These terraces stand 600 meters above sea level. The rice terraces carved into the mountain are used for crop cultivation. You can swing on the infamous Bali Swings in multiple places. One of the main places you can hop on a swing is the Tegallalang Rice Terrace. I recommend this activity, as it is not only exhilarating but also loads of fun.
