15 Breathtaking Places to Fall in Love All Over Again
Love isn’t about candle-lit dinners and heartfelt letters all the time, sometimes it’s about getting out of the ordinary and experiencing things that make your heart skip a beat. There are some destinations in this world that just seem to be a perfect spot for romance. These are the kinds of places where the scenery does half the work for you.
The world is full of places where sparks can rekindle, from a snug mountain getaway to a dreamy coast getaway. So let’s go on a wander through some of these magical locales that almost demand you fall in love all over again.
Santorini, Greece
Santorini is painted in whitewashed buildings with sapphire blue domes that look like a paint job done by gods. It is famous for its sunset, as the sun dips into the Aegean Sea, and everything turns gold and pink. No wonder this island makes it onto romance bucket lists.
Venice, Italy
Sit back and grind through the channels of Venice on a gondola while soft melodies from the gondolier’s serenade work its way upon you. Venice is the oldest continuously inhabited city in Italy, and a labyrinth of charming bridges, cobblestone streets, and cozy piazzas, and is therefore a perfect setting for love to bloom.
Kyoto, Japan
In the spring, Kyoto’s cherry blossoms give the entire city a pastel paradise feel. Together you walk through the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove or beneath the sakura trees lining the Philosopher’s Path just like poetry in motion.
Banff, Canada
Banff National Park is a nature lover’s dream – full of dramatic peaks and crystal clear lakes. Couples will find a balance between adventure and cozy intimacy surrounded by one of Canada’s most photographed settings with paddleboarding on Lake Louise or hot chocolate after a snowy hike.
Paris, France
There’s a reason why Paris is called the “City of Love.” Every bit of the city drips with charm from picnicking by the Seine to climbing the Eiffel Tower at twilight. You’ll feel like the stars of your own romantic movie sharing a crêpe at Montmartre or a kiss under Pont des Arts.
Maui, Hawaii
There’s nothing more paradise than Maui’s golden beaches, cascading waterfalls, and lush landscapes. Iconic Road to Hana will drive you to where the journey is as romantic as the destination. It also boasts a sunrise to remember.
The Maldives
Turquoise waters, overwater bungalows, and the lapping beneath waves are what you’ll enjoy. All of this and more can be found in the Maldives, making it a top pick if you’re looking to just get away somewhere with your significant other, and enjoy some peace and unparalleled beauty.
Charleston, South Carolina
Charleston had a bit of Southern charm with its antebellum buildings, mossy oaks, and cobblestone streets. Experience a romantic atmosphere by sharing a sunset stroll at The Battery or treated to a horse-drawn carriage ride through the historic district.
Cinque Terre, Italy
These five coastal villages perched on rugged cliffs are like a postcard made real. To enjoy the breathtaking views on them, hike between or while you enjoy a seafood dinner with wine and watch the waves crash below.
Bora Bora, French Polynesia
One thing you will find in Bora Bora is the lagoon water which is so clear you can see each and every ripple. Snorkeling with tropical fish or just dinner and a movie on the quiet shores of an empty beach is almost too good to be true.
Aspen, Colorado
It’s not just for skiing; Aspen is also a year-round romantic escape. In winter, your evening is spent hidden away in front of the fireplace whilst in summer you experience gondola rides that take your breath away and wildflower meadows.
Bali, Indonesia
Bali is known for its lush jungles and beaches — it’s a great place for couples. Visit Ubud’s rice terraces, take a couple’s spa retreat, and watch the sunset out at sea at Uluwatu Temple.
Savannah, Georgia
Savannah is totally a Southern love letter: with canopied streets, all of those historic squares, and an enchantingly beautiful waterfront. Sit quietly in Forsyth Park or dine candlelit in a historic mansion converted to a restaurant.
Dubrovnik, Croatia
Medieval walls and shimmering coastline make Dubrovnik’s setting often referred to as the ‘Pearl of the Adriatic.’ Walk over the age-old ramparts of the city, and then sit in the cliff-side bar and watch the sunset over the sea.
Amalfi Coast, Italy
There are few places where rugged beauty is so fine and refined as on the Amalfi Coast. Limoncello or no limoncello, spending time here with your partner makes you feel you are in a movie.
