Taj Mahal

The tips were selected based on evaluations of the users of the site who have been in the regions and found that it is worthwhile or not in each of them.

See below how to make the world's best sights.

1 - Machu Picchu, Machu Picchu, Peru

Do book the tour for the Inca Trail in advance 3-4 months, especially if you plan to travel between June and August.

Do not: Do not let the crowd stop you from taking that incredible photo! Spend a night in a Aguas Calientes hotel and take the first bus to the ruins early in the morning, so you can see Machu Picchu before the tourists arrive.

2 - Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

Do: Dress respectfully. Go with trousers or long skirts, loose blouses and long sleeves and a head scarf for women. You can also get the abaya covers available for loan during the visit.

Do not: Do not forget to check if there is a free tour on the day of your visit. This is a great way to expand your knowledge about the United Arab Emirates and talk to a local.

3 - Angkor Wat, Siem Reap, Cambodia

Do: Plan your visit strategically. The Angkor Wat opens to the sunrise, while the other temples open at 7:30 am, then schedule your first stop in the temple you want to see first and do the rest of the tour then.

Do not: Do not be afraid to go in the opposite direction of the crowds. If you want to climb to the Bakan sanctuary (upstairs Angkor Wat) try to do it after sunrise, when most groups usually come down for breakfast, which means less time in queues.

4 - St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican City, Italy

Do: Separate at least one to two hours for your visit. A good plan is to arrive soon as the Basilica opens and make the first stop at the Summit. Although the entrance to the Basilica is free, you'll need a ticket.

Do not: Do not plan your trip without a specific date in mind. Hearings Daddies are usually held on Wednesdays at 10 am in St. Peter's Square. In such cases, the Basilica remains closed until around 12pm. If you plan, you can request a ticket to the Papal Audience, which is free.

5 - Taj Mahal, Agra, India

Do: Pay close attention to the date of purchase of your ticket, since it is valid only for the day printed on the ticket.

Do not: Do not let the monsoon season (July to September) prevent your visit. Usually it does not rain all day (maybe at most half an hour), so just be forewarned and take a raincoat and umbrella.

6 - Cathedral of Cordoba, Cordoba, Spain

Do: Pay attention to the fact that the mosque opening hours vary every day. To ensure that it is open, check the schedule in advance on the official website.

Do not: Do not worry about the crowds. Even in high season, there is still ample room to meet the majestic place.

7 - Church of the Savior on the Spilled Blood, St. Petersburg, Russia

Do: Search before the historical past of this attraction. You will have an appreciation and different understanding of what you will see in this tourist attraction.

Do not: Do not assume that the amazing exterior is the main part. It's not enough just admire the cathedral from the outside, you must also enter it. The Church of the Spilled Blood of the Saviour was built in the late 1880s, it has more than 7,500 square meters of mosaics breathtaking and captivating historical details.

8 - The Alhambra, Granada, Spain

Do book your tickets so set the date of the visit. Also remember that you will need at least five hours to see the entire monument, so do not plan no other commitment.

Do not: Do not be late. Get ready to get at least 30 minutes before the printed hours on your ticket.

9 - Lincoln Memorial and Reflecting Pool, Washington DC, United States

Do: Consider taking a guided tour. The city of Washington is surrounded by monuments and museums, and even the history enthusiasts can benefit from an expert to tell every detail. Many tours pass through various attractions and let you avoid queues, which can help you optimize your time.

Do not: Do not underestimate the historical significance of this attraction. You not only need to observe the immense statue of Lincoln as should also read the words spoken by him in the Gettysburg Address that are inscribed on the wall. The Reflecting Pool witnessed another historic speech: it was there that Martin Luther King Jr. uttered "I have a dream".

10 - Cathedral (Duomo), Milan, Italy

Do: Separate two to three hours of your day for this visit. If you visit it during the summer, bring a hat to protect from the sun and make sure to drink plenty of water and enjoy a delicious gelato.

Do not: Do not let the excitement of being in Milan go to his head. Although the visit to the cathedral is required, the roof of the temple is often overlooked despite being an excellent way to enjoy the wonderful architecture and scenery of the city.
