Dramatic and otherworldly, Deadvlei in Namibia is one of the most surreal landscapes on the planet. Located within the Namib-Naukluft National Park, Deadvlei is a white clay pan that was once an oasis filled with acacia trees. Over 900 years ago, a shift in climate and the encroachment of the towering red sand dunes cut off the river that fed the pan, leaving behind a hauntingly beautiful scene of dead trees that have been perfectly preserved in the arid environment.
Toledo, high above the Tagus River in central Spain, is a city where layers of history are visible around every corner. For centuries it was an important Roman settlement, a Visigothic capital, and later a stronghold during the medieval Christian reconquest, before becoming the seat of royal power and a crossroads of cultures. Because of this long span of stories and architectural richness, the whole old town has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
