Descend into caves lit by glowworms brighter than the brightest chandelier. Uncover ancient history beneath the worlds most romantic city.

Will you discover mermaids on a tiny island in South Korea, or witches deep in a Lithuanian forest? This book will take you everywhere and beyond. Each section includes all of the fascinating destinations youll find at a specific line of longitude, those imaginary lines that divide the globe vertically and meet up at the North and South Poles.
So get ready to bungee jump off a road to nowhere in the Brazilian jungle or lose yourself in the worlds largest maze. Whether deep underwater in a prehistoric grotto or high on a cliff at the tip of a rock trolls tongue, adventure awaits around every corner. You have only to turn the page to discover it!

Waitavala Water Slide. Formed

forces, this fierce, slip-

Tonga
Hunga Tonga-Hunga Haapai
T his tiny slice of land has the honour of being the worlds youngest island. It lived as a quiet, underground volcano until 2015, when it burst out of the Pacific Ocean. The ash plumes from its eruption were so vast they diverted flights for days. When it settled down, it formed a seahorse-shaped island with a milky-green lake in the colour of its crater. Alas, this baby island may only have
a short life. Scientists
believe that its too frag-
ile to survive more than
a few decades. It wont
be long before it erodes
back into the ocean
to resume its quiet,
underwater life.

Aniakchak
National
Monument & Preserve
M ore people explore space each year than visit the otherworldly Aniakchak National Monument and Preserve. A collapsed volcanic crater, this barren landscape feels more than a little like a lost world. Giant bears wander across the tundra. Clouds fill up the crater and spill over the edges like waterfalls. Only the most intrepid explorers hike down into the crater using animal trails, before whitewater rafting down the Aniakchak River out to Aniakchak Bay and the Pacific Ocean.

Pineapple GardeN Maze
ITS NOT HARD TO GET LOST in this labyrinth, which is over 3,600 sq m (39,000 sq ft) long and was twice named the Worlds Largest Maze by the Guinness World Records. Its built entirely out of plants native to Hawaii. Race through hibiscus, panax
and pineapple plants to see if you can beat the fastest time recorded (seven minutes). Most people take about 45 minutes to complete the maze, but why rush when youre surrounded by all this beauty?

Haiku Stairs
ITS A STAIRWAY TO nowhere, but at the top of these 3,922 steps, youll think youve reached heaven. The stairway once led to a top-secret radio facility in the 1940s, but after the radio base was shut down, the stairs remained. Although youre not supposed to climb these stairs, that doesnt stop risk-takers from hiking up for a spectacular view from the top of the Koolau Mountain Range. Paradise, indeed!
