Top of the list and the number-one travel destination is the ancient city of Petra in Jordan. The guide said: “The treasured UNESCO Heritage Site of Petra is the must-see ultimate experience on our list. Once nearly lost to the outside world, the sandstone city is now one of the most loved places on the planet.” It recommended readers, “rediscover the city’s eternal air of mystery in the early morning or in the hours before closing when it’s at its most atmospheric”. The Galapagos Islands off the coast of Ecuador was second on the list, with the spectacular sandstone monolith Uluru in Australia being third.
