Las Lajas Sanctuary, Narino, Colombia
The most striking feature of this Catholic church is its setting: the grey stone structure spans a forested gorge 150 feet (46m) above a river. Its story is one of miracles and determination, beginning in 1754 when a mother and daughter, sheltering from a storm, saw an image of the Virgin Mary in the rocks.

According to the story, the daughter was cured of her muteness and deafness. After hearing of the miracle, a blind man spent 10 years collecting funds to build a chapel in the spot – and his sight returned. Inspired by these marvels, the vertiginous church was finally built between 1916 and 1949.

Oia, Santorini, Greece
Greece is so blessed with natural and man-made beauty, it’s almost embarrassing. But it’s hard to think of a view that more succinctly sums up the country’s gorgeousness than the blue domes of Santorini island.

The most famous whitewashed buildings are in Oia, a clifftop village perched prettily by the Aegean Sea, whose azure hue perfectly matches those rooftops. Come sunset, it's indisputably magical.

Cascade Range, Washington
Summer in the Cascade Range is truly a magical experience. Some of my favorite memories are of waking up before dawn, somewhere high up in the range and wandering out into the morning light wrapped up in my sleeping bag, mountain peaks all around. There's nothing quite like a summit sunrise.
