Best sight ever

What's the best sight (scenery, landscapes, skyscapes, city-scapes etc.) you've ever seen? Mine was back in the early 1970s when I went to Spain for a holiday. On the side of the plane I was sitting and as we moved from the land to over the Mediterranean, all I could see was water underneath the rising heat-haze. The pilot announced that very shortly we would be landing at Barcelona Airport, and to fasten our safety belts etc. Suddenly the plane swung right round, and I was treated to the most breathtaking view I have ever seen. The whole of the beautiful city of Barcelona with its wide palm-tree lined avenues and edged to the north-side by almost orange-coloured mountains, was spread out in front of my vision, the white buildings sparkling in the hot, bright sunshine. A truly majestic vision which has stayed with me all my life.

The best sight that ive seen is the chocolate hills located in bohol.It is composed of around 1,268 perfectly cone-shaped hills of about the same size,spread over an area of more than 50 square kilometers.They are covered in green grass that turns brown during the dry season,hence the same.

Sounds beautiful. I looked at your profile and see you are from the Philippines...(sorry if I spelt that wrong), and I assume that's where Bohol is. I'd imagine you have some breathtaking countryside in that part of the world - I can just imagine the heat haze rising from the foothills of the hills and mountains. Thanks for your reply :-)
