25 of the Most Surreal Places on Earth
I’ve seen some pretty surreal places in my travels. Steam rising from a hot waterfall in Java Indonesia, rice paddies to the horizon in China, other worldly karsts soaring straight from the water in Ha Long bay Vietnam and rock formations against the setting sun in the white desert in Egypt. I have been lucky enough to soak up the atmosphere in these places, to take on a little of their otherworldly feeling and use it to spark my imagination and inspire my love of world travel. I hope this collection of surreal travel photographs help to inspire your own exploration of our ‘oh so amazing world’.
