Most Beautiful Countries

Very big country would be nice to visit very important it also has lots of over seas territories such as French Guiana and French Polynesia which would also be beautiful.

France gets the vote because it's my favourite country in the whole world!
Paris is the most beautiful city in the world-but hey, France is more than just Paris.
People need to check out other cities in France and even the countryside as well.
Being one of the largest countries in Western Europe, France has a diversity of landscapes-beaches at the north and the south and the Alps and the Pyrenees mountains.
If you visit the south in summer, you need to check out the lavender at Provence.
There's also a huge range of architecture in France-from half-timbered houses in the north to Italian-style houses in the south.
France also has a huge range of cuisine-from the dairy-heavy dishes of the north to the Mediterranean flavours of the south, not to mention their delicious pastries.
France is also full of history as well-there are prehistoric caves, Roman structures, medieval buildings, chateaus and the D-Day beaches.
No wonder France is the most visited country in ...more

This country is so beautiful. The buildings attractive especially the Eifeel Tower. This country have many beautiful skyscrapers and scenes. This is the country of romance.

So fascinating and diversified country, do not hesitate to go outside Paris and French Riviera, in the country side.
The food are so various and delicious, each region has is own architecture(s), dishes, traditions, cultures, accents..

And also there are the famous French Polynesia and so many other Islands that make France one of the most fabulous country to visit and for this diversity and biodiversity; Imagine that part of Amazon is a French department, we have been there it's more than wonderful.

But most of people do not know this hidden and not enough known parts of France, maybe better like that to preserve such treasures...

I'm half Japanese and half English and I live in London. I visit Japan often, and once I'm there, I find it hard to leave. However, it's sad that the country is ruining its beautiful countryside, and ancient buildings, with massive crops and crappy concrete buildings. Some people have realised this, and have tried to stop this, but maybe it's because of the population decrease, I don't know. If you want to get away from these problems, visit Kyoto. It's a small city that has laws that stops the replacing of historical buildings, construction of buildings that are more than 8 floors and the erasing of country side around it. It's so beautiful there. Even an American General in WW2 asked this higher command not to bomb, attack, or drop the atomic bomb on this city. YOU MUST GO!

Japan is a wonderful place to be if you love nature, I'm just a little saddened that not only Japan, but different country's get discriminated on.
Yes, every country has its ups and downs, but it shouldn't be put on them forever for things that happened decades ago.
And there may be people that are bad in a country (Example: Afghanistan)
But there ARE PEOPLE that are GOOD to others and wish that terrorism and violence will come to an end, no matter the religion.
If only people will see that, then it could be a better place for the Earth for all of us people.

Mount Fuji is what makes Japan so attractive. The temples and houses are just organized then the Japanese caligraphy are properly written.

The Japanese people are the incarnation of all good spirits. Kyoto is the most beautiful city in the world and Tokyo is the greatest metropolis on earth. Visiting this country even after a lifetime of travel is to be born again, to have the way you perceive the world changed forever.

I think Italy is a beautiful country, it's a country with a rich cultural heritage. There are many historical monuments, museums, and works of art to see that show Italy's amazing history. Italy also has a scenic nature with its verdant valleys, vineyards, snow-capped mountains, and beautiful beaches such as the Amalfi Coast. I found Italy to be a great place to visit due to its beauty and delicious food.

Here in Switzerland we have lots of Italians who immigrated with us for the last 150 years.

Each year and that for generations most of them, and by entire families are returning back to their own country (Italy). That shows how much they are not integrated and how much they do not want to really stayed in Switzerland. Those people do not give any added value to our country. They just refuse to be pure Swiss.

And we guess that this stupid and arrogant way to do is not only visible in Switzerland but also in major countries where they have migrated all along the ages.

So they just come with their food pizza and pasta, eat just that and never try to tend to be Swiss.

Most of other migrants from Asia, Africa and South-America for example are much more respectable people and therefore much to be respected.

And Italians will never accept in their own country someone doing the same as they are doing.

For this reason Italians are very racist, in ...more

Some people, certainly Italians argue about famous Italian history against short and poor American one.
Just to remind them and make them more cultured, Italy has been founded in 1861, its history is actually so much shorter than American one. And except Mussolini acts, what's happened there?
And accusing American for being thieves of foreign history, really you don't know anything about history and you are explaining us.
Don't ask American or other non Italian people revising their history, Italy is more and more going to be peanuts, and people like you don't increase this level.

I read the negative comments that have the most votes. Ok, I'm not objective because I'm Italian and I love my country. But I point out just two things:

1. although it is a peninsula, Italy also has the main mountain range in Europe and the largest islands in the Mediterranean. And a second mountain range with different characteristics which runs the entire nation form north to south. No other nation in Europe can have the same variety of landscape (don't forget che wheather).

2. I met people who live abroad and who do not know the concept of the historic center: No need to add more

Wow, I was actually expecting New Zealand to be number one! These other countries are beautiful too, but New Zealand is so special. Its natural landscapes, glaciers, mountains, lakes, rivers, you name it. New Zealand has about the same land mass as the UK but the UK has a population of 64 million whereas New Zealand has a population of 4 million. It isn't crowded and has the most beautiful beaches I've ever been to! Plus, Lord of the Rings was filmed here and Lorde is a kiwi! That's another thing, kiwis are crazy cool birds.

In New Zealand the whole world is on show. It boasts tropical islands, rolling green fields, magnificent mountains, fiords, snow and breath-taking ski fields, beautiful beaches, limestone caves, glow worms, rain forests, caverns, extraordinary rock features, volcanos, hot pools, some of the worlds most spectacular waterfalls and even a desert. No other place has such concentrated diversity.

The last landmass to be colonised by humans, so also the least marred by them (I can only dream of how it was before settlers came). Also the diversity is incredible - from jagged mountains, fjords and glaciers, to world class beaches and coastlines, and everything in between.

New Zealand is by far the most beautiful country. It has everything beautiful apart from the weird European buildings which are not beautiful in my opinion. Fjords, Mountains, Grass, Buildings, everything is beautiful.

Canada has amazing natural beauty. From the Atlantic to the Pacific. The Rockies to the Great Lakes, the arctic to the badlands, and from Victoria because to St John's nl, Canada is beautiful. Visit the cities where stunning architecture can be viewed. Toronto's CN Tower, Ottawa's parliament, Vancouver's harbour, Montreal's old port, Quebec City's Chateaux Frontenac and Edmonton's mega river valley within its city limits are all amazing trates of Canada's beautiful cities.

The quality of life, the friendliness of people and their overall knowledge which makes them the smartest people in the world is why Canada is the best country to live in. Canadians are very humble as opposed to their very closed minded neighbors of the south.

Canada is a massive country, with every part having something different to offer. Some notable examples would be Quebec's French like culture or the Inuit culture in Nunavut. You can also visit cities like Toronto and Vancouver and experience the stunning urban landscape.

Ever since I moved to Canada, I was fascinated by all the amazing landmarks and beautiful land and nature. It is the 5th most beautiful country in the world. the people are so polite and they take good care of nature. Long live Canada!

US is beautiful. We have freedom, liberty, democracy, beaches, oceans, mountains, volcanos, tundras, and of course trees, but we do have one of the tallest trees in the world. History, grasslands, deserts, tropical places, forests, rocks, great technology, amusement parks, national parks, beautiful styles of buildings, sightseeing places and fun, natures, snows, weathers, hiking, rivers, lakes, entertainments, a lot of people, rich country, powerful, big, successful, and even more you can think of. U.S. has everything you could do to enjoy, it's a popular country, that's why US is the most beautiful and the greatest and the best country in the world.

I have a bit of a bias as being from the USA, but we (referring to Americans) do truly have a spectacular country. From the vistas of the Grand Canyon, to the Valleys of Yosemite, to the skyline of New York, everyone should visit the U.S. at least once in their lifetime (and Americans should travel outside the USA more to experience the rest of the world).

The U.S. has the most spectacular scenery in the world, and I'm not an American. The National Parks and State Parks are SUPERB but it doesn't have centuries of history, nor truly glorious historical buildings that you find in Europe. Furthermore, it's NOT the greatest and best country in the world but its scenery is second to none.

You CANNOT deny that the USA has the best scenery in the world. We have islands, deserts, mountains, beaches, cities, flat land, national parks, lakes, rivers, etc.

We also have many climates, warm, cold, hot, etc.
And the weather here is also cool and nice! We don't have boring weather like most european countries.

USA = D I V E R S E

I'm going to be very honest here. I've been to France. I've been to Italy. I've been lucky to travel all over. But there's just something about Greece that makes me love it more than the others. The landscape is absolutely breathtaking. There are stunning mountains and beautiful beaches. The history is also incredibly. You can literally go on a walk and run into some sort of ancient ruin. It's seeped in history and culture. Also, for some reason, the food in Greece was my favourite out of everywhere in Europe. So fresh and super affordable. I ended up buying a full meal at a restaurant in Nafplio for 2 euros. That is about 4 CAD. If you were to go anywhere in Europe, I recommend Greece. I would love to spend the rest of my life there.

Greece is heaven. It has everything one can imagine and want. From 80% mountains, to 16,000 km of the most crystal clear coastline, to unparalleled history, to heavenly cuisine which I most definitely rate above other countries like Italy where I have been also many times. Nowhere did I eat as heavenly as in Greece, and for great money value. Italy or France are much more expensive and often nowhere near as tasty. Greece has 6,000 islands, each unique and own character. 20% of all the Ultra peaks mountains in all of Europe lies in Greece. Ultra peaks mountains are mountains that rise more than 1,500 meters above it's lowest surrounding region. Greece has a great culture, great traditions. And when one goes to Greece, one will simply get amazed by it's incredible breathtaking beauty. It's the combination of breathtaking beauty, vast mountains, bluest seas, incredible traditional villages/towns/sights everywhere across the country, heavenly food, islands for a lifetime, unparalleled ...more

There are many beautiful sceneries such as Colloseum and Mount Olympus. I see the influences of Greek mythology in those sculptures.

By far the most beautiful country in the world in my opinion. The culture, the people, the museums, the landscape, the coastline, the cities, the villages, the climate, the beaches, the nightlife. It combines everything. Favorite destination for millions of people all over the world. Most Unesco sites, and 98% blue flagged beaches. I was speechless. It's a paradise. You can even visit it in the winter, beautiful mountains and facilities during that season. Incredible. It lacks deserts and jungles though, if that's what you are looking for.

Switzerland has everything to offer from the Mediterranean area in Ticino to the medieval bridges of Luzern and the Rhine Valley with the Alps dominating the landscape and many different and beautiful cities, lakes, valleys, rivers and mountains. Switzerland is like a union of smaller "countries" aka cantons, each being unique and different, making the country very diverse and interesting.

So beautiful! If you enjoy hikes and nature, it's the place for you! The mountain towns, such as Zermatt, are beautiful, there is no place better than Switzerland!

I love this country.. It's the most beautiful country in the world..

The most beautiful mountain landscapes!

South Africa is one of the most diverse places in terms of wildlife, landscape, people, and history. The people for South Africa take great pride in their country and with places like The Kruger National Park, Cape Town and Johannesburg all hold a wide range of activities this country deserves a visit by everyone

Four of the ten oldest mountain ranges in the world are found in South Africa, including the breathtaking Waterberg and the stunning Makhonjwa range, the oldest in the world. Surrounded by Cape Town is one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature, Table Mountain. South Africa has been rated the finest wildlife destination on earth and is Africa's most biodiverse. The list goes on and on!

The most amazing country in the world! People, wildlife, mountains, beaches, forests, deserts, flora, colours, ocean life, snow, history, lifestyle.
All in one! The best! The place to be or to visit...

Biodiversity. I grew up with it, but only appreciated it when I went to other countries and saw that I could count the number of plant species.

No wonder Iceland was so expensive!
There was so much to see... The most beautiful landscapes... Gletsjers... Food and people! Waterfalls are amazing... Hidden beach... The blue lagoon... Reykjavik of course and many many other things!

Also this one is in the top 10 of most beautiful countries in the world... People just don't know about Iceland... This is just a website where you can vote for yourself... My experiences says enough!
MY FAVOURITE Country

The country is beautifully located and has rich beaches and people. I loved people - all of whom were forever nice and kind. The landscape, the ice and the ringroad were all beautiful and captivating. Don't forget their airline too, which is cheap and welcoming.

I came to Iceland with my wife and we was just gonna stay for a week but we were in Iceland for 2 month's! So beutiful country!

Amazing landscapes. Should be the 1st!

Nice nation, but filled with the most loud, racist, uneducated, lousy people you could come across. I find Spanish people judgemental and hypocritical. An incredibly racist society.

I'm peruvian and I love spain, spanish people are very nice and friendly, and their culture and architecture is great.

No, not a nice country. Tacky and far behind France. Incredibly vile/rude/racist/uneducated people.

Spain is one of the most diverse countries all over the world.

With its beautiful countryside and medieval architecture, Germany looks like it could have come out of a fairytale. Would love to visit someday.

I was amazed when I visited this country. The stunning landscapes, the people, their culture and the cuisine. People living there must feel so privileged, but they don't because they dream of sunny islands which can get so boring after a while.

Should definitely be higher up in the list, at least 6 or higher, first of all, Germany's history is just, full of history!And the landscape as well as their food, they are also known as one of the cleanest countries in the world.Whoever voted for Greece is...okay, because I agree their food is nice, but the weather is weird and the cities aren't really that nice, tbh.

^ I don't like tropical countries, because only beaches & islands you can see there Germany have resorts, museums, historial monuments(10x better & many thn phil. ) and it has numerous castles. People are nice, and cuisine is superb! The culture is highly original & very Germanic, unlike the filipino culture very hispanic & unoriginal. Choose Germany! It's economically rich, very clean place & people are very nice.

Country with diversity and beauty. Ranging from low lands to highest peaks. The country itself s a world in itself, surrounded by the beautiful himalayas and biodiversity. Lakes, rivers, glaciers, that refreshing breeze and awesome warm welcoming faces all that makes Nepal a beautiful country. It's a country that is not only blessed by the natural beauty but also the kind hearted people who love to live in Harmony...
Less cheaters and great supporters. You forget your tension with smile of people welcoming you in their place and you feel alive looking at gorgeous scenarios around.
Nepal definitely one of the most beautiful countries in the world.

Nepal is undeniably the most beautiful country in the world. 8 of worlds top 10 highest mountains, worlds most adventurous trekking routes, world best rivers for rafting, tough mountains for rock climbing... And the list goes on! Ohh yes, nearly forget to mention, in Nepal beauty is ubiquitous, but not obvious, as its often concealed in details... Just a smile of any Nepalese can melt you.

Nepal is quite small, and an unknown country. The marvels that this country has are not found anywhere, and due to a really great altitude range, and mix of aryan and Mongolian tribes along with Hinduism and buddhism, Nepal is the most beautiful country in the world! Beauty stands as high as the himalayas here in Nepal... Land of beauty, grace, hospitality, discipline, wildness... Land of FUN

Nepal is a nice place to be. The beauty through nature and culture reflects the country. Dynamic people in the sense that they are open and tolerable. And hungry for changes in the positive manners. Coming to Nepal after the Caos in India is rather settling. One will definitely have time for think and re-think one self.

China is the wealthiest country in the world. That's why western empires along with Japan's empire stole a lot of beneficial properties from China that can strengthen their respected societies.

There are a great number of landscapes in China. You can ski and enjoy a frozen world in north China because it's very cold there. Similarly, you can swim in the sea and enjoy an interesting vacation in south China because it's in subtropical area. I believe that you can have a great time when you travel in China!

I am from China and I think China is definitely one of the most beautiful nations in the world. China is one of the oldest countries in the world, so many interesting places to go and I think China is really attractive for foreigners as well.

A huge country with just any type of natural landscape you want, aside from the natural beauty, its rich culture and history - few countries on earth has this marvelous combination.

French Polynesia with about 120 among the most beautiful Islands (Pacific Ocean).
Spread amidst the Pacific Ocean, halfway between Tokyo and Chile's Santiago, the French Polynesian archipelagos are found, 5 in total.
After visiting French Polynesia, and having seen its mixture of spectacular mountain peaks, wild and lush vegetation, and the clearest waters ever, any tripper will be able to understand why Tahiti is often called the "Isle of Love" or "Paradise on Earth".

Splendid area, so many islands, volcanic and and coral, surely the most beautiful atolls we have ever seen. Polynesian are so kind, tranquil and they speak a so typical French, so charming.

This part of France is a real Paradise on earth, lots of splendid coral atolls and volcanic islands with among the most beautiful beaches of the whole world.

Technically not a country...

Considering the fact that in Austria nature remains in peace, while other countries make a tourist attraction out everything. In Austria you can find pure nature and people who would not give this for any price imaginable. Austria is Europeans New Zealand. If you take your time to reach all those places far away from vienna you would go for number one

Between the alpine village and the beauty of Vienna, what is there to hate in Austria ?

How is this all the way down here? It's so awesome there!

England is one of the most underrated countries in Europe in my opinion simply because everyone goes to London and think they've seen England. In reality, London was bombed in WW2 and lost 60% of its beauty. England has so many beautiful landscapes. There's nothing more that represents civilization than the English countryside with its quant villages, churches, cottages, manor houses, etc. All built from local craftsmanship and tradition for centuries.

Full of ugly ignorant inbreds with genetic disorders, bad teeth, obesity and arrogance. They are the worst tourists and a disgrace to the rest of Europe.

England is the green and peasant land. Stunning landscapes, villages, architecture, historic sites, coastlines, beaches, castles, countryside houses, landscape gardens, etc. The world's history runs directly through England and England itself has been one of the most influential nations in history and has been through the most tremendous historic ages that produced some of the greatest architecture styles.

I'm French, I know this 'French Bashing' from English. But I hope it's just for joke, because actually I like, like most of French the English humor and I like the English countryside, famous English landscapes gardens, like the castles, the cities, and yes also the nice beaches. You have a nice country.

I can see the sun rise from my hotel room. It rises up behind the city. Very beautiful. And people are nice too! Cool country!

Korea is a powerful and exciting country It is the opposite of Japan.

I know that South Korea is the best. The result of the top ten is wrong.

I think south korea is a beautiful place.

England, Scotland, and Wales are absolutely beautiful countries filled with beautiful landscapes.

Places like York, Edinburgh, Bath, Conwy, Chester, Lichfield, Cambridge, Oxford, Canterbury, Exeter, Durham, Ely, Lincoln, Salisbury, Truro, Winchester, etc, etc look like something out of an English fairytale or novel.

The rolling countryside of England, the landscapes and castles of Scotland, the green landscapes of Wales are much celebrated. The thatched cottages of England and the castles of all the British Isles have inspired so much creativity, poetry, painters, etc.

The countryside manor houses and the beautiful Cotswolds of England are not only beautiful, but filled with so much treasures and history going back thousands and thousands of years.

Even the more industrial cities like Manchester, Glasgow, Liverpool, etc have beauty and interesting history.

Yes, yes, yes! Beautiful landscapes, beautiful countryside (its countryside and landscapes have inspired the greatest forms of literature and poetry this world has ever seen), beautiful universities (two of the world's oldest), beautiful villages, beautiful parliamentary building, stunning manor houses, beautiful gardens, beautiful anixent gothic cathedrals, beautiful historic cities, beautiful castles.

The English towns, the Welsh countrysides, the Scottish highlands and the Northern Irish beaches are truly unbeatable! Go wherever you want in Britain, a lot is there to see.

Beautiful varied scenery captured in small area. The green fields, national parks and beaches cannot be rivalled anywhere in world.

Simply the best place in this planet..

The thing is Philippines is somewhat poor but have so many beautiful places. Unlike Japan who have traditional buildings and who knows what kind of faith, Philippines excels in the beauty in normal scenery such as plain beaches, mountains and other awesome landscapes. Filipinos strive to become successful and the result? Epic malls, outstanding singers and youth congregations who exemplify the true meaning of values. The most beautiful people too, which obviously shows in dramatic telenovelas compared to the normal American soap opera and complicated Korean shows. Philippines is not only beautiful it's the BEST.

I think that the Philippines is probably the most beautiful country EVER! It is also the best (Not to brag! I'm sharing my opinion! Sorry if I am bragging! )! The food there is delicious! And the beaches are super lush and peaceful! Visit there, and you will never come back home! You will never regret visiting the Philippines! Trust me on this one!

Philippines is rich in natural resources. Its sights are absolutely breath-taking. There are many tourist spots and landmarks in the country that everybody must visit. You won't regret it. And the filipino people are just so hospitable and friendly. You won't feel out of place.

Philippines is a beautiful country. Everything there is beautiful, the beaches, resorts, the provinces, the foods are awesome. I've seen many foreigners came to the Philippines and they said that they want to stay there forever...
Philippines is a happy country too, especially in Christmas...

Pakistan is most beautiful country in world who have planned Capital city which is known as most beautiful capital of world for its greenery and planned city free of pollution and poverty.
Pakistan is having every thing which a tourist want including Rich heritage culture, Beach, beautiful mountains, lush green valleys like mall am jab bah, Neelam etc. , Pakistan have 5 rivers, plains, deserts, platues, fertile lands, beautiful cities, I highly recommend to visit Pakistan,

As a Pakistani I'm not being bias, I know my country's struggles more than people who haven't lived here. Our country has suffered a lot in the name of terrorism, terrorists made our country a "haven" for themselves and we are ashamed our politicians were just busy gaining stolen wealth leaving its citizens with a unbalanced society, with less education and more poverty. Imran Khan has brought more positive changes in few months than previous govt did other than improving infrastructure (metro etc). We needed that good leadership so much. Please don't judge us on what you see on your T.V. I know, we have problems too they are different from your country's but we are progressing more than you think. While its hard to change certain groups of peoples mindsets it isn't impossible to instill optimism in everyone here that's what our country was built upon and what our leader will continue! If anyone gets a chance, do visit our country, especially Hunza. Its beautiful

People who say Pakistanis are terrorists, you just need to stop. Do you know how many people can get murdered and kidnapped in America? No ones talking about that. It's really unfair. Plus how are Pakistanis terrorists? Do you mean that even those little kids are? Laugh out loud. Anyways I'm going to talk about the place now. Pakistan is full of tradition and kind people. Although this is a really poor country, it has snow mountains, deserts, the sea, a lot of malls and way more. The food here is great too. I love the chaat and kebabs here in Pakistan. The kebabs here that they make are PERFECT! When I went to cold stone once in Karachi, the staff was very kind. Yes, there's a cold stone here. I think we need to help Pakistan with the water issues.

Pakistan is beautiful in every way. Th people's hospitality and the stunning landscapes is unbeatable. Please don't be a sheep and call them terrorists. Pakistan has come far given that they have hateful neighbours on both sides. One inciting war and the other murdering Pakistani soldiers on the border. Please don't be a sheep. Pakistan is misunderstood.

What! Scotland is amazing! It is a land which hosts the UK's last remaining real natural zones! From the outer Hebrides to the Scottish highlands to Loch Ness to Mnt Ben Nevis, Scotland is magnificent. It is such a shame that it has always been hiding behind England's and Ireland's backs. Scotland for ever.

Wait what?! No 21?! Beautiful countryside, coastline, mountains. Stunning place. Should be top 5

Hauntingly Beautiful. Marking it below its neighbors to the south and the UK as a whole beggars belief

Most beautiful and friendly country in the world, the culture and customs are second to none
