Sperlonga, Italy, is home to fewer than 4,000 full-time residents, making it a prime place to go for some peace and solitude. Its shoreline is also a Blue Flag certified beach, meaning its water quality, sustainability, and environmental management practices are among the best in the world.

In 1995, the teenager was leaving a rap band rehearsal with friends when they crossed paths with three National Front militants who were putting up posters in support of the Front's founder and then leader, Jean-Marie Le Pen. Ibrahim was shot in the back as he ran to catch his bus.

Stretching along Mexico's Pacific Coast 200 scenic miles north of Puerto Vallarta, the Riviera Nayarit is rich with pristine golden beaches, lush forests, and sunset views over the waters of the Bahía de Banderas. Resorts brands from Auberge and Four Seasons to Rosewood have planted their flags in recent years, but what makes this region most appealing has been here all along.

Few cities in the world exude as much elegance as Paris, where every boulevard seems to have a story and every building appears a work of art. The City of Light has a way of capturing the imagination of even the most seasoned traveler-its allure magnified by its architectural beauty, from the symmetry of its avenues flanked by Haussmannian buildings to the wrought-iron flourishes of Belle Époque balconies.
