How to choose
For discovery, Atlas Obscura and UNESCO's World Heritage map are great starting points. For a feel of a place before you go, use Street View, Mapillary or walking videos.
Trip planners such as Wanderlog keep bookings and places in one map; Rome2rio finds combinations of transport you might not think of.
Always check entry rules and travel advice with official government sources.
