Best Places to Fly Over in a Balloon

By Eddie Prentice Platinum Quality Author

There are many parts of the world that would be wonderful to view from above. Whether they be ancient ruins or urban centres seeing them from a balloon would be an unforgettable experience.

1. Vegas

Vegas is like a giant amusement park for adults. Located in the Nevada desert, the government of Las Vegas has managed to recreate some of the world's most amazing artifacts like the Eiffel Tower and New York City. It would be an amazing experience to fly over all of the hotels and bright lights. To look down on the Palazzo, the Mandarin Oriental and Trump International Hotel. Everything would be so shiny and golden!

2. Iguassu Falls

If Vegas is an ideal urban setting to fly over then Iguassu Falls is certainly the ideal natural one. Iguassu Falls pour between the borders of Argentina and Brazil. They are a force of nature that cannot be reckoned with. Their natural power is a humbling reminder of how vast and beautiful our world is. There are bridges to cross, boats to ride, and paths to walk along. Better yet, why not fly above it all in a hot air balloon.

3. England

From Stonehenge to the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey to Windsor Castle, England is filled with some of history's most important and stunning buildings. The countryside is also extremely beautiful. Surrey, Oxford, Kent, and Henley on Thames all offer some of their own English flavour.

4. Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat represents one of humankind's most astounding and architectural achievements. The Cambodians built it during the Khmer civilization between 802 and 1220 AD. Unfortunately the site was completely covered in forest until 1860 when the French explorer Henri Monhot discovered it and announced its existence to the world.

5. New York City

New York NY has one of the world's most spectacular skylines. This concrete jungle is home to some of the most influential, creative, and cool people on the entire planet. Flying over the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, and the Chrysler Building would be enough to make me feel powerful myself! Not to mention seeing the beauty of Central Park, the Lincoln Centre and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

6. Canada

The Great Lakes, the Rockie Mountains, Toronto, Montreal, Parliament, Quebec City? Take me, take me! Canada has the second largest land mass of any country in the entire world, and across it you can find everything from priaries to forest, mountains, to oceans, tundra, to beaches and sunshine.
