The Most Beautiful Places in the World A list of the world's most beautiful, magnificent, wonderful, eye-popping places. Zambezi River's Victoria Falls, along the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe, is considered one of the most beautiful places in the world. That the world is one beautiful place is no secret, however, the worldâs beauty is constantly facing challenges of modernization and globalization. This situation notwithstanding, there still exists some beautiful places, most in their natural form and free from unnecessary pollution.
Venice, Italy, is widely considered to be one of the world's most beautiful cities. It is a city that should be seen with a loved one, and if reports are true, it should be seen before it disappears completely into the surrounding waters. Venice is sinking slowly, but as with most coastal towns and cities, the sea level is also rising. The city was built on marshlands, a sedimentary island within a lagoon off the coast of Italy. Attila the Hun invaded Italy in 452, forcing many inhabitants to flee to the coast.
