My wife and I love travel and have been going on adventures every chance we get since the day we got married. Our home base is in the PNW in the U.S. I love history, so World Heritage Sites are always one of the first items I look up when we are travelling to a new place. I try to visit a new country every year.

Segovia by 2Flow2

Segovia (Inscribed)

Segovia

June 2025 visit. Segovia will forever be pitted against its sibling city, Toledo. (Both are medieval towns that easily done as a daytrip from Madrid.) While I enjoyed Toledo more, …

Granada (Inscribed)

Granada

I visited in June 2025. My experience of the Alhambra was certainly unique...! There are some important things to note when visiting:

  • As people have mentioned, book your …
Tarraco by 2Flow2

Tarraco (Inscribed)

Tarraco

For me, Tarraco (Tarragona as it is called today) is a light 3.5 stars for me, bordering on a 3. As you can gather from the other reviews on here, …

Poblet Monastery by 2Flow2

Poblet Monastery

I have to agree with Andrew_Kerr that this site deserves higher ratings than it was previously receiving, and from reading the older reviews it seems to be largely due to …

Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley

This is an area with some very beautiful hikes! I recommend a visit after seeing it in May 2025!

Now, whether this site is of "outstanding value to humanity", …

Vall de Boi by 2Flow2

Vall de Boi (Inscribed)

Vall de Boi

Though Hubert's review is over a decade old, it was the most recent one written before my May 2025 trip to Vall de Boi and I have to say, not …

Palau de la Musica Catalana & Hospital de Sant Pau by 2Flow2

Palau de la Musica Catalana &… (Inscribed)

Palau de la Musica Catalana & Hospital de Sant Pau

Visited in May 2025. These two works by the Catalan architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner are both excellent locations to visit, and as other reviewers have said, are just as …

Works of Antoni Gaudí

Visited in May 2025. This site maintains a very high rating for a reason. The work is incredible.

One recommendation I hadn't seen on any of the reviews so …

Aranjuez (Inscribed)

Aranjuez

Some World Heritage Sites loom large and will stun and wow people no matter who you are or where you are travelling from. I think of my time at Victoria …

Vizcaya Bridge by 2Flow2

Vizcaya Bridge (Inscribed)

Vizcaya Bridge

I was expecting to be pretty underwhelmed by this WHS (after all, it is just a bridge...) but it was actually quite a bit better than I expected! I visited …

El Escurial by 2Flow2

El Escurial (Inscribed)

El Escurial

My visit to El Escorial was in November 2024 as a part of my nine months living in Madrid, Spain, and I have to say, El Escorial continues to stand …

Oporto by 2Flow2

Oporto (Inscribed)

Oporto

Oporto! March 2025 visit. I think my expectations for this city were a bit too high. It's certainly nice and you won't regret visiting here, but in my opinion the …

Medina Azahara by 2Flow2

Medina Azahara (Inscribed)

Medina Azahara

I was pretty underwhelmed with this site during my March 2025 visit (apparently just days after Alikander99 was there!) but I believe this is because I did not hire a …

Cordoba by 2Flow2

Cordoba (Inscribed)

Cordoba

I did this as a joint-trip to Córdoba and Sevilla in March 2025 with my wife and a friend of ours, and while I wanted to like Córdoba more, I …

Mudejar Architecture of Aragon by 2Flow2

Mudejar Architecture of Aragon (Inscribed)

Mudejar Architecture of Aragon

This WHS is a little bit weird to "review" as are many of the dispersed-location sites that highlight "examples of" a certain style of something. (Whether that be something natural …

Seville by 2Flow2

Seville (Inscribed)

Seville

Sevilla! Gorgeous! In our Sevilla/Córdoba trip, I had wanted to like Córdoba more, but Sevilla was just too darn good. Visited March 2025.

The other reviews already describe …

La Chaux-de-Fonds / Le Locle by 2Flow2

La Chaux-de-Fonds / Le Locle (Inscribed)

La Chaux-de-Fonds / Le Locle

I visited this WHS in July 2023. We were staying in Geneva with a cousin who was working at CERN, and I had heard about La Chaux-de-Fonds being famous as …

Medina of Fez by 2Flow2

Medina of Fez (Inscribed)

Medina of Fez

Wow, I can't believe this site hasn't had a new review in nearly seven years! However, it's not as if this 1,000+ year old medina has changed much in such …

Rabat by 2Flow2

Rabat (Inscribed)

Rabat

Rabat is a solid WHS worth seeing. (I visited in Feb 2025.) It's not the most amazing tourist destination compared to other cities, but it holds its own as a …

Hal Saflieni Hypogeum (Inscribed)

Hal Saflieni Hypogeum

There were two deaf people in my group of visitors. At the beginning of the tour, everyone is given a fully automatic hand-held speaker to hold up to their ear …
