You have initially devoted only a day, enough to explore the mysterious temple which you have heard about, pick up some souvenirs from the market, and meander around the town before heading to the other destinations on your bucket list.

And you realize that it has been a week already and you still don’t see yourself breaking out from the captivation of the town. By now you have a favorite chill out place, quite possibly a chic bar whose waiters are more than an acquaintance to you, and the receptionist of your rustic guesthouse give you a strange look every time you ask her to stay for a one more day.

You are not the only one, many tourists find themselves entrapped into the charisma of the place, for which they didn’t intended to stay longer. Here’s our pick of some of the euphoric places where time comes to an abrupt stop, and you abandon to the irresistible charm of the destination.

Ubud is the sigh of relief for the fatigued travelers to revive up their mind body and soul. With astutely made Hindu temples, bounteous offerings and blossomed streets, the town has hold onto its spiritual ambience despite of being a tourist hotspot. Sensuous spas pampering affordable treatments are a perfect refuge after soaking up yourself in the vibrant parties of the beachfront resorts here.

Jaunt to Antigua to polish your Spanish or to delve in to the Spanish culture.  Then expect the unexpected, not from the Spanish schools but also by the colorful and intriguing boulevards displaying the cultural magnificence of the area. Brimming with religious spots, historical centers, ornate galleries, and Antigua’s historical vitality has earned UNESCO recognition. If this doesn’t amuse you, than the grandeur colonial structures surely will.

None can match the choices of adventure sports which Queenstown puts to the table; it is the sorcerer which spellbinds the thrill seekers with its conjuring. While others see just the scenic splendor of the region, the locals see a natural playground. Rivers are nursery of jet boating down the streams, hills are for jumping off with a rope tied to your back, and bridges are nothing but stage to perform the bungee jump. The nightlife isn’t average either, with bars outnumbering the number of people, you are provided with rich options of electrifying and entrancing nights.
