Travel, five global destinations inspired by Peach Fuzz
«Our latest travel trends report revealed thatCultural exploration is a top priority for travelers. This year’s color evokes images of sunsets, breathtaking architecture and dreamy landscapes, and will certainly be able to inspire the desire to travel” he explains Stefano Maglietta, Skyscanner travel expert. So here are the five “peach fuzz” destinations for 2024.
1. Hawa Mahal, Jaipur, India: among the most famous palaces in the world
Known as the Palace of the Winds, is the symbol of the city of Jaipur, capital of the Indian state of Rajasthan. Jaipur is the Pink City, so nicknamed because of the warm peach-pink hue that colors houses and buildings.
The Palazzo dei Venti is no exception, in pink and red sandstone, and so nicknamed because of its 953 small windows decorating it, through which fresh air entered to be circulated in the rooms, a sort of air conditioning ante-literam. The palace, built in 1799, had the function of allowing the women of the maharaja’s family to be able to witness daily life outside without being noticed.
2. Sanctuary of Truth, Thailand: the largest wooden temple in the world
The best times to visit the Sanctuary of Truth in Thailand are at sunrise and sunset when the sun dyes the monument with a pink hue that invites reflection and prayer. On the Gulf of Siam, the Sanctuary of Truth is a temple built entirely of teak wood according to ancient manufacturing techniques and Thai and Khmer traditions.
In fact, no nails or metals were used but everything is “fitted” and full of carvings and details. Each sculpture tells of philosophical and religious themes and this temple, located in Pattaya, it is the largest in the world built of wood and is still under construction today.
3. Cappadocia, Türkiye among the destinations inspired by Peach Fuzz
Legendary and at times magical placeCappadocia is a Turkish region characterized by very particular rock formations called Fairy Chimneysthat is to say Fairy chimneys, inside which houses have been carved.
Also in this case the two ideal moments to best enjoy the experience are sunrise and sunset when the stone takes on iridescent pink hues. Between unique experiences in this area, a hot air balloon flight at dawnjust as the sun rises over the horizon.
4. Deadvlei, Namibia: the Dead Valley full of contrasts
Is considered one of the most evocative and photogenic landscapes in the world. It’s about the Deadvlei, Namibiain the heart of the Namib-Naukluft Park, within the Namib desert, among the largest and most beautiful on the planet.
The contrast between the clear blue sky, the black trees burned by the sun and there for almost 1000 years and the intense red dunes, due to the ferrous composition of the sand, make it a truly unique landscape. The valley, whose literal meaning is “swamp of death”, it is surrounded by dunes up to 400 meters high, among the highest in the world.
5. The Wave, Arizona, the big wave
Considered a real natural jewel, it is a kind of wave carved into the rock. The particular formation is located within the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument in Arizona although the trailhead to the sandstone formation is in Utah. Rather difficult to visit, in fact you have to see The Wave participate in some sort of lottery as only 16 to 64 people are admitted daily, to preserve the place.
A word of caution: in summer temperatures can reach 100° and there are few shaded areas. In winter it can also snow and freeze, so pay attention to the period in which you choose to go.
