Top of the list as the place most people want to visit is
Grand Canyon in
Nevada USA.
Grand Canyon stretches for 227 miles and in some parts is 18 miles wide and one mile deep. More than five million people visit the area every year. The runner-up is
Great Barrier Reef, Australia.
reef is made up of approximately 2900 coral reefs, covering an area of 350,000 square kilometers. However, the reef may be one of the favorite destinations in the world but it is also one of the most fragile wonders. The third choice is
Disney World,
