Named a Best Gift Book/Best Travel Book of the Year by the New York Times , Entertainment Weekly , Associated Press, House Beautiful, Business Insider, The Daily Beast, Forbes, Fodor’s, The Points Guy, Seattle Times , and more “This is the comfort food of travel books. . . . This book will sweep you off your feet.” — New York Times Book Review “Gorgeous . . . breathtaking . . . spectacular.” — Publishers Weekly Patricia Schultz curates the world. When she published the original 1,000 Places to See Before You Die , she created not only a new kind of travel book but also a new way of thinking about our experiences and interests. Now Schultz captivates our hearts in the same compelling way her original book spoke to our minds. Moving from eloquent word to breathtaking image, she takes us on a visual journey of the best the world has to offer, and as we turn the pages and pore over these images, we feel it all: joy, curiosity, awe, passion, nostalgia (if we’ve been there), inspiration (because we want to go), and a profound and transforming sense of how lucky we are to live in a world filled with such beauty and wonder—to see tributaries of mist curling over the Great Wall, elephants grazing on the floor of the Ngorongoro Crater, the sun setting on the wild coast of Donegal, masked whirling dancers at a festival in Bhutan. The book itself is a thing of beauty, an oversize feast of more than 1,000 all-new photographs and 544 pages, every spread and page designed to showcase these mesmerizing photographs and hold just enough of Schultz’s lively text that we know why it is we’re looking at them. It is a perfect gift for every traveler, every fan of the original, every dreamer whose Instagram feed is filled with pictures of places near and far. Review: Inspiring Travel Guide and Stunning Coffee Table Book - “1,000 Places to See Before You Die” is a breathtaking travel book that captures the beauty and diversity of the world through vivid photography and engaging descriptions. The deluxe edition makes it even more visually striking, perfect for inspiring wanderlust or planning future adventures. Beyond its content, this book works beautifully as a décor piece—ideal for coffee tables, bookshelves, or office displays—adding color, sophistication, and conversation-starting appeal to any space. Whether you’re a travel enthusiast or design-minded reader, it combines inspiration with aesthetic charm. Review: A book full of memories - Found this coffee table book on a trip and had to order it when I got home. It’s become such a special tradition for my husband and I to mark every place we’ve visited together. Beautiful, inspiring, and so aesthetically pleasing on our shelf.

A book full of memories
Found this coffee table book on a trip and had to order it when I got home. It’s become such a special tradition for my husband and I to mark every place we’ve visited together. Beautiful, inspiring, and so aesthetically pleasing on our shelf.

Love the look and the content
This is the best price for this edition that I have been able to find and it arrived in great condition. Added it as a coffee table book because it matches my decor perfectly but I open it up regularly to look at the great photos, too, which is always my goal when purchasing "decorative" books (Im a reader...so interest is just as important as aesthetics to me). This nails both.

The Best Version Yet!!!
My sister in law has the older paperback version and this newer hardcopy is so much better. A must have for anyone who travels or wants to travel. The perfect cocktail table book. Highly recommend.

Great gift for graduates!
We got these for my niece and nephew upon college graduation. Both really appreciated them. Both were immediately flipping through, looking for places they had been, and for places that they have to go! It was a fun and well received gift I was happy to give.

Great Coffee Table Piece
This book is very hefty and large. It has beautiful pictures and is very insightful. It looks lovely on a coffee table and is definitely a great statement piece if you was something blue to stand out.

Gorgeous "Coffee Table Top" Travel Dream Book
I know I've dated myself with the Headline - so I do hope the younger readers will - GOOGLE IT! I started out with '1000 Places to See Before You Die' Paperback - which was given to me as a retirement gift .. Then I started annual gifting to myself the '1000 Places Calendar...' in 2016-2019, I only leave pages of the places I've not been to and the annual calendar is left with dates/places I need to go to. Fortunately, each year the list is shrinking !! And Now - I've graduated to this Amazing Book highlighting '1000 Places to See Before You Die'. This book's design will open your eyes through photos and a short description of the places and a recommendation list of 'Must Do's' ! My next 'assignment' is to go through the book and highlight with a 'post it' the places I've not traveled to and START MAKING MORE TRAVEL PLANS!!! This World is an Amazing Place !!!!!! Wonderful Sights; Great Culinary Delights; Tremendous opportunities to Meet & Make New Friends !! Soooooooooo - this book is a GREAT HOLIDAY GIFT to GIVE to ANYONE!! Anyone Reading it - Will learn that we're more alike than different and will gain a new appreciation for Travel !! I'm looking forward to spending sometime going through this book and reliving the places I've been & dreaming about the next places I need to go and see!

Ładne wydanie, treść dziwna...
Z jednej strony pięknie wydany album. Z drugiej jednak strony dobór przedstawianych miejsc jest co najmniej zastanawiający. Już na początku zdziwienie: UK + Irlandię omówiono na 35 stronach, a Portugalię na 4 stronach, Austrię na 4 stronach... O Europie Wschodniej nie ma co wspominać. Cała - od Chorwacji poprzez Węgry i Polskę po Estonię - zmieściła się na 15 stronach. Potem jest już tylko ciekawiej. Na USA przeznaczono 90 stron, a na cały Bliski Wschód (Izrael, ZEA, Oman, Katar itd) ... 8 stron. OK, to jest dość ciekawa wizja świata, muszę przyznć, że nie bardzo moja. Skutek jest taki, że niektóre "miejsca, które muszę zobaczyć przed śmiercią" z USA są zupełnie nijakie (pierwszy raz o nich słyszę), a nie ma atrakcji z innych państw, które rzeczywiście są warte zobaczenia. Ale takie prawo autora, żeby dobierać sobie miejsca, które zna i które wydają się być mu ciekawe...
