Destinations of the Day
Istanbul, Turkey
  • Resident population: 12,569,041 Annual visitors: 3,994,000 (est.)
  • Major features: mosques, Turkish baths, palaces, nightlife, bazaars
  • 25,570 TripAdvisor reviews of 744 accommodations, 147 attractions and 864 restaurants
Historic and modern, European and Asian — that's Istanbul. The city at the junction of two continents is home to ancient structures like the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque in the Old City, as well as modern businesses, hotels, restaurants and nightlife in the New City.
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
  • Resident population: 1,422,000 Annual visitors: 6,120,000 (est.)
  • Major features: shopping, historic sites, beaches, nightlife, golf courses
  • 16,376 TripAdvisor reviews of 489 accommodations, 72 attractions and 374 restaurants
With its ultramodern skyline, it's easy to forget that Dubai, part of the United Arab Emirates, was once a small town of Bedouin traders.
Honolulu, Hawaii
  • Resident population: 374,676 Annual visitors: 1,733,000 (est.)
  • Major features: beaches, surfing, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head
  • 32,524 TripAdvisor reviews of 407 accommodations, 207 attractions and 1,129 restaurants
If you visit Honolulu simply for the wide Pacific beaches, the striking views of Ko'olau's pali (cliffs) and the laid-back "aloha" feeling, you'll be missing out on much this city has to offer.
Bangkok, Thailand
  • Resident population: 5,658,953 Annual visitors: 10,350,000 (est.)
  • Major features: temples, palaces, nightlife
  • 31,560 TripAdvisor reviews of 714 accommodations, 200 attractions and 612 restaurants
Bangkok is a city to overload the senses. Streets are crowded by tuk-tuks (motorized tri-shaws) and the occasional elephant weaving through congested traffic.
Montreal, Canada
  • Resident population: 1,620,693 Annual visitors: 679,000 (est.)
  • Major features: churches, professional sports, Underground City
  • 20,165 TripAdvisor reviews of 365 accommodations, 276 attractions and 1,946 restaurants
The "joie de vivre" is palpable and contagious in this vibrant, culturally diverse and cosmopolitan city of two million inhabitants.
