The world is full of unusual, mysterious, undiscovered yet breathtaking and beautiful places waiting to be explored. Most of them are barely visited by foreigners. Their nature, the culture and tradition are the things that mark those places unknown to the world. We would like to represent you some beauties that the world hardly heard for which are however highly recommendable places for a peaceful and unusual getaway.
Nauru
The Republic of Nauru, which was formerly known as Pleasant Island is a little country in the Central Pacific forming part of Micronesia. Its neighbor islands Banaba, Tuvalu, Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea, Marshal Islands and the Federal Republic of Micronesia are more or less 300 km away from it. Only Vatican City and Monaco are smaller than Nauru which has a territory of about 21 square km and only about 10.000 inhabitants, what makes it the smallest state in the South Pacific.

It might happen to be the least-known country in the region, however owning one of the most beautiful landscapes.
