We're all under the same sun: Terrific magical places

Your eyes are about to trick you. This is not photoshopped or taking badly: this is a very real lake called  Lake Sørvágsvatn (also known as Lake Leitisvatn) at Faroe Islands. The lake is the largest in the islands, and the lake appears as if it’s lifted hundreds of metres above the sea, with the ocean under its placid waters.

But  Lake Sørvágsvatn is actually no more than about 30m above sea level. A steep cliff in front of the lake and the perfect camera angle make the lake appear to be higher than it really is.

Another breathtaking landscape is situated in in Ryfylke, Norway. It's the spectacular precipice of Preikestolen, proper of a fantasy film rather than a real location. 

Preikestolen is a rocky 25m by 25m rocky plateau that towers 604m above the clear waters of lake Lysefjord.

But one of my favourite locations ever is a castle in Southwest Bavaria called Neuschwanstein Castle, a Romanesque castle that is is said that inspired Disneyworld's Cinderella Castle and Dineyland's Sleeping Beauty Castle. 

Actually, the castle was originally built in 1869 by King Ludwig II, ruler of Bavaria. After his death in 1886, it was opened to the public and today more than 1.3 million tourists visit it each year.
