        Plan your 2020 vacation. The following four places are your fantastic destinations. You can enjoy a completely different experience.

        Panama

        Costa Rica and the Caribbean often enjoy much more popularity than Panama, but visitors should consider the centre American country if they want a" less­crowded paradise". The travel site states," Here, horses are still the primary means of transportation and local fishermen serve fresh seafood and fruit from their home kitchens for roughly $ 6 a plate."

        Israel

    If you're looking for a once­in­a­lifetime experience, National Geographic Travel says visitors should head to Jerusalem to celebrate Easter with thousands of pilgrims (朝圣者). If the crowds get too huge, visitors are told to take a boat ride to King Herod's 2000­year­old Masada fortress(要塞) or set off on a peaceful morning boat ride across the sea of Galilee.

        Svalbard

        If you're a fan of winter activities, but are in need of some sun, then perhaps a trip to Svalbard is a good choice. National Geographic Travel notes," The Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard is located about 620 miles south of the North Pole. In late spring, the sun never falls below the horizon—meaning you can take in all the Vitamin D you desire." Popular activities in the area include hiking and wildlife spotting.

        Namibia

        During spring, Namibia is regarded as the perfect destination with reduced travel costs on cooler evenings. In late May, National Geographic Travel says that the watering holes start to dry up again, which attracts giraffes and black rhino from their hiding spots. If you're fond of adventurous exploration, head to the Namibia Desert for a spot of sand boarding.
