In 2023, the virus is still not completely contained around the world, and it seems that there will still be a mood of self-restraint. Under such circumstances, there are wars happening all over the world, and you have to carefully consider the area you are traveling to. It is possible that a new war will break out. I tried to predict the tourist spots that are likely to boom in 2023.
Recommended Tourist Destinations and Trend Predictions for 2023
Over the past few years, we have been feeling restless due to the effects of pandemics and other factors. In 2023, we will probably continue to travel in the same self-restraint mood as in 2022. Under such circumstances, I tried to predict what kind of place would be popular. I listed it under the condition that it is not affected by the virus and is safe.
nature spot
It is a place where nature spreads that is likely to become a recommended spot in 2023. The number of tourists who want to live a simple life in the middle of nature will increase. I think that it is especially recommended for areas that are designated as World Natural Heritage Sites. If it is a natural spot, I think it will be popular because you can move around in various ways without worrying about viruses.
yellowstone national park
Yellowstone National Park is a World Heritage Site spanning the states of Idaho, Montana and Wyoming in the United States, and is also the oldest national park in the world. Yellowstone National Park is located in a volcanic region and is home to 50% of the hot springs on Earth.
Los Glaciares National Park
Los Glaciares National Park in Argentina is a World Heritage Site located at the southernmost tip of the Andes Mountains. It has the third largest glacier in the world after Antarctica and Greenland. While global warming is becoming a problem, only glaciers are still continuing the same activity as the ice age more than 10,000 years ago.
Great Barrier Reef
The Great Barrier Reef is one of the world’s largest coral reefs with a total length of 2,300km. In 1981, it was registered as a World Natural Heritage Site for the first time in the world as a coral reef. Its birth dates back to about 18 million years ago, when limestone was deposited and coral began to live.
Yakushima
Yakushima is located about 60 km south-southwest of Cape Sata on the Osumi Peninsula in Kagoshima Prefecture. 21% of the island area is registered as a World Heritage Site. More than 90% of the island is covered with forests, and there are so many endemic species of plants and animals that it is said to be the Galapagos of the East.
Plitvice Lakes National Park
Plitvice Lakes National Park is located about 110 km south of Zagreb in Croatia. There are 1,146 species of plants in the park, as well as wild animals, including bears, wolves, otters, and nearly 300 species of birds.
local spot
Local travel is likely to continue to get a lot of attention, even as the virus pandemic has yet to subside. If you travel within a short distance from your hometown, you will not be criticized and the risk of infection will be reduced. It will be even more popular if the area is not an urban area but a rural area. Since it is easy to travel, you can travel as soon as you have a few days off. Traveling to your hometown is also recommended for busy people.
virtual travel
Perhaps one of the actions taken by those who want to avoid the risk of contracting the virus is virtual travel. Virtual travel doesn’t give you a physical experience, but the experience of virtual travel allows you to actually consider traveling physically if you really want to go. If you don’t want to take risks, you can also try virtual travel. Virtual trips can be enjoyed online, even at home.
Areas not recommended
There are some areas that we do not recommend. With a major war going on right now, making the wrong travel destination can cost you your life. We will give you areas that are considered dangerous in 2023, so let’s avoid them.
Ukraine/Russia
The invasion of Ukraine started by Putin’s madness in 2022 is not over yet. Russia’s defeat is certain, Russia’s violations of international law are becoming more prominent, and the inhumane carnage continues. This invasion is expected to continue until around the summer of 2023. Until then, approaching this area can be very dangerous.
Central Asia
Security in Central Asia is deteriorating due to the rapid weakening of Russia’s military and economy. Fighting has begun in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, confirming the waning influence of Russia. In addition, the security situation is expected to worsen in the vicinity of Georgia and Armenia, as disturbing movements are becoming apparent.
east asia
China is the world’s problem child more than Russia. As the dictatorship system is further strengthened, an invasion of Taiwan is becoming a reality. Furthermore, North Korea has fired missiles at Japan, and there is a good chance that war will break out. East Asia today may be the most stressed region in the world.
