There are many parts of the world that would be wonderful to view from above. Whether they be ancient ruins or urban centres seeing them from a balloon would be an unforgettable experience.
1.Vegas
Vegas is like a giant amusement park for adults. Located in the Nevada desert, the government of Las Vegas has managed to recreate some of the world’s most amazing artefacts like the Eiffel Tower and New York City. It would be an amazing experience to fly over all of the hotels and bright lights. To look down on the Palazzo, the Mandarin Oriental and Trump International Hotel. Everything would be so shiny and golden!
2.Iguassu Falls
If Vegas is an ideal urban setting to fly over then Iguassu Falls is certainly the ideal natural one. Iguassu Falls pour between the borders of Argentina and Brazil. They are a force of nature that cannot be reckoned with. Their natural power is a humbling reminder of how vast and beautiful our world is. There are bridges to cross, boats to ride, and paths to walk along. Better yet, why not fly above it all in a hot air balloon.
3.England
From Stonehenge to the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey to Windsor Castle, England is filled with some of history’s most important and stunning buildings. The countryside is also extremely beautiful. Surrey, Oxford, Kent, and Henley on Thames all offer some of their own English flavour.
4.Angkor Wat
Angkor Wat represents one of humankind’s most astounding and architectural achievements. The Cambodians built it during the Khmer civilization between 802 and 1220 AD. Unfortunately the site was completely covered in forest until 1860 when the French explorer Henri Monhot discovered it and announced its existence to the world.
5.New York City
New York NY has one of the world’s most spectacular skylines. This concrete jungle is home to some of the most influencial, creative, and cool people on the entire planet. Flying over the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, and the Chrysler Building would be enough to make me feel powerful myself! Not to mention seeing the beauty of Central Park, the Lincoln Centre and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
6.Canada
The Great Lakes, the Rockie Mountains, Toronto, Montreal, Parliament, Quebec City? Take me, take me! Canada has the second largest land mass of any country in the entire world, and across it you can find everything from priaries to forest, mountains, to oceans, tundra, to beaches and sunshine.

I want to go on a date with certain activities (listed below) on my mind. However, I don’t have a car and I also don’t know places near Quezon City where I can do these things so I hope you guys can help me. Here are my options:
-Kite-flying (can I do this in Quezon City Circle?)
-Hot air balloon ride (I think this is the one I would like to do the most but I don’t know if I can do this somewhere in Manila)
-Ride a bike built for two (Is there a bike for two in QC circle?)
-sunset cruise in Harbor Square in CCP Complex. (how do I get there?)

i would like to know of any companies that offer hot air balloon trips in Prague. am visiting the city in september and thought this would be an amazing way to view the city.
any advice welcomed.
I live in Prague but have never done a hot air balloon trip over the city. However I took a look on the Czech language search engine for you and if you take a look at
www.balony.cz then you will see a site about ballooning. It is in Czech language but I would suggest that you drop them an email in English asking for help and if they can then they will respond I am sure.
