Mars has the solar system's biggest volcano.
At 13.6 miles high and 370 miles wide, Olympus Mons on Mars' western hemisphere is the largest volcano in our solar system.

It's unknown whether this volcano is still active. But what we do know is that Olympus Mons was able to grow so big because Mars, unlike Earth, has no shifting tectonic plates, so the mountain simply sits over a hot spot that gives it a constant supply of lava.

There are 28 kinds of "co**se flowers."
You might not know about the plant genus Rafflesia, but you may have heard about the "co**se flower," a rare type of jungle plant that attracts pollinating insects to its huge flowers by smelling like death and rot.

In fact, there are 28 distinct species of this rootless, leafless plant, with flowers varying in size from about 5 inches to 40 inches. Most of these flowers take six to nine months to grow and will begin to decay within a few days.

Fun fact: The Pokémon characters Vileplume and Gloom were inspired by this unusual flower.

Arashiyama Bamboo Grove, Japan
Every traveler should experience the ethereal glow and seemingly endless heights of this bamboo grove on the outskirts of Kyoto. The experience even extends beyond the visual realm: In 1996, Japan’s Ministry of the Environment included the sounds here—wood creaking, leaves rustling—as one of the top 100 Soundscapes of Japan.

Khao Sok National Park, Thailand
Escape the over-touristed beach cities of Phuket and Railay for the soaring limestone cliffs and howling gibbons of Khao Sok National Park. Home to the oldest evergreen rainforest in the world, this lakeside landscape is as verdant as they come. After a quick puddle-jumper flight from Bangkok to Suret Thani, hop onto a bus or taxi to shimmering, many-tendriled Cheow Larn Lake. There, you’ll find luxe floating bungalows (some even have jacuzzis), and canoe trips through the dense Thai jungle.

Mount Fuji, Japan
It’s hard to pick the single most beautiful place in Japan, but 12,388-foot Mount Fuji just might take the prize. Visit Lake Kawaguchiko in the spring for some of the best views of the mountain and cherry blossom trees—a postcard-worthy sight if we ever saw one. Or if you’re an avid hiker, plan a trip for mid-July until the end of August, when the snow melts enough to allow access to Fuji’s summit.
