Lost River Gorge is a testament to the power and wonder of nature. It was formed over hundreds of years before recorded time by natural forces and winds along the Lost River, which comes in and out of your view as you explore the magnificent gorges and boulder caves along boardwalks lit by lanterns.

In Luleå, where the sky holds the potential for enchantment, keep an extra eye on the clear weather, especially during times of heightened solar activity or specific seasons. If you're fortunate, the stunning Northern Lights, Aurora Borealis, might grace the heavens with their spectacular dance. To enhance your chances of witnessing this celestial display, venture away from the city centre's light pollution. For first-time visitors, seeking guidance from the Luleå Tourist Center in Kulturens Hus is recommended.

Located in Guzelyurt, the Morphou Archaeology and Nature Museum is a unique attraction that combines natural history and archaeology. Originally the palace of the Bishop of Morphou, the building now houses a museum that opened in 1979 after restoration. The ground floor showcases a collection of stuffed animals native to Cyprus, while the upper floors exhibit a wide range of archaeological finds from the Neolithic and Bronze Ages, including displays from the Tumba Tou Skuru settlement. The courtyard serves as an open-air museum, featuring pieces from the Classical, Hellenistic and Roman periods. The museum's most notable artefacts are the 'Golden Leaves of Soli', discovered in 2005, which include a breathtaking tiara of delicately intertwined gold leaves. Another significant piece is the 2nd-century AD statue of the Anatolian Goddess Artemis of Ephesus, found at the Salamis ruins in 1980. Just around the corner from the popular St Mamas Church and Icon Museum, the Morphou Archaeology and Nature Museum is a rewarding visit for those interested in the rich history and natural beauty of Northern Cyprus.

Al-Shafi'i Mosque is one of the oldest mosques in Jeddah, with foundations dating to the earliest centuries of Islam. While much of the current structure reflects 16th-century Ottoman style, its historic mihrab (prayer niche) is believed to be nearly 1,400 years old. The mosque is named after Imam Al-Shafi'i, a foundational scholar of Sunni Islamic jurisprudence. The building has been carefully restored, revealing intricate carvings and vibrant colour details. Non-Muslim visitors are welcome to enter outside of the five daily prayer times. Appropriate attire is required, and shoes must be removed before stepping onto the carpeted prayer areas.
