About This Quiz
Got the travel bug -- but not the budget to match? We're here to help with an armchair tour of the world in quiz form! We'll give you three of a country's greatest wonders, natural or manmade, and you guess the nation. Ready? Let's go!
Walk on its Great Wall, and ... do we really need to go on?
Argentina
China
China is one of the world's largest countries in terms of area (and its biggest in terms of population). But many of its landmarks, like the Terracotta Army, the Forbidden City, and the Oriental Pearl Tower are in Beijing and Shanghai.
Japan
Surinam
Visit the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre and the palace at Versailles.
Finland
France
France, especially Paris, is a major tourist destination for travelers from all over the world. Maybe we should forgive Parisians if they get a little crabby in the peak months of June, July and August.
Italy
Japan
In this country, you can visit the Hermitage, Red Square or the huge Lake Baikal.
Canada
Norway
Russia
If you're traveling in summertime, you might want to go to Petrograd (St. Petersburg) for the White Nights festival. A celebration of music and art, it is named for the very long twilights Russians enjoy at northern latitudes.
Sweden

You can see the fantastic Opera House and Harbor Bridge in one city, or head west to see the harsh terrain of the Outback.
Australia
Sydney, of course, is home to the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbor Bridge. But that's just scratching the surface of things to see in this 3 million square mile country.
Canada
The Netherlands
Zambia
See the Taj Mahal and the Golden Temple, or see wildlife in Ranthambore National Park.
Armenia
India
India is another one of the world's most populous countries. If you visit its cities, be prepared to wait in traffic, and in line, and not lose your patience.
Kenya
Paraguay
In Brussels, you can see the Cinquanentaire Arch or the Manneken Pis statue, or just visit Godiva headquarters and refuse to leave until they give you some free chocolate!
Belgium
It does have notable sights, but Belgium is really known for its flavors. Try the fabulous Belgian frites (french fries, but better), waffles, or the aforementioned Godiva chocolate.
Belize
Lithuania
Slovakia

Iceland
Slovakia
Mount Kilimanjaro rules here, but don't miss Serengeti National Park and Daraja la Mungu, the "Bridge of God."
Argentina
Paraguay
Nambia
Tanzania
Tanzania is a southern African nation. There is, of course, no country called "Nambia" -- no matter what you might hear in the news.

See the amazing Iguazu Falls, watch tango dancers in the Recoleta or visit Eva Peron's crypt.
Argentina
Argentina has a variety of climates and outdoor attractions. But you can be forgiven for never leaving its capital, cosmopolitan Buenos Aires.
Italy
Mexico
Surinam
Visit Tivoli Gardens, Christiansborg Palace and the Little Mermaid statue.
Armenia
Denmark
Denmark is a small nation that's made its mark (sorry!) on art and culture. The Little Mermaid statue was inspired by the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen.
India
Qatar
Enjoy the Rijksmuseum, Keukenhof Gardens and the Kinderdijk ("children's dike") in this country.
England
Holland
Holland is part of the "low countries," meaning it has plenty of scenic canals that drain water from its lowlands. WIth those, its windmills and its tulip fields, you'll bring home plenty of vacation photos.
Spain
Wales

See the Christ the Redeemer statue or Copacabana Palace in one of its biggest cities, or the Sao Paulo Museum of Art.
Brazil
Brazil had a moment in the sun with the 2016 winter Olympic Games. They were only slightly marred by an unlockable stadium gate on opening day, a swimming pool that turned green, and the antics of Ryan Lochte.
Canada
Mexico
Uruguay
See the Reichstag, the Brandenburg Gate, and the River Danube.
Bulgaria
Germany
If you love beer, there's only one time to go: October, for Oktoberfest. Bottoms up!
Portugal
Uruguay
It's Blue Lagoon spa is world-famous, but also offers the Gullfoss Waterfall and Jokusarlon lagoon.

Slovenia
Turkey

Here you can visit the Sagrada Familia, see the Aqueduct of Segovia, and of course, browse the Prado Museum.
England
India
Spain
Spain has become a very popular tourist destination for North Americans. We'd say it's having its day in the sun, but hey, with its beaches and great climate, that's redundant.
Surinam
Here you can see Mt. Fuji, the Osaka Castle, or the beautiful torii gate at the Itsukushima Shrine.
China
Japan
Japan is a small nation, but one where there's plenty to see. In addition to formal landmarks, its forests and bathhouses are well worth checking out.
Kenya
Russia
See St. Mary's Basilica, the Copernicus Science Centre, or, for some sobering history, Auschwitz.
Bulgaria
France
Poland
Poland isn't high on the itinerary of many visitors to Europe. Which is unfortunate, since it offers important glimpses of the Holocaust and WWII history.
Switzerland

See the Avenue of the Baobabs, Isalo National Park, or Amber Mountain National Park in this island nation of Africa.
Chad
Libya
Madagascar
Amateur zoologists will be delighted here. Madagascar, an island that broke off the Indian subcontinent, has biodiversity paralleled in few other places on the planet.
Sierra Leone
Visit the Charles Bridge, the Astronomical Clock, and St. Vitus cathedral, all in the capital of Prague.

Denmark
Italy
Surinam
Check out the Vancouver Aquarium, Niagara Falls on its southern border, or see the Peace Tower at this country's parliament.

France
Germany
New Zealand

Here you can see the Gothenburg Opera House, Stockholm Palace and a museum for the group, Abba.
England
Canada
Spain
Sweden
If you like crime fiction, you might have a different definition of landmarks when it comes to Sweden. The bestselling novels of Henning Mankell and Stieg Larsson were both set here (mostly), so mystery fans might just want to walk around its cities visiting all the locations featured in the Kurt Wallander or Lisbeth Salander books.
Visit Ben Nevis (the highest mountain in the UK), Holyrood Palace and Loch Ness.
England
Ireland
Scotland
Scotland has any number of gorgeous outdoor landmarks, like the two mentioned above. If that's not for you, try the self-explanatory "Scotch Whisky Experience" in Edinburgh.

Costa Rica is a popular destination for North Americans who enjoy ziplining in its rain forests and the friendliness of its people -- who, in psychological studies, report a higher degree of happiness and life satisfaction than people in many other nations.

Brazil
Mauritania
Paraguay
South Africa
There's good news and bad news when it comes to South Africa tourism. The good news is that this is a country with great natural beauty and lots of wildlife. The bad news is that Johannesburg has a rather high crime rate. Tourists are advised to take precautions when visiting.
Terrorism and political unrest have put tourists off visiting this nation's pyramids, its Great Sphinx, and the ruins of Luxor.
Albania
Egypt
The chilling effect of terrorism is truly unfortunate. It hurts working Egyptians who rely on the industry and keeps non-Egyptians from seeing some of the world's most interesting historical sites.
Saudi Arabia
India
Climb Jebel Toubai, see the huge Hassan II mosque, and check out the Royal Mausoleum in the capital of Rabat.
Albania
France
Morocco
One of the highlights of Morocco -- besides riding a camel in the desert or bargaining in the souks -- is the food. Moroccans make delicious lamb dishes, fish near the coast, and mint tea with which to wash it all down.
Spain

Visit the Estadio Azteca, the Mayan pyramids or the Basilica de Our Lady de Guadalupe in this country.
Armenia
Kenya

For wildlife-loving types, this country offers Chobe National Park, the Okavango Delta, and its share of the great Kalahari Desert.

Animal lovers can see hippos, rhinos, lions, leopards and many other animals in Botswana's game preserves. Can't afford to go? The BBC's "Top Gear" devoted an entire episode to a Botswana road trip that's well worth watching.
India
Mongolia
Venezuela

Colca Canyon and the natural bridge at Junin are impressive, but Macchu Picchu is its best-known attraction.

Papua New Guinea
Here you can visit Blarney Castle, St. Patrick's Cathedral and Skellig Michael.
