World’s highest bar
Imagine a scintillating blue-hued club pulsing with world-class DJs spinning 490m above sea level. At OZONE, the world’s highest bar at The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong, you can drink, shimmy and indulge your sybaritic desires. Overlooking Hong Kong’s shimmering peninsula, the rooftop bar oozes exclusivity, with its private rooms, balcony and walls adorned with leather bearing leaf vein patterns.
World’s highest 360-degree infinity pool
On top of the Palm Tower, 200m above sea level, Aura Skypool offers million-dollar views of Dubai’s iconic landmarks, including The Palm Jumeirah, the Burj Al Arab and Ain Dubai. Along with those views, guests can enjoy chilled-out beats while lying on double sunbeds or in a cabana. Order from a menu of cocktails and bar bites bursting with flavour that take their cue from Asian cities, like Gochujang cauliflower popcorn and Szechuan pepper squid with lime aioli.
World’s largest cave
This colossal marvel is one of life’s greatest coincidences. Originally discovered by a local woodcutter who had no interest in the labyrinth, the world’s largest cave would have gone unnoticed if British explorers hadn’t found it by accident. Its extensive web of waterways at Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park has drawn visitors for centuries due to its incredible stalagmites and diverse wildlife, including squirrels, flying foxes, and snakes. In terms of scale, it is said that the cave could fit any of the world’s other largest caves easily while one of its passages can accommodate a Boeing 747.
World’s largest underwater restaurant
How about a view of Nordic aquatic creatures to accompany your 18-course degustation meal? Submerged 5.5m in Norway’s frigid waters in Lindesnes, the Michelin-starred restaurant presents an ethereal dining experience for the adventurous. Designed by the innovative Snøhetta, the 495-sq m space immerses you in Neptune’s wondrous kingdom with a seafood-forward menu highlighting Norwegian wildlife and berries.
World’s largest National Park
It may be difficult to grasp the size and magnitude of Greenland’s national park. It spans an expanse of 972,000 sq km — a size that rivals 29 of the world’s 195 countries. Boasting some of Greenland’s most extraordinary geographical landscapes and wildlife, this massive wonder is home to the likes of polar bears, reindeers, arctic foxes and snowy owls. If you’re lucky, you may even catch a glimpse of humpback whales and packs of harp seals gliding through its enigmatic seas. It is highly recommended to join an Arctic expedition to get the exclusive access any adventurer dreams of.
World’s largest flower garden
Aptly named for its glorious floral displays, this valley of vibrant blooms houses larger-than-life installations such as Emirates A380, a botanic recreation of Emirate’s flagship carrier and an entire Smurf village. Hopeless romantics can fall in love all over again at the Heart Tunnel as they stroll hand-in-hand down a field of hearts and flowers with their partners.
