5: Huangshan, China
Covered with cliffs, valleys and rolling hills, Huangshan is an adventure for both new couples and old love. Not only is it the perfect place to form a lifetime of stories, but it’s also home to “Lovers Locks” – a local tradition where couples hang entwining locks over the Cliffside. According to legend, if you climb the mountain, seal your feelings in locks, and then fling the key into the depths below, your love will be as eternal and unbreakable as the memento you leave hanging.
4: Gstaad, Switzerland
What better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than to take your sweetheart to the birthplace of chocolate?
Tucked away in the Swiss Alps, Gstaad is an unpronounceable (but beautiful) choice for a romantic getaway. Go skiing, hiking, or snowboarding; take a stroll around the village for restaurants and coffee shops; hop a ride on the lift and take your breath away with the beauty of the slopes. With only 3000 permanent residents, Gstaad is the perfect place to enjoy some quality time with your loved one – to renew your old vows or consider new ones. The scenery is always lovely, the mountains are forever covered in snow, and the holiday villas are both luxuriously modern and full of old-fashioned charm.
Best of all, when you’re done sightseeing, you can head back into the warmth of your hotel and enjoy a nice cuddle with your beau. It’s romantic AND practical!
3: San Blas Islands, Panama

Not a fan of snow? Try the opposite climate instead – the blue skies and sandy beaches of the western hemisphere.
Home to over a dozen islands, Panama is the perfect getaway for beach hoppers, and the San Blas Islands offer a variety of activities for anyone interested in surfing, snorkelling or swimming. Take your pick of accommodations – pamper yourself with a luxurious four-star hotel or stay directly on the beach in a bungalow. Or maybe you’d prefer to rent a cabin and enjoy some r&r with your honey?
Choose Panama and throw your love into the light of the sun. Glory in it. You only live once, and you can celebrate it here.
2: Venice, Italy
If you don’t have a lot of time for your Valentine’s Day getaway, you might be wondering how romantic a short break can really be. If this is the case, look no further than Venice.
One of the most famous tourist destinations in the world, Venice earns its reputation by offering an entire city’s worth of picturesque restaurants and romantic rendezvous. Want to dine over the lights of the palazzo? How about riding down the Grand Canal in a gondola for two? You could spend a lifetime exploring this ancient place and all its wonders, which is so beautiful than its lower towns have places like “the Basilica of St. Mary” and “the Bridge of Sighs.” But if you’re pressed for time, that’s okay, too. You can make it work on any schedule. Venice is full of places to kiss!
1: Agra, India
In 1632, the emperor of India wanted to build a tribute in memory of his wife. It took over ten years and a few hundred tons of white marble and stone, but today the Taj Mahal rests as proudly as ever did, a lasting symbol of love and devotion.
If you really want to knock her socks off this Valentine’s Day, consider a holiday to India. It’s hard to get more romantic than one of the most famous love stories in the world, and one of the grandest, most enduring symbols of all time.
