I always wanted to see Mount Rushmore. It shocks me that someone could take a mountain and carve faces at a time when there wasn’t the technology there is today.

Stonehenge. It looks so peaceful. It seems like a place that, when you go there, it’s eye-opening and enlightening.

I’m very much into the Romanticism movement in art. Somehow I came across a fabulous marble sculpture in a cemetary in Barcelona, Spain known as “The Kiss of Death.” It’s the angel of death planting a kiss upon the forehead of a young man. It’s chilling yet romantic at the same time. Someday I’ll see it.

The Louvre. It has all the great art in the world. I want to see Nike of Samothrace because it’s so impressive.

I would choose the Naqsh-e Jahan Square in Isfahan, Iran. Growing up, explorers and adventurers fascinated me. The monuments aging back thousands of years stand as a unique way to immerse ourselves in our history.

Easter Island. I’m intrigued by the mystery of these statues. Nobody has ever unraveled it. It’s a bit like Stonehenge, but with heads.

Mount Everest. I’m not sure if I would actually climb it, but it seems like such an impossible feat that I feel like I need to see it.

As long as we’re dreaming here, might as well dream big. I would like to visit Bahá’í temples on all seven continents because each is architecturally amazing and each is surrounded by beautiful gardens. I grew up in Chicago and the first time my mom took me to the Bahá’í temple there, I told her, “This is what a temple should look like!”

Petra, Jordan. This monument is what’s left of the capital of the ancient Nabatean Kingdom. It’s good to be reminded that there’s a much larger world than the little one I live in.

I would explore the good ole USA first. There are so many great things here I have yet
to see.

The Polynesian statues in Fiji would be a cool destination.

The Great Barrier Reef. It can’t be replicated. I don’t even scuba dive, but I just want to see it.
MaryAnn Smith, Marlton
