Actually 70 as the Avenue of the Baobabs in Madagascar is duplicated on the site list...
"It's no simple task to determine the criteria for the world's most beautiful places. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder – who are we to claim that white-sand beaches with azure waters are any more or less beautiful than jaw-dropping architectural feats, or thick cloud forests brimming with wildlife? We are lucky to live on a planet where a short plane ride will take you from flamingo-pink lakes to vast salt flats, or from rolling vine-covered hills to towering ancient pyramids. For some, it's the people that make a place truly beautiful – smiling, welcoming locals, fascinating social histories & friendly communities that turn a place from simply aesthetically pleasing to the most beautiful place on the planet. For others, it's the food or the history that make a destination that little bit more beautiful. We've rounded up 71 of the world's most breathtaking places to visit." - cntraveller.com
