There are beautiful lakes. There are stunning lakes. And then there’s Moraine Lake—a lake so electric in color, it feels like nature broke out the neon paint. Nestled in the heart of Banff National Park, deep within the Valley of the Ten Peaks, this glacial masterpiece doesn’t just belong on postcards—it *is* the postcard.

At the base of towering limestone cliffs in the desert of Deir el-Bahari stands one of Egypt’s most elegant and enigmatic structures: the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut. Blending into the cliffs like it was born from them, this three-tiered masterpiece tells the story of a woman who ruled like a god—and made sure the world would never forget it.
