The countryside is also a place of leisure, where there is leisure. Now, due to the deterioration of the urban environment and the increasingly crowded urban centers, more and more urbanites are beginning to choose to go to the countryside for vacation or home. Check out some of the most beautiful villages in the world.


1. Westhaven Fishing Village, Malta


Paramount Pictures and Disney built the village in 1980 based on the comic strip "Popeye" by E. C. Segar. Many of the world's most famous sites seem to be isolated from the rest of the world, and so is Popeye Village.


Although the village faces the sea, there are only a few small piers only for villagers and tourists to play. A short road connects here from Merreh Bay, the only access between the village and the outside world.


On the side of the road, low and thick vegetation covers the withered and yellow land, along the way there are peaceful and peaceful villages dotted, as well as mud-colored houses, as well as colored doors and windows inlaid with wood, and perhaps there is a lazy cat lying on the windowsill.


On the other side of the road, there is a vast and quiet sea, so calm that you can't even see the waves, quietly spreading into the distance, connecting with the sky on the horizon.


2. Matamata, Waikato, New Zealand


The village, famous for filming the Lord of the Rings movie The Lord of the Rings trilogy, has remained in its natural state to this day. Snow-capped peaks, golden beaches, crystal clear lakes, and lush virgin forests.


3. The village of Havastadt, Austria


Hallstatt is a village in the Salzkammergut region of Upper Austria, Austria, on the shore of Lake Hallstatt at an altitude of 511 meters. Historically, this area has been rich in salt, so it is also known as "the most beautiful town in the world" or "the oldest salt capital in the world".


The climate here is warm and suitable for tourism all year round. This lakeside town, nestled between precipitous slopes and a jewel-like emerald lake, is full of fairytale-like homes.


4. Bourtange, The Netherlands


Bourtange City, one of the six "star fortresses" in the world, is a small village in the eastern part of the Groningen province of the Netherlands, and is also part of the Flachtwerder Autonomous Region. Visitors can explore the historical relics of early Europeans and their life at that time.


The city center is a square structure with two wooden openable and closed suspension bridges and a star-shaped moat.


5. Cinque Terre, Italy


On the proud list of World Heritage Sites in Italy, the "Cinque Terre", which is surrounded by mountains and sea, is ordinary and unique. The azure waters and the quirky and dangerous peaks give these five small fishing villages a picturesque and intoxicating beauty lying quietly in the Ligurian seaside mountains.


6. Reine, Norway


Reine is located in the southeastern part of Norway's Lofoten Islands and is known as "Norway's most beautiful village" with a population of just over 300 people. Despite its remote location, its purity and beauty attract many tourists, who come here to experience activities such as boating, canoeing, whale watching, biking and bird watching in addition to fishing.
