Some of the most beautiful Winter landscapes

Aoraki is mainly known for its Lake Pukaki and Mount Cook, New Zealand's highest mountain towering over it. Located on New Zealand's South Island, there's no landscape quite like this one, which comes to life in winter when the shimmering snow reflects into the lake.

An underrated Winter destination, Tokyo is simply stunning year-round. Ginkgo Alley in Tokyo is a path that is as beautiful in summer as in winter. This natural tunnel then turns into a snow corridor offering a beautiful view and an amazing walk.

How could there be winter without pine trees? Here, they stand beside the frozen Muonionjoki River, which couldn’t resist the bitter cold of northern Finland. And who needs Northern Lights when the sky comes alive anyways? Undoubtedly there's nowhere quite like Lapland when it comes to stunning winter landscapes.

If you don't know where to go this winter, the gorgeous hotels on Lake Hallstatt in Austria might just be waiting for you. There, you will enjoy the picture perfect views when drinking hot chocolate.

New York truly comes alive at Winter, and Central Park becomes even dreamier than ever. Take a walk through the lit up streets and into the snowy park, and experience the magic of Christmas in New York like never before.

The stunning Casa Cipriani is perfect for a cosy stay during New York's rather brutal Winter.

The northern lights are characterized by extremely colorful skies at night, which you tend to see on TV or in photographs, but if you visit the Lofoten Islands in Norway, you can enjoy them for real all winter long.

Of course, the French capital has to be on this list and the Eiffel Tower lights up with colors throughout the year, but in winter, it is particularly beautiful covered in white thanks to the snow, giving it an amazing look.

Mount Fuji is almost symmetrically perfect, but you should know that the highest mountain in Japan owes this remarkable shape to its last eruption in 1707. Besides, Lake Kawaguchiko makes it even more breathtaking, so the inhabitants are lucky to see this every day.

The Kirkjufell mountain is one of the most famous natural sites in Iceland. In winter, the water in the falls freeze, putting everything on "pause" and sunsets just sublimate the horizon.
