The Monkey.Com website in the UK and Forbes magazine in the U.S. have decided that Colombia is the world’s third most beautiful country (after Indonesia and New Zealand) in a recent joint survey of 50 nations around the globe.
“While beauty is ultimately subjective, it’s clear that these countries have a lot to offer visitors, whether you prefer adventuring in the mountains or relaxing by the coast,” said Sal Haqqi, personal finance editor at money.co.uk, in announcing the survey.
The countries were ranked through the analysis of the number of natural wonders in every nation, from coral reefs and tropical rainforests to volcanoes, glaciers and more.
Colombia earned third place thanks to total score of 7.16 out of 10 on the natural beauty scale on the basis of diverse climate, culture, geography, flora, and fauna. The big South American nation also boasts a variety of landscapes, from the Andes mountains to the Amazon rainforest.
In addition, Colombia was cited as the best located country of the western hemisphere ranking above destinations such as Mexico, Ecuador and the United States.
