Keep busy with 44 travel ideas
If the entire world is too much from which to choose, take a look at The 44 Places to Go in 2009 suggested by the New York Times. Some are obvious, such as Reykjavik, which was been on everyone's mind 2008. Others are easy, including Washington D.C. Our nation's capital has plenty of hotels (including the funky Hotel Helix, photo at right), great public transportation and access via two major airports. Of course, there are a few destinations that probably wouldn't occur to you otherwise. Here are some highlights:- Beirut, Lebanon: two hotels are expected to open this year (including a Four Seasons), and dining at Al-Ajami is top-notch
- Fjallnas, Sweden: this is home to a luxury resort up by the Arctic Circle; rates start at €325 a night, but deals are available
- Copenhagen, Denmark: the city's architecture is headed into the 21st century, particularly with the new zoo and theater
- Kazakhstan: no, I'm not joking; the new opera house is not to be missed, and a ski resort is in the works

Hey,
seems like a great list, with almost all the places listed being interesting. Hope this list would help many find places that are not often talked about.

If one already has an idea of where they would like to go, or they have been inspired by the above mentioned list, I would suggest to go to www.momondo.com where one can search for hotels in various destinations of the world simply by inserting the name of the target city. Prices in Copenhagen from the 21st of Jan start at 76€/night rate.
