Flaming Cliffs

If you don't mind a bit of sand in your shoes, come to Mongolia's Flaming Cliffs - the spot where humans first discovered dinosaur eggs.

Fancy finding dinosaur eggs? Got a soft spot for dramatic landscapes? If you don't mind a bit of sand in your shoes, come to Mongolia's Flaming Cliffs - the spot where humans first discovered dinosaur eggs, and where you might just mistake yourself for being on Mars. These stunning red sandstone cliffs in the Gobi Desert glow like they're on fire at golden hour and are practically dripping with prehistoric treasures.

This is where legendary explorer Roy Chapman Andrews uncovered eight different types of dinosaurs in the 1920s, including everyone's favourite murder-turkey, the Velociraptor. Look closely at the ground and you might spot ancient metal pieces from Beijing-bound camel caravans, or the three-lined tracks they left behind. Just don't try smuggling any fossils home - that's a one-way ticket to Mongolian jail.
