While we wait for the time when we can once again travel the world freely, armchair travel will fill two purposes: to lift our spirits, while inspiring us to contemplate future travel adventures. Hopefully a virtual tour of these 10Best photo galleries will do both, and encourage us to dream and plan.

We’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite destinations, with links to photo galleries of each, and invite you to sit back and enjoy some armchair travel on our post at both USATODAY and its travel affiliate, USATODAY 10Best.
