Where is the best place you have ever been on vacation and why?

<h3>Where is the best place you have ever been on vacation and why?</h3>

I want to make an "around the world" trip and I want to visit "off the beaten path" places. Where are some places that you wouldn't normally see if you did the tourist thing, but are 100% worth seeing? Anywhere in the world is fine. What did you do there? Any festivals, or special experiences, or activities would be great. Thank you!
