Here are some of the best places you can visit in 2015. Find your favorite and put on
your travel list.
Washington, DC
Attraction: History in the making
From the Washington Monument and John F. Kennedy Center all the way to Capitol Hill,
the vigor (活力) of the US’ capital city is just as strong as in real life as it is in House of Cards.
The year 2015 marks the 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s famous assassination (*),
and a series of special events will be held to remember the occasion. Lincoln’s famous top hat,
the gun that fired the deadly shot, and other things from that fateful day will be on display.
Milan, Italy
Attraction: A cradle of fine dining and culture
If you are a gastronome (美食家), don’t miss Milan in 2015. Expo 2015 will be held
between May and October, and the focus is on food.
The 1.1-square-kilometer grounds will be laid out like a classical Roman city, with
beautiful streets, a canal and a huge lake. You can explore the food district, wander a square
full of street musicians and dance performers, or enjoy nighttime wine-tasting.
Salisbury, UK
Attraction: The Magna Carta’s 800th anniversary
For too long Salisbury has been considered a short stop on the way to Stonehenge. But
2015 is set to be the year visitors stay in this city as it marks the 800th anniversary of the Magna
Carta, which limited royal power and established the rights of common people. The highlight
for the celebrations will be Salisbury Cathedral, whose Chapter House holds the Magna Carta.
A brand new exhibition will open in the Chapter House, alongside many talks and a flower festival.
