Center for Sustainable Destinations, National Geographic Traveler has devoted
its sixth annual “Places Rated” Destination Stewardship survey to the world’s

again taken top honors, with a score of 85 points. Judges noted the gorgeous
scenery and well-preserved rural life that are vigorously protected. Others
making the top “Best Rated Places” category range from Japan’s ancient Kyoto

The United Kingdom is the country with the most winners in this year’s top
category: England’s Yorkshire Dales, Scotland’s Highlands, and Wales.
A total of 133 destinations were surveyed by a panel of 437 well-traveled
