We’ve all got one; a list of the places we’d most like to see, visit and experience around the world. A personal wanderlust list. Now, the travel and adventure experts at Lonely Planet have published their own.

As you might imagine, it’s a hefty tome covering 500 destinations over 328 awe-inspiring pages. But where this list differs from the rest, is that each of the sights have been ranked according to votes from the Lonely Planet community.

Travellers, writers, photographers and wanderlusters were all given a shortlist of the most incredible sights ever featured by Lonely Planet – either in their magazines, books or on their website – and then asked to vote for their top 20.

Votes were counted and from the mystical Temples of Angkor and the Great Barrier Reef to the breath-taking Taj Mahal, the definitive list of the 500 best places to visit in the world has been compiled in a new book Ultimate Travelist.

Here are the top 10 wonders on the list to whet your appetite…
