These are the world's most colourful destinations

Planning a trip abroad this year? Why not consider some of the world’s most beautiful, colourful destinations.

The Travel Sovereign Company have released an index of the greatest holiday hotspots to explore, highlighting the unique colourways that can be seen around the world.

From far-flung Botswana to closer-to-home Italy, the world’s most colourful countries are worth adding to your must-visit list. Other countries that also made the list for their standout colour include Thailand, Croatia, Turkey, India and Egypt.

'We believe that holidays should be unique to the individual, much in the same way that each holiday destination is unique to another,' explains Helen Adamson, Managing Director, Travel Sovereign Company to House Beautiful UK. 'Whether travellers are looking to explore sweeping amber landscapes on a safari holiday, or simply relax in the azure waters of the Mediterranean, each destination has a distinctive colour palette that you may not even notice until it’s all laid out in front of you.'
