As you begin to plan your epic summer getaway this year, travel site TripAdvisor has some suggestions. Below are the results of TripAdvisor's annual Travelers' Choice Awards.

Some spots have glorious beaches. Others have a wealth of history and culture. No matter if you want to stay local (U.S.) or travel around the world, there's bound to be at least one place on these lists that sparks your interest.
