And, not one but two Canadian spots are on there. First off is one area we’re not surprised to see make it- Jasper, Alberta. Described by time as Canada’s ‘cabin capital’ (look out, Muskoka!), the area got a shout for things like Maligne Canyon and Jasper National Park, naturally.

The second spot surprised us a little- it’s Winnipeg, Manitoba! That’s right, the prairie city was singled out thanks to the massive new Qaumaajuq museum at the Winnipeg Art Gallery. And, inside, there is now the largest collection of Inuit art in the world, at some 14,000 pieces strong.

Alright folks, now that you know what the world’s greatest places are according to TIME, are you changing your road trip plans? Whatever you do, stay safe and have fun out there!
