7 of the Best Places To Travel if You’re a Libra

Dripping with history, charm, and a bit of hedonism, the tiny island nation of Cyprus might just be your astrological spirit destination. By day explore Paphos Archaeological Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site of ancient ruins, then get your groove on in the glittery Ayia Napa clubs by night. Best of all, your goddess, Aphrodite, features largely in local lore, with her own rock and the Adonis Baths, whose tragic myth will touch your romantic heart. Enjoy a Cyprus cruise and treat yourself to a little luxury with a mega yacht tour to the gorgeous Blue Lagoon.

On a regular day, Kyoto is aesthetic and gustatory bliss, but during sakura season when the cherry blossoms are in bloom, it’s next-level. This gem of a city is likely already on your travel bucket list, Libra. If not, add it now! You will be immersed in beauty of all kinds, from wondrous temples and shrines to well-preserved architecturally and culturally significant landmarks like the Katsura Imperial Villa (Katsura Rikyu). Don’t miss the tranquil Arashiyama Bamboo Grove: its perfect symmetry will fill your heart with pleasure.

With its history of diplomacy, peaceful landscapes, and rich delights like fondue and chocolate, Switzerland beckons Libra. Although you may appreciate a visit to the United Nations (Palais des Nations) in Geneva, you’d happily make lovely Lucerne your basecamp for exploring Alpine treasures like Interlaken, where you can get to Jungfraujoch, aka “The Top of Europe,” or hit the famed walking trails of the Swiss Alps. Of course, sensual Libra also can’t go wrong with a wine tour of the Valais region overlooked by the Matterhorn.

Another small country known for its harmonious history, Costa Rica is lush and laid-back in a way Libras love to be when on vacation. Not known for being a thrill-seeking sign, perfect outings for you might be the memorable hanging bridges of Mistico Arenal and a visit to one of the cloud-forest reserves like Santa Elena. Of course, as a balance-prone Libra you should temper your explorations with relaxing days on a stunning beach in or around Jaco.

Just the name of this Tanzanian island evokes a sense of enchantment. With its blend of relaxation, culture, and pleasure, the World Heritage–listed capital is an ideal destination for the sign that craves beauty and sensuality. Due to its spice farms, Zanzibar has been a cultural melting pot throughout history, and its many influences are apparent in the architecture and market streets of Stone Town. Be sure to snorkel among dolphins off Mnemba Island or plan a day trip to pristine Nakupenda Beach.

Barcelona is many things, but the Catalonian seaside city is an art city at heart. Between the Sagrada Familia, Parque Güell and the various Gaudi casas, Barcelona is a feast for Libra’s art-loving eyes. Explore the many charming neighborhoods like the Gothic Quarter and El Born, move to the beat of flamenco music, and savor a walking tour of the best tapas bars.

Libras have a special place in their hearts for glitz and glamor. Nowhere offers that quite like Los Angeles. When done right, a visit to this urban sprawl reveals its sensual side: incredible views, food revelations, iconic beaches, and fascinating history. Nostalgia permeates LA’s well-preserved haunts like Chateau Marmont, Frank & Musso’s, and the Chinese Theatre. A classic Warner Bros. Studio Tour or a private tour of The Getty Museum will get Libra’s creative juices flowing.
