Up next was Tokyo’s large-scale digital art.The website explained: “When teamLab Borderless opened in Tokyo’s Odaiba district in 2018, it caused a furore.“The world has never seen digital art of this scale before: immersive, interactive and just radical.”The Japanese immersive experience promises boundary-pushing art, which has earned teamLab Borderless a Guinness World Record in 2021 for being the most visited museum in the world dedicated to a single group or artist.
We carry on the list with Italy’s revamped vintage trains.Air travel? It’s over, Time Out said. “We’re charging full-steam ahead into the era of sustainable and affordable train travel, and Italy’s revamped vintage tourist trains are a particularly exciting addition to Europe’s roster of new services,” the website stated.The trains will shuttle passengers from major cities to rural regions and beyond in some truly beautiful vintage carriages.Moreover, there will be three types of new services (luxury, express, and the more budget-friendly ‘omnibus-regionali’). The first service – a sleeper train from Rome to the Dolomites – launches this month, with the rest to follow in 2024.
In third position, the list mentioned Europe’s highest disco in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland.“You might have trekked to the other side of a city for a party before, but have you ever trekked up to the top of a mountain?” Time Out asked.It further stated: “while it might sound like a lot of effort for a boogie, Detour Discotheque is well worth the, well, detour.“This is an ambitious and unique event that’s seen success in the remote regions of Iceland and Scotland: in 2024, it’s coming to the Swiss Alps.“Performances from veteran DJs in a revolving restaurant – yes, you read that right – are scheduled, as are stays in the valley’s gorgeous Alpine villages. Sure, it’ll take you four cable cars to get there, but just look at those views.”
In fifth position, we find a cruise in the Colombian river that inspired the book Love in the Time of Cholera.Time Out said: “There are over a dozen major cruise lines that visit the Caribbean coast of Colombia, but none travel inland along the Magdalena River.“That will change when AmaWaterways sets sail on Colombia’s version of the Mississippi River in November 2024.”The cruise includes a seven-night riverboat voyage that allows guests to experience the region’s wildlife and towns, which became famous after Gabriel García Márquez’s novel Love in the Time of Cholera.
Ranking seventh, a re-opened London icon: Simpson’s in the Strand.Simpson’s in the Strand first opened in 1828 as a chess club, but closed since the pandemic.It has now reopened, thanks to restauranteur Jeremy King. “This classic London restaurant – one of the first in the UK to win a Michelin star – is set to finally re-open in 2024,” Time Out reported.A favorite of Arthur Conan Doyle, Charles Dickens, and lots of other moustachioed men in suits, the revamped Simpson’s in the Strand will be brought “fully into the twenty-first century”, Jeremy said.
In eighth place, we have a new food festival on a remote Icelandic island called Vestmannaeyjar.Time Out said that “everyone’s all Reykjavik, Reykjavik, Reykjavik about food in Iceland”, but hidden away on an archipelago on the south coast called Vestmannaeyjar (also the Westman Islands), “a new foodie hotspot is brewing.“The website explained that the Matey Seafood Festival “essentially invites top international chefs to take over its restaurants for a weekend, resulting in intricate and inventive fine dining using local Icelandic ingredients (i.e. lots of haddock and cod)”.
And last but not least; a brand-new music weekender in Dublin, Ireland.Borderline is a newly announced weekender showcasing “forward-facing” new artists across two nights in February, Time Out explained.These budding stars – among them Fat Dog, Spider and Lambrini Girls (honestly, those names have already won us over) – will be giving it their all on the stages of legendary music venue the Workman’s Club, the website said.
