Destinations Desk Calendar Overview

The Destinations desk calendar features spectacular photographic images of amazing faraway places all over the world. It's an invitation to discover and immerse yourself in the exotic surroundings displayed on each page.

For example, Uppuveli Beach, Trincomalee, Sri Lanka is featured in October. Colourful wooden boats rest on this long, palm-fringed beach of fine golden sand with crystal-clear waters, situated on the tranquil northeast coast of Sri Lanka. Trincomalee Bay is one of the world's greatest natural harbours, a historic city, home to many beautiful beaches and a lovely lagoon with wooden huts inhabited by local fishermen and their families. November's image depicts the Great Pyramid of Giza, Egypt. The oldest and largest of the three pyramids towering above the desert plateau is the Great Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops), 139m high and built between 2580-2560 BC. Egypt's pharaohs expected to become gods in the afterlife and built massive pyramid tombs, using millions of stone blocks with remarkable geometric precision, as burial chambers, filled with all the things they would need in the next world.
