“What a wonderful world,” sang Louis Armstrong once upon a time. And we at Bored Panda couldn't agree more. With 195 countries, there’s no shortage of places to explore. It’s truly amazing how one part of the world is totally different to another. That’s one of the wonders of traveling.

What you wear in Wales won’t necessarily be the same as your outfit in Western Sahara.
If you have a serious case of wanderlust but can’t hop on a plane just yet. Don’t stress. Bored Panda has compiled a list of the coolest charts that show incredible contrasts from places around the world. Keep scrolling to satisfy your worldly curiosities.
