Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

Though it was scheduled to open this year, the new opening date of the United Arab Emirates' version of the Louvre is now slated for 2017.

Don't miss a trip to the futuristic building that looks like it's floating above the man-made lake that surrounds it. It will be home to a vast collection of art that includes Chinese Buddhist carvings, Italian oil paintings, and works from artists like Van Gogh, da Vinci, and Monet that have been lent from Paris' Louvre.
