Chapter One

The world's treasures may be disappearing, but that doesn't mean you should forgo comfort and style when you go see them. Our picks:

THE COMMUNE BY THE GREAT WALL, CHINA: Located an hour's drive from Beijing, these 11 contemporary villas and clubhouse were designed by cutting-edge Asian architects ($65 per night for a clubhouse room to $3,000 or more for a whole villa with butler service; commune .com.cn ).

THE ROYAL LIVINGSTONE, ZAMBIA: A member of the Leading Hotels of the World, it sits on the edge of the Zambezi river and consists of numerous colonial-style buildings--including a main lodge with a sequence of thatched roofs and a strong African influence in its decor and ambiance (from $650; suninternational.com/resorts/the falls ).

THE SAN CLEMENTE PALACE, VENICE: Beat the crowds by staying at this sumptuous former monastery on your own private island, just 10 minutes by gondola from St. Mark's Square. Dine at the world-class Ca' dei Frati Restaurant and watch the sun set over Venice every night from any of the palace terraces ($315-$730, thi.it ).

THE GRAND HOTEL VESUVIO, NAPLES: Enjoy sweeping views of the bay and the volcano over a glass of wine from your own private balcony ($485-$4,850, vesuvio.it ).
