12 Places You'd Never Believe Were In The UK. Just the ticket for popping the question: The romantic 'tunnel of love' railway line that's so beautiful it's beyond be-leaf. By Leon Watson Published: 00:58 GMT, 11 May 2012 | Updated: 07:04 GMT, 11 May 2012 Strolling hand-in-hand with someone special, these young lovers must be in one of the world's most romantic spots.

India may have the Taj Mahal, and Paris is the city of love, but the Ukraine has this incredible, ethereal Tunnel of Love. There is one thing though, it's also a train line. And when it's choo-choo time, the tunnel does get rather noisy. Anton Kozachuk, 18, and Nastya Guz, 16, walk through the Tunnel of Love in Klevan, Ukraine Rather unromantically, the tunnel is actually a three kilometre section of private railway that serves a fibreboard factory near the town of Klevan, in the east of the country.

However, in spring the beautiful avenue of trees is witness to a very different journey - into love. The magic happens when the trees that line the rails burst into life and create a leafy enclosed arch over the track. A train runs through the Tunnel Of Love's private railway line. Plitvice, a watery paradise in Croatia. In recent years, Croatia has changed from a relative unknown to one of the trendiest destinations in Europe. To a great extent this is due to the country's rocky littoral, which, washed by the Adriatic, is considered one of the most beautiful of the Mediterranean coastlines.

Then there is the rich history and cultural heritage of medieval towns such as Dubrovnik, Split and Sibenik. But the well-deserved popularity also depends on the protected natural areas, which make up some ten per cent of the country's area. Eight areas enjoy national park status – a very high number for a relatively small country.

Of these, Plitvice is the best known. It owes its fame to the 16 lakes of crystal clear water in all shades of green, grey and blue linked by nearly a hundred tumbling cascades, as well as to the dense forests of beech, fir and pines where bears and wolves roam, and which are home to a great variety of birds.
