If I had a huge amount of money I would travel and travel. I want to see the mountains of New Zealand because they looked beautiful in a magazine picture. I wish I could sail down the Amazon river in South America on a raft. I want to live on the beaches of Lakshadweep and dive down to see coral. I suppose I should go to the Konark temple in Orissa or the old city in Beijing in China and the Pyramids in Egypt too, but what I actually enjoy is seeing nature more than old buildings.
Explanation:
Rohit loves travelling, and lists out various places he would visit if he has the money. Firstly he would like to see the Mountains of New Zealand, as the cover picture of a magazine impacted him. New Zealand is a mountainous country. Around \(60\)% of the country is covered with mountains. The highest mountain peak in New Zealand is Mount Cook.

He then wants to travel in a raft in the Amazon River, in South America. It is disputed to be the longest river in the World, along with the Nile.
Amazon River
He then wants to live in the islands of Lakshadweep and dive down the ocean to watch the corals. Lakshadweep is a group of \(36\) islands and is India's union territory.
Coral Reefs
Rohit also likes antique places and relics, as he wants to visit the ancient temple of Konark, also known as the Sun temple, which is located in Orissa. He dreams of visiting the city of Beijing, the capital of China and the Egyptian pyramids, which is considered to be one of the wonders of the world. Rohit wants to be one with nature, and is least interested in man made things.
Sun temple, Konark.
