The most pleasant locations in the world') is a 1998 book of travel writing by Christian Kracht and Eckhart Nickel.

[1] Bernhard Lill of Der Spiegel wrote he did not understand the purpose of the book, which he called a "pseudo-tour guide" that is "filled, but not with content".

He wrote that some of the anectdotes are funny, such as an obviously untrue story from a bar in Jerusalem where the authors witnessed Benjamin Netanyahu celebrating his election victory drunk and naked except for a Palestinian scarf.

Lill criticised Kracht's writing style, which he said is influenced by Thomas Mann's long sentences but lack their content.

[1] Ulla Biernat of Literaturkritik.de [de] wrote that the book, with its ironic subtitle, is made for "bored postmodern tourists".
