Best long term motivational routes

I want to add to my training plan some motivational routes as long term goals, following the advice in the Rock Climber’s Training Manual.

What are some amazing and motivational sport routes throughout the world in the 5.12 and 5.13 grades that would be good to include as long term goals?

Thanks everybody!

What part of the country? Are you more interested in history, or aesthetics, or movement quality, or all of the above(which is really rare:) ) or something else? Do you have a preferred style?

I'm really into the history side so many of these relate to that, but here's a few off the top of my head:

Watts Totts(12b) or Chain Reaction(12c), Smith Rocks - History, Aesthetics, Location

The Gift(12d), Red rocks - Classic, Great movement, location, etc.
Mentor(12c), VRG - quality, movement

Darkness at Noon(13a), Smith Rocks - Classic Long face climb at Smith
The Backbone(13a), Smith Rocks - Aesthetic, location
Goliath(13a), Enchanted Tower, NM - Aesthetic, quality, movement, (check on access though as I'm not how it stands at the moment)

Kanal Im Rucken(13d), Frankenjura, Germany - World's first 13d

Whoops, just noticed you were from Maraglef... not the US. These are very US centric.

As noted above you aren't in the US so it might not be as relevant but I always thought cradle of the deep at HCR looked amazing. I recently read RCTM and I think this is on my list for motivation although 13a is still a long long way off for me.
