Since this is the advanced forum, you should explain the reasoning behind your choices. Making lists of one's favorites is what many of the threads in the 'Novices and Newcomers' section are dedicated to.

As for me, my favorite locations in Middle Earth ar the Old Forest and the Downs and the Mines of Moria, the former because of its strangeness and Tolkien's drear and mysterious description, and the latter because of its overwhelming darkness and the hints that Tolkien leaves in FotR about its glorious history. As for the landscapes mentioned in the Silmarillion, Tirion upon Tuna always gives me an impression of enchantment and beauty.
