7. Prague, Czechia
Prague, the capital of Czechia, is one of Europe’s most alluring and dynamic cities. Some parts of town have hardly changed since medieval times. Cobbled cul-de-sacs twist and turn, framed by townhouses, baroque buildings, and graceful bridges. Prague has a 1000-year-old fortress covering around 7 hectares (17 acres), the world’s largest ancient castle complex. The Old Town has many of the city’s quintessential attractions.
8. Vienna, Austria
Vienna is the destination for empire-era architecture at the monumentally graceful Hofburg palace. You can marvel at the treasury’s imperial crowns, the equine ballet of the Spanish Riding School, and apartments once occupied by Emperor Franz Joseph I and Empress Elisabeth.

9. Amsterdam, Netherlands
Amsterdam’s residents love the water. You can stroll beside the canals and check out the thousands of houseboats, or take a canal boat ride. From the water, you’ll notice architecture, such as the ornamentation bedecking the city’s bridges. You can relax at canalside cafe terraces. The city is ideal for exploring hip neighborhoods in search of things to eat and drink.
10. Budapest, Hungary
Budapest is perhaps the most beautiful city in Eastern Europe with the Buda Hills to the west and the start of the Great Plain to the east. Parks brim with attractions, the architecture is second to none, museums are filled with treasures, pleasure boats sail up and down the scenic Danube Bend, thermal baths billow steam, and the city’s nightlife throbs till dawn.

11. Barcelona, Spain
Barcelona is famous for its Modernista architecture, including the buildings of Antoni Gaudí. His masterpiece is the mighty cathedral La Sagrada Família, which remains a work in progress close to a century after its creator’s death. Barcelona heaves with tapas restaurants, art museums, and history-steeped neighborhoods, including beaches.
12. Lisbon, Portugal
Alfama, with its labyrinthine alleyways, hidden courtyards, and curving, shadow-filled lanes, is a magical place to lose all sense of direction and delve into Lisbon’s soul. On the journey, you’ll pass breadbox-sized grocers, tiled buildings, and views of steeply pitched rooftops leading down to the Tagus River. Pause at taverns filled with chatter, with the scent of chargrilled sardines and the rhythms of fado drifting in the breeze, and toast the city with a glass of Portugal’s famous port wine.
Motorcyclists drive down a road through the lush Scottish Highlands.
The Scottish Highlands call out to be explored on foot or on a thrilling road trip.

The Highland hospitality found in pubs and hotels will guarantee memories in this corner of Scotland.
14. Dublin, Ireland
Whether you’re wandering around the Georgian terraces of St Stephen’s Green or getting acquainted with the past at Kilmainham Gaol or Trinity College, you’re never far from a literary or historic sight in Dublin. There are few better places to down a pint than Dublin’s pubs. You can even make a pilgrimage to the original Guinness brewery. You’ll make a few Irish friends along the way.

The beauty of Florence and Tuscany is the stuff of legend.
15. Florence and Tuscany, Italy
The hills of Tuscany, bathed in golden light and dotted with vineyards, sum up Italy’s attractions. Picture-perfect hilltop towns vie with scenery and some of Italy’s best food and wine. Experiencing Tuscany for the first time is one of Europe’s pleasures. Seek out the vintages of Chianti and stroll the main square of historic Siena. Florence is home to “the greatest concentration of works of art in the world.”
16. Copenhagen, Denmark
Scandinavia has pared-back contemporary style – something that the Danish capital has in spades. Copenhagen has Michelin-starred restaurants, cafes and bars and boutiques around every corner. Add in top-class museums and galleries and a 1000-year-old harbor with architecture and you have the perfect Scandi city break.
The large palace of the Alhambra sits on a hill with mountains in the background.
Admire the incredible architecture of the Alhambra in historic Granada.
17. Andalucía, Spain
Andalucía – al-Andalus in Moorish times – is awash with architecture spanning eight centuries of Islamic rule in Spain. Granada, Córdoba, and Seville are the high points of a journey of riches. In Granada, the palace complex of the Alhambra comes close to perfection, and is perhaps one of the most impressive works of Islamic architecture anywhere in the world.
18. Ruins of Pompeii, Italy
Frozen in its death throes, the sprawling, time-warped ruins of Pompeii near Naples hurtle visitors 2000 years into the past. Wander through Roman streets and duck into lavishly frescoed villas and bathhouses, food stores and markets, theaters and even an ancient brothel. Then, ponder the town’s final hours when the skies grew dark with volcanic ash.

Locals have forged a city packed with art, cuisine, and nightlife. Learn about history stretching back to Viking times and use the city as a base for trips to Iceland’s natural wonders.
20. Provence, France
For many people, the landscapes of Provence are a French fantasy brought to life. Provence seems to sum up everything enviable about the French lifestyle: fantastic food, wines, markets, and long, balmy evenings. For decades, the villages of Provence have been hot spots for vacationers inspired by a vision of rustic living.

21. Swiss Alps, Switzerland
The stirring ramparts of the Swiss Alps grace chocolate bar wrappers and muesli packets, but nothing prepares you for the magic of seeing these mountains up close.

22. Istanbul, Türkiye
Serving stints as the capital of the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires, Istanbul is one of the world’s great cities, and an ancient crossroads of civilizations. The historical highlights cluster in the district of Sultanahmet – where you’ll find the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapı Palace and Grand Bazaar – with the vast Süleymaniye Mosque crowning a hilltop in Eminönü. Dive into the city’s characterful neighborhoods, such as cool Kadıköy, with its coffee shops and independent art galleries, or go antique shopping in Fener and Balat. You can even use Istanbul as a base for day trips to explore the wine region of Thrace or the coastal villages of the Black Sea.
23. Athens, Greece
Greece has ancient monuments at seemingly every turn, but it’s in Athens where this ancient empire’s monuments stand proud. High on a rocky outcrop overlooking the city, the Acropolis epitomizes the glory of ancient Greece, with its graceful Parthenon and 17,000-seat Theatre of Dionysos. Other impressive ruins include the Temple of Olympian Zeus and two agoras – one Greek, one Roman – mingling with first-rate museums. When you’ve had your fill of architectural magnificence, fill up on Athens’ culinary brilliance, sampling local delights such as lukumades (crisp dough balls) and souvlaki kebabs.

Admire the fairytale beauty of Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany.
24. Schloss Neuschwanstein, Germany
Rising from Alpine foothills in the heart of Bavaria in southeastern Germany, the 19th-century Schloss Neuschwanstein seems to spring from a child’s dream of a fairytale castle. Its pencil-thin turrets, vertiginous walls and glorious setting make it one of Europe’s structures – indeed, it was the prototype for the castle in Disney’s Cinderella. Rising near Füssen, the castle is at the southern end of the Romantic Road.
25. Greek Islands, Greece
Wherever you make landfall, the Greek Islands grab your attention and don’t let go. Whether you crave beaches, warm seas, history or nightlife, it’s easy to find your own island in the sun. It’s fair to say that islands such as Santorini and Mykonos have suffered under the weight of overtourism, but there are plenty of isles to explore that offer off-the-beaten-path experiences. Try exploring the lush Ionian Islands or the far-flung Dodecanese. Whichever sun-warmed island you choose, you’re in for an incredible experience.

From rugged hills to beautiful beaches, there’s nowhere like the Ring of Kerry.
26. Ring of Kerry, Ireland
There’s nowhere quite like Ireland – and even within Ireland, there’s nowhere quite like the Ring of Kerry. This 179km (111-mile) driving route around the Iveragh Peninsula captures elements of the Republic of Ireland on one circuit. Wild and craggy landscapes frame beaches, evocative ruined fortresses stand sentinel over wave-tossed Atlantic seas, and mountains watch over villages and islands that could be nowhere else on earth but Ireland.
27. Oslo, Norway
Oslo is doing everything it can to claim the prize as Europe’s capital of style, despite facing competition from Copenhagen and Nordic hubs. Oslo’s angular Opera House evokes an iceberg in a fjord, public art is a national pastime, and the city’s museums span the Viking age to Norway’s modern state of enlightenment. It’s a city to appreciate for its merits, not merely a stopover on the road to the fjords.
28. Stockholm, Sweden
Beautiful capital cities are no rarity in Europe, but Stockholm comes near the top of the list for sheer wow factor. Straddling 14 islands where the Baltic meets Lake Mälaren, this shiny Nordic star seems to have it all – edgy creativity, history, inner-city woodlands and waterways. From its storybook Old Town (Gamla Stan) to its progressive design, fashion and culinary scenes, the city offers a crash course in style and taste. Across the city, museums and galleries inform and provoke, serving up everything from Viking treasures and an warship, to ABBA props and contemporary art. The result is a hub, where the past, present and future constantly merge, converse and interplay.
29. Tallinn, Estonia
Tallinn is lively yet peaceful, photogenic and bursting with sights – including ancient churches, medieval streetscapes and merchants’ houses. Throw in food and vibrant culture and it’s no wonder Tallinn sometimes seems in danger of being loved to death, especially when the cruise ships dock. Tallinn safeguards the charms of its UNESCO-listed Old Town. Hence the blossoming of restaurants and hotels – and a tourist machine makes visiting a breeze.

Be sure to visit the Our Lady of the Rocks church in the Bay of Kotor in Montenegro.
30. Montenegro
Imagine a place with beaches as spectacular as Croatia’s, peaks as dramatic as Switzerland’s, canyons nearly as deep as Colorado’s, palazzi as elegant as Venice’s and towns as old as Greece’s. Now wrap it up in a Mediterranean climate and squish it into an area two-thirds the size of Wales, and you’ll start to get a picture of Montenegro. Montenegro, Crna Gora, or Black Mountain – the name conjures up a sense of romance and drama. There are both on offer as you explore this land, bathed in the scent of wild herbs, conifers and blossoms.
31. Bruges, Belgium
If you set out to design a fairy-tale medieval town, it would be hard to improve on central Bruges (Brugge in Dutch). Cobbled lanes and canals link squares lined with towers, historical churches and whitewashed almshouses. During the busy summer months, you’ll be sharing Bruges’s streets and beer houses with tourists. If you can stand the cold, come midweek in the depths of winter (except at Christmas time) to avoid the crowds. And do stay overnight to enjoy the views at night, when the city is lit up by floodlighting.
32. Lapland, Finland
Lapland casts a powerful spell – something fills this land of islands and forests with Arctic magic. The midnight sun, the Sámi peoples, the aurora borealis (northern lights) and roaming reindeer are components of Finland’s charm. Then there’s Santa Claus himself, who ‘officially’ resides here, close to the northern town of Rovaniemi, the gateway to the north. Consider the awesome latitudes – at Nuorgam, the northernmost point in Finland, you’ll have passed Iceland and nearly all of Canada and Alaska. Spanning 30% of Finland’s land area, Lapland is home to just 3% of its population, and its wilderness is ripe for exploring on foot, on skis or snowshoes, or by snowmobile or sled. The sense of space, pure air and big skies are the memorable features here.
33. The Albanian Riviera
The Albanian Riviera was a revelation to the backpackers who discovered the last stretch of the Mediterranean coast in Europe a decade or so ago. Travel pioneers flocked here in droves, setting up campsites and exploring beaches. Since then, development has kicked off in this region, but worry not – while some beaches can be well and truly mobbed in summer, with patience you can still find opportunities to kick back and enjoy the beaches the region was once so famous for.

34. Kraków, Poland
Kraków is the most Polish of cities, a place steeped in legends of dragons and kings. Where else will you find a castle, Europe’s largest medieval market square and Jagiellonian University – one of Europe’s centers of learning – sitting alongside museums and galleries displaying art and artifacts? Complementing all this is the world’s highest density of bars and clubs, cuisines spanning the globe, cellar bars playing live jazz and serving ice-cold vodka, beer gardens pouring local brews and architecture to rival other European capitals. Styles – Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, baroque and art nouveau – are represented here, all thanks to Kraków surviving WWII largely intact.

When Is The Best Season To Visit Europe?
Europe is a big place, spanning many terrain – the best time to visit will vary based on the countries you want to see, and your tolerance for heat, cold, and crowds.
Visiting Europe In Summer
July and August are undoubtedly the busiest months in Europe, particularly in the most visited countries such as France, Italy, Spain and Greece. Mediterranean regions have faced extreme heat and wildfires in the summer months, with popular attractions such as the Acropolis in Athens closing to tourists due to temperatures. In France, the south heaves with visitors in the summer, but locals head out on their own summer vacations and many businesses around the country close in August, even in Paris. Summer can be a time to visit some of Europe’s cooler, northern regions, such as Scandinavia, where long days and warm temperatures make this a time for outdoor pursuits – the midnight sun means you can enjoy bright evenings out that last well into the next morning. Across the continent, accommodation prices will be at their highest in summer, and booking well in advance is recommended.
Visiting Europe In Spring And Autumn
The spring (from April to May) and early autumn (September and October) are both times to visit Europe, though spring school holidays and Easter vacations can bring crowds, closures and disruptions in many places. Crowds and prices will be smaller than in mid-summer, though destinations such as Italy remain busy throughout the year. Luckily, there are destinations in Europe that are perfectly suited for an autumn escape or spring break.
Visiting Europe In Winter
During the winter months, ski resorts throughout the Alps and other European mountain ranges flood with alpine enthusiasts, and shoppers crowd Christmas markets in major cities, but the cold season can bring closures in spots that depend on summer tourism, including some Greek islands. For a dose of winter sun, many European travelers look to sun-warmed islands such as the Balearics, the Canaries and Malta.

Can I Visit Multiple Countries In Europe During My Trip?
With its many land borders, Europe was made for country-hopping – just ask the generations of backpackers and Interrailers who have meandered across it by road, rail and bicycle. How much of Europe you can see in one trip comes down to how much time you have and how packed you want your itinerary to be. Continental Europe is well-connected by rail, and a resurgence of night trains is making it easier to get around without the carbon footprint of flying. Travelers can also take the Eurostar train from continental Europe to Great Britain – much less hassle than traveling by plane! However, be aware of the immigration restrictions that apply to the Schengen Area, which includes most of the countries in continental Europe. According to the European Commission, if you need to apply for a Schengen Visa, you’ll be able to visit European nations within the Schengen Area, but only for a maximum of 90 days within any 180-day period. If you’re lucky enough to have a passport from a European Union country, you can travel freely across Europe with few restrictions.
