| Europe Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see thessaloniki greece thessaloniki greece The old world is really quite old. Every other town in Europe is packed with monuments dating back several centuries. Little villages were once the capitals of a kingdom. The countries are small, but most of them were once the center of an empire that embraced the whole world. Travelling in Europe seems to be underestimated, especially by the younger generation and budget travelers. To say it clearly: Europe offers more than most other regions in the world. There is hardly anything that cannot be found in one of the megacities, like London, Paris, Rome or Southern Europe offers great beaches and "Dolce Vita": good food, good weather, beautiful people, charming towns and cities. It is hardly surprising that and France are always top of the bill when it comes to most popular holiday destinations. Since 1989 Central and Eastern Europe has become a very popular destination as well. Magnificent cities such as Prague ,Minsk, Budapest, Belgrade, Ljubljana, Moscow, Yerevan and St_Petersburg all attract many visitors.

It has romantic castles, beautiful nature, fast paced life in big cities such as Munich, Cologne and Frankfurt and great highways. South of Germany you find the Alps. Great for skiing, but Austria and Switzerland have a lot more to offer. Vienna, the capital of Austria, for example rates as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The North of Europe is not as cold as you might think. In summer cities like Stockholm, Copenhagen and Helsinki are among the most pleasant places to be. The people are easy going and very friendly and cultural life is rich. The United Kingdom, Ireland, The Isle of Man and the Channel Islands have that special island mentality that keeps you coming back. The Celtic spirit is still very much part of life in , The Isle of Man and in Cornwall whilst the spirit of the Druids is ever present in Wales. The Channel Islands reflect their proximity to and history with Normandy & Brittany although the culture and food tends to be very British. Travel in Europe, especially in the rich North West, is not particularly rough or demanding, with the exception of the Belarus, Balkan, Russia and the Caucasus. In Western-Europe things are well taken care of, it is easy to get from A to B, but all this comfort has a drawback: you pay for it. However, despite the high price of Europe there are still many affordable ways of having a good time without breaking the bank. Take a train from to Switzerland for less then 25 Euro with the whole family for example. But at the same time hardly any region in the world is so easy to hitch-hike like Central Europe: with the help of Germany's highways you can make with a bit of luck 1'000km per day!

Getting there from the other continents involves flying. Air Europe has lot's of airconnections with all the other continents, except for Antarctica. Indeed, for some connections from Asia to the America's it makes sense to pick up a flight to Europe and then head on. London, Paris, Amsterdam and the bigger German cities have competitive markets for cheap flights. Return Flights to North America (mostly New York) can be had for under 250 Euro. The rest of the world has some excellent connections too. Note that the cheapest flight tend to use cheapish Eastern European Airlines. Most of them are ok, but connections tend to be unpractical - although if you pay attention you can get a free hotel night thrown in. Surface Asia and Europe share the longest continent border of the planet, though most people will cross from/to Asia in Istanbul, where a bridge spans the gap between the continent. Taking the transiberian express is another possiblity. From Greece there are boats to Turkey, Cyprus, Israel, Syria and Libanon. To Africa the most used route is without doubt the crossing of the Street of Gibraltar, which is easily done, but there are also ships between France and Algeria and from Italy to Tunis, Lybia and Egypt. |
