Top Ten Destinations in Europe
1) Paris
For me personally I will always vote for Paris, mainly as it has so much to offer for a tourist. Popularly known as the city of love, it is beautiful in every season. Divided in five zones and has a transport train’s facility that will leave you in awe.The transportation is so well established that every tourist station has a tourist spot. For many Paris is all about the Eiffel tower, certainly this is one of the major spots of the city and it looks splendid in day and remarkable in night as well. The other important structures are Arc de Triumphe,The Cathedral of Notre Dame.At the very extreme zone is chateau de Versailles, this is like heaven on earth having a magnificent palace and surrounding that match it. Louvre museum is one of the best built museums in the world, they have Monalisas portrait that is a major star attraction here. For all the kids the ideal place would be Disney world, Disney in itself is a complete package and you can spend an entire day without knowing how the time flew.
2)Rome
My first impression for Rome was its magnanimous in every aspect. It has an area of 1,290 square kilometres and architecture that matches it in style. Be it at the crossroad or at a tourist spot, give a gaze around and you will find great artistic monuments that will leave you thinking. Even if you are not an art lover you will fall in love with this ancient city which has hundreds of historical sites to enjoy. The ideal transportation that worked for us was on the hop on hop off buses. They are really convenient and come handy when you have less time. Make sure you try out the Italian food; I mean who isn’t crazy about pizzas and pastas. Roman Coliseum, Palatine Hill, Pantheon and so on are a few historical places worth visiting. Vatican city is another most sought out destination in Rome. One can enjoy the marvelous and mind-blowing artworks of Michelangelo at St. Peter’s Basilica and Sistine Chapel.
3) Milan
Speaking of Milan the two major names that come to your mind would be fashion and finance. However many football fans will associate Milan for the sport. The city is home to both AC Milan and Inter, two of Italy’s top teams. It has historic background and new architectures ensemble everywhere. The canal side cafes and old fashioned gelaterie (ice-cream shops) will take you to an older era.
4)Luzern, Switzerland
For us Indians, this has been the only attraction if we were to visit Europe, there are so many travel agents like Thomas cook who have made it easier for us. Thanks to Bollywood and all the hype created by yashraj movies every Indians dream is to visit Luzern once in their lifetime. Needless to say that zurich is the trade capital of Switzerland, It doenot have much to offer in terms of scenic beauty unless you want to shop till you drop then you ought to be in Zurich. Luzern is the ideal stop for many travelers, mount Pilatus, mount titlis and mount jungfrauoch. The journey till the top of the peak is magnificent and when you are on the top it is the best feeling ever and everything else seems insignificant.
Munich is one of the cities which has museums that can give art a new name; very rich in architecture and culture. Munich is the hub for beer lovers, come Oktoberfest beer celebration and there are gallons of beer that is drunk during that season. Many travelers to Munich are absolutely stunned by the quality of the architecture. Historical buildings and museums are the backdrop of this beautiful city.
7) Florence
Florence, also known as Firenze is the main center for all national railway lines, making the intercommunication very easy. We had been to this city primarily for one reason the leaning tower of pisa. A roundtrip from Italy, Firenze and venice is the perfect outing for this coming vacation in summer. This city is located between the middle of the Italian peninsula and has a decent population. Ideal time to visit it would be in spring as the summers are hot and have breezy winters.
8)Saint Tropez
When you are choosing a holiday spot, you want it to be best and out of the world. This seaside resort town Saint Tropez, has all that one expects out of a vacation.

Terrace cafes give a lot to offer from coffees to the ice creams you can relish them all while strolling down the lane.
Venice popularly known as the city of canals is rooted as the prime location for any romantic honeymoon. It is the most romantic place ever, love is in the air in this place you will find cozy couples everywhere on the canal and in gondolas. It is a different setting altogether, we had stayed in a hotel which was near to the canal and it had the most amazing view ever. Transportation is entirely on boat as the entire city is covered with water. The ideal tiem to visit is spring or early fall. Home of pasta and pizza you will relish yourselves like never before. Make it a point to travel in the gondola it is a tourists fascination as the driver sings a love song whilst he maneuvers the boat. Another attraction here is the famous Piazza San Marcos square one of the biggest square and has the most amazing disguised masks ever. Also famous for the number of pigeons that accumulate every year.
