It stands at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, straddling continents like that semi-mythical Colossus of Rhodes. After a century spent in relative obscurity, it seems like Istanbul is once again returning to its rightful place as one of the world\u2019s premier cities. Perfectly positioned to enjoy the benefits of both inland and maritime living, Istanbul offers balmy weather most of the year, but we especially enjoy the autumn \u2013 the red terracotta roof tiles that cover the old city pair perfectly with the autumnal foliage of its trees, creating an intoxicating visual effect. Add to that a steaming cup of salep (a local drink made of orchid tubers and a cool-weather favorite) and you have yourself a very cozy time indeed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Tickets to Istanbul      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Istanbul  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>With a history dating back to ancient times, Istanbul\u2019s cultural offerings can\u2019t be beat. Explore the Byzantine water cisterns under the city, where the Romans stored the vast quantities of water that allowed Constantinople (as Istanbul was formerly known) to resist siege after siege and remain unconquered for a thousand years. Then wander over to Sultanahmet square, built inside the ruins of the Hippodrome, where tens of thousands watched chariot races and other sports. It\u2019s the site of several extremely historic attractions, including the Column of Thutmose III carved way back in Egypt in the 15th century BCE, as well as the famous and beautiful Blue Mosque. A short distance away, visitors can find Istanbul\u2019s other primary mosque, the venerable Hagia Sophia mosque, converted from a Byzantine cathedral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Would you believe that Istanbul has great food as well? After you\u2019ve had your fill of the city\u2019s traditional grilled kofte (meatballs), head over to the old Atat\u00fcrk bridge across the Golden Horn, where hundreds of wizened fisherman pull fresh mackerel out of the waters and directly onto hot charcoal grills \u2013 and from there, if you so choose, into your waiting hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>How to get there:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can fly to Istanbul from any city in Europe.

Here in the shadow of that most famous of volcanoes, the venerable Vesuvius, you\u2019ll find the entire gamut of Italian stereotypes: Vespa-riding youths in leather jackets and track pants, tiny grandmas (that\u2019s <em>nonna <\/em>to you) dressed all in black, accordion-squeezing street musicians, and did we mention the world\u2019s first pizza?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What you\u2019ll also find is culture. The Naples archeological museum houses some of the most impressive remains found not only in Naples, but the wider region (including Pompeii, more on this below). While you\u2019re at it, if you\u2019re feeling frisky, you can also visit the Secret Museum, a collection-within-a-collection of erotic Roman art initially confiscated by the Catholic Church before being somewhat begrudgingly opened as a separate exhibition within the Archeological Museum. If you haven\u2019t had enough of the human form by then, visit the Cappella Sansevero, home to some of the most intricate and elaborate marble sculptures ever carved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Tickets to Naples      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Naples  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Further afield, the Campania region houses some of Italy\u2019s best attractions. A half hour from Naples, you\u2019ll find the unmissable ruins of Roman Pompeii, destroyed almost 2,000 years ago by volcanic eruption, an absolute must-see (and if you still want more, there\u2019s also Herculaneum, a lesser-known but still spectacular seaside settlement destroyed in the same explosion). A bit further afield and you\u2019re on the sun-drenched, lemon-scented Amalfi coast, a glittering necklace of coastal villages squeezed between the Campanian hills and the Tyrrhenian Sea.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>How to get there:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is really easy to get Naples by train, flight or bus from anywhere in Europe. The two main train operators in Italy are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/companies\/trains\/trenitalia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Trenitalia<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/companies\/trains\/italo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Italo<\/a>, that conveniently connect you with different Italian routes. If you are in Rome, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/trains\/rome\/naples\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">train from Rome to Naples<\/a>, can take you there in an 1hr and 8min. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/trains\/florence\/naples\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">train from Florence to Naples<\/a> takes around 3h and 45 min. You can also book a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/trains\/paris\/naples\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">train from Paris to Naples<\/a>, for a longer journey of around 12h. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flying is also an option, if you are located or traveling from other European cities. You can book a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/flights\/madrid\/naples\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">flight from Madrid to Naples<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/flights\/barcelona\/naples\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Barcelona to Naples<\/a> or any other destinations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively you can travel to Naples by bus.

Welcome to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/window-seat\/countries\/spain\/granada\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Granada<\/a>, which was the last bastion of Islam in western Europe, where the Christian monarchs of Spain completed their <em>reconquista<\/em> five centuries ago. To be sure, 500 years is a long time, but the wandering terraced avenues of the Albaicin neighborhood would beg to differ.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visit the Alhambra palace, last seat of the Nasrid dynasty, and admire the centuries-old embossed details adorning its walls. The best time to visit is the morning, before the heat becomes too intense. This sprawling palace complex boasts an exotic flower garden, royal housing, fountains, and much more. After a luxurious, late (Tip: Spanish mealtimes are generally a couple hours later than they are elsewhere) tapas lunch at one of the city\u2019s many streetside restaurants, catch a quick siesta. At sunset, head to the Mirador de San Nicol\u00e1s, where you can admire the day\u2019s last rays of sunlight glinting off of the Alhambra\u2019s golden walls. After dinner, cap the night off with an evening of flamenco in the Sacromonte neighborhood, a traditionally Roma area of town, where many of the dwellings are carved into the living rock of the hillside \u2013 cave houses!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>How to get there:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can easily reach Granada by train with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/companies\/trains\/renfe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Renfe<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/companies\/trains\/ave-mqk92\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ave<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/companies\/trains\/ouigo-1dgea\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ouigo<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/companies\/trains\/renfe-avlo-gza2h\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Avlo<\/a> providers from anywhere in Spain.

But look up at the edifice of the Strasbourg Cathedral, completed (after almost 400 years of on-and-off construction) in 1439, and see the name Notre Dame, and think: France. And so it will continue, from the winding alleys of the Petite France neighborhood to the city\u2019s world-famous Kronenbourg Brewery; from baguette to bratwurst to Strasbourg\u2019s quintessential side dish, choucroute, which is better known to the rest of the world as sauerkraut. Here in Strasbourg, you can\u2019t avoid the feeling of being if not between France and Germany, then of somehow simultaneously existing in both at once.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Tickets to Strasbourg      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Strasbourg  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>But that\u2019s the beauty of this place.

After spending the second half of the 20th century divided by the Cold War, the 21st century is once again seeing Berlin rise to regain its place as a premier world city. Today, it\u2019s known as a destination for art and music, museums, and historical landmarks. Fresh visitors to Germany\u2019s capital may be surprised: this isn\u2019t Oktoberfest in Munich: the buildings are almost all modern, the Alps are nowhere to be seen, and there\u2019s not a pretzel or shred of lederhosen in sight. In truth, Germany is a cosmopolitan, diverse country, and nowhere is this more obvious than in Berlin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Tickets to Berlin      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Berlin  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>After its 30-year presence in the city, the fall of the Berlin Wall left its two halves to become one again. Today, you\u2019ll usually barely notice as you cross between the erstwhile border, but you just need to look down: through much of the city, the former border is marked by a thin line of brick pavement stones crossing across streets and sidewalks. If that intrigues you, visit the Berlin Wall Memorial, where you can see a reconstructed section, complete with observation tower and the infamous death strip. A little-known fact: the Berlin Wall was not the first wall to be located in Berlin. That honor belongs to the long-gone medieval city walls. Their only remnants are a few scattered gates around the city \u2013 most notably the Brandenburg Gate, which along with the Bundestag parliament building (formerly known as the Reichstag), form two of the city\u2019s most iconic landmarks. You also can\u2019t miss the staggering Berlin TV Tower, a massive, 1,200-foot (370 meters) tall shining disco ball on a tower visible from almost anywhere in the city.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Berlin is also home to one of the world\u2019s premier art scenes, with almost 500 galleries located in different parts of the city, as well as dozens of museums and collections. Lately, it\u2019s garnered somewhat-belated worldwide recognition as one of the world\u2019s finest nightlife scenes, with a wide range of clubs and bars where properly motivated visitors can party the night away (and following day, if they so please).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>How to get there:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are in Europe, it couldn&#8217;t be easier to get to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/travel\/berlin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Berlin<\/a>.

This remote region boasts rugged cliffs towering above sandy beaches interspersed by rolling hills sporting more sheep than you can shake a shepherd&#8217;s crook at.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Tickets to Ireland      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Ireland  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Ireland\u2019s west coast is home to a number of natural wonders \u2013 the Cliffs of Moher, with their spectacular 700-foot (215 meters) vantage point over the crashing waves of the Atlantic, have surely earned their notoriety. If you really want to appreciate the region\u2019s otherworldly beauty, head to the western archipelago of the Blasket Islands, formerly home to a dwindling population of Irish speakers, where today visitors can camp on the rugged, now-uninhabited hills. There you can spy the incredible and appropriately named Cathedral Rocks towering over the surf with their distinctive arch. Looking for something more human? Western Ireland is also home to a number of ancient and modern treasures. Ireland\u2019s long centuries of monastic tradition has left the emerald hillsides dotted with stunning ruins of monasteries, while its equally long history of small kingdoms and chieftains left plenty of ruined castles to choose from.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the west of Ireland also conceals a special not-so-secret attraction \u2013 the Irish! Today, the west is the only place in Ireland where you\u2019re likely to encounter groups of people speaking the Irish language, as most Irish people speak English at home these days. These Irish-speaking regions are collectively known as the Gaeltacht, and together make up one of Ireland\u2019s most cherished cultural treasures. In the towns of the Gaeltacht, you\u2019ll find charming towns and small cities, each with their own unique take on the traditional Irish culture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How to get there:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can fly to Dublin and from there head to West Coast of Ireland by bus.

Dating back to the 13th century, Warsaw\u2019s historic center (along with much of the rest of the city) was destroyed in the Second World War, only to be lovingly reconstructed brick by painstaking brick, sometimes even using historic paintings as references where architectural plans were missing. Today in 2023, this reconstructed old town is a UNESCO World Heritage site and home to several beautiful and historic buildings and landmarks, like the Wilan\u00f3w Palace, dubbed by admirers to be the Polish version of Versailles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll also find a thriving cultural scene here. The river Vistula snakes through the city center, and in the summer its willow-draped banks are home to numerous beach bars slinging the ubiquitous Tyskie beer as well as mojitos and other drinks. The food scene is excellent as well. In addition to local favorites like the ubiquitous pierogi (a dumpling stuffed with cabbage, cheese, potatoes, pork, or other fillings) and kielbasa sausage, it\u2019s possible to find top-shelf Vietnamese food and sushi.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Tickets to Warsaw      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Warsaw  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Warsaw is conveniently located at the very center of Poland: 2.5 hours on the train will get you to Krakow, perhaps Poland\u2019s most historic city. Krakow has a long Jewish history (even today, one of the central neighborhoods is called the Jewish Quarter), and perhaps the best place in Poland to learn about the evils committed during the Holocaust. It\u2019s only a short drive to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum, a somber reminder of the horrors that humans are capable of. A trip there, while perhaps not the most fun way to spend half a day, is a deeply moving and important experience that you won\u2019t soon forget.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>How to get there:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to it&#8217;s convenient location, it&#8217;s really easy to reach Warsaw by train.

Straddling the border of North Macedonia and Albania, the city of Ohrid on the shores of its eponymous lake is an aquamarine gem of landlocked North Macedonia\u2019s nascent tourism industry. Perched on a bluff overlooking the lake\u2019s northern edge, the city of light (as it was known to the ancient Greeks) is surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, a rich and mystical history, and some of the best freshwater beaches in the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Tickets to North Macedonia      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to North Macedonia  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Ohrid\u2019s premier attraction and absolute must-see is the spectacular Church of St. John at Kaneo, which occupies pride of place atop a prominent cliff overlooking the lake at the eastern edge of the city. In fact, if you\u2019re the type who reads about travel destinations (and you\u2019re reading this, aren\u2019t you?) there\u2019s a good chance you\u2019ve seen pictures of this church. After climbing the steep ascent to the church, visitors have their choice of paths to continue to the hill\u2019s summit, which boasts more churches as well as a medieval fortress. The short hike takes you through a forest of pines and wild plum trees, all overlooking the pristine beauty of the lake. Further down the shore you can find the Bay of Bones, which is an ominously named reconstruction of a Bronze Age village on stilts out over the waves. Wandering a bit further down the lake takes you to the Monastery of St. Naum on the Albanian border, built over a spring rumored to grant fertility to any woman who drinks from its waters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lake\u2019s attractions don\u2019t stop at the historical: it\u2019s a huge destination for outdoor enthusiasts and boasts a range of activities including swimming, boating, fishing, hiking, and even paragliding. The shores of the lake are bristling with resorts, including an ultra-exclusive governmental resort dating back to North Macedonia\u2019s Yugoslav era. One of the best activities is simply to head down to one of the travel agents in town and rent a moped. Blessed with your own transportation, you\u2019re free to roll along the lakeshore at your own pace, stopping for a swim whatever tickles your fancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How to get there:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can book the most suitable mode of transportation from any European location to Skopje, North Macedonia and from there head to Lake Ohrid by bus.
