Italy

Italy, with its capital Rome, is home to one of the most astonishing displays of ancient architecture. Many people from all around the world come to see the mighty Colosseum and other ancient structures so that they can marvel at their ingenuity and might.

Of course, Italian cuisine is something you need to see and taste for yourself, whether it is the famous Naples pizza or the famous types of pasta.

Russia

Although it is often portrayed as a hard and desolate place, you should know that Russia is home to many things that everyone would enjoy. The Kremlin and the Red Square are some of the most famous architectural achievements they have. Russia is home to many different ethnic groups so it is normal that it is rich in culture and has many different cuisines. This country is home to stunning landscapes that you can enjoy.

Turkey

The land where Turkey currently sits has been ruled by many different civilizations, and remnants of each can be seen nowadays, especially in its biggest city, Istanbul. Before the modern era, Istanbul had seen many makeovers, and different rulers contributed to making this city a great sight to behold when you visit Turkey. This city has so much to offer that it is almost impossible to see everything that you should, even if you stay for a week. The cuisine there is simply marvelous and it is much different from other European countries because of the use of some Oriental spices.

Switzerland

Many people from other continents have barely heard about this country, and when they do, they hear about how it is a haven for people who have a lot of money and who want to spend it. This country has much more to give than that. One of the main reasons why you should pay a visit to this country is because you can see the beauty of the Alpes. A huge mountain that is so beautiful that you will be in awe. Since this country has seen almost no conflict in the recent wars that plagued Europe, all its historical sites and heritage have mainly stayed intact. What is even better is that they were safeguarding many art pieces from being destroyed so nowadays we can look at and admire them.

Bosnia and Herzegovina

Even though it is a small country in the Balkans, Bosnia and Herzegovina is a must-see if you are coming to Europe. This country is really rich in culture and history and it can be seen in every town that you enter. Rarely will you see skyscrapers and other modern buildings in this country, which makes it really unique. The cuisine there is truly special and the aura that can be felt is something you wish you could always experience. There are many beautiful natural sites that you can enjoy with your family and spend a lovely time together.

Albania

Albania is a fairly unknown country to many people in the world but that doesn't mean that it has nothing to offer; on the contrary, this country has much more than many countries in the world. First of all, it has a beautiful coastline and what is even better is that there are not as many people as in other hot destinations, so it would be easier to spend your vacation there. Also, like almost all countries in Europe, it has a rich cuisine. The people are very hospitable. By going here, you will find many activities that can keep you busy while you are there. Even though it is not the most popular tourist spot in Europe, it has many things that you would simply love. What is also great is that it is much cheaper than some other countries, like Spain and Italy.

Europe is home to countries that have a long and amazing history. All that you can see and do there makes these countries some of the most popular tourist destinations in the world.
