European Vacations to Berlin
Start your European vacations with a visit to Berlin. Probably the most famous landmark in the city, the partition between East and West was torn down in 1989, signaling the beginning of a new era for Germany. You can still view what's left of the wall by walking along the southern border of Wedding. You can see a restored segment at the Gedenksttte Berliner Mauer, which is right next to a documentation center that charts the stories of people who attempted to cross the wall. Many visitors go to the former border crossing of the Sandkrugbrcke and lay flowers on a stone that commemorates the first person to be shot dead while fleeing the East. If you want to know more about the Wall and its history, head to the museum at the Haus am Checkpoint Charlie. Around 3 or 4 PM, wind down in the picturesque Prenzlauer Berg district of Mitte during afternoon kaffee und kuchen, a popular Berlin tradition for coffee and cake.
Look Back to Ancient Greece on European Vacations
During your European vacations, look back at the past with a tour to ancient Greece. In the center of Athens, on your way to the Acropolis, watch out for the Hadrians Arch, a structure spanning an ancient road leading to the complex of structures on the citys east side. This complex included the Temple of Olympian Zeus, said to have been built to celebrate the arrival of the Roman Emperor Hadrian, to honor him for his many significant contributions to the city. From Athens, you can drive through the fertile plains of Boeotia and arrive at Delphi. The center of the ancient world, it is located along the slopes of the imposing Mount Parnassus. From this spot you will be able to see the ruins of the Temple of Apollo and the Sanctuary of Apollo Pythios. Take a peek into the Treasury of the Athenians and imagine the bountiful wealth of that time. Go to the museum it features ancient Greek masterpieces, including the famous bronze Charioteer.
Royal Honeymoon European Vacations in Monaco
Continue your wedding to the fairy-tale setting of Monaco, a popular honeymoon destination and travel spot for European vacations. The Principality of Monaco is less than two square miles, but is definitely not short on elegant offerings -- the royal House of Grimaldi, the Paris Opera House, and the Monaco Grand Casino which is lavishly decorated with baroque-style rococo turrets, verdigris cupolas, and golden chandeliers. The city-state overlooks the Mediterranean Sea, and is an ideal harbor for the worlds longest, most expensive yachts. Marvel at the architectural prowess of Old Town, which dates back to the medieval period. Navigate through the vaulted passageways and narrow streets branching off the main avenues. The Rock of Monaco houses the Princes Palace, where his Serene Highness Prince Rainier III romanced Grace Kelly. Stop and smell the flowers -- all 7,000 of them -- at the Jardin Exotique, where the exquisite Princess Grace Rose Garden is well kept.
European Vacations to Charming Budapest
Budapest is fast becoming a popular stopover for European vacations. Budapest has evolved into a tourist-friendly city since 1989 despite its communist roots. Go outside your hotel, identify The Citadel, high on the Buda side of the river opposite, of course, the Pest side and make it your reference point during your wanderings. Up there, you will get romantic views of the city. You can also visit the cannon-ball-pocked fort from the 19th century and the Liberation Monument on Gellrt Hill, an inspirational structure in memory of the Soviet liberation of Hungary from Nazi forces during the Second World War. Head to the Castle District of Buda and visit the Hungarian National Gallery; admire the Mathias Church where royals used to hold their weddings; and explore the fairy-tale setting of Fisherman's Bastion where many couples exchange "I Dos" and take remarkable wedding photos from the Lookout Terrace. Wind down with a sunset Danube cruise after all that excitement.
