7 European Cities Where Adventures Await
What to do for those who have traveled extensively and desire something special? New cities, impressions, acquaintances, and sensations. Partying in capitals is cool, but it quickly gets boring. That's why we've compiled a list of cities you probably haven't visited yet. We'll try to surprise you with this selection!
Colmar (France)
Everything near Strasbourg is automatically beautiful! The city of Colmar combines French and German architecture, so you can feast your eyes on its beauty.
The first beauty that catches the eye, of course, are the houses! Colorful, vibrant, standing close together, in some places the city even resembles Venice. And Colmar is almost in the middle of the famous Alsace Wine Route, so, as you can imagine, the wines here are excellent. And not far from the city is the commune of Eguisheim, which is even cozier and more beautiful!
The city itself is one big attraction, as architecture from such ancient centuries has been preserved here that it's hard to believe. So all you need to do here is stroll leisurely and admire the streets with a blissful smile.
Marsaxlokk (Malta)
This is a case where an ordinary fishing village grew into a small town. It always smells of fish here, because the town lives by it. If you love seafood, be sure to visit the Sunday market; the variety will make your eyes wander!
Unlike Colmar, Marsaxlokk looks monochromatic, but there's a charm to that too. The fishing boats, of which there are several hundred here, add a special flavor. Beautiful, modern, vintage — each adds its own touch to this small town.
You can come here for a day trip with an excursion, or independently by bus from Valletta. Then no one will disturb you while you feast on octopus and shrimp.
Albarracín (Spain)
Once in this city, it feels as if you've stepped through a time machine. Utterly medieval, and the walls seem like they could crumble at any moment. But no, they stand firm, able to withstand any photoshoot. Pay attention to the houses when you arrive in Albarracín. Almost all of them are irregularly shaped and dark pink. The terrain is hilly, and there are fortress walls around the city.
Albarracín is usually part of an excursion with the city of Teruel. If you have the opportunity, we recommend entrusting your interest to a guide and getting to know both towns in one trip.
Bibury (England)
It turns out that not only red houses with white shutters look attractive against green lawns, but also dark stone dwellings. To admire them, head from London towards Oxford; the beautiful village of Bibury is not far from there. From a distance, it looks gothic and somewhat gloomy, and in cloudy weather, probably even frightening. But there's something to it, something different for everyone.
Almost all the houses here have stood since the 17th century; they were built of limestone, and not much thought was given to design, so they all look similar. But words cannot convey the true atmosphere, you'll have to go!

Pučišća (Croatia)
We mostly fly to Zagreb, Tivat, and Podgorica, sometimes Split. But Croatia has many other cities, no less beautiful. For example, Pučišća on the island of Brač. This resort town is famous for its quarries, whose stones were used to build the White House in Washington. Although it's a resort where you should relax as much as possible, we recommend renting a car and driving around the entire island.
And getting to Brač is easy: take a ferry in Split, and you'll be there in an hour.
Manarola (Italy)
The coast of Italy speaks for itself; you can drive back and forth endlessly and be amazed by its beauty anew each time. We recommend staying in Manarola. The nearest large city to it is La Spezia (you should stop there too, at least for a day). The town is also located within the Cinque Terre National Park and on the path of the Azure Trail.

Göreme (Turkey)
It's unlike any of the cities listed above. And that's because it was carved out of a large rock by the Romans. This city is the tourist center of Cappadocia, so if you plan to fly in a hot air balloon, you definitely won't miss it.
Most notably, there are churches and temples here, and quite a few national parks. But the magic begins when darkness falls and the city lights up.
