Italy is known for its amazing food, iconic monuments, and incredible art. Italy is the fifth most visited country in the world and receives approximately 65 million tourists each year.

The top destinations in Italy are Rome, Venice, and Florence.

Trevi Fountain Rome Italy

WHY VISIT ROME

Rome Italy is full of iconic sights but the best way to experience Rome’s La Dolce Vita is to wander and get lost. Rome has 280 fountains, beautiful piazzas, famous stairs, winding cobblestone paths, catacombs, trattorias with red-checkered tablecloths, creamy pasta dishes, and Italian coffee.

WHY VISIT VENICE

Venice is a floating city made up of 120 islands and 450 bridges. The city is a maze of small streets, bridges, and canals all full of timeworn buildings, strings of laundry, and window boxes of flowers. You will have the best experience wandering Venice Italy without a time schedule or agenda, stopping in as many cafes and little bookstores as possible.

WHY VISIT FLORENCE

Florence has it all. Cobblestone streets, shutters adorn worn buildings, insanely beautiful doors, frescoes galore, the Duomo, beautiful gardens, old city walls, Chianti wine, leather markets, famous public art, and, of course, David.

THE NETHERLANDS TRAVEL GUIDE

When most people think of traveling in the Netherlands, they think of Amsterdam, with its semi-sleazy Red Light District, charming canals, historic windmills, and laid-back “coffee” shops where you can smoke pot.

But there is much more to the country than its largest city.

The Netherlands is a country filled with centuries-old brick homes, an interconnected system of canals (you can travel most of the country via the water), expansive farmland, and even some really nice beaches. It’s one of my favorite countries in the world. The people are wonderful, there are tons of small towns to explore, and its small size means it’s easy to visit in a short time.

Most travelers come here just to see Amsterdam for a few days before moving on.

Don’t do that.

Spend time exploring outside of Amsterdam and you can discover the country that keeps me coming back every year.

Whether you are backpacking or just traveling on a budget, this Netherlands travel guide can help you plan your trip, save money, and ensure you make the most out of your time here.

Top 5 Things to See and Do in the Netherlands

1. Visit Amsterdam

The capital and center of tourism in the country, Amsterdam is as beautiful as it is crazy. There are famous canals, beautiful and historic houses, tons of parks, a foodie scene, art, coffee shops, and, of course, the infamous Red Light District and its wild nightlife. It’s perfect for exploring by bike and it’s every museum lover’s dream, with exhibitions on everything[……]

13 Awesome Things To Do In Athens, Greece For First-Timers

Athens, Greece’s most populous city, the birthplace of democracy, and home to some of the best well-preserved, and most beautiful ruins in the world have been getting quite a bad rap lately by some travelers who claimed the city is ugly and doesn’t have much to offer for travelers.

After I visited the city myself for about a week last summer, I have to disagree with that statement. Personally, I have no idea what they were talking about as I had a hell of a time in Athens.

The city is awesome! It is a well-lived-in city, which is as authentic as it comes. The city has charming neighborhoods, a ton of awesome viewpoints, and a slew of incredible things to do. I had a great time here and highly recommend you do not skip the city based on the negative reputation you have heard before and check out the city for yourself!

Within this guide, you will find all the information you need to plan a perfect trip to Athens.

1. Explore The Ruins Of The Parthenon

The Parthenon is probably one of the most recognizable landmarks in Greece, if not the world. People travel from all over the world to see this well-preserved Greek ruin that have stood the test of time for more than 2,000 years with their own eyes.

The temple was built in the 5th century BC as a dedication to the Greek goddess Athena Parthenos, who was regarded as the protector of Athens. It was designed by the renowned Greek architects Iktinos and Kallikrates, and its construction took almost 15 years to complete.
