Getaways in Europe
London Weekend Getaways: This
cosmopolitan city has everything from Bengali
markets to Belgian restaurants to hand-penned
Beatles lyrics at the British Library. It may
help to have an interest in the arts or royalty,
but you don't have to be an avid theatergoer or
a history buff to enjoy yourself thoroughly...

Tourist Review
Getaways in Paris: Divided into
20 arrondissements that spiral outward from the
city center, Paris could be considered a collection
of charming villages, each with its own unique
attractions to explore. Paris
Tourist Review
As well as being one of the world's top tourist
destinations, Amsterdam is a
city that has managed to preserve its greatest
natural and manmade attractions as well as staying
at the forefront of modern Europe.
Just
decades ago, few tourists would have considered
visiting the northern Spanish city of Barcelona.
However, this once rather rundown industrial centre
that seemed to have little to offer has undergone
a seismic change that culminated in the hosting
of the Olympic Games in 1992, an event which completely
transformed Barcelona
Berlin
is the largest city in Germany. It is also the
country's capital and seat of Government. The
recently renovated German Parliament, designed
by British architect Norman Foster, testifies
to the construction boom currently taking place
in the German capital.
Situated
on the River Tiber, between the Apennine Mountains
and the Tyrrhenian Sea, the 'Eternal City' of
Rome (Roma) was once the administrative centre
of the mighty Roman Empire, governing a vast region
that stretched from Britain to Mesopotamia.
'The City of One Hundred Towers and Spires,' 'Golden
Prague' - names that evoke the many aspects of
this fascinating city. Its rich architectural
heritage largely results from centuries of escaping
the worst ravages of war, if anything, it has
been too successful. Maintenance, especially of
the painted stucco exteriors, is a constant process,
even in the last century, travellers complained
about scaffolding erected at many locations.
Madrid may not have the Roman origins that get
city historians hot and bothered, and it may be
a comparative parvenu, selected from rural obscurity
to become capital only in the second half of the
16th century, but it oozes a vitality and character
that rarely fails to move. In no other European
capital will you find the city centre so thronged
so late into the night, as though some unwritten
law forbade sleeping before dawn... Madrid Tourist

Weekend Getaways in Brussels. The European Parliament
has found its ideal home in Brussels
(Bruxelles in French, Brussel
in Flemish). The first visit to Brussels, uncoloured
by expectations, is all the more rewarding...Brussels

Seville,
Malaga
The capital of Andalucia is the city of Seville,
which boasts the Alcazar, a Moorish fortress,
and La Giralda, the turret-turned-belltower on
the grandiose Gothic cathedral. The city of Mijas
is an example of an Andalucian institution, the
"white villages," so named because of
the omnipresent brilliantly whitewashed houses....Andalucia
