A few days along the Baltic Sea all the way to Rügen to the chalk cliffs. The old town of Stralsund is also worth a visit.

In the middle of nowhere near Bad Schandau just before the border with the Czech Republic, bizarre rock formations protrude from the forest.

Anyone traveling in Prague will meet tourists on every street corner. Unless you leave the beaten path and just turn off.

If you drive towards Lhasa, you can see him towering over the city from afar. The palace dominates the cityscape of the Tibetan capital.

Once you have crossed the border between Nepal and China, the air becomes thinner and thinner and you move at high altitudes.

London is a lively city - there is no question about it. The capital of Great Britain is the third largest metropolis in Europe.
