A list made by members of a travel site once visited by 23.4 million users in 190 countries, placed the Greek island of Rhodes in the first place among the 25 European destinations.

The top lacks attractions such as London, Vienna, Barcelona and Budapest. However, in the top of preferences are present Prague (place 21), St. Petersburg (place 22), Monte Carlo (place 16), York (site 19), Heidelberg (15), Galway (14) and Rothnenburg (place 17).

Austria has an only destination in this classification, placed by the votes of the visitors to the place 2 on top, Salzburg. Salzburg is the place where the famous composer and musician Mozart saw the daylight, Mozart-Wohnhaus is probably the most visited place related to the musician. The old town is famous for its picturesque alleys, the churches, and its famous castle.

The surrounding landscape is made even better in value, from the heights of the Fortress Hohensalzburg. Mirabell gardens and the Dome are much admired.

Ireland, with Dingle Peninsula, has found a place here on the 6th position. The area is full of old fortifications, even ancient, huge crosses, the most sites being in the western part. The landscapes are also recommended for their beauty. The main attraction in the town of Dingle is a lot of pubs where, besides beer, is very appreciated the music. Gallarus Oratory, a site with an old church over 1,000 years, is another place to see here, and you should not miss the image of Blasket Island.

Many of us have heard of Bruges in the light of the football team pennant of the city, FC Bruges. Bruges is a tourist target to be checked on the map of European tourist attractions. Once arrived in Bruges, you must visit the Holy Blood Basilica, where there is a vial of blood which is said to have belonged to Jesus Christ. Medieval architecture is best represented by the churches.

Another location on the list of “must” is the Onze Lieve Vroukwert, which has a statue of the Virgin and Baby made by Michelangelo. The Diamonds Museum, the channels of Bruges and the chocolate factories complete the picture of the main tourist points. The old town centre is included in the UNESCO heritage.

Many of the destinations chosen by the site which classified the locations are from Italy. Some of them, such as the Venetian lagoon or Vatican – the heart of Catholicism in the middle of Rome, Florence – city of lovers and arts, do not need presentation. To these are added as well the ruins of the fortress Pompeii (Naples) or the Amalfi coast, with the chain of beautiful resorts or with its islands Capri and Ischia.

On the list there are, though, less known destinations such as Siena city, close to Florence. What should be visited here? You can visit the dome in the downtown, Gothic building seen as one of the most beautiful cathedrals of Italy, Piazza del Campo, where you do not know if you are in Venice or in the Vatican. Here are organized horse races twice a year. The city is old and picturesque, the way up here being among olive orchards and plantations of vine.

The problem is that in Dubai, you do not have where to walk. Obligatorily start from the Dubai Creek, in order to observe the everyday life of the port, unchanged for decades, but still modernized. Ships larger or smaller still bring to the port goods from around the world.

If you are attentive, you can see porters who carry away goods coming from the over the seas. If you are not seasick, take a boat and row on this portion of salty water that divides the city into two: Deira and Bur Dubai, each with its quantum of oriental art museum, mosques, and malls. To explore these parts of the city in depth, you need a car or a taxi, because in Dubai, everyone is motorized, and sidewalks are quite rare.What you should not miss beside the monuments dedicated to shopping? It is the Bastakya District, to feel the atmosphere of the old Dubai, with narrow streets and small piscatorial houses.

There is here a kind of village museum, called “tourist village,” with art galleries, a cultural center, and restaurants. Sheikh Saeed ‘House is the former residence of the governing family, strategically placed near the water, for the sheik to see from the balcony the activity in port. It dates from the end of the 18th century and it represents an example of local architecture.They are spectacular especially at night, thanks to intelligently located lights, which confer them a sacred air. On the sunset, take one more ride by taxi on Sheik Zayed Road, the commercial center of Dubai and the area with the most skyscrapers. You will feel like in “Star Trek.”

You have to take pictures here. Do not miss the fishing fair either, but it has to be seen early in the morning. Not for shopping (now you will not start cooking with so many restaurants around), but for the atmosphere and feeling of normality that it offers you in the middle of future technology.On the Beach If you want beach, go to Jumeirah. Situated on the coast of the Arabic Gulf, this part of Dubai has beaches with fine sand and palm trees. Here is the modern symbol of the Dubai city: Burj al Arab, the only 7 stars hotel in the world, built in sail shape, where all the rooms are apartments. Prices are as giddy as the panorama that it offers from the top floor, but the luxury is incredible. If you have money, it deserves to spend at least one night here in order to feel like a sheik.

Still in Jumeirah, there are artificial Islands Palm Islands (in number of two), whose story you know from the numerous reports and documentations. The first one is ready and it has even received the first inhabitants. Towards the open sea, about to be finished, there is The World, a complex of private islands that form the world map. In addition, these have already been purchased by private persons or foreign companies.
