Vacation in Europe: 8 city trip goals that are not (yet) overcrowded

No matter whether north, south, east or west - there are destinations for Europein which you can have a really good time, but still relaxed time. We introduce you to our seven favorite goals!

1. City trip in Europe: Bergen, Norway

Bock on city and nature? This can be optimally connected here. Because the 287,000 inhabitants: Inner town is not only idyllically lies by the sea, but is also lined with seven peaks. The view from Mount Ulriken, which you also come with the gondola, is particularly instagrammable.

Tipp: The sunset from the panorama restaurant at oneenjoy. Must-See in Bergen is the oldest district, the Hansse district of Bryggen. With a little luck, you are almost alone when strolling through the cute alleys. It is best to end the day at a concert in the old sardine factory by the sea.

Hotelipp:The hip "Bergen Børs Hotel”(From 171 euros per night) is located on the first floor of the old stock exchange from 1862 and is super central.

2nd vacation without stress: Graz, Austria

Graz in Austria is leisurely and cozy. In the capital of the state of Styria, things are anything but stressful. Hustlayal student life with bars, cafés like"Grandma's teapot"And the concert location on the Schlossberg Kasematten? All of this is within walking distance in the medieval city with its over 280,000 inhabitants: inside in the south of Austria.

You can walk across the Mur river with its futuristic Murinsel, hike in the Graz Bergland, get to the bottom of the Museum of perception optical illusions and after a trip to the Schlossberg over the city with the underground slide “The Slide” again slide directly into the center. Nice!

Tipp:The slide “The Slide”. At 25 to 30 km/h you can slide down from the Schlossberg over Graz 170 meters long. Be a child again? Yes, please.

Hotel: Im Penthouse des “Hotel Daniel”(From 329 per night) you live in a cube on the roof with home cinema and direct access to the rootop - and look at the city, of course.

3. Stress -free city trip: Pula, Croatia

That you are on theHvar, Rab and Co. can celebrate well, most know. But the lively club scene of the coastal city of Pula is still an insider tip. Our favorite: the “Zeppelin Beach & Lounge Bar”, in which DJs regularly hang up, above the dreamlike Bay of Saccorgiana.

Tipp: If you have celebrated enough, there is also less contemporary culture to compensate: a Roman amphitheater outside the old town walls, other historical buildings (Kastell, Augustustempel, former forum and Sergierbogen)-or you can do a round through the Art Nouveau market hall.

Hotel: The apartment“Vincent House”(from 325 euros for 2 nights) in the city center has two bedrooms and even a small garden.

4. Vacation away from the metropolis: Haarlem, Netherlands

Wermay love hair. Because the canon city with its gable houses and pretty streets has almost everything that the capital has - hardly any tourist: inside. You can do this from Amsterdam in just ten minutesto reach. And it is also only a short detour to the sea with sandy beaches. It is best to explore the small town on foot or from the water with theHaarlem Canal Tours.

Tipp: A must-see is the Windmühle de Adriaan, from which you have a great view of the city. Great to shop: the “golden streets” with many concept stores. Buy liquorice as a souvenir!

Hotel: For Nordic standards this is“Boutiquehotel Staats”(from 159 euros per night) pretty pop. Another special feature: the in -house chickens!

5. City trip without stress: Valencia, Spain

"Come on, let's go to Barcelona!" This sentence often falls when youPlant. However, it is more chilled and authentic in Valencia - and there is also a great beach.

One of the most casual quarters is the Barrio de Ruzafa. There is a good market here, galleries, cafes, restaurants and bars. The Cabanyal district onIs nice original. The best way to celebrate is to"The ice factory". Not an insider tip, but definitely a highlight is the ciutat de les arts i les ciències. The futuristic cultural complex is the modern landmark of the city.

Hotel: The seven different“Barracart Apartments”(from 480 euros for 4 nights) in the Cabanyal district are stylish and are close to the beach.

6. City trip in Europe: Colmar, France

Would you like a weekend: the interior: n pensioner: to let it hang out in? Then Colmar is your place to be. Everywhere weet half-timbered houses, cobblestones, romantic channels that can be explored by boat, and wine. Very good wine. The city is located about an hour by car from Strasbourg on the Alsatian Weinstrasse.

Tipp: Really goodyou can on the terrace of Marché Couvert. Afterwards, a detour after “Klein-Venedig” is mandatory for boating. And in the evening? Of course there is a good Alsatian drop plus tarte flambée.

Hotelipp:In the colorful hotel“Paul & Pia”(from 63 euros per night) you can borrow bikes and explore the wine road by bike.

7. Vacation without stress in Europe: Riga, Latvia

One for everyone (s): the capital of Latvia is so versatile, every: R becomes happy. Architecture fans love the Art Nouveau buildings that are close in the old town.

Hotel: If you want to treat yourself to what, the best way to get in the fancy“A22”from (from 169 euros per night)-a Art Nouveau house with a really cool design concept.

8. Vacation away from the metropolis: Brno, the Czech Republic

Prague gets competition! Good, culturally, Brno doesn't have as much to offer-a historic city center with pretty houses and the Villa Tugendhat, a Bauhaus building that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. But that's why a visit to the southeast of Czech Republic is also much more relaxed. Brno is a hip, popular with student: inside, you can eat and drink great.

Tipp: Eating and drinking is particularly good here: in the quirky bar “Super Panda Circus” or in the “4pokoje”, the coolest restaurant in the city, which serves Czech classics with a modern twist.
