Our visit was on day 1 of Jordan pass, quite cumbersome. Rest of the experience was great, thanks to our guide giving in depth details of multiple era of transition this site has witnessed. There is a small museum having locally recovered treasure, and it’s one the best range of museums articles to experience right at the place of its recovery.

Panoramic Views and Ancient History at the Amman Citadel.. Perched on one of Amman's highest hills, the Citadel offers a captivating blend of history and breathtaking views that you won't want to miss. It's a must-visit when in the city, providing a magnificent panoramic outlook that includes the iconic Roman Theatre nestled in the valley below. The contrast between the ancient ruins on the hill and the bustling, modern city stretching out below is simply stunning. The site itself is beautifully maintained, with clear pathways and well-preserved structures that give you a true sense of walking through history. The most striking of these is the Temple of Hercules. While only parts of the colossal statue remain—most notably a giant stone hand—they give you a powerful insight into the scale and ambition of Roman architecture. Whether you're a history buff or just looking for an incredible vantage point, the Citadel is a rewarding experience. It provides deep insights into the history of Amman, and you can easily explore it with or without a guide. The informational signs are excellent, but a guide can also bring the stories to life with more detailed historical context.

The Amman Citadel is one of those places that takes your breath away not just because of the views, but because of the history that surrounds you. The ancient ruins are incredible to walk through, from the Temple of Hercules to the Umayyad Palace. It’s amazing to stand among structures that have been there for thousands of years and imagine all the civilizations that once called this place home. What I loved most was the mix of beauty and serenity. Stray cats wander the site, lounging in the sun or following visitors around like little guides. The view from the top is absolutely stunning you can see all of Amman spread out below, a blend of old and new. There’s also a small but fascinating museum at the Citadel that holds artifacts dating back to prehistoric times. If you love history, culture, or just a good sunset view, this place is a must-visit.

Amazing place with incredible history and beautiful views over Amman! 🏛️✨ The ruins, like the Temple of Hercules and Umayyad Palace, are fascinating and well-preserved. Peaceful, not too crowded, and a must-visit spot in the city! 💛

The Amman Citadel is such a beautiful and historic place to visit. The ancient ruins are truly impressive, and the views overlooking the city are breathtaking. The area is well maintained, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. A must-see spot when visiting Amman!

Amman Citadel is an Archiological site which has ruins from various civilizations. The site has a long history and many historical landmarks, dating back from bronze age (1200 BCE), to Roman period, Byzantine period and Umayyaad period (661-750 CE) are there. The site was mostly abandoned afterwards until the late 19th century. The site is mostly in ruins now, but very interesting to visit it. Every important part is explained in boards in English and Arabic. The Jordan Archaeological Museum was on the Citadel hill has many beautiful collection of artifacts from all periods of history. Citadel is the most important part of Amman, must visit place.

Nice to walk around and have a look. The cafe was nice to sit down afterwards. But the people inside trying to sell things or try to trick you by insisting on guiding you or tell you «fun facts» then following you and asking for money ruins the mood abit.

First of all the entrance is free, which is a great plus for a place like this. Very nice view and beautiful gardens. Unfortunately isn't possible to visit the gardens on your own, but you have to wait for the guided tour (available in Jewish, Arab, English and Russian). A big no from my point of view is that you must stick to the high pace of the guides, so you have a very little time to enjoy the place and take some pictures, furthermore, the guide does not wait the group for the explanations, so if you waste one minute to take a photo, you'll miss the explanations about the place, the religion, etc.

The best thing to do in Haifa! The gardens are immaculate and run completely by volunteers. My husband and I went on a guided tour which was free. I definitely recommend going on the tour as this is the only way to view the upper terraces. An absolutely beautiful, peaceful place.

Some of the most beautiful gardens in the world. The Bahai faith is extremely welcoming and kind as you walk through the gardens at their holy site. Highly recommend going.

The Gardens are beautiful. First the top level is free to all great views of the Haifa bay and the Baha’i gardens and shrine from the top. However if you really want to experience the gardens then get tickets in advance. If you are in Haifa it should be a must. The tour is about 60 minutes. It is 750 steps down. You will have a guided tour in English if you want and can stop at about 4 levels. You cannot walk back up the steps. You can take a bus 136 -7 stops (I think you need a Rav Kav. Like a metro card to board the bus) to return you back to the top, or walk through the German Colony Blvd and get a taxi. It a bit of a walk but there are cafes along the way back to the Carmel mountain

An ordeal to get there unless by taxi or you're very, very fit to walk there as it's all uphill. Taxis are extremely expensive unless you can get a group together to share the cost. The view from the top, however, is fantastic, providing panoramic views of the Haifa Bay area.

If you are in Israel, definitely make an effort to go here. The tour is interesting, the religion itself is interesting enough to learn about. Anyone from any background or creed can take something away from this group of people. In terms of the actual gardens themselves, they are some of the most immaculately kept and diverse plants that you will ever lay your eyes on. Everything is kept perfectly, down to the stones on the ground that you are walking on. As you descend, you will feel yourself appreciating the beauty more and more as you look back at each level that you pass. Take the time to explore the gardens and learn a little about the Bahai people You will not regret it.

During the month of November, the gardens are a burst of bright color in a city with very few gardens blooming. Exquisitely manicured, the gardens are beautiful with many plantings of bright reds and other amazing colors. There are nineteen terraces that extend up the northern slope of Mt. Carmel. The golden dome Shrine of the Bab, is the resting place of the Prophet Herald of the Bahai faith. Impressive.

This unique museum is an amalgamation of Cappadocia's topology and culture. Tickets are required to visit it. Tickets can be purchased online as well at the spot. The museum has churches, residences etc carved out in the hills. A guide is recommended to understand the history and significance of different structures and paintings. Do wear comfortable shoes and hats as outdoor walking and climbing stairs are required.

Walking into the Göreme Open-Air Museum felt like entering a sacred time capsule carved by faith itself. The air was dry and still, yet it carried echoes of centuries — of prayers whispered in the dark, of monks who once painted the walls with devotion and light. The first sight of those ancient cave churches, carved directly into the soft volcanic rock, took my breath away. From the outside, they looked almost humble, blending seamlessly with the landscape. But stepping inside… it was like crossing into another realm. The interiors exploded with color — vivid frescoes of deep reds, blues, and golds still shining after more than a thousand years. Scenes of Christ, angels, and saints seemed to glow in the dim light, each brushstroke a heartbeat from another era. In the Dark Church (Karanlık Kilise), the silence was profound. Only a faint scent of stone and dust filled the air. Looking up at the perfectly preserved paintings on the domed ceiling, I felt time dissolve. The artistry, the patience, the belief — everything about that moment was humbling. Outside, the valley stretched in golden tones under the Cappadocian sun, while swallows danced over the fairy chimneys. I sat for a while, just watching, trying to absorb the stillness that seemed to connect earth and eternity. Visiting Göreme wasn’t just about exploring history — it was about feeling the soul of a civilization that turned rock into faith, silence into prayer, and isolation into beauty.

Busy due to kids fall break, but manageable. Came as part of small tour group. Guide not allowed to talk inside the ancient churches, so he gave us an overview, then set us loose. We were told, and signage outside churches said no photo/video, but Turkish Tourism only says no flash photography? Anyway, I found photos on internet search to fill gaps (better quality than I could have made anyway). The Dark/Black church was impressive (€6 extra, but is covered by the 3 day pass, as well as entry to the site.

This was the most expensive single ticket we had… and we really wished we had bought the 3 day pass. Do this if you are seeing a lot of sites in 3 days. This site is not large and can easily be done in 1-1.5 hrs. Not much to see inside the cave dwellings. A plus of this site over others is that there are signs describing the rooms. There is not much for why this place had such a strong church relationship. It is not a place where lots of people lived. Good if you are only near goreme for ballooning.

Must see in Cappadoccia, and Turkey in general. This is an incredible monastry complex, with some part quite old. The Dark Church is impressive and completely worth the extra 6€. It is also walkable distance from Goreme itself. Aim to go there early before groups arrive. It feels a lot more mystical when you’re the only one there :)

The Göreme Open Air Museum is a beautiful and historically captivating site. The landscape is breathtaking, and the ancient cave churches offer a unique glimpse into early Christian history in the region. However, I was disappointed that photography isn’t allowed inside the churches — especially after paying an entrance fee. One particular church even required an additional €6, and photos were still not permitted, which felt unreasonable. I’ve visited many historical churches across Turkey that allow photos, so I found this rule a bit frustrating. Still, it’s a remarkable site and definitely worth visiting.

Worth visiting! The cave churches with old paintings and frescos are magnificent. I would recommend to come around 9 am when there are no too many tourist groups.

Amazing place especially the informative museum. Security is tight and can take a while to clear. Our guide told us dslr cameras 📷 are not allowed in. However, on entry we noticed a number of people with them. At exit, asked the Security about this, and he advised that as long the camera and lens don't appear large, it's permitted. Not advisable to take more than one lens, so take a zoom type. Also be prepared for large crowds especially at weekends. Changing of guard is worth watching 👀. It happens every hour at quarter past hour.

The day we were there was very busy due to national student holidays, that's why the main hall was very crowded and approaching the tomb took a long time. Was surprised to see how well the old cars were maintained for exhibition. Smoking is prohibited on the whole area, watching the soldiers marching in the yard was interesting too.

A must visit in Ankara. It's free to enter, there is just an extensive security check at the entrance. They have an exhibition of Atuturks personal belongings as well (clothes, swords, medals, pipes, tea sets etc.) and an area displaying scenes from the war of independence. So it's also like visiting a museum. They have a small cafe too.

🇹🇷 Ankara — Atatürk Memorial (Anıtkabir) Visited the majestic Atatürk Memorial in Ankara — the final resting place of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the visionary founder of modern Turkey. The monument’s grand architecture reflects both ancient Anatolian and modern influences, symbolizing unity and progress. Standing before his tomb, I could feel the deep respect and pride the Turkish people hold for their leader. The Changing of the Guards ceremony was particularly moving — precise, solemn, and dignified — a timeless tribute to the Father of the Nation. 🇹🇷 #AtaturkMemorial #anitkabir #Ankara #ChangingOfTheGuards

A huge and truly beautiful place, easy to reach. I was very impressed by the moment when the Turkish national anthem starts and everyone stops to show respect. If you happen to be in Ankara, I definitely recommend visiting Anıtkabir

Anıtkabir is a complex containing the mausoleum of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. Its construction was completed in 1953. The complex consists of various structures and monuments, including the Sarcophagus of Ismet Inonu and Atatürk & The War of Independence Museum. We went there during The National Teachers Day.

The heart of Turkiye political history, the resting place of Ataturk, the father of modern day secular Turkiye.

A luxurious palace with extensive grounds! Definitely worth a visit to immerse yourself in the culture of the Magnificent Century. Don't forget to wear something Turkish and appropriate for the atmosphere to take memorable photos. It is a very beautiful and historic place. There is an entrance fee, and you will have to wait in line (as everywhere), but it is worth it.

Served as the administrative center of the Ottoman Empire from 1465 to 1856. The name means 'Cannon Gate'. Plan to spend at least 2-3 hours there, I recommend buying the 'skip the line' tickets upfront. The guide took us into the harem (it has a dedicated entrance) - and then you are on your own to explore. Don't miss the sacred relics rooms: there could be a line but it totally worth waiting.

Visiting Topkapı Palace is like stepping straight into Ottoman history — a truly breathtaking experience that feels as if you’re walking through the streets of the empire itself. The palace complex is vast, atmospheric, and beautifully preserved, with many original sections still intact. Every courtyard, gate, and corridor carries a sense of authenticity that transports you centuries back in time. I highly recommend visiting the Harem section as well. It offers a deeper and more intimate look into palace life, showcasing the private quarters, architecture, and traditions that shaped daily life behind the walls. The Harem is beautifully maintained and provides a fascinating contrast to the more public areas of the palace. Despite its historical significance, the palace grounds are very modern in terms of visitor facilities. There are plenty of amenities, clear signage, and well-organized paths that make the visit smooth and enjoyable. We visited with a stroller, which is possible for most of the route. However, I strongly advise bringing a baby carrier as well, since certain narrower streets and historical walkways are not accessible by stroller. Fortunately, you can safely leave your stroller in designated areas when needed. Overall, Topkapı Palace is an unforgettable cultural and historical highlight of Istanbul. With its rich heritage, impressive architecture, and immersive atmosphere, it’s a must-visit for anyone wanting to truly understand the depth of Ottoman history.

A massive Palace, across three areas. Not well curated, although we didn't use the audio guides. The queues to get in was busy and disorganised (midweek in November), but didn't take too long. One of the areas had a massive queue, so we didn't bother. The veneration of religious relics not holding much interest for non Muslims (but each to their own beliefs). In fairness, the palace purposely wasn't built to be grand, to give the impression of modesty. It was built in the late medieval period and used until the Sultans moved to a more opulent, European style Palace at Beylerbeyi. It is a fascinating place to see, as this was the centre of power in the Ottoman world, controlling from the balkans, levant, Arabia and north Africa. I do note some people have called it a romantic place, but it nowhere does it address the nature of the people in palace. Many of women were slaves in the harem and kept for one purpose. The eunuchs, were castrated black and white boys. Unsavoury to say the least, but that is what it was like. They weren't the only empire to do this.

This museum is huge. It has 4 courtyards. Best part for me were the belongings of Rasoolullah (pbuh). You get to see a lot from that collection. Truly beautiful and what a feeling it was!!. Also this palace gives you snapshot of ottoman sultans life at Harem. Do take your tickets online to cut the looooong line. We went during off season in November and still it was super crowded. Once you have the QR code, assemble at the meeting point to find your guide and the rest of the group. They have timings for entry and you enter as a group. Our guide took us through the gate and explained about the courtyards and we did the tour ourselves. You gotta spend atleast 4 hours to see this in detail. Must visit when you are in Istanbul.

My visit to Topkapı Palace was nothing short of extraordinary. This isn’t just a museum. it’s a living testament to centuries of faith, power, artistry, and devotion. Every room pulls you deeper into history. The Ottoman weapons collection is mesmerizing. The craftsmanship on the swords, daggers, bows, and armor is beyond anything I’ve seen. Intricate gold work, precious stones, and beautifully forged steel. You’ll find legendary pieces, including swords and clothing belonging to the Prophet’s companions (the Sahaba) and even the iconic sword's of Khalid ibn al-Walid, which was a surreal and unforgettable sight. The most moving part of the palace, however, is the Sacred Relics Section. This is where time seems to stop. I stood just a few steps away from items attributed to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ — including his sandal, personal garments, and even an impression of his blessed footprint. These relics carry a deep emotional and spiritual presence. The collection also includes the staff of Prophet Moses (Musa) and items associated with Prophet Abraham (Ibrahim) including a stone pot dating back thousands of years.Drapes from the tombs of various prophets are also carefully preserved, adding to the profound feeling of connection with sacred history. Walking through this section is an experience words can hardly capture: humbling, powerful, and spiritually uplifting. Even beyond the relics, the palace itself is stunning: gorgeous İznik tiles, elegant courtyards, breathtaking Bosphorus views, and halls filled with treasures of the Ottoman sultans. If you visit Istanbul, Topkapı Palace is absolutely essential. Give yourself plenty of time, you’ll want to absorb every moment of this captivating journey through the past. A truly unforgettable experience.

This museum is very large. It is likely to take 2-3 hours or even more because it has a few sections to explore. The architecture and decor is amazing. In terms of accessibility, some areas of this palace may be difficult to reach (maybe like 5-10% of the museum, in reference to some rooms that have an upstairs). Also, there is a bit of a hill on the way to the entrance.

This was a beautiful space there is no doubt however it’s outshine by the fact it’s disgustingly overpriced. We bought tickets at the ticket box, maybe it’s better to book online? I almost can’t remember the beautifully preserved walls, the stunning architecture and the theatrical visual display at the museum. Very unfortunate that some of Istanbul best kept history is so incredibly inaccessible due to cost.

The mosque itself is gorgeous and quite impressive from the outside. It is costly to get in but you do get to see some historical Byzantine era artwork alongside Islamic calligraphy. There are even seraphim’s that decorate the mosque. However, it is unfortunate that only Turkish nationals are allowed to visit the lower part of the mosque where foreigners are relegated to the visitor areas. Nevertheless it is an iconic landmark and there are some interesting historical pieces that are worth looking at. If you go later like at 18:00 there are little to no lines.

This is an Amazing architecture with history. It was interesting how the religion identity of this Mosque evolved with different rulers. Some of the views look way better than the pictures. It is a must visit when you are in Istanbul.

The Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque is something that all tourists must visit when in Istanbul. It was very interesting to learn that this beautiful building is 1500 years old. I highly recommend buying tickets online to avoid the long queues.

One of the oldest historic landmarks in Istanbul. The grand mosque was recently opened as a mosque 2020 after being a museum for long time which was a mosque before that and was originally a church once built. The place contains a museum. A must-visit landmark in Istanbul.

There is nothing much I can say that someone hasn't already said. No one should visit Istanbul without seeing the Hagia Sophia. My photos are only a sample of what to expect. Be aware that it is closed from 12 to 14, but if you get your timing wrong, there are plenty of small cafes for you to enjoy a coffee or tea whilst you wait. I admit to being a little ashamed of one of my ancient forefathers having carved his name in the marble railing 🫤 We visited in November, queues were manageable, but I cannot imagine what this place might look like during the more busy times.

The place really beautiful, must visit! At least once in lifetime. Try to visit the cafe in front of the mosque. They offers turkey tea ☕️ which is really authentic 😍

The Blue Mosque is a truly peaceful and beautiful place. I had the opportunity to pray salah inside, and it felt very calm and spiritual. The atmosphere is serene, and the architecture is stunning — definitely a must-visit in Istanbul. You can also find free souvenirs here for visitors; I received two English-translated Qur’an Al-Majid as a gift, which was a wonderful gesture. Overall, a deeply meaningful experience.

The Blue Mosque (Sultanahmet Camii) is not just a place of worship — it is a masterpiece that breathes history, devotion, and artistry. The harmony between its majestic domes, elegant minarets, and the endless blue Iznik tiles creates an atmosphere that is both serene and awe-inspiring. Stepping inside feels like stepping into a gentle whisper of centuries, where light dances softly across patterns that were crafted with love, patience, and deep spiritual meaning. The peaceful ambiance invites you to slow down, breathe, and simply be. Whether you come to pray, admire the architecture, or reflect quietly, the Blue Mosque embraces you with a warm, timeless beauty. It stands proudly in the heart of Istanbul — a city where the past and present walk side by side. Truly, it is one of the world’s most enchanting treasures, a monument that touches both the eyes and the heart.

Absolutely loved my visit to the Blue Mosque. The iconic blue tones inside are truly breathtaking, even more beautiful in person. The entire area is very clean and well-maintained, making the experience feel calm and comfortable. What impressed me the most is how rich it is in ancient history—you can really feel the heritage and stories behind every corner of the mosque. A must-visit spot in Istanbul, whether you love architecture, culture, or simply want to enjoy a peaceful moment in a historic place. Highly recommended!

Mosque itself is beautiful, but I have to remove one star because of the crowds. The ques are endless so prepare for waiting. We came early so somehow we managed to get inside quite quickly. Inside of mosque it was packed, the air was heavy, not a peaceful experience as mosque should be, people were pushing each other there, very hard to enjoy the beauty or make a picture. We went out very quickly. There are many mosques with free entry around which are beautiful and not so crowded so you can actually enjoy it.

Stepping into the Sultan Ahmed Mosque is like entering a different realm of tranquility. Known globally as the "Blue Mosque," this 17th-century masterpiece was commissioned by a young Sultan Ahmed I to rival the grandeur of the Hagia Sophia sitting just across the square. Its exterior is a breathtaking cascade of domes and semi-domes, framed by six slender minarets—a daring architectural choice that caused a scandal at the time for rivaling the architecture of Mecca itself. The true marvel, however, awaits inside. The nickname derives from the more than 20,000 handmade Iznik ceramic tiles that adorn the high interior walls. While the lower levels feature traditional designs, the upper galleries explode in varying shades of turquoise and deep blue, featuring intricate tulip, carnation, and cypress motifs. When the sun streams through the 260 stained-glass windows, the blue tiles glow, creating an ethereal, underwater atmosphere that contrasts beautifully with the massive "elephant foot" pillars supporting the structure. Unlike a museum, this remains an active place of worship, which adds a profound layer of reverence to the visit. You must remove your shoes and dress modestly to enter. I recommend visiting mid-morning on a weekday to avoid the prayer closures and see the light at its peak. It is an essential, soul-stirring stop in Istanbul.

This place is well-decorated, open and gives you the vibe of a spiritual place. The entrance is free. During prayer hour it's closed for public. Anyone can visit this mosque, but make sure your legs are covered and women need a head scarf. If you are not carrying one, you can get a free head cover at the mosque, beware of the sellers around the mosque they will inform you that you need one but forget to mention that the mosque provides one for free at the entrance. They even provide pants.

What a beautiful mosque constructed back in 1600 century also called Sultan Ahmet Mosque. I was there mostly for Fajr prayer also had Jummah prayer and Namaz e Janazah. The only disadvantages i have found is communication barrier as their all conversation was in turkish language even the khutbah knowingly that there are so many foreigners praying there... Secondly if come at an odd time for prayer you will find the mosque close and then you have to pray outside of the mosque. Their qirat was so beautiful and they prefer to recite quran before and after of all Namaz

I think this is a place that should be visited. It is impressive, massive, and it truly makes you wonder how such a structure was built so long ago. Pay attention to timing — go early in the morning or later in the evening if you don’t want to move through the crowds like cattle. It gets very busy, but the experience is worth it. You don’t need to pre-book tickets or wait in long lines; there are ticket machines available on site.

Breathtaking place to visit. Light changing colours may seem a little awkward but nice. If you're a photo enthusiast you will find a good place to practice. Maybe the most iconic columns are guarded by a not-so-nice guy who's hurrying people with an annoying whistle. Entrance is around 3.000 TL per person. But it's worth the price.

Must go when in Turkey. There’s 2 other cisterns nearby that is less popular with cheaper entry too to visit. But this one is quite spectacular. The way the walkway is laid out is good too as you make your way above the water level to the exit. Keep a lookout for Medusa and try not to stare into her eyes, less you become one with the cistern. In stone. It is recommended to buy tickets before hand to skip the line which could take more than an hour to enter. The only line you have to do is the security check and it is even more cheaper if you buy the combo skip the line tickets with Topkapi and Hagia Sophia. The walkway is dry so no special shoes needed. There’s also a ramp for wheelchair access.

Archeology and history at its greatest. The place is very well structured, but do mind if you can, to buy skip the line tickets-the queues are enormous. The ambience inside is really well placed, including the lighting and the way the route is positioned. Do not forget to make a wish next to Medusa Pilar stand.

The Basilica Cistern is one of Istanbul’s most impressive historical sites and a must-see landmark. Located near Hagia Sophia, this ancient underground water reservoir was built in the 6th century during the reign of Emperor Justinian I. The atmosphere is unique: dim lights, classical music in the background, and rows of 336 marble columns reflected in shallow water create a mysterious, almost cinematic feeling. The highlights include the two Medusa heads, placed sideways and upside-down, which are some of the most photographed elements in the cistern. The site is well-restored, and the walkways make it easy to explore, although it can get crowded during peak hours. Typically, a visit takes 20–30 minutes. Overall, the Basilica Cistern offers a combination of history, architecture, and ambiance that makes it one of the most memorable attractions in Istanbul.

This place is amazing! I first saw it in the movie Inferno. I thought, it's quite a character of a place. Such a magical place! Such mystery! So worthy of your time when you visit. So full of "wow" effect on me personally. What a historical place! If you can, get a guide to fully understand what and why particular things are inside the cistern.

The Basilica is a superb example of Roman/Eastern Roman architecture on display. In the construction, they have reused building materials. This is why some of the capitals, columns and bases are different (like the famous medusa one). It was quiet on a Monday in November, but I would imagine on other days in the peak period it will get busy

Really nice place, crowded, but it’s a visited/touristic spot thus this was expected. We really liked the streets and arhitecture, we went there everyday to discover something new. Nice to take walks and see the old buildings and ruins. We ignored the shops with souvenirs as they could kind of ruin the vibe. Totally one of the nicest places from the Bulgarian sea side resorts

If you want to visit the old town to see nice and unique architecture and ancient style streets - don't bother. Plenty of tables selling all kinds of cheap colourful plastic stuff... toys hanging everywhere, very crowded... especially if you are visiting with kids - you could not see any architecture.

Old Nessebar is a nice little isle for a sight seeing trip during a holiday at Sunny Beach Bulgaria. Nice historical place with some authentic old architecture and plenty of toerist shops. Also seem to have regular interesting activities during summer.

I did not spend the night in the old town, but I have bought souvenirs from various shops. It is very beautiful, the prices are OK and the personnel was very polite and helpful. It was a worthwhile experience!

Very bad expensive. Refrigerator is not connected to the permanent electricity of the hotel. It is connected to your room key. Means when you are out, the refrigerator doesn't work. The worst hotels in the world don't work like that. The size of WC is tiny: 22x26 cm!!!! It is a torture using the WC. The blankets have no cover and when I asked for that, they simply ignored me. Never again this place. Never.

The whole island a massive tourist trap. We managed to find only two streets that were not flooded with booths selling unrelated crap (Lafufu dools, Pokemon key rings, Brainrot towels). The vendors cover the houses with accessories that have nothing to do with the place. People use loudspeakers to promote their stuff. Some walk up to you trying to sell you some jewelry. My whole family were disgusted. We came for UNESCO sites and we're badly disappointed.

If you are staying nearby a visit to Old Nessebar is a must. We stayed in Sveti Vlas and got the boat over, which was nice too. It's a nice relaxed environment with some great history and nice places to eat too. We went in June and was told it got really busy in July and August, with narrow streets it could get very crowded.

Sofia’s most iconic and grand cathedral, and its size combined with its stunning architecture gives it a truly commanding presence. Construction: Built between 1882 and 1912 to honor Russian soldiers who died during the Russo-Turkish War (1877–1878), which liberated Bulgaria from Ottoman rule. Architectural Style: Neo-Byzantine, with striking gold-plated domes and intricate frescoes inside. Capacity: Can accommodate up to 5,000 people, making it one of the largest Eastern Orthodox cathedrals in the world. Features: Lavish interior with marble columns, mosaics, icons, and a massive iconostasis. Significance: Serves as the patriarchal cathedral of Bulgaria, a national symbol of faith, history, and Bulgarian liberation.

The Alexander Nevsky Cathedral is absolutely stunning and definitely a must see in Sofia. The architecture is breathtaking, from the golden domes to the beautifully detailed interior. What really impressed me is the feeling this place gives you. It truly evokes emotion, reflection and a quiet sense of presence. Inside, the frescoes are exceptional, full of depth and beauty, and they make the whole experience even more meaningful. Even if you have seen many cathedrals before, this one really stands out. Iconic, impressive and full of history, it adds something special to your time in Sofia.

The Saint Alexander Nevsky Cathedral is one of those places that truly catches your eye the moment you see it. Its massive size, golden domes, and unique architecture make it stand out instantly in the city. You can’t help but stop and admire it from the outside. Once you step inside, the atmosphere completely changes. It’s quiet, spacious, and full of beautiful details. The murals, icons, and soft lighting create a calm and almost mystical feeling that makes you want to walk slowly and take everything in. One of the best things is that entrance is completely free, so visiting is very easy. The area around the cathedral is also lovely for a walk, taking photos, or just enjoying a bit of local life.

Such a wonderful cathedral and the largest in the Balkans. It's Neo-Byzantine style is glamorous and admirable. The artwork and chandeliers were such an eyesight. The cathedral is a symbol of Sofia and must visit. There was no wait time during the week and no tickets. A small donation to light up a candle is a nice idea. The crowd was very low.

I was lucky enough to walk in during service and it was magical. There was a beautiful choir singing and the sound was spectacular. I was in tears. The building and the energy almost commands you to be present. The visitors were very respectful. A must visit. I would assume Saturday afternoon is when they have a service.

Free entry. You can either pray or visit or both. One of the most iconic landmarks in Sofia with pure golden roof finish donated by Russia long time ago. Inside, all those riches and hand painted pictures of all Bulgarian saints. Regardless of your faith, it must been seen while visited Sofia.

A breathtaking masterpiece Alexander Nevsky Cathedral is one of those places that compels you to stop, look up, and remain silent. Its grandeur can be perceived from afar, but it is only when you get closer that you can truly appreciate every detail: golden domes shining in the sun, a majestic facade, and an almost magical feeling that accompanies every step. Upon entering, the atmosphere changes completely: soft lighting, the scent of incense, and wonderful icons that tell centuries of faith and history. Even those who are not religious cannot remain indifferent in the face of such beauty. Everything seems to speak of spirituality, art, and Bulgarian identity. I recommend visiting both during the day, to admire its architectural magnificence, and in the evening, when the lighting makes it even more evocative. A must-see for anyone passing through Sofia: it is not just a cathedral, it is an experience that remains in your heart.

Must vist place in belgrade serbia. The Fortress is a must visit when in the city. Originally built by the Romans in the 1st century AD, the fortress has seen countless empires rise and fall including Byzantine, Hungarian, Ottoman, and Austrian, each leaving its own mark. The Ottomans, who ruled Belgrade for nearly two centuries, rebuilt and expanded large parts of the fortress. You can still see traces of their presence in the design of the gates, the remains of the mosque near the Upper Town, and the general layout that reflects their military architecture. The surrounding Kalemegdan Park adds charm to the visit, offering shaded paths, sculptures, and views across the rivers. Key highlights within the fortress include the Victor Monument, and the Military Museum, which houses weapons from various periods of Serbian and Balkan. Great history, great view, great vepons

Clean. Well maintained. Free entry. Has free public toilets. Good place to explore and have a walk. The views of New Belgrade and the Danube are amazing.

It is a beautiful place. No entry ticket to most of the places. View of the rivers is beautiful. It was cloudy during our stasis we missed sunset. Chapel is worth visiting

Beautiful, I mean a must visit in Belgrade and free, lots of tanks and anti tanks outside, nice park, read the small signs along the walking it will tell you more about the history of it.

We went here on a walking tour of Belgrade. It is well laid out and provides a great setting to learn about the history of the area, city, and country. There are plaques throughout with some information but so much can be understood just by looking a the location to understand why it was a critical place for a fortification.

Cool views of the city, some armored vehicles on display at the gates, nothing too special. I liked reading the informative labels throughout the fortress, they were detailed. You can climb on some of the walls, other than that there are some basketball/tennis courts right outside that don’t really match the vibe.

I went here on the 31/8/2025 and I had such a bad experience. The park looked like it was from a war zone with trash, used syringes, faeces, urine and weeds everywhere. Really third world country conditions. It was full of people begging and homeless people that were screaming at the top of their lungs for no reason and the area generally felt really unsafe. I would not recommend visiting it under no circumstances. So sad

Sarajevo is such a unique and fascinating city it is full of history, culture, and charm. You can feel the mix of East and West everywhere: Ottoman-era bazaars, Austro-Hungarian streets, and modern city life all side by side. Walk through Baščaršija, find a coffee shop and enjoy the Bosnian coffee

This area is obviously very touristy but part of its charm comes from all the people just relaxing at cafes. I went in the afternoon around 3 pm and it was quite busy. I also plan to drop by earlier in the day when it is a bit quieter. It is the part of town where you can transport yourself back to what it might have been like in “ye olden days”

Baščaršija is Sarajevo's old bazaar and the historical and cultural center of the city. Baščaršija was built in the 15th century when Isa-beg Ishaković founded the city. On Baščaršija there are several important historic buildings, such as the Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque and Sahat-kula. Today Baščaršija is the major tourist attraction of Sarajevo. In the local coffee shop they serv the best coffee.

Baščaršija, Sarajevo — What an amazing experience! The whole area has such a traditional and unique vibe, full of history, charm, and life. The food and sweets are absolutely delicious, and the people are incredibly kind and welcoming. Walking through Baščaršija feels like stepping back in time — a must-visit for anyone coming to Sarajevo!

Feast your eyes and heighten your smell, taste and hearing while watching your spending. You can easily over eat and spend! Judge for yourself as I shared pictures taken while strolling through restaurants, vendors, desserts, coffees and so much more! Definitely a must when you visit Bosnia. Please thumbs up if you appreciate the information.

Baščaršija is Sarajevo's old bazaar and the historical and cultural center of the city. Baščaršija was built in the 15th century when Isa-beg Isaković founded the entire town. The word Baščaršija comes from the word "baš", which means "main" in Turkish, so Baščaršija means "main bazaar". Due to a big fire in the 19th century, today's Baščaršija is twice as small as it used to be. Baščaršija is located on the northern bank of the river Miljacka, in the municipality of Stari Grad Sarajevo. Baščaršija is home to several important historical buildings, such as the Gazi Husrev Bey Mosque and the Clock Tower. Today, Baščaršija is the main tourist attraction of the city of Sarajevo.

Sarajevo is such a beautiful city and its Central market square is a unison of cultures, religions and people from all over the world. It is lovely just to stroll among narrow streets, grab some coffee or food as well as do some local craft shopping.

Wow! Fantastic experience! You could easily spend the whole day at the park. There are number of trails leading around the lakes and under the waterfalls. Every part of it looks do beautiful. The water is extremely clean and the colours vary from light blue to turquoise green. It’s a must go destination in Croatia

Absolutely stunning nature, I felt like I was wandering through the loveliest dream. Aside from the obvious, the forest itself is incredibly beautiful, soft, nurturing, with ivy covered trees, moss adorned rocks, and colorful leaves blanketing the forest floor. I highly recommend coming in mid to late October for the fall foliage, it imbues a mystical quality to this already enchanted place.

Very beautiful park and easy to access. We was lucky to get 2 versions of the scenery. We came late on day 1 (17 Nov), so we decided to revisit in the next day. There was significant snow and the scenery had changed. Although we couldn't go to your lakes due to the weather, the scenery in lower lakes was fantastic.

Such a beautiful serene environment, walking on the trails did get a bit busy at times but once you're in its amazing to see little pockets of natural beauty, clear waters, different varieties of fish, plants and many jaw dropping waterfalls, too many to count. I would highly recommend for anyone visiting Croatia.

This park is really fantastic. We were here for two days. Walked about 30 km. Some areas quite busy (great waterfall). If possible i recommend an early start to avoid the tourists coming in by busloads. The lakes are great and everything is remarkably clean. We had a great time, highlight of our trip to Croatia.

It's no wonder the Plitvice Lakes are called Croatia's main attraction. It's a vast and incredibly beautiful national park. We visited in the summer, so everything was blooming and green. The park's highlight is the many waterfalls it has. Here, the waterfalls resemble delicate lace, an exquisite interplay of streams and intertwining water flows - there waterfalls upon waterfalls. If you're in Croatia, don't miss the opportunity to admire this spectacle! Some of the hiking trails will easily last a few hours, so prepare to spend a full day here.

Great planning in the national park, with bus and boat inclusive with the ticket which is unbelievable at this kind of world-famous tourist spot. Experienced route H, spent around 5 hours and quite easy to walk, thanks for the bus taking us uphill and start at the top with over 80% of the journey are downhill. Fall season should be promoted more, the view is amazing, weather is comfortable but obviously there are not many visitors during Oct.

A must-go museum that displays an array of relics of lost and broken love. Reading various related stories was so interesting, and I had a very impressive time there. The clerks inside were so kind, and they had a decent souvenir shop and an inside café to chill myself after passing through a lot of heartbreaking stories. If I could, I would rate this place 6 out of 5 stars.

A must see! A unique museum collection containing various items “of one’s affection” that at some point required dismissal for resolution. Donor’s also offer a vignette of the relationship behind the objects. Decide for yourself, if and where you fit into these stories , and have a cathartic experience for a few hours. There are 5-6 small rooms , lots of interesting readings that require 1-2 hours of your time. Clever idea to put together this collection. One that will keep growing as long as humanity is involved!

Wonderful little museum filled with mementos and poignant stories about the people, things, events and places that we fall in love with and have to let go. If you enjoy stories about being human and want to experience a different kind of museum filled with humanity then you must go. I thoroughly enjoyed! Spent about 1-1.5 hours there. Nice, comfortable cafe attached. This is in historic old town or upper town

Based off the name of this museum, you’d expect it to be rather depressing… and it kinda is, but in a touching way. Genuine stories, genuine heartbreak, real people. It’s a Museum of Broken Relationships, as the name implies… but, of all kinds of broken relationships, some of which will give you a laugh. Some of which… don’t. I bought my tickets in advance, but when I got there it was rather empty (I went October 1), so it was very easy. I have heard it can get quite busy though, which is why I got tickets in advance. Don’t skip this.

I really liked it and I think it is a must see if you are in Zagreb! You have to do a lot of reading but it is worth it. The stories are as different as the objects and whats very cool - they are from around the world. Some you may like, some may bore you, some may leave something to think about. This is a bit different kind of museum as we are used to but thats another beauty of it🥰

We came here as we'd heard of it as a must see and unique tourist attraction, as well as the fact that it was open quite late in the night when we had some free time. The entry fee was €7 per adult and overall, I was very disappointed. The museum is only made up of about 5 or so rooms with mementos from past relationships, each with a note detailing the backstory of the piece. None of the items themselves are really that interesting, and you'd have to do a lot of reading about each item to understand the meaning behind them. However, most of the stories are just average break up stories and I didn't feel emotionally engaged by any of them. The most interesting part for me was reading the guest book at the back with some pretty funny comments on there. If it was a free museum then I would say go there since it's a very unique concept so it could be interesting. But paying €7 to look at some objects from broken relationships, it's not really worth it.

Gotta be honest, I was expecting some sort of tourist trap. Hell I was wrong!!! Despite its small size, this is one of the most interesting and engaging museums you'll ever visit. Each object tells such a compelling and vivid story of heartbreak that transports you to the heartbreaks you've experienced in your life. Some of the stories here are funny, some are sad, some are devastating (one in particular made me cry a lot!).

Gorgeous arena. A must see when in Pula. Beautiful weather helped to get some beautiful shots. More than 2000 years old and one of six biggest amphitheatres still standing.. breathtakingly stunning.

We visited Pula Arena and oh my God, it was incredible. It’s absolutely worth paying to go inside. Once you’re in, you can walk around everywhere and really feel like you’ve stepped back into ancient Roman times. The Arena is in very good condition - well preserved and majestic. It’s a gorgeous spot for photos, history lessons, or just soaking up atmosphere. What impressed me most is how immersive it feels - you can almost imagine the crowds, the spectacles, the echoes of the past. Also, I discovered that the Arena is sometimes used for theatre and opera performances, which must be fantastic in such a setting. The Pula Arena (also called the Pula Amphitheatre) was built between 27 BC and AD 68 and is one of the world’s six largest surviving Roman arenas. It’s especially remarkable because it’s the only Roman amphitheatre with all four side towers fully preserved.

Pula is a small town, so seeing such a grandiose structure from the era of the great Roman Empire here is both unexpected and impressive. There are far fewer visitors than at the Roman Colosseum, so everyone has the unique opportunity to find a secluded spot, stand, and reflect on eternity, on how times, customs, and games have changed over the centuries. Don't miss the small but fascinating museum located in the arena's underground chambers—it's dedicated primarily to olive oil production in Istria.

What a site to see! Amazing roman arena built between 27–68 AD. Sixth largest in the world. There is a fee to enter and you are free to walk around once inside. There are QR codes that provide a self guided tour using your phone. Bring ear buds or headphones for the audio. This is one of the best preserved amphitheaters in the world. This is a must see.

This was a really amazing experience. So incredible to be inside such a huge part of history. The price is very affordable. This was our favorite thing that we did in Pula. I would highly recommend stopping by even if just for this experience!

It was easy to purchase tickets. We were able to just stroll around and look at the view of the amphitheatre. The souvenir shop also had lots of unique items that I haven’t seen at other places. Overall, it was a lovely experience for a Sunday afternoon.

The 8th largest Arena of the roman empire, the arena of Pula was only ever and exclusively used for gladiatorial fights and could not be flooded like its larger cousin in Rome. Sea fights were instead conducted directly in the bay, onlyeters from the arena itself. The outer walls are amazingly well preserved l, though half of the seating had been removed bu the venetians to be used for building material. Below the arena in the catacombs, there is an exhibition about roman life in istria, showing artefacts of a nearby olive oil manufactury. This place is an absolute must visit for history fans!

Great central location, great service. The staff were very responsive to help us with any issues. The room is compact and comfortable. The kitchen is a bit of a tight squeeze but is well equipped.

Great location and great price. Everything you'd need. The bedroom is separate to the main room and it has a kitchenette, it is centrally located too with a large choice of bars and restaurants close by. Even though they are close we never had any noise problems. I don't think I would go back to Ljubljana again as I think I have experienced everything it has to offer but if I did go back I would stay here again.

U will not find a better location for a city tour. Great starting place for exploring the city, especially old town. Yet, noise levels at night are very low. No problem getting sleep here. We had Appartment 2 - it had everything we hoped for.

Very nice rooms and host, location is just perfect.

Stinking, suffocating, full of insects and cockroaches ... The location is excellent

I could not get the TV work.

Clean, tidy, all the essentials. Great location.

Postojna Cave Ticket Store – A Smooth Start to an Incredible Journey Purchasing tickets at Postojna Cave was a seamless and pleasant experience that set the tone for the adventure ahead. The ticket store is located right next to the main entrance, easy to find, and well-organized. Even with a steady flow of visitors, everything moved efficiently thanks to clear signage and helpful staff. Although online booking is also available and highly recommended during busy periods. The staff were welcoming, spoke excellent English, and explained the different ticket options, including combo packages that cover additional sights like Predjama Castle. What I appreciated most was the detailed information provided at the ticket counter — they explain the tour timings, meeting points, and even suggest how to plan extra activities if you have more time in the area. It made organizing our visit stress-free. The standard cave ticket includes an exciting electric train ride and a guided walking tour. While the live guides are very knowledgeable, the audio guide available in multiple languages is also an excellent option. I found the audio guide particularly helpful for getting deeper insights without feeling rushed, and it allows you to enjoy the magical surroundings at your own pace. Overall, the Postojna Cave ticketing experience was extremely professional, friendly, and efficient. It’s clear they care about making every visitor’s experience smooth from the very beginning — an excellent introduction to one of Slovenia’s greatest natural wonders.

Awesome. Amazing journey. Don't let the "talk" of it being "Disneyland like" deture you from going. The cave "rooms" are HUGE. Incredible complex and a highlight of our trip while in Slovenia. ( €25.80 p/p )

Caves are stunning as well as Predjamski castle. Shuttle bus to the castle start at 10am although castle is open from 9am. Timetable isn't on the web site.

A beautiful natural place, everything very well organized, on time, and although it is a little expensive it was totally worth it.

Most stunning place you can imagine. Spectacular, incredible. How can you deny God’s hand in every corner….

Great experience for kids and adults. Was there at summer 2017. Amazing journey through the mountains

its worth to watch it. staff is very nice.

There are places that impress you, and then there are places that touch you. Piazza Unità d’Italia is the heart and soul of Trieste – a square that doesn’t just stand still in time, but breathes with the history, pride, and elegance of generations. Facing the Adriatic Sea, this square is both open and monumental – a rare balance of grandeur and intimacy. Surrounded by magnificent buildings and kissed by the sea breeze, it’s a place where you instantly feel present and small in the most beautiful way. By day, it shines with architectural harmony and calm Mediterranean charm. By night, it transforms into something almost poetic – glowing lights, reflections on the water, and an atmosphere that makes you slow down and simply absorb the moment. Being here with my family felt like stepping into a painting. It’s not just a place to visit – it’s a place

The square looks impressive, the buildings around it architectural masterpieces. However, I didn't get a sense of the scale and spaciousness of the square. My wife and I visited the square on the closing day of the annual regatta (Barcolana). The entire space was filled with decorations, advertising banners, and prefabricated stalls selling food and beer. It was very noisy, crowded everywhere, but fun.

A beautiful place!! A huge plus is that there weren't masses of tourists so the square was really clear. The view is immersive!! 🤩 All the buildings look amazing. 🌟

1 | Piazza Unità d’Italia is the largest square in Europe opening onto the sea, its area is over 12,000 m². 2 | The square is definitely worth a visit and can easily be combined with a walk to the pier. We were there on a summer evening when the illuminated town hall building dominated the scene. 3 | The square is lined with numerous restaurants and cafés where you can sit down and relax. What surprised me was that most grocery stores close as early as 9:00 PM.

It is a big flat old stone dock. Great to walk once or twice, be aware that there is no shade in the 37c sun and little room to sit. It was enjoyable to see the Adriatic sea and look at any big ships docked but nothing else.

A beautiful big square facing the Adriatic Sea with 3 impressive palace buildings and a fountain. This is the seat of the local government for the city and the region. The square is used for concerts and parades and large civic events. Many famous music artists have played here including Green Day, Duran Duran, Carlos Santana, Iron Maiden, Garbage, Mike and Snoop Dogg

Trieste’s Unity of Italy Square is one of the most beautiful squares in Europe — a grand open space facing the Adriatic Sea. The view is breathtaking, especially at sunset. It’s home to some elegant cafés, including a very famous one, though the prices match the view :)

Idyllic, restful & charming place to visit! Lovely to take the Pletna boat to visit the church, walk around the lake and climb up to the church & castle! Blessed to be able to enjoy the beauty of this lake & surroundings!

A lake with a small island and being overlooked by a castle on an intimidatingly high hill. An absolutely gorgeous lake. I’d recommend two days in the area, with one dedicated to the lake and castle.

if you happen to be in Slovenia, you shouldn’t miss out on Bled lake! stunning views wherever you go! you can take a swim in the lake, there are also boats services! There are resting points with restaurants and ice cream shops.

Bled is a must visit if you are in Slovenia. We came around end of September, got caught in the rain for the first night but the second day was perfect with sunny weather. Not too crowded during our visit. We love it

It’s our first time in Slovenia so we had to see iconic Lake Bled. We spent 4 hours walking around the lake and taking our time to enjoy the place. It’s beautiful as in a fairytale and there’s plenty to do, toboggan, kayak, SUP, take a pletna boat to the island, just walk around, have a picnic. It’s perfect. There’s definitely tourists around, like ourselves but it wasn’t overcrowded on the day we went in late September. We parked at Straza Bled, found the price most reasonable amongst other carparks for the distance to Lake Bled. 3€ for first 2 hours and 3€ for every next hour. It’s also right next to the fun toboggan.

The island of Maria on Lake Bled feels both real and timeless. I stumbled upon this as the weather shifted, the sun breaking through while a gentle rain fell, creating a moment that felt almost otherworldly.

One of the best lakes in Europe to relax and enjoy. The church is located in the middle of the lake. We can visit the church via rowing boat. Unfortunately we don't have enough time to visit the church and castle. Overall the lake is worth seeing.

Very nice fortress overlooking the city of Salzburg. You get some magnificent view from up there. You also have the opportunity to got to the top of the fortress and get a full 360 degree view of the region. They have some nice museums and displays inside the fortress. Definitely worth it to spend some good amount of time. Even if you are here for short time, it would recommend 1.5hr just to walk through the entire area.

Bought the entrance and funicular train ticket and it's a enjoyable trip up the hill to the castle. Plenty of stuff to see in the fortress and also great view of Salzburg city from the top of the castle. Really beautiful scenery and we don't want to leave but had to rush to find the train station as we need to catch the 12pm Hallstatt tour.

We visited the Fortress Hohensalzburg and had a memorable experience. We didn’t know about the funicular to go up, so we walked all the way — a great cardio workout and a nice way to enjoy the surroundings. 🏰 The fortress itself is beautiful and very well preserved, offering a fascinating glimpse into Salzburg’s history. The museum inside is truly impressive, with excellent exhibits that make the visit even more enriching. 🌄 The highlight, however, is the breathtaking view from the top. Looking out over Salzburg and the surrounding mountains is simply unforgettable. ✅ Overall, Fortress Hohensalzburg is a must-see attraction in Salzburg. Whether you take the funicular or walk up, the combination of history, architecture, and stunning scenery makes it well worth the visit.

Truly beautiful, must see spot in Salzburg. Definitely recommend the panaromic view from the fortress tower. We unfortunately hadn’t visited neither the museum nor the armory, but we enjoyed it anyway. We really appreciated the stand where we could get for ourselves some Glühwein and simply enjoy the beautiful night view.

We thought there would be more spaces that were open for tours, but the tour was still good. The restaurant in the fortress was great! Service was great as well as the food and we enjoyed as much as we could eat as the portion sizes were large.

This is a fascinating site. There are many things to see in this historic place. Be prepared for some step climbing to get the very best views. We enjoyed learning all the history about the Fortress. There are rooms full of interesting items dating from ancient times to modern life.

Amazing castle and exhibition. Everything is modern, interactive and multisensory. Truly a nice example of the basic of how exhibitions today should look like. Plus the ticket's price is also very okay. 100% recommend buying tickets in advance though, there was a super long queue when buying on the spot.

In my opinion, this is one of the top 3 landscapes to see in Italy. My partner and I walked around the lake, which is 3.8 km long. At times there were quite a lot of people, even forming small queues, but for most of the route we could walk at our own pace. Tip: if the mountain views at the starting point don’t seem that impressive, it’s better to walk around the lake clockwise rather than counterclockwise. This way, the most beautiful part of the scenery will be towards the end of the walk, and your photos will turn out better.

Nice small lake and good views of the surrounding moutains. But in my opinion nothing out of the ordinary - its just a mountain lake and a very commercialised one. You can rent boats for 45min which will cost 55€ and parking is also 15€. The path around the lake is very crowded as well. I think there are more beautiful and especially more calm lakes in the dolomites that would be worth your time and money.

Lago di Braies is absolutely breathtaking! The crystal-clear turquoise water surrounded by majestic mountains looks like something out of a postcard. It’s the perfect place for a peaceful walk, a boat ride, or just relaxing and taking in the view. Every angle is stunning, especially in the early morning or at sunset. The air feels so fresh and calm—it’s pure magic. A must-see spot in the Dolomites that you’ll never forget!

Best lake in the Dolomites in Italy and a MUST visit. It is also referred to as 'The pearl of the Dolomites'. Circular route around this magical mountain lake is a great experience for young and old because the entire hiking trail is safe and well marked. Walking distance from bus stop and car parking.

Gloomy day for us but still breathtaking views. Rented a row boat and bopped around the lake for a bit before grabbing a bite and heading out. Plan your trip accordingly, it can be crazy during the busy months. Do your research!

Taken last 11th of November 2025, very worth it. Inlove with the view, hopefully to see this beauty as well on Summer and Spring. ❤️ 💙 💜

Gorgeous turquoise lake that reminds me of lake Louise in banff Canada. Rented a row boat for 55€ that includes 2 magnets and 45 minutes of row time. It was pretty windy with a slight drizzle when we arrived at 5:30pm. Last boat is at 7pm. There was a slight wait but we didn’t wait too long to get on the lake

Beautiful garden with a wide variety of botanical riches--from the "trees of the world" area to the amazing and artful viewing platform set high above the garden to the more formal plantings around the big pond and in the sunny hills near the castle. We spent a few hours here and enjoyed every minute.

Absolutely wonderful gardens, walks and fascinating flowers, trees and animals. Certainly worth a visit as the colours are exceptional.

We’ve visited the gardens and the castle in autumn. It was still worth it. You really need a whole day to see everything. It is very big. It is perfect for kids. They have baby goats and small farm animals. Beautiful views. We will come in summer.

Great place with a beautiful garden. You can stay hours and enjoy the beauty. Easy access by buses from the center.

We visited the Botanical Gardens of Schloss Trauttmansdorff and highly recommend it. Parking at P3 or P4 is free and just a short 5-minute walk to the entrance. The park is beautifully designed with a wide variety of landscapes and attractions. We started on the left and worked our way through to the right, spending about 2.5 hours in total. There’s a lot to see and experience. Some paths are quite steep, so it might be a bit challenging for older visitors. Overall, a stunning place well worth the visit.

Must see if you are in the area, 3-4 hours is minimum to be able to see all

This place is so awesome I don't even want to write a review about it, it might make it busier in this era of overtourism. But anyway: this garden is too beautiful to be true: the location in the Alps, the hilly terrain of the park, and the variety of plants and flowers and artwork. Usually it's sunny here which really helps. We were here in late October which was perfect. Walking around is not really doable for people who don't walk well. Parking is easy, there's also a bus to the station and it's an easy detour from the Brenner tollway.

Value for money if you go during happy hours. Even if you don’t find tickets online, just go there and they will apply the discount of 20% during happy hours. We went around 4 PM and I think it is perfect timing. Very little rush in funicular, cable cars (there are 2) , view point and also in the cafe/restaurant.

Great visit. A total of two sets is cable car takes you to the top location. The views are splendid. Allow approx. 3 hours for the complete trip.

Amazing thing to do when you want to escape the heat in the city on a hot cloudless day! Cable car and gondola can be packed. Getting tickets online is a good idea. It’s not cheap but the views totally worth it!

I came here in March 2025 I had a brilliant time going to The Top Of Innsbruck. Exciting travel up the mountain. Short but sweet walks. Brilliant views. Food and drink options. A very fun climb to the top. wait time for cable cars is usually not too bad.

The queuing time was quite long here to go up even in January. It seems reasonably priced until you workout the price of the cable car to go right to the top and then it is pretty expensive. The ride halfway up on the funicular is pretty fast, the trains are modern and you do get great views. When you get halfway there is a great viewing platform and you can see right across the city of innsbruck even as far as the ski jump

Fantastic experience with 3 different cable cars getting you to the top. The lines were relatively long (wait time between 10-25 mins) but the views and the hikes you are offered are second to none. Recommend using the Welcome Card you get from your hotel in Innsbruck to buy tickets for the cable car in person (we got 20% off).

An excellent way to see the top of Innsbruck! The station is clean and well maintained, and the ticketing system was clear. This is the first station for the rail car, then there are two more cable cars to reach the top station. The entire journey takes maybe 30 minutes if you time it correctly.

A kind of “Central Park” in Munich – a very nice place to visit. The park is spacious, green, and perfect for a walk or to just relax. A special highlight is the surfers on the river – definitely a must-see attraction that makes this place unique.

One of the best places of the city. Perfect for strolling around, making picnics, relax to the sound of the leaves. For me, the best spot is the lake, where you can sit next to lots of ducks and other kinds of bird.

The English Garden in autumn is absolutely stunning. The trees turn golden, red, and orange, creating a beautiful contrast with the rivers and meadows. It’s perfect for peaceful walks, cycling, or just relaxing under the colorful leaves. The atmosphere feels calm and magical — a must-visit spot to experience Munich’s fall beauty.

A very beautiful place to visit. Basically u can do any outdoor activity outside, volleyball..picnics..football…even surfing?? So surprised. The water is very clear, u can see through it till the bottom. Full of energy.

The Heart of Nature in Munich 🌿 The English Garden is absolutely breathtaking — a perfect blend of peace, beauty, and city life. You can stroll along the rivers, watch surfers at the Eisbach, or simply relax under the trees and enjoy the calm atmosphere. It’s clean, green, and full of life — families, couples, and friends all enjoying the day together. Whether for a picnic, a bike ride, or just a quiet moment by the lake, the English Garden is truly one of Munich’s most magical places. ✨🌳

This is, without a doubt, the best place in Munich. It's a massive, beautiful urban park that feels like a world away from the city. You could easily spend an entire day here relaxing, walking, or watching the surfers.

A must see if you're in Munich. Absolutely an amazing park with lots to see and do there. Playgrounds for kids, lot's of places to get something to eat and drink. Plus a couple of places to surf, yes you read correctly surf. The river is very clean and as you can see in the photos, very popular with surfer's and fun to watch for non surfers. A true gem of a park in Munich. Oh this park is huge it'll take a few hours to take it all in.

Marienplatz is the beating heart of Munich — lively, historic, and absolutely beautiful. The New Town Hall is breathtaking, and the Glockenspiel show is worth waiting for. Whether you’re sightseeing, shopping, or just people-watching with a coffee, this square has the perfect Munich vibe.”❤️❤️❤️❤️

Marienplatz is the heart of Munich — full of life, history, and charm. The stunning architecture, lively atmosphere, and beautiful surroundings make it a must-visit spot. Whether you’re watching the Glockenspiel or enjoying a coffee nearby, every moment here feels special.

Considered the heart of Munich, this vibrant street offers everything you need. Shopping centers, restaurants, and cafes line the entire avenue, making it a truly beautiful place for shopping and strolling. Don't miss the opportunity to visit.

When I went out from underground it was just.. breathtaking. Place is pretty and alive. There's a lot of people, restaurants, pubs and coffee shops. Marienplatz is just a heart of Munich. I highly recommend visiting this place!

A Must-See Spot in Munich! Marienplatz is such a lively and beautiful place — truly the heart of Munich! We loved walking through the square, surrounded by amazing old buildings, shops, and cafés. The highlight was definitely the Glockenspiel at the New Town Hall — the music, the moving figures, and the whole crowd watching together make it feel so special. It’s the perfect spot to sit back, people-watch, and take in the atmosphere. Everything in Munich seems to connect here — the energy, the history, and the charm of the city all in one place. If you’re visiting Munich, don’t miss Marienplatz, especially around noon when the Glockenspiel comes to life, arrive 15 minutes early to find the best spot. It’s such a fun and unforgettable experience!

My favorite place to stroll around, watch people, and just enjoy the city vibe. You can walk, shop, eat, and simply get lost in the charm of Munich. There’s something about this place — the mix of old buildings, lively atmosphere, and cozy corners — that makes me always end up staying longer than planned. If you’re in Munich, just come here with no plan. Let the city take you wherever it wants to. ✨

The city center of Munich is an absolutely stunning and lively area centered around the famed Marienplatz. Dominated by the magnificent Neues Rathaus (New Town Hall), a Neo-Gothic architectural gem, the square's highlight is the famous Glockenspiel, which draws crowds daily to watch its mechanical figures perform. The area is a fantastic blend of history and modern life, with the towering Frauenkirche (Cathedral) just a short walk away, alongside the bustling Viktualienmarkt and the start of the main pedestrian shopping zones (like Kaufingerstraße). Whether you're sightseeing at the Residenz, shopping for luxury goods, or simply soaking up the authentic Bavarian atmosphere at a nearby Wirtshaus, the city center serves as the perfect, walkable hub for exploring all that Munich has to offer.

Visited in the autumn season — no snow, but the view was absolutely stunning! 🍁 The surrounding mountains and lakes looked breathtaking in golden shades. The cable car ride was smooth and offered amazing panoramic views. Even without snow, Zugspitze felt peaceful and majestic.

Very cool, highly recommend even if the mountain is covered in clouds up top. If that’s the case it would be nice if the ticket was discounted, but rain or shine it’s 75€ per person. There’s a restaurant & bar up there as well

Beautiful view, great experience as tourists. there is another cable that takes you to the skiing part it is on the other side of the mountain. car park just outside the cable station. restaurants and shop accessible restrooms very clean. there are 2 options to get up/down to Zugspitze, cable or train. it is 75€ 2 ways on the cable I felt terrible pressure going down so mabe it is better to take the train down.

Great place to visit if you want to experience high altitudes without actual climbing. Fast transfer by the cablecar, or more slow ascent by cogwheel train. The building at the summit has multiple floors and observation desks, you can cross to the Austrian side. There are restaurants on both sides. You can also take another cable car to the other side and play in the snow, even in August. Breathtaking views. Go early in the day to beat the clouds. There is also a small church. The bravest ones can climb the actual summit with the cross. Plan to spend at least a couple of hours and bring a sweater. Even in August.

The Zugspitze is the largest mountain of the Germany situated in the range of Alps Mountain, located on the scenic border between Germany and Austria, is an unforgettable experience and a must do especially for the fully snow covered peak and the thrill of the ascent. I highly recommend the cable car over the cogwheel train for the most breathtaking views, though both are covered in the approximately €75 combined ticket (which includes skiing access). We started by riding straight to the summit for a stunning, almost indescribable panorama, witnessing the sunset from the peak was a truly magical moment. We then descended to the lower Zugspitzplatt where the vast snow fields feel like a different universe perfect for playing in the snow and skiing. The ample parking, the presence of helpful mountain volunteers, and the organized operation make it a safe and enjoyable trip. Tip: Be sure to wear appropriate gear, especially warmers and gloves, and note that the last descent is strictly enforced, so plan to be back on the train or cable car around 4:30 PM. A truly wonderful and perfect day trip!

You can take the train to the mountain, from there you can take a cable car to the top. This was one of the greatest experiences we had it was so much fun going to the top. When you reach the top there’s snow everywhere and free sleds you can take and have some fun like you were a child. It’s really beautiful and worth every cent. There’s a restaurant on the top where you can enjoy a beer the good was also great

Zugspitze was amazing! The views were absolutely stunning and the mountain lounge was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the scenery. The cheesecake wasn’t the best, but honestly, the view made up for it.

The castle location is so beautiful. It is a treat for the sight just to hike towards the castle that is surrounded by bavarian alps. The guided tour, on the other hand is rather short (only 30min). The rooms are accessible only by lots of stairs and no photography is allowed. Only 14 castle rooms were furnished. Furthermore during our visit the cafe was also closed. This was a bummer since the ticket is so expensive for 23euros per person. Furthermore even though young kids are allowed inside the castle for free they need their own ticket and it can't be booked online. The ticket we got got our toddler from the information booth did not have a scan code and my daughter could not get inside so i had to run to fund security to let her inside. The security guide solved the issue quickly though. The point is that the ticket handling system must be more organized and improved upon. On the other hand, the cave room, singers room and the balcony were breath taking so the hassle was kind of worth it. The ticket price should be reduced though. I would say overall it was a very pleasant experience.

A real-life Disney castle — but truly so much more than that! ✨ I still couldn’t get enough of this place. Every corner feels like stepping into a fairytale. The guided tour is a must — make sure to book it early, as tickets sell out fast. No photos are allowed inside, but it’s absolutely worth it. Each room reflects incredible richness, elegance, and the artistic soul of King Ludwig II — his passion for theatre, music, and beauty shines through every detail. It’s about a 20-minute walk uphill from the ticket area, but they also offer bus services (check the timings!) and horse-drawn carriage rides for a more scenic way up. The path is a bit steep, but once you reach the top, the view and the castle itself make every step worth it. King Ludwig II was truly a dreamer — and walking through his creation feels like walking inside his imagination. Go see it — it’s magical, surreal, and simply unforgettable. 🌄💙

The castle is located in a beautiful setting. Tickets may be bought online or in person (reservation recommended for peak season). There’s free shuttle from downtown Füssen to the ticket center. There’s plenty of paid parking. To get up to the castle you may hire a chariot or walk up for 30-40 minutes. The scenery is beautiful and it is worth the walk. During summer the path is shaded by the threes. Inside the castle there’s plenty of stairs to go up. I advise looking up if it is wheelchair accessible.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ 4.5-Star Review – Neuschwanstein Castle Parking at Platz 4 is very spacious and costs €12 for 6 hours, conveniently located right next to where you catch the bus up to the castle. The bus fare is €5 per adult round trip, and it’s a smooth ride with beautiful scenery along the way. At the top, the area is clear and open, perfect for walking or biking with stunning views all around. The trails are beautiful, offering several photo spots and breathtaking panoramas of the castle and the valley below. There’s also a small snack and souvenir shop at the top with plenty of space and clean bathrooms, making it an easy and comfortable stop before or after exploring. Overall, Neuschwanstein Castle is a magical experience — well worth the visit and the walk. The scenery alone makes it unforgettable!

When near Fussen and Schwangau Neuschwanstein Castle is a must. A beautiful 40 minute uphill walk will bring you there. You can take a shuttle or horse and buggy but the walk is doable if you like and are used to walking/hiking. We did not pay to go in but got good photos from many vantage points outside.

You won't regret visiting here. It's beautiful on the outside but absolutely gorgeous on the inside. If you have trouble walking, definitely take the horse carriage up and/or down (costs money). The walk down is much easier. They have the cutest store after the tour and don't forget to check out the view outside near the bathrooms before leaving. You will not regret it!!

Absolutely breathtaking and immersive. The hike up is beautiful and you can take your time just enjoying the scenery. Plenty of photo opportunities outside of the castle, but no pictures inside until you get to the cafe.

It's my second time visiting this complex and I can highly recommend it. This time, I found out that the museum itself has been closed for several years already due to extensive renovations. Unfortunately this wasn't very clear online and when you get there the signage isn't very clear either - we walked right past the containerized ticket booth because when you walk towards the building from the parking lot, you can't see the signage. However, visiting the special exhibition was worth it. It's immensely important to expose yourself to our history - maybe one day we will learn?

Historical interesting but the museum is very small. Better go outside to have a look at the impressive structures

It was closed due to a rock concert. With all the camped attendees, it was a bit on the nose

Impressive to imagine what took place here years ago. Would have been nice to have some pictures/explanations outside in the visitor’s viewing place

Worth a visit. They are currently renovating and I expect that the updated museum will be excellent. No real signage for the other outdoor paths and buildings. We saw the interim exhibit and it was quite complete. €5 cash to park. Couple this site with the Nuremberg Court Rooms. (Make sure to pay the street parking fee as a whole line of cars got ticketed outside the court room.)

It was temporarily closed when I visited. If you want to see it reopened, go in 2026.

Nice place beside a beautiful lake . Very nice historical place.

A very successful experience for children aged 4-12. A large place with lots of options that are very difficult to complete in one day due to the long lines for most of the facilities. You have to arrive with a lot of patience. Overall, this is a park where the attractions themselves are not crazy, but the "wrapping" of Lego does its job. The place is very neat and clean and easy to navigate. Overall, this is a recommended day out for the family.

This is in my opinion the best of the 3 Legoland parks in Europe. Everything is good value here, especially the food and the quality of said food is fantastic. I went into the pizza restaurant and paid around €16 for a fresh out of the oven pizza and amazing chocolate tart. They both felt like they came from an expensive restaurant, very tasty and beautiful presentation. You have the best selection of rides here from small to thrilling. A really good variety - the best being Maximus. An absolutely thrilling b&m coaster which despite the short ride time, offers some incredible moments of weightlessness. The park is kept tidy and clean - the bathrooms are cleaned very regularly. Queues are managed well and have the bonus of single rider if you're a lone traveller like me. Saves a lot of time. Theres a few little themed shops dotted around and although a couple were closed on my trip due to the time of year possibly, there's still a lot on offer. More than any other Lego park in Europe like I said. I had the best 2 days here and I can't wait to come back again.

We took the kids to Germany and our first stop before traditional castles and museums was Legoland Germany! We LOVED it. Drove straight from airport to the hotel (we stayed at the Pirate Hotel), checked in, then did a full afternoon and evening till close. We ate at the steak restaurant near hotels and onsite for snacks, lunch, etc. We prepaid for breakfast at Pirate hotel. Because of birthdays, we did the birthday package (they decorated the room and more) and because tip mattered we did the VIP package. THIS was worth every penny! We skipped the line at every ride, got extra swag & mini figures, and store discounts [don’t forget to ask for tax refund forms at the store (typically 100 or more spent)]. The staff are awesome and most are bilingual if you are rusty. If you are a LEGO fan or traveling Germany with kids, this place is worth every penny! For the super fans, they had themes we found no where else (e.g. adventure series at the log ride); and rides that are not found at the US Legolands. Augsburg and Ulm are nearby if you need a culture/ museum break.

We spent lovely 2days here, great experience for us, adults and our kids. We had lovely weather, so a lot of people arrived, and some attractions were crowded, and we had to wait. Luckily it was just occasionally. Plus was Halloween decorations and products that can bring home🎃🎃 Thank you, will come again.

Great place for young kids . We spent one day there , 2 would have been better as we didn’t see everything. Very reasonable as once you pay all the rides are free . Ideal kids age 5-12.

An absolute dream holiday location for my family and I. My son and daughter loved it, the rides were great, food was good and queues were decent. Staff were very friendly, parking wasn't an issue and having Peppa Pig Park right next door made it ideal for my 2 year old daughter too! It was also great fun for my wife and I. Unforgettable memories were made and we cannot wait to visit once again!

If you or your kids like LEGO then you must visit, the place is huge and there are a lot of activities for all ages. To really cover it you need at least 2 days to get on most of the rides. The only downside is the large ques that form so you don't like to wait a lot then maybe pay more for the express pass. You can also get tickets online for both the park and the parking which I recommend to save some time.
