Plitvice Lakes National Park

Mentioned on 
+125 other lists 
National park
Nature & Parks
Plitvice Lakes National Park is a stunning destination in the heart of Croatia, known for its picturesque lakes, alpine forests, waterfalls, and caves. It's an ideal place for romantic getaways or family adventures. Couples can enjoy enchanting lookouts, romantic walks along the trails with the soothing sounds of waterfalls, and a stay at Jezero Hotel followed by a romantic dinner at Licka Kuca restaurant.
Plitvice Lakes National Park is one of pure, awe-inspiring beauty. The 16 lakes, connected by countless waterfalls and cascades in stunning turquoise-blue hues, are a true paradise. Walking on the wooden boardwalks allows you to get close to the water, feel the mist of the falls and see almost to the bottom of the lakes. It's an absolute must-do for any nature lover. Important points on the trails and walking conditions: The park offers a variety of routes (like C, H, F, E etc.) that combine walking, a boat ride on Lake Kozjak, and use of a shuttle. Most of the walking paths and boardwalks are very narrow, slippery, and sometimes uneven, and the park gets extremely crowded, therefore in my opinion the trails are not suitable for baby strollers or wheelchairs, also - access is difficult for people with walking difficulties or seniors who require stability. Recommended to wear comfortable walking shoes with good grip. Tickets: Recommended to book tickets online in advance for a specific time slot and entrance (1 or 2), as the daily visitor capacity is limited and tickets sell out quickly. It's best to arrive as early as possible (right at opening time) to avoid the biggest crowds. Paid parking is available at both entrances (make sure to park at the entrance for which you bought your ticket). Along the paths, there are several rest points with WCs and some places to buy food, but it's a bit pricey, so you can bring some water, sandwiches, or snacks. In summary, this is an amazing natural wonder that is worth every effort.

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
Alice K — Google review
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.
Chantal L — Google review
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.
Gahwin R — Google review
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.
A W — Google review
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.
M.pepers — Google review
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.
Mat B — Google review
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.

Old Bazaar - Skopje Old Town

Mentioned on 
+177 other lists 
Bazar
Sights & Landmarks
The Old Bazaar in Skopje is a lively and colorful area, showcasing the Ottoman architectural style with its mosques, markets, shops, and cafes. Visitors can immerse themselves in the city's culture by exploring museums like The National Archeology & Ethnology Museum and The Museum of Modern & Contemporary Art. Walking along the Kaldrma roads, also known as Sampietrini to foreigners, offers a glimpse into traditional Skopje with antique shops and quaint cafes.
The Old Bazaar in Skopje is a must-see destination filled with history, vibrant culture, and lively atmosphere. Wandering through the cobbled streets and maze-like alleys, you’ll discover everything from traditional shops and galleries to cozy coffee houses and excellent restaurants. The architecture blends Ottoman and Byzantine styles, with highlights like the Mustafa Pasha Mosque and historic inns, fully immersing visitors in centuries of heritage. Shopping here is a real experience—local vendors offer handmade crafts, antiques, and souvenirs at very reasonable prices. As you explore, the scent of grilled kebabs, fresh bread, and Turkish coffee fills the air. The area is also known for its friendly service and rich blend of Macedonian and Albanian cultures. The bazaar is not just about commerce; it’s a center for cultural events, nightlife, and people-watching. Whether you visit early in the morning for a quiet stroll or at sunset to see the stone streets glowing under golden lights, you’ll be captivated by the energy and charm of this part of Skopje. It’s well worth dedicating 2-3hours to truly soak it all in.
Hynek — Google review
The Old Bazaar in Skopje Old Town is a place that could be a charming dive into the city’s Ottoman past, but it ends up being an overwhelming and uncomfortable experience. The architecture is undeniably interesting, with its narrow cobblestone streets, old stone buildings, and remnants of a bygone era that give it a certain historical allure. The preserved shops, caravanserais, and traditional facades offer a glimpse into Skopje’s past, and for history buffs, this could be a highlight. However, the atmosphere is marred by issues that make it hard to enjoy. The area is overcrowded with gypsies, some of whom engage in persistent begging that feels intrusive and, at times, intimidating. This detracts significantly from the experience, turning a leisurely walk into a stressful navigation through constant solicitations. Additionally, the strong presence of Muslim culture, including frequent calls to prayer echoing from what feels like countless mosques, can be jarring for visitors not accustomed to it. While this is part of the area’s cultural fabric, the sheer volume and intensity can feel overwhelming, especially when combined with the chaotic crowds. The bazaar’s authenticity is a double-edged sword—it’s vibrant and bustling, but the lack of order and the aggressive street interactions make it feel less like a cultural gem and more like a disorganized mess. The absence of visible efforts to manage the crowds or maintain a welcoming environment for tourists only adds to the frustration. For every moment of architectural charm, there’s an equal dose of discomfort that makes the visit feel like a chore. In short, the Old Bazaar has the potential to be a fascinating stop in Skopje, but the intrusive begging and relentless noise from nearby mosques make it far less appealing. It’s a shame, as the historical elements deserve better presentation.

The Old Bazaar in Skopje was an unforgettable experience that truly captured the charm and spirit of the city. Walking through its narrow cobbled streets, I felt surrounded by history, with Ottoman-era architecture, old inns, and beautiful mosques creating a unique and timeless atmosphere. The blend of cultures and traditions gave the place a vibrant and authentic character. I loved browsing the small shops filled with traditional crafts, jewelry, and souvenirs, and the aroma of local food and coffee made the visit even more delightful. The lively yet welcoming atmosphere made it easy to spend hours exploring. The Old Bazaar was a perfect mix of history, culture, and everyday life—a highlight of my trip to Skopje.
Mohsin R — Google review
historic marketplace that has been a hub of trade and culture since the Ottoman period. Lined with mosques, hammams, and artisan shops, it blends Eastern and Western influences, offering a vibrant glimpse into the city’s multicultural past and living traditions. Enjoy walking and around but be aware - on Sunday only few shops and restaurants are open, most of the shops are closed.
Matej S — Google review
Visiting this place is like taking a trip back in time. It is one of the largest and oldest bazaars in the Balkans, dating back to the 12th century. The narrow cobblestone streets are filled with Ottoman-era architecture. The atmosphere is vibrant, full of craft shops, jewelers, cafes and restaurants. I found it great for a stroll, buying simple souvenirs and soaking up a genuine atmosphere.

A very interesting place, calm and vibrant in the same time. Worth to give it some time, both during daytime and in the evening, not only for shopping or having a beer or a coffee, but for a slow walk, to enjoy its history and spirit.

Charming bazar with great food, but watch the weather Visited on 26 October 2025 and spent about 2 hours exploring and trying food. The Old Bazar is a cute, small, historic area full of character, with lots of different things to try — perfect for wandering, taking in the architecture, and sampling local treats. We especially enjoyed some lokma at Lokmades Skopje, which was absolutely delicious! It was a bit rainy during our visit, and some roads had standing water due to poor drainage, so I’d suggest visiting on sunny days for a more comfortable experience. Overall, a must-visit spot for those wanting a taste of traditional Skopje and local flavors. ✅ Recommended.
Enrei P — Google review
The Old Bazaar in Shkup is simply phenomenal. The variety of shops, traditional craftsmen, and inviting restaurants is truly impressive. Walking through its narrow streets feels like stepping back in time, as if the modern world briefly fades away. This place isn’t just historically significant — it also carries the unmistakable cultural heritage of the Albanian people. A visit is always worth it.

Belgrade Fortress

Fortress
Sights & Landmarks
Nestled atop a dramatic ridge, the Belgrade Fortress, also known as Kalemegdan Park, is an essential starting point for any exploration of this vibrant city. This historic site not only boasts stunning views over the confluence of two rivers but also serves as a sprawling park filled with lush greenery. The fortress itself is divided into Upper and Lower City sections, each brimming with attractions like the iconic Victor Monument, Military Museum, Nebojsa Tower, and Saint Petka's Church.
Excellent spot to explore, discover and stroll. Get those steps in because you could easily do 10,000 just exploring the citadel alone. Add in other amusements like the museums, medieval sports and restaurants and you could make a fun day of it
Chris B — Google review
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

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.

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

Petrovaradin Fortress Walls Viewpoint, also known as "Gibraltar on the Danube," is a well-preserved citadel towering over the river. It was constructed between 1692 and 1780 using slave labor and has held notable prisoners throughout history. The fortress offers stunning views of Novi Sad and is home to the EXIT Festival. Visitors can explore tunnels within the complex for a unique experience, but should be cautious not to get lost.
A breathtaking place to see. The largest fortress in Europe that was according to my guide. On top, there are a lot of places where you can take a memorable picture that will last a lifetime. One of my favorite is taking pictures of the beautiful view of the country. The picture that I had on this place is the best. If your going to visit Serbia makes sure to add this to your itinerary. On the top of this there are restaurants and cafes if you suddenly feel of eating. Buying Souvenir is not gonna be a problem in this country because there are a lot vendors at the side of the street or parks where you can buy something from your friends and family. This place has no entrance fee needed it’s for free. From the city of Belgrade it takes around 1hr by car. Enjoy!

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.

The Tunnel of Salvation, also known as the Sarajevo Tunnel, is a significant historical site located in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Constructed during the Bosnian War in 1993, it served as a crucial link between the besieged city of Sarajevo and Bosnian-held territory outside the Sarajevo Airport. This underground tunnel played a vital role in providing essential supplies and humanitarian aid to the city while enabling people to escape from the conflict.
An amazing museum where you can learn about tragic history of Sarajevo siege. The location is a bit out of the city, so better to come when you just arrived or going to the airport. They accept only cash for tickets.

Lake Hévíz is a large thermal lake located just two hours away from Budapest, making it an ideal destination for a romantic getaway. The lake offers alleged health benefits due to its warm waters and is surrounded by an indoor/outdoor spa with various services. In addition to the lake, the town of Hévíz boasts impressive museums, vibrant markets, a historical old town, and a variety of dining options.
Cool thermal lake, yesterday was fabulous, outside temp 16, water temp 26, perfect. Sparkling vine in a bar is a must. Around 2 hr drive from Zagreb. Excellent place to spend a weekend. Fair prices.

World’s largest swimmable natural thermal - it’s fun for a couple of hours. Trees provide some shade. Cards accepted for entry but need a cash deposit for swimming floats - worthwhile to aid a relaxing dip. We found that the water had a soporific effect and led to a great night’s sleep!

Lake Heviz is a place where people seek health in a thermal lake rich in minerals. You won't feel the benefits after just one visit, but it's interesting to see. The changing rooms weren't very clean, and you need to bring slippers.

Update. Nice atmosphere and buildings although a bit undermaintained. For me it was good but my girlfriend with psoriasis had a lot of issues with her skin after bading the water for 1 hour. Hurted for hours. BUT: one day later it was way better than before. Didn’t expect that.

The lake is truly healing; after one session, you notice a relaxing effect, and after several sessions, it's already therapeutic. The infrastructure is very convenient, with everything you need. It's a quiet, nature-filled retreat – just perfect. Unfortunately, the main bathhouse building is closed, but despite that, there's enough space for everyone. I especially liked that they offer water gymnastics and stretching there.

What a joy this lake is! It's the largest swimmable thermal lake in the world. Its temperature is ideal, and the effects on the body are felt after a few days. Joint pain disappears as if by magic, and the skin is soft. Swimming among the water lilies, with swallows dancing overhead, is a dream. The conditions are excellent, very well organized, and the price is decent. The mud treatment is a plus that we highly recommend. Magical! We hope to return one day... We would have liked the staff to be a little more friendly and welcoming, and a better communication in English ;-)

This is a lovely thermal lake which also is huge. Everyone gets an armband that also gives you a personal locker for your belongings. Note that you can not pick any locker you have to blip the armband at the screen when entering the locker room and then you are assigned a locker. I recommend going around the lake to the "relax" section where there are a lot fewer people and a much more calm setting. The lake is quite warm so do not expect to get cooled down on a warm summer day.

Plitvice Lakes National Park

Mentioned on 
+125 other lists 
National park
Nature & Parks
Plitvice Lakes National Park is a stunning destination in the heart of Croatia, known for its picturesque lakes, alpine forests, waterfalls, and caves. It's an ideal place for romantic getaways or family adventures. Couples can enjoy enchanting lookouts, romantic walks along the trails with the soothing sounds of waterfalls, and a stay at Jezero Hotel followed by a romantic dinner at Licka Kuca restaurant.
Plitvice Lakes National Park is one of pure, awe-inspiring beauty. The 16 lakes, connected by countless waterfalls and cascades in stunning turquoise-blue hues, are a true paradise. Walking on the wooden boardwalks allows you to get close to the water, feel the mist of the falls and see almost to the bottom of the lakes. It's an absolute must-do for any nature lover. Important points on the trails and walking conditions: The park offers a variety of routes (like C, H, F, E etc.) that combine walking, a boat ride on Lake Kozjak, and use of a shuttle. Most of the walking paths and boardwalks are very narrow, slippery, and sometimes uneven, and the park gets extremely crowded, therefore in my opinion the trails are not suitable for baby strollers or wheelchairs, also - access is difficult for people with walking difficulties or seniors who require stability. Recommended to wear comfortable walking shoes with good grip. Tickets: Recommended to book tickets online in advance for a specific time slot and entrance (1 or 2), as the daily visitor capacity is limited and tickets sell out quickly. It's best to arrive as early as possible (right at opening time) to avoid the biggest crowds. Paid parking is available at both entrances (make sure to park at the entrance for which you bought your ticket). Along the paths, there are several rest points with WCs and some places to buy food, but it's a bit pricey, so you can bring some water, sandwiches, or snacks. In summary, this is an amazing natural wonder that is worth every effort.

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.
Chantal L — Google review
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.
Gahwin R — Google review
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.
M.pepers — Google review
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.
Mat B — Google review
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.

Pula Arena

Mentioned on

Amphitheater
Sights & Landmarks
Pula Arena, a massive Roman amphitheater in Pula, is a major tourist attraction. Built in 27 BC, it boasts well-preserved four side towers and three architectural orders. Visitors can explore the viewing seats where gladiator fights were once watched and then venture into the underground passages used by gladiators. The arena could accommodate up to 20,000 spectators and is one of the six largest and best-preserved Roman arenas still in existence today.
Absolutely breathtaking! The Pula Amphitheatre is one of the most impressive Roman monuments I've ever visited. It's incredibly well-preserved and offers a fascinating glimpse into ancient history. Walking through the arena and underground passages feels like stepping back in time. The views from the top are stunning, especially at sunset. Highly recommended for history lovers and anyone visiting Istria.

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.
Matthias — Google review
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.
Nataliia S — Google review
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.
Game G — Google review
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.

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.
Amelita L — Google review
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!

Bled Castle

Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Museum
Bled Castle, a clifftop fortress dating back to the 11th century, stands proudly overlooking Lake Bled. Originally built in 1004 by Emperor Henry II, it was later inhabited by the Bishops of Brixen for over eight centuries. The castle has undergone renovations and expansions throughout the Middle Ages, including the addition of a chapel and other structures. Visitors can explore its museum and partake in various activities tied to the castle's history for an entrance fee.
Small castle view amazing views. Amazing views. Castle itself is rather small but the vibe is great. You really get the feeling of medieval times. There's also great view over the island in the middle of the lake. Went there 2 times in one day: first in the morning, just to tour around, no line, very few people. Easy to get around. Second time went for the dinner in the restaurant that is located in the castle. Sunset over the lake and even less visitors. Restaurant offers inside and outside seating depending on the weather. Views are amazing for both options. Everything is clean and cozy. Really recommend!
Margus M — Google review
The climb up to this castle is pretty steep, and tickets aren’t exactly cheap. If you don’t plan on actually going inside, it might not be worth the effort, since you won’t really get any accessible viewpoints from the top without paying for entry. We had already visited plenty of other spots in the area, so we skipped it this time – maybe next visit. Still, feels like the tickets could be priced a bit more reasonably.
Karol K — Google review
Went to Bled castle on an organized trip, so I was already sorted for the tickets. The main attraction of the castle are the views on the lake, which are quite spectacular. There is a small museum with the story of the castle and of the lake (including the island), a restaurant, toilets and also a souvenir shop. Overall we spent 1h here which I think was appropriate to take photos and explore the museum.
Andrea L — Google review
A really interesting and almost mystical medieval castle. No long waiting lines — entry is quick and easy, whether you pay in cash or digitally — and suddenly you’re standing right inside history. At the top, there’s a cozy café where you can enjoy a coffee and a slice of cake, which I can honestly recommend. Sitting there with your coffee and cake, looking down at the lake far below, you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. You can see the boats on the water and the mountains all around — the panorama is absolutely stunning. After that, you can take a short walk through the castle, visit the small museum, explore the souvenir shops, or taste and buy local honey and wine. Toilets are available, and there’s parking right in front of the castle, though it’s a bit pricey at around 3 € per hour. Families can get a family ticket, which is a bit cheaper. We ended up spending almost the whole day there because it’s simply beautiful — peaceful, full of history, and absolutely worth a visit. Definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Bled.
Andre B — Google review
The castle is very well preserved (it is worth paying for the access) and offers a very beautiful view over the the lake and the island. On a personal note, I think it is more spectacular on the inside. It is the best way to end a nice walk around the lake.
Bogdan B — Google review
No drones allowed. So I don’t know how people get the arial shots. Guttenburg print press shop on site where you can customize your own print. Honey shop where you can have a honey tasting. And a fine dining restaurant where, if you reserve, can have free entrance to castle included. The castle is a fantastic vantage point to see and photograph Bled Island. However if you go late in the afternoon the sun will be in your face and the island will be in the dark.

Stunning views, well worth the steep walk! The castle offers breathtaking scenery over lush green landscapes. We had a lovely meal at the restaurant—great food and excellent service. A must-visit spot in Bled!
Grant H — Google review
I walked up to Bled Castle from a bath by Lake Bled. It took around 10 minutes and was mostly smooth gravel or stairs, very easy to navigate (some people were going up with prams). The castle itself is amazing. You pay to enter (16 euros at the date of my visit) and can go to various viewpoints, the museum and buy drinks and snacks to enjoy overlooking the lake. Although in peak summertime, I arrived around 8:30 (it opens at 8am) and it was so quiet meaning I could take all the pictures I wanted, wander around, and grab the best seat to chill for a few hours.

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.

Soteska Vintgar

Outdoor Activities
Hiking Trails
Soteska Vintgar, discovered in 1891, is a 1.6-km gorge with a 500-m span of bridges and galleries. It's a popular spot that can get crowded with tourists, but it's worth the visit. You can even bike there from Bled in about 25 minutes. The wooden walkway crosses over the rapids of the Radovna river for almost a mile, offering stunning views in all weather conditions.
The gorge is wonderful, path is well maintained and secure (you need to wear a helmet). Please be aware that access is regulated via an online ticket service (you can also buy a ticket at the Parking 1 but not at the entrance!). They let you in exactly (!) at the minute printed on your ticket, not a single minute earlier (we tried). The gorge is 1.6 km and easy, the way back to the entrance is a lot longer. You have the choice of either a mountain path (alpine) or a more covered one (forest) which is also slightly shorter. We took the forest one as the sun was strong, a good choice though notice that the last half of the way back is without cover to protect yourself from the sun. All in all a worthy trip. Park a Parking 1 for free as the parking at the entrance costs 10 Euros otherwise!
Andreas W — Google review
Amazing experience but plan ahead! Vintgar Gorge is absolutely stunning and definitely worth a visit! I highly recommend buying your ticket online in advance, it saves a lot of time. If you’re coming by car, parking is free, but be careful: the first parking lot is paid and doesn’t belong to the gorge. Drive a bit further to the second parking area, where staff will guide you where to park. From there, an electric shuttle bus runs every 20 minutes and takes you directly to the gorge entrance (cars are not allowed beyond this point, only motorcycles or bikes). ⚠️ Important: your ticket is only valid for the 20-minute time slot shown on it, the gate opens only during that time! 💧 There’s also a free restroom available at the entrance. All in all, very well organized and the nature is breathtaking, a must-see when visiting Bled! 🇸🇮💚
Bud S — Google review
Nice atmosphere and worth of visiting. Tickets required. If bought in advance through the internet, you can park directly at the entrance. If you want to buy tickets on site, you need to drive couple km back to the central parking where the ticket office is located. From central parking free shuttle would drive you at the entrance...

We did the full round trip at Soteska Vintgar and loved it. From Bled we took the bus to the Vintgar starting point, and after the walk we returned to Bled with the same bus - included in the ticket price. Tickets for the trip can be bought online. Buses run every 15–20 minutes, and you can also start from the Vintgar parking if you come by car. The whole experience took around 3 hours. The trail goes along the river, through the forest and meadows. The gorge is stunning, with wooden paths above crystal-clear water and the sound of the river all around. Peaceful, fresh, and absolutely worth the visit.

Very beautiful gorge! We took the guided tour which is available everyday at 4 pm. Highly recommend taking this tour if you would like to listen and understand a bit of the history of the gorge. Our guide Domen was very kind and helpful. He took us through the longest but most beautiful trail through the gorge. The trail has a bit of an incline climb but the absolutely worth the view if you are up for a little hike. He also got some Slovenian herbal tea for us to have after the hike which was very thoughtful 😊

The gorge is beautiful and a great experience, also for children. It’s important to spend some time reading the website beforehand to understand how to get there, the different route options, and other important details. It’s a very organized site, and preparation really helps to make the most of the visit. For families – you can pick up a booklet with activity accessories for kids at the entrance booth. Most of the activities are set along the return trail through the forest and the scenic viewpoint over the valley pn the way back. Our kids (ages 9 and 6) absolutely loved this experience! At the end, they received a small souvenir. We completed the trail in about two and a half hours and walked fairly quickly because we were worried about missing the last bus back to the parking area at the end of the day (buses run until 20:00, then shuttle vans until 21:00 – we visited in July). On the way back, as you exit the forest, there’s a restaurant with a well-maintained playground. It looks like a great place to stop, but unfortunately, we didn’t have time because we were in a rush.

Unity of Italy Square, or Piazza Unita d'Italia, is a breathtaking expanse that proudly claims the title of Europe's largest seafront square. Nestled in Trieste, this grand public space offers stunning views of the sea and is surrounded by impressive architecture and charming cafes. The square showcases an elegant blend of Austro-Hungarian design and modern civic pride, making it a focal point for both locals and visitors alike.
✨ One of the most beautiful and majestic squares in Europe! Located right by the Adriatic Sea, this place offers a truly unique atmosphere. The architecture is stunning — especially the city hall facade, which looks incredible, especially when lit up in the evening. The square is clean, spacious, and perfect for a relaxing walk. There are plenty of cafés and restaurants nearby where you can enjoy the view with a cup of coffee. Absolutely a must-visit spot in Trieste for photos and unforgettable moments! 🌊🏛️

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.

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.

I brought five kids over two different weekdays: one a textbook perfect hot summer day, and the other cloudy, moody, and sprinkled with morning rain - the kind that scares off more than half of the bookings. And let me tell you, my dear friends: that rainy, "don’t go" day was the best one. Fewer crowds, zero lines, no elbow fights for floaties - just pure water-slide bliss. If you’re reading this trying to decide when to go, here's your tip: go when the clouds show up. Trust me. A little drizzle never hurt anyone (you’re wet anyway), and it might just give you the best day of your vacation. Now, spoiler alert: as an overgrown, oversized, and fully aged-up kid, I may have caused a few joyful physics experiments on the slides - the kind involving mass, acceleration, viscosity, and splash radius. You don’t need a science degree to understand it, but a little imagination helps. And no, I wasn’t the only adult re-living childhood at 40 km/h in a double tube. It was glorious. The place is stacked with attractions: high-speed slides, gentle splash zones, float rivers, inflatable madness, and "non-sliding" water features for lazy retirees. There’s something for everyone - whether you're five or fifty-five. You won’t need many words once you scroll through the photos and videos here. The smiles say it all. But something else deserves the five stars: the staff and management. Even though many of them are young, seasonal, probably not trained at hospitality schools, they are genuinely kind, helpful, present, and make everything feel smooth and safe. No forced smiles. Just good people making your day better. That counts. Now - kids don’t write reviews. And if they did, they wouldn’t care about the next bit. But if you’re still reading, wondering "Is it worth it?" - stop. It absolutely is. Book it. Pray for light rain A few gentle tips for the management (from the adult who pays for the tickets): Even though the food is decent, it feels like it’s not. A little love in presentation, a friendlier ordering process, and some signage showing where other food options are (without a scavenger hunt) would go a long way. And while the kids are here for splashing, I’m here for flavor. Give us something a little special too - maybe a grill corner, a salad bar with real forks, or just one item that says: Hey adult, we see you! Still - bravo. You’ve built something joyful. We’ll be back. Possibly wetter, possibly louder, definitely happier.

We visited Istralandija on a Tuesday in September during the off season and had a wonderful time. The park is very clean and offers a wide variety of water slides. Since it was a cloudy day and not peak season, there were very few people which made the experience even better. The slides include popular types such as rocket, free fall, and the more intense ones often called back breakers, along with fun rides that use float

We visited Istralandia with our two small children (4 years old and 4 months old). Unfortunately, a neighboring sun umbrella—left unattended—was blown over by the wind and hit my wife. One of its exposed metal rods broke loose and left a mark on her leg. Immediately after it happened, we called a nearby staff member for help, but he reacted angrily and pushed the umbrella about 20 cm aside with visible frustration on his face before walking away. Because of this, we asked to speak with the manager, Danijel Lucic. Unfortunately, his response was arrogant and dismissive. He said that “he can’t control the weather” and refused to replace the dangerous umbrella. Additionally, some umbrella bases appear to be too small, making the umbrellas unstable even in light wind. We noticed this happening with several other guests’ umbrellas as well. This kind of attitude and lack of preventive safety measures is unacceptable in a family-friendly water park. Safety should always come first—especially with so many small children around. We expected more responsibility and care from the management. Sadly, we’re disappointed with how the situation was handled.

Went on a grey afternoon & pretty much had park to ourselves! Kids were done in just over 2 hours! They loved it! But why charge €3 on top of the hefty entrance fee for parking, & then another €6 for a locker!!

Very nice water Park.clean area but dirty bathrooms.the Changing cabins outside were smelling strong Urin There was no waiting Que at the entry even though we were there on Sunday The food Price and variety was really Ok At the entry they Charge 9€ for bed and umbrella and 3€ for Parking which is absolutely unnecessary as the Parking is open for all and there is no Control if you have Ticket or no and same as Beds ,they were many beds Occupied without Ticket and no body was Controlling it . In total we had a great time and we will definitely visit again.

I visited a year later and I am changing to 5 stars. The food is still water park food, but new items and better quality. The park is really clean. The new grassed area is fantastic also. Bring towels and remember no cash. Excellent place to visit …………….. The water slides are great. The seating is average, lots of umbrellas that don’t work and generally not that well kept. The food is edible but best avoided. Bring a credit card as no cash can be used inside.

Nice for kids! There is a pirate-themed area for younger kids, a s well as pools. For older (higher ones) there are plenty of water chutes and slides. The food is of the average amusement park variety and quality. Picnic areas and gazebos are available, lots of shade on one side of the park

Catholic cathedral
Sights & Landmarks
St. Stephan's Cathedral, a Baroque Catholic cathedral designed by Carlo Lurag, is a sight to behold with its gilded pulpit and frescoes by Tencalla. The cathedral houses the largest Catholic Church organ in the world, boasting an impressive 17,974 pipes and 233 stops. Visitors can enjoy organ concerts that showcase this technical marvel while admiring the stunning paintings on the ceiling, altar, and statues inside.
So beautiful. We attended a Christmas concert here and candidly there's nothing that has or will top this experience. It was wonderful. Cathedral is historic and humbling to think how many people have worshipped here through the centuries. We all loved it.

The cathedral has the most beautiful baroque ceiling work. A true spectacle. It's said to have the largest pipe organ ion the world. A concert is spectacular. Walking through the old-fashioned German town is fascinating. The Rhine recurringly floods halfway up the streets. Side streets are cobbled & decorated by local artists.

The Cathedral of Passau, also known as St. Stephen's Cathedral, is a stunning Baroque church located in Passau, Germany. It is famous for housing one of the world's largest cathedral organs, with over 17,000 pipes, making it a major attraction for both architecture and music lovers. The cathedral's interior features elaborate frescoes, richly decorated stucco work, and impressive vaulted ceilings. Situated at the confluence of three rivers—the Danube, Inn, and Ilz—it offers a picturesque setting that enriches its historical and spiritual significance.

The cathedral was under construction the time we were there, according to our guide St. Stephan is always under construction, it’s all depends if they have the funds or not. Even with a big crane inside you can tell the artwork on the ceiling is very impressive.

It is a huge cathedral with some of the highest ceilings i have seen in Europe. Seems this place was not destroyed by WW2, thankfully. It is a magnificent structure at the highest point of Passau.

They advertise the midday concert as the unique experience of listening to the biggest pipe organs in the world. We bought tickets for 6 euro each and then at the concert it turned out that the organs have been removed from the church for renovation (and will be away for 2 years!) so all we had was a concert of small mobile organs which was definitely not enough for a big church like this one. The concert was disappointing and it was not fair that they didn’t tell us (and other 300 people) honestly in advance. After the concert the ticket booth was already closed so there was no one to talk to. Good business concept for the church, disappointment for visiting people.

Tre Cime di Lavaredo, a set of three renowned peaks in the Sexten Dolomites, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its hiking routes and World War I fortifications. The area offers stunning natural beauty and tranquility, making it an ideal destination for a peaceful holiday immersed in nature.
Amazing experience. Recommended to those who want to make the hike to arrive early in the morning (summer days) to avoid the heat... Great views... The level of difficulty depends on your goal... I've reached the cave, and for sure, it's *not* a family hike...

Amazing place truly. Unbelievable mountain views. One of the best hikes. I wanted to do the cave view, but storms were rolling in so returned, but I've heard that the cave view is also amazing although a steep hike to reach the caves.

Beautiful scenery and insane views! One of the greatest hikes in the Dolomites. Some tips; book a parking slot the day before! We took the bus from the main parking (10 euro pr person both ways) and parking for a van was additional 20 euro for the full day. Parking for a van from the starting point is 60 euro, but needs to be booked in advance. The trails are easy and durable for most people, kids and olders. Depending on the route it’s very accessible. We took a round trip wich was around 4 hours but spent the full day there in the sun ☀️

I finally made it! Hiking here was absolutely incredible. I came in early October 2025, and the snow had already started, which made the trek quite challenging in some spots. But the view I saw was truly superb and stunningly beautiful.

My experience was good. The views were incredible — the road going up was steep, tricky for a Fiat hybrid. The top of the mountain looked at like the end of a stage of the Tour de France.
Matt W — Google review
I’ve heard that the hike is incredible if you have the stamina to go all the way to the end. However, if you only plan to walk a kilometer or two and then turn back, it’s not worth it. Instead, I recommend taking the hike from the restaurant’s lower yard to trail 117. It’s stunning and only about a 30-minute walk to the destination, where you can take photos, and about 25 minutes back.
KOTKALLE O — Google review
A great walk that is so easy you can enjoy it even with smaller children. There are huts with refreshments along the way, so you don't have to carry so much in your backpack 💪 The views are spectacular and the great thing is that the trek is a circuit around Tre Cime, so you don't go the same way 😉 I recommend booking parking in advance. This way you can take your car to the start of the hiking trail 🤞

Absolutely crowded, but absolutely beautiful. I did the 101/105 circuit, some sections are very steep, but nothing was technically challenging. No climbing, no ropes. Paths are wide enough so 2-4 people can walk next to each other. No issues with 2-sided traffic

Pragser Wildsee, also known as Lake Braies, is a stunning alpine lake nestled in the South Tyrol region of Italy. Surrounded by majestic mountains, its turquoise-green waters create a picturesque reflection. The area offers climbing opportunities and is famous for its appearance in the Italian TV series 'Un passo dal Cielo.' Visitors can enjoy the historic hotel nearby and indulge in dining experiences while taking in the breathtaking views.
Lovely place to visit, beautiful water. Winter time is great to go to avoid large crowds, summer the lake is packed, you can best most of the crowd in the spring/summer months by going very early but shops will not be open.
Alex B — Google review
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.
KOTKALLE O — Google review
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'.

It is of rare beauty, once you get there you will want to come back every year. The focal point is Ortisei, an earthly paradise. From Ortisei you can take the cable car and go up to a place where you can see all the mountain peaks in the area, it is something special. The languages ​​spoken in the area are German and less Italian, but you can also manage with English. The food is very good as a result of the combination of the above.

Val Gardena for ski is in my top3 in Europe (been to 5 resorts in Dolomites, 3 in Val di Sole, 2 in Austrian Tirol, 3 in Aosta…) - why? You have all the options: long trails like Gardenissima (6km), La Longia (8km acc to my watch), Cir etc. You have shorter runs in Sassolungo part of the resort. You have difficult runs as well as long gentle easy ones. You have everything + one of the most beautiful scenery you can imagine, Sella massif, Sassolungo massif, Seceda, incredible Seceda. Visited few times but always before season in December and no crowds. The only negative- train connecting Seceda part to Sassolungo part is not always reliable. This place every ski person needs to visit at least once ina lifetime

Val Gardena is a slice of Alpine paradise that truly encapsulates the beauty and charm of the Dolomites. From the moment you arrive in this stunning region, you're greeted by a sense of tranquility and natural wonder that's hard to match. The towering peaks of the Dolomites serve as a dramatic backdrop to the picturesque villages that dot the landscape. Val Gardena's villages, including Ortisei, Selva di Val Gardena, and Santa Cristina, exude a warm and inviting atmosphere. The traditional Tyrolean architecture blends seamlessly with the surrounding nature, creating a sense of harmony that is both comforting and awe-inspiring. For outdoor enthusiasts, Val Gardena is a dream come true. The region offers a plethora of hiking trails that cater to all levels of experience, allowing you to explore the lush valleys, serene meadows, and challenging mountain paths.

Amazing place to see especially on a sunny day. We were there with our 7m campervan on a Sunday morning around 9am and there were plenty of parking spaces but got busy rather quickly. You need to pay in the ticket machine before passing through the exit gate. Campers pay 9 eur for 3 hrs which is plenty time to see the sights, get some footage and have a meal as well.

It is a small lake surrounded by pine forests and the Dolomites mountains, offering breathtaking scenery. The water is crystal clear with an emerald-green color, reflecting the mountains and the sky. Easy to reach with no difficult roads. Parking is available at €3 per hour (Oct 2025), and payment must be made in advance at the ticket machine. The area also has convenient facilities such as shops and restaurants, though not very large. Perfect for a short stop to take photos and enjoy a peaceful walk.

A beautiful little alpine lake with stunning turquoise water and breathtaking mountain views in the background. It’s an easy hike, you can walk around it in about 1 hour. Unfortunately, it’s quite a popular tourist spot, so unless you arrive early in the morning, it can get very crowded. Luckily, most visitors tend to stay near the starting point to take photos, so the rest of the trail around the lake is much quieter and more peaceful.

St. Peter’s Cathedral is absolutely breathtaking. The Gothic architecture is stunning, with soaring spires, intricate stonework, and beautiful stained glass windows that create a peaceful, awe-inspiring atmosphere inside. It’s hard not to be impressed by the history and craftsmanship. Even if you’re not typically into churches, this one is worth the stop. It’s right in the heart of Regensburg, so very easy to visit while exploring the old town. Highly recommend taking a few quiet moments inside—truly a highlight of the city.

Massive pure Gernan gothic church that was built from the end of the 13th to the beginning of the 16th century using the architecture of French cathedrals as an example. The inside is dark and has beautiful details like the silver altar. The stained glass windows from the 13th and 14th century are impressive and the most extensive, still preserved, collection of medieval stained glass in the German-speaking world. An interesting detail was a large waterwell with a hoist and bucket inside the church which was used as a secure source of water for the clergy, cathedral staff and cleaning.

The cathedral is truly impressive! A magnificent structure that’s hundreds of years old. I can’t even say whether I liked it more from the outside or the inside. Every day in summer, the organ plays at noon, it’s absolutely amazing! An architectural masterpiece that definitely deserves attention. The only downside is that the exterior has been under renovation for many years.

Learned so much about German history from our Viking excursion to Regensburg Cathedral. Stepping into this medieval masterpiece, we were instantly awed by its towering Gothic architecture and the sheer scale of the place. The amazing stained glass windows, glowing with centuries-old craftsmanship, were absolutely breathtaking. Our guide wove fascinating tales about the cathedral’s medieval sculptures and its historical significance as a key center of Christianity in Europe, making the past feel alive and vibrant. The world’s largest hanging organ was a true marvel, suspended like something out of a dream, and its presence added to the cathedral’s awe-inspiring atmosphere. Learning about the Regensburg bishopric’s influence gave us a deeper appreciation for the city’s role in shaping European history. This cathedral is a must-see for anyone visiting Regensburg—its beauty and stories will leave you speechless. Highly recommend making time for this incredible landmark!

It's a vast general museum, encompassing everything not covered in the art and antique museums. Currently half of it is under renovation, but the open part is big enough to keep you busy for a long time. I focused mainly on the air and space aspect, nice collection of vintage and more modern planes, some of the very first rockets including a V2, and a very nice floor on spaceships. I also enjoyed the section on coding. I checked out photography, printing and musical instruments before my time ran out. It was a solid 3 hours. Overall it is good, not necessarily a must-see if you are first time visitor to Munich pressed on time.

A wonderful place to visit with children. The museum offers a great experience, and the restaurant–café on the roof is definitely worth a stop. The river view at sunset is stunning — the sunlight shimmering on the water creates a beautiful scene. Don’t forget to check out the gift shop on your way out for some nice souvenirs.

The Deutsches Museum in Munich is an absolute gem for science and technology enthusiasts, offering an unparalleled hands-on learning experience. With its vast collection spanning aviation, engineering, physics, and even music instruments, the museum brilliantly bridges education and entertainment. The interactive exhibits—like the giant pendulum, working machinery demonstrations, and flight simulators—make complex concepts accessible and fun for visitors of all ages. The detailed historical displays, including early automobiles and replicas of famous scientific experiments, provide fascinating insights into humanity's technological progress. While the sheer size of the museum can be overwhelming, its well-organized sections and engaging presentations ensure an enriching visit. Whether you're a curious traveler or a dedicated science buff, the Deutsches Museum delivers both knowledge and inspiration in a truly immersive way.

Wow what an amazing place! There was so much you could go everyday for weeks or more to see it all and drink in all the information accessible to you. We had the city pass so access was quick. Thank you from Canada. 🇨🇦

They had everything there. From engines to aircrafts, nuclear physics to spacecrafts, electronics, medicinal technologies, old and new cameras, receent semiconductor technologies, bridges, pendulums, fighter jets, agriculture and husbandry & whatever your cup of tea is. It is a great museum with literally any type of science in it. It is definitely a must go and you would regret it if you didn't.

Deutsches Museum is not just an exhibit hall: it is a journey through how human curiosity, experimentation, and engineering have shaped the world. If you love science or tech—or want to challenge yourself to understand how many things work (from steam engines to quantum bits), this museum will reward you. Even if you’re only casually interested, the famous pieces (Z3, mining, astronomy, transport, etc.) are enough to make a visit memorable. Highly recommend it, and plan your time well. Bonus: Every Monday few free tickets are also offered. Don't forget to see the beautiful skyline of city with Isar river.

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!
Kathy O — Google review
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. ✨
Ivy P — Google review
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.

Great experience. So they have a combination of a Car showroom and the Museum. The Museum is divided into Rooms with numbers marked and different categories of cars and bikes. The entire power train portion has very nice engines to see from Aircrafts to marine, etc. m Must Visit

So, if you like cars its a must stop in München, I would highly recommend you to buy your tickets before arriving, it can get a bit full if you dont plan in advanced, the Museum has free lockers so its also a big benefit. Also in the museum is card only ( weird for being Germany) but a great thing to know. Theres different types of tours available and also shops. In the other side of the museum ( crossing the bridge) theres BMW Welt which is also nice and free

Well laid out and easy to navigate the museum. I bought tickets on my phone as i walked up to the building but there are also koisks inside. There are free lockers for small/medium bags and a jacket. There is a small Cafe with sandwiches, salad, pizza, drinks and coffee. If your thing is cars, motorcycles, airplanes, motors or just BMW in general this is a must see.

Foundation
Museum
Fuggerei is a historic public housing complex that has been in operation since the 16th century and features an on-site museum. The city center, where Fuggerei is located, also boasts attractions such as the town hall, street fountains, Weberhaus, numerous churches, a zoo and botanical garden, a football stadium, Mozart's house, MAN museum, Zeughaus, Maximilianmuseum and Riegele beer museum.
Such a unique and interesting place! It’s the world’s oldest social housing complex, and you can really feel the history walking through the little streets. The apartments are tiny and cozy, and it’s cool to see how people lived here for the past hundreds of years and so. Keep in mind though that people still live there! There’s also a few little museums inside some of the residences that go over the story of how the place started, how they lived, struggles, etc. As well as a bunker that you can explore. Definitely worth a quick visit if you’re in Augsburg!
Kenji — Google review
Went on a Augsburg Fugger Tour. Last stop was the Fuggerei. Have always been curious about it and it's history. Quite amazing that it still exists till this day an age and functioning the same way it always has. Absolutely incredible. The grounds are extremely well kept and just a beautiful part of living history. Must go when you visit Augsburg. After the tour you can also visit tiny beer garden by the entrance.
Philicia — Google review
Really cool to hear about how this social housing was started. The people can live here for €1 per year, and just have to be Catholic, pray everyday, and be in need. It’s definitely worth the €8 entrance fee.
Vintage H — Google review
It was a wonderful experience visiting the world’s oldest public housing. We went on a weekday morning, and the atmosphere was calm and peaceful, which made exploring even more enjoyable. Purchasing the ticket at the entrance was simple, and the site itself was easy to navigate. The area is beautifully maintained, with so much attention to detail that you really feel immersed in its rich history. Walking through the space gives you a true sense of cultural heritage, and it’s both educational and inspiring. I would definitely recommend this visit to anyone interested in culture and history—it’s a unique opportunity to step back in time and experience something truly special.

I visited The Fuggerei on two different trips, once in 2010 and then again in 2023. It's a neat experience with in Augsburg and i definitely recommend checking it out. The history here is interesting for sure and the architecture in germany in general always amazes me. I would recommend tickets in advance, although was not busy when we went. My aunt had picked them up ahead of time for us.
Mark L — Google review
Fuggerei in Augsburg is often touted as a must-see historical site, but unless you’re deeply interested in social housing history, it’s largely underwhelming. The quaint buildings and quiet atmosphere feel more like a sleepy neighborhood than a captivating attraction. The real standout is the WWII bunker—an unexpectedly compelling and haunting part of the visit. It offers a chilling, immersive look into wartime life and far surpasses the rest of the experience. If you’re nearby and curious, stop by for the bunker, but otherwise, it’s probably not worth going out of your way.
Keerthy N — Google review
A fascinating historical place that is definitely worth visiting. It beautifully combines the charm of the past with the spirit of the present. I loved the peaceful atmosphere and the feeling of stepping back in time. The houses and small museums provide a wonderful glimpse into old life, and everything is well organized for visitors. Highly recommended when in Augsburg.

Amusement park
LEGOLAND Germany is a family-friendly amusement park featuring thrilling rides and an aquarium, as well as impressive replicas of German landmarks constructed from LEGO bricks. Visitors can opt to stay at the LEGOLAND Hotels within the Holiday Village, which offers access to various amenities including restaurants, playgrounds, and a high ropes course. The park also provides opportunities for guests to observe the LEGO manufacturing process and create their own LEGO bricks. Additionally, there are water rides that offer an adrenaline rush.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 We had an amazing time at LEGOLAND Germany! The whole family enjoyed it from start to finish. October was a perfect time to visit—great weather and fun Halloween decorations throughout the park added to the magic. There were rides for all ages, and the kids especially loved the playgrounds and interactive areas. One of the smartest features: dedicated play zones near some of the rides so kids can stay entertained while adults wait in line—brilliant! The park layout is very manageable—flat and easy to walk without feeling exhausting. Bathrooms were accessible and food prices weren’t too crazy for a theme park, which was a pleasant surprise. All around, a fun and memorable family day. We’ll definitely be back (got the annual pass)!
Adriel R — Google review
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.
Yonatan A — Google review
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!
David C — Google review
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.

The Spitalturm, also known as the Hospital Tower, is the newest and tallest structure among the city fortifications of Rothenburg. Built between 1360 and 1380, it bears the inscription "Pax intrantibus, salus exeuntibus" which means "Peace to those who enter, greet those who leave.
The walk around the town walls is great to do around sunset, it wasn't very busy whilst we walked the walls and gave great views of the Rothenberg rooftops. Whilst walking the walls look out for names on stones that are set into the walls, these are the names of people from around the world that have brought a section of the wall to help fund the restoration and upkeep of the town. Walking the walls is free to do so well worth a visit!
