Where To Go On Your Honeymoon?





Surely both men and women dream of an unforgettable wedding - with a beautiful dress, a special restaurant, sweet moments, and happy guests. But not only the wedding night should be fabulous, but the honeymoon as well, those few days / weeks you spend with your new life partner after the wedding. I think we should invest more in this period (and I do not mean money), because it is the beginning of the marriage.

So here are some European destinations great for a wedding like in the ... Movies! Whether you are passionate about adventure travel, sensual nights, exotic beaches and a tranquil location, without the tumult tourists make, here are some suggestions to inspire you.

Santiago del Teide, Tenerife

When you say Tenerife, you’re probably thinking of luxury resorts and beaches, right? But you could spend your honeymoon in a village at 1000 m altitude, in a fabulous village that is, on the crest of Mount Teide.

Here you go by local transport, very punctual, and mask the village you will find a small and cozy hotel. The view from the window is breathtaking: mountains down in Ocean and orange fruit load. A quiet, warm and unmatched fragrance. What can you do? Hike in the mountains, boat trips and you can pick some oranges.



Dubrovnik, Croatia
It is a city in Croatia, at the Adriatic Sea and one of the newest and most popular holiday resorts for tourists. If you can go to Tenerife all year round, here you’ll have to come from June through August, if you want to bathe in the sea. But it is also the busiest time of year. So I recommend October for landscapes, artistic photos and a honeymoon to remember.


Genoa, Italy

An Italian town located on the Mediterranean Sea that draws you through the architecture and the tranquility and the beautiful view of the "La Lanterna" lighthouse.
Recommended Period: end of September (hot weather and you do not bump into many tourists). Prices are excellent - you can enjoy the best dishes based on seafood and pasta, and local drinks. Narrow streets of Old Town are very romantic, you can rent a boat for short trips, and since the city lies on high hills, you can take some great pictures.


Naples and Amalfitana Coast

For this I recommend the months from October to November, even if it's hot, but you escape the crowds of Japanese tourists and the outrageous prices. A small hotel in Positano can be all you need - the view is lovely and fragrant air. Here you will eat the best pizza in the world and you will have the most romantic moments of your life.


Tarragona

It is a small town 100 km from Barcelona, ​​where you can get to by train. The train station is right on the beach, hotels are elegant and discreet, the scent of orange trees is in the air, and the beach is excellent. Pine forests, palm trees, beautiful parks and old buildings conjure a less touristic landscape, but you will spend days and nights like in fairytales. I recommend early October for a honeymoon here.

Visiting Rome - The Eternal City

Rome is the capital of Italy. For many, the word Rome has a primarily historical connotation.
Rome was for almost 1000 years, the most important and rich capital of the Western world. After the Roman Empire began to decline, however, Rome was left behind by the Eastern Roman capital called Constantinople.


Thus, today anyone who goes to Rome, first remembers those who lost their lives in Roman arenas, the great wars of the world, and of the fact that they are stepping on a land that can almost no longer fit so much history on it.


If we start talking about the tourist attractions of Rome, then I hardly know where to I start. Despite the fact that Rome was involved in World War I, it was one of the few European capitals that remained standing in good condition.
Thus, today's visitors of Rome, would do well to find accommodations, unpack, and being an unforgettable trip in Rome.


The main attraction is the architecture. The Colosseum was built for 60,000 spectators and is the largest amphitheater in the Roman Empire. Follow the Roman Forum, Pantheon, Trajan's Column, catacombs, Circus Maximus, the Baths of Caracalla, the Mausoleum of Augustus, the Arch of Constantine, the Pyramid of Cestius.

Of course, we can not forget the museums and galleries, among which are the National Museum of Rome, Museum of Roman Civilization, the National Etruscan Museum, Capitoline Museum, Borghese Gallery, and National Gallery of Medieval Art.


Have a wonderful vacation in Rome!
